Home Recording/Inputs/outputs

Question
I have pro tracks 2.2 that came with my digitech pedal and I've been fooling around on it for a while now. I recently changed my speakers from the rear of my computer to the usb mixer I have. It gave options for inputs/outputs untill I switched it. My computer reads the usb audio codec and has it set as default but I can't get Pro tracks to read it. Is there any mistakes I am making?

Answer
Hey Ryan, sorry man, but I don't know a thing about pro tracks & haven't used a PC in like 10 years now. (Mac Guy) Maybe one of the other guys here can help ya out. If you have any other questions pertaining to recording/performing etc. I'll be happy to help out.
Peace - J.

I specialize in Macintosh recording systems on OS X & am well versed in most of the available software titles relative to the platform. I can answer most questions about home recording in general such as: Mic placement, recording/mixing/mastering techniques, control room set up, acoustics & acoustical treatment & choosing the right equipment for specific recording applications. I do not answer PC related questions, or questions pertaining CD/DVD copying or ripping.

Experience

I have been working in studios for over 20 years both as a recurring artist playing on my own recordings & as a session musician, engineer & producer. I run a Mac based studio from my home, use mostly Logic or Garageband. I'll use Garageband for writing & Pre-Prod & move the project over to Logic afterwards. I also have experience using Pro Tools, Digital Performer, Ableton Live & many others. My preferences are Logic & Pro Tools & as such my area of expertise is focussed in these two apps. I'm also an IT guy, sysadmin & electronics technician so can help with technical questions relating to studio operation & maintenance.
