Subject:Need Desperate help with Acid Techno 3.0 - No audio when adding loops to project

I just got the content cd for Acid Techno today.
When I add the loops (all the loops are in wav format) to the Project's track view....no event is
added although a track is added that displays the correct name of the loop....and consequently if
you play the project then there is no sound.

I also have Vegas Audio so I experimented with opening these loop in Vegas Audio...I was successful
in opening these loops in Vegas Audio and those events showed the time-varying waveform as well along
with the sound. This was just to ensure that loops are ok.

In addition to that, within Acid Techno, in the explorer (preview) window, I can see all the loop and
also play them from within the explorer view. The loops play fine without any problem.

So to summarize it, the time when I run into the problem is when I add the loops to the project ...the
tracks show up....but no event on the timeline and hence no sound.

Please help.

Thanks

Raheel

Hello-

You need to draw out the events in the right-hand pane. In Vegas, when you add media, it will add an event to the track. In ACID, adding a file from the explorer will add a track, but does not paint in an event, since ACID wouldn't know how many loop-thrus of the media you want, or which portion to play.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,
Joel

Hey Joel,

Thanks a lot for your help. That was indeed the problem. Today was my first day playing with Acid Techno....and I had no idea about the "draw" part. As soon as I starting drawing.....everything worked magically :-)

Thanks again.
