[QUOTE="mpetrait, post: 611701, member: 50528"] Hello, I just recently started using Garageband and I am currious as to whether or not there is a way to automatically sync up tracks to a master track. I'll give a little more detail on what I mean below. When me and a few friends started recording we layed everything down track by track on Yamaha AW16G Music workstation. We are still using the Yamaha because I'm not always available with the computer when some of my freinds want to record something. So as of now I am initially recording a master copy of all the tracks combined (so that I can time out when the instrument kicks in on a given track) and then I record each track individual so I can add different effects to each of the tracks. My problem comes in when I start to peice together all the tracks to match where each track should begin in order to match up with the "master track". Since I am recording from the box I cannot consistently begin recording each track exactly when it starts.(I have to hit record on Garageband and then hit play on workstation) Depending on the song this usually leaves me with +/- a few seconds on each track. When I begin the process of matching one of the individual tracks up with the master copy I have recorded, I end up with the tedious task of constantly trying to line the track up perfectly. I was kind of hoping that maybe someone out there new of a way to do this automatically or at least someway to simplify the process for an idiot. Thanks [/QUOTE]
