explorer no longer plays loops -ACID Product Family

Subject:explorer no longer plays loops Posted by: fr3tl3ss Date:9/27/2011 7:27:02 PM So I open up Acid 7 just like always and I can't audition loops in explorer. It "looks" like they are playing; the play arrow is highlighted, I just can't hear it. Nothing has been changed or added. Checked audio device preferences and it all checks out. Any ideas anybody?

My guess is that you have either reduced its level to zero or routed it to an output you are not listening to. To check this: 1. Make sure the Preview Bus is visible in the Mixer by clicking on the Preview Bus button (if necessary). 2. Click the I/O button (if necessary) to make sure the Input and Output assignments are shown in the Mixer. 3. Select an output for the Preview Bus that is being fed to your monitoring system. 4. Raise the fader for the Preview Bus to a sensible level. Mark
