I tried exactly that on the advice from another list. The problem is that my instrument is not being recorded, or at least is not being played back when I play the song after doing a recording. Also, I pasted in my mp3, and it plays, but I can't find it in any of the tracks. I see a grand piano, my bass track, and a track called "audio 2". I got rid of grand piano as I didn't create it and don't need it, but what is audio 2, where is my mp3, and why is my bass not recording? I hear myself in my speakers (I have monitoring on) so I know the setup is physically working, but gb seems to not want to record it. I was sent a nice gb tutorial which you and others helped to create, but I still can't get this to work right. I know you're a gb expert, so hopefully you can shed light on this. Thanks!
