Solution:

• Reinstall Native App
  E:\INSTALL\AUDIO\Helix Native v1.00 Installer.exe
• Login to Line 6 site
• Reauthorize Computer (if necessary)
  May need to de-authorize existing computer in order to get it to work

• Click on Record Takes for MIDI tracks
• Click on Takes to Layers for audio tracks

Note: This setting records new versions of tracks as you record. If you record in a loop, when the loop starts over a new “take” is created. If you want to create a new recorded version, you first need to delete the current take in the track. The actual takes will still be retained in layers below the tracks.

Additional Comment: If you normalize the current top take in an audio track, that doesn’t affect the original take so if you need to restore it, delete the normalized version and promote the track you want to use again.

• Studio versions of extended-length songs like this rarely get a chance to blend into a cohesive, fluid, final product. Tying all the diverse elements, sections and time signatures together is quite the Herculean Task. Being a musician myself, I’m reasonably certain that this song was never practiced in the studio from beginning to end. So the transitions from one section to the next are noticeably rough because they never had a chance to get polished.
• Chester Thompson (CT) / Bill Bruford (BB): I can’t find the video version of SR that appears on SO. There’s a full-length movie that has the performances that make up SO. I saw it back in the 80s at a “Midnight Movie” event, but I don’t recall who played drums on it (I believe BB did a full tour with them before CT joined the band, so it’s likely to be BB). Phil Collin’s (PC) studio drumming during the Peter Gabriel (PG) years tends to be a bit rigid in spots. On the live versions, the studio versions of the songs really come to life and all the rough edges are polished to perfection. I’m inclined to give CT the most credit for this, because his drumming is so smooth and precise, but I’m sure everyone is involved in this process. Even if some of the versions are “enhanced” (as someone strongly suggested), the end result is nothing short of magical. That’s what happens when you perform songs live from beginning to end enough times. Even live performances with PG while he was still in the band (see the link below) are much more inspired and cohesive. They still lack the near-perfection of SO and Three Sides Live (TSL), but are much more of a finished product than they are on the albums. PG’s theatrics aside (highly entertaining, tho!), his vocals flow much better with the material than the studio versions.

A new one, that is not linked on there is a form to create a new song for the Piano Chorder app

Song Creator

I’m pretty proud of the way this came together. Basically it allows you to create a song like this: Your Song by Elton John

The only “volume” settings I could find (so far) are by clicking on wrench in the transport

and adjusting them in here:

The first thing you might notice about my settings are that they are QUITE LOUD and the reason I wrote this post was because they currently ARE. So, for now, problem solved!

Honestly, there’s a bit of a dilemma here: Playing back the track once everything is recorded will probably work best using a Studio Set for each track and channel the way I’m envisioning it, but recording new tracks while being able to listen to the existing tracks? No easy solution there. You could playback the existing tracks using a virtual instrument so you can hear what you’ve already recorded and record the new track on top, but that seems like a PITA. AFAIK, there is no easy, built-in solution.

I think I need to do some reconnaissance. TBC…
