Topic: Recording on 8.0.7 not working?

Hi all,

I have just installed PTQ version 8.0.7 on a brand new install of Mac OS Ventura 13.3, have noticed the recording toggle on/off feature is back which is very welcoming - however my install does not seem to actually record anything - the midi window just sits on 'recording' and timer at 00:00:0 but no matter how many key presses I press on the VPC1 nothing else happens (sound of course works)  - anyone else experienced this?

Thank you.

I can confirm that behaviour also in Win 10.

EDIT Well spotted and confirmed - just reported this.

Thank you for the reply and confirmation, at least it seems to be an issue.

I have found a workaround (not ideal but if anyone wants to be able to record before it gets remedied), by doing the below:

Press the 'Record' button and then press the 'Play' button (nothing should happen). Press Record again and start playing - it starts to record normally from here and voila you have a recording.

Well spotted. The most common workaround will be just recording it in a DAW in the first place.
I think that's possibly why it hasn't been noticed by many people. At least not commenting here. Most (not all) will also have a DAW.

Same behavior on linux. Jamiecw's workaround worked nice here.

Yes. And no doubt we will be in 808 state before you know it.

I'm sure they will cure this pretty quickly after the weekend.

Thanks for the heads up, was just about to update

Re: Recording on 8.0.7 not working?

Hi, this should be now fixed by version 8.0.8.

No need for workaround now. See above. It's working already in 8.08. :

Ready for you to download.
