Playback through headphones/ recording problem.

Post by Finca » Tue Dec 09, 2008 5:14 pm

Hi there, I've just being recording some extra tracks for a song, listening to what I've already recorded through headphones plugged into my mixer, and recording my guitar over the top. This was working fine, did some production work etc. Then tried playing back again through the headphones and can't get any sound. Am also unable to record anything else. Any ideas? Have tried the playback and recording settings in the preferences section with no luck. Seems it doesn't want to put anything through the USB set up. Cheers.

Hi there, have tried rebooting but still have the same problem. Have tried closing the programme, reconnecting the mixer etc but no joy at all. Any other suggestions?
Cheers, F.

Is your USB device being detected by Windows? Click on the "safely remove hardware" icon and check that the device is listed.
