Problem with recording length in Logic Express

[huynhk]

Hi guys, running into a problem with Logic Express (and similar with Garageband).

The track will only let me go up to about bar 2138... and won't let me extend the track length anymore; problematic because the actual recording of the podcast goes longer than bar 2138. I tried dragging the track out by the rectable box in the bars but it won't budge anymore to the right. Anyone know any solutions?

I live it every week. There are two things you need to do.

1) Change the time signature to 94/4. Logic Express is limited by number of measures. Doing this suggests that there are now 94 beats per measure. Works a charm.

2) Under the Audio>Set Audio Path menu, disable the "maximum recording time" option.

These steps will get you a little over an hour and a half of straight tracking time.
