Subject:recording to hard drive rather than loop

when i record a new track it becomes a loop track
automaticaly, filling up my RAM. when i first got acid
music the recordings went directly to hard drive tracks.
did i some how do something to change the default? this
causes a problem as: after i record a track it is a loop
track, then i have to change it to a hard drive track. but
the track leaves parts in RAM filing the RAM up. so, i have
20 tracks that are assigned to HD, but are filling up my
RAM leaving no RAM for tracks that need it(loops & 1 shot).
can someone explain what is going on here? thanks.

Hello.

That's how Acid works, it's not really a multitrack recording program.
If you have some time, you could check out the Vegas Pro demo. It's
available in the Downloads section, that may be a better tool for the
recordings you would like to create on your system.

Thanks.
