Certain sounds just won't make any noice!

Post by StekarStefan » Mon Feb 08, 2010 8:44 pm

Greetings

Suddenly a couple of sounds (10 or so) in my "project" just stopped making any sound whatsoever. They were working just fine hours earlier and most of the other sounds are still working as intended so its pretty weird. I have tried to change the frequency of the sounds that doesn't work but without any success. I have also tried listening to it on another computer so i guess it's nothing wrong with the soundcard. Any suggestions on what to do?

Sudden Computer Insanity in the middle of a large, complicated project could mean you're running out of hard drive space.

This will take you down to the drive to inspect it, and you should probably error check and defragment while you're in there. Audacity will not work into a highly fragmented drive.

Defrag
-- Right Click Start > Explore > Right Click Local Drive C: > Properties (Used, Remaining) > Tools > Error Checking & Defragmentation

Most computers need st least 10% free space to deal with a show plus Windows. More is better.
