Hi all When I was using 4.72 on Win98se, if I started a new song and pressed record on any audio track, a dialog box would appear to ask me where to save the audio. At this point I would give the song a folder and a title and from that point on, any additions I made to that song, they would all be stored in that one folder. However, now I am on Win2k and 4.81, everytime I open my autolaod file to start a new song and press record, no dialog box appears and when I check where the audio would go, it defaults to my second drive. I really liked it the old way, has anyone else experienced this change? Does anyone know how to go back to the old way? In my set audio record path window, I have it on song recording path, and the path leads to my second drive. I think I need to get this to say 'no audio path set'. Does anyone know how to do that? Thanks Kim PS does anyone know if Logic 5 is in Australia yet?

To open that window, just press A. (or you chose it from the Audio menu). You can, of course, have a default location that the audio is routed to in your autoload song. I have it routed to a folder called "Untitled Audio" on my Audio Drive. I usually always think of hitting "A" when creating a new song, but sometimes I check that folder to check that it is empty, as it should always be. David, 6am eternal http://mp3.com/6ameternal

In Windows (maybe same in Mac?) Hit "A" on the keybord. Here you can setup global path and/or a song specific path. People use this funktion different in their workarounds. I use to do it this way: When starting a new project I set the global path to a folder with the name = songname on my dedicated harddisc for audio use only. Then I hit A for every new track, and make foldername = track number + trackname in the songfolder Working this way gives me a ok stukture for filemanagement both in win explorer & logic, and for backup on CD Thor Mamen Norway

Perform the function "Remove Record Path" from the Audio Configuration Window and resave your Autoload. Then your Autoload won't have a record path, and thus always ask for one the first time. f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!"

That's exactly what I needed. Thanks again Kim
