Prior to recording, make sure that any sound source you plan to use in your recording
session—a mixer, CD player, or microphone, for example—is connected to the audio
inputs of your system and is working properly.

You should also check the hardware settings that are important for recording—such as
the system memory requirement, I/O buffer size, and so on.

For details about hardware connections and settings, see

Setting the Project Sample Rate

You should set the required sample rate when starting a project. The sample rate is the
number of times per second the audio signal is sampled. Recording at a sample rate of
44.1 kHz is recommended for most situations.

To set a project’s sample rate
Do one of the following:

Choose File > Project Settings > Audio (or use the Open Audio Project Settings key
command, default assignment: Option-P), and choose the desired sample rate in the
Sample Rate pop-up menu.
