Are you sure you aren't trying to record to two tracks ? This is typical
behaviour when recording to , say, an audio track and an audioinst track
simultaneously. Look for a number of posts on this subject from Len
Sasso and myself in the lug list.

Also try starting the recording on a midi track during the pre-roll and
then switch to the audioinst track immediately, that should make it
possible to record  OK.
