Ok, why in the world do I not get any sound out of my
recorded songs. All I get is just static. If you could
please help me that would be awesome. Thanx, Gadget

Okay, here goes:

"GONNA NEED A LITTLE MORE INFO HERE!!!!"

This could be caused by a number of things, for example, incorrect routing of the signal. What
sound
card do you have, how are you recording your songs, what software are you using. Answers to these
questions will most likely help people get you the answer you are looking for.

ok here's the info. my sound card is the creative audioPCI
es1371. all the settings for this card are corrrect. i have
a lot of hard drive space to work with, and to my knowledge
i have everything in acid set correctly. i am recording,
it's just that after it is done recording all i get when i
play the file back (in winamp) is dull static. i can
faintly here the song that i created, and all of the line
in and record volume settings are turned up. i am using
acid on windows 2000, so i don't know if there is anything
that might have to do special. thank you for writing back,
and if you could, would please explain what you meant
by "incorrect routing of the signal". Thank you, Hank

Hi Hank,

A few questions:

1) Do you have the latest version of ACID (2.0d)? This is
freely available from our Downloads page.

2) What kind of file are you encoding to? Are you encoding
an .mp3 or .wav and having problems with WinAmp? I figure
it's an mp3, and if so, please let me know what your
settings are.

3) Instead of an .mp3, can you save a mixed .wav file out
of ACID and then get it to properly playback in another
application, like WinAmp or Windows Media Player?
