(Windows OS, Waveform Free v11) - I have my input set as my MIDI keyboard and I have Zebralette as my plugin. The software recognizes the presence of my keyboard and the plugin, as my speakers emit the sounds of notes and different presets. However, whenever I try to record, I get the notice in the subject. Am I missing something? Does anyone else have this problem? Thanks.

Yeah, on the input selector there is a big > to the right. You have to click it until the frame is red and the circle is white - that means it's armed.

Agreed, it might be more intuitive for the circle to be black for disabled and RED for armed, but...

Oh I forgot to mention, I had the track armed as well. Thanks though.

Maybe you have the device Action set to "Monitor live input from this device, but don't actually record".

With the device selected, open up either the Control Panel at the bottom or the Actions tab in the browser and see what "Action" is set to.

Surely there must be consensus by now...

Yup, that’s what it was. Thanks man, you’re a lifesaver.
