track turns a dull red color to indicate that it is record-enabled. You should now see
activity on the Track Input Meter when feeding a signal into the Digital Audio
System.
• If you don't see meter activity on the track, try record enabling all the other tracks to
see if any of the meters move (you may have record enabled the wrong track). If you
still don't see meter activity, open PatchMix DSP to verify meter activity on the input
channel. Next, make sure the input channel on PatchMix matches your Track Input
in Sonar LE.
If your input signal is either too weak or too strong, adjust your input source. If you

choose a different input.
Hot Tip: A quick way to record additional tracks using the same input is to simply drag
