Duplicating a Track makes no sound

[Jose Frias]

Duplicating a Track makes no sound both in playback and recordings, its ruining my sessions, cause i cant punch in, or even continue to record once theres a mistake i would have to do the whole sessions from the top hoping it gets nailed perfectly every take i do, this is becoming very tedious , how can i solve this please and thank you?

I'm not 100% sure what you mean here... do you mean the duplicated track isn't making a sound?   Have you selected events in the duplicate dialog?



If you want an exact replica, you need to check all the boxes ( apart from Link to Original Clip(s) - unless you want that ).

Well, it's probably because you're encountering phase cancellation with your recording and playback.

You sound like you would benefit from watching tutorials on recording audio. 
Duplicating a track is one way but not a common choice for Comping guitar or vocal parts.

Most folks will use take lanes or insert a new track. 

There's also auto punch in, punch on the fly. Learn the software first the information is all here on this forum.
