Worked! Got the whole thing to record thru my POD device by using the line in. Took some experimenting. I understand now that using the Juno as midi and the POD as a re-route device in let me keep my Juno sounds and record back thru the POD device. Next step is to add the guitar part in PT and reropute the whole thing back, hoping it retains my midi Juno sounds and the guitar. I'll report back. Thanks for all the help. I am starting to get a better understanding of midi drivers/devices and audio inputs/outputs. Makes one think he has to be as much an engineer as a musician!

Now I have my midi tracks. I added an audio track. How can I get all the tracks to play back to record? Depending on the drivers chosen, I can hear either just the midi or just the audio.
Thanks - Bernie

This where a mixer comes in handy so you can hear more than one soundsource at the same time.
That's a whole 'nother routing lesson.
For now, without a mixer, your best bet is to record the Juno to audio so you can use the input for other things while hearing all the tracks.
I'd keep the midi tracks afterwards, just mute them. This allows you to go back and experiment with different sounds later.
To simplify - play the midi to the synth and record the audio from the synth to an audio track for now so you can hear the synth sounds while recording the rest of the audio.

Pro Tip -
In one of the tabs under Options Preferences there is a box to check that says 'always record audio too when recording to a midi track' or something close to that.
If you check that box, then when you record the MDI for your keyboard the program will also record the audio of the performance, and put it on the next available track.
Might save time in the long run if you play it well enough and don't need a lot of editing (which would mean rerecording the edited midi anyway).

Is the track you are recording to a MIDI track?
Is the POD selected as the input device?
This feature has always worked well here, using various soundcards.

I swear you are a genius! I did not have my POD device plugged in so naturally no audio input. Once I did, it did tell me that audio data was recorded and put in on a separate track. As a test I deleted the midi track, unplugged my Juno device and listened to the audio track. It kept the patch I recorded in! Now I can work with the audio data in the original midi patch sounds and add my guitar and vocals.
Thanks so much!!!
Bernie
