Dummy Questions

I'm using Jamstix3 and Traktion.

-> If I go to the kit page and click on a drum, no sound is produced. It's only when I hit play in Traktion that anything happens. What am I missing?

-> Same sort of question for the SONG tab. I want to loop one bar and hear it back without having to hit play in Traktion. WHat am I missing - how do I do this?

Thanks,
Thomas

Please do this:

- have Tracktion closed
- open Documents\Jamstix3\jamstix3.ini in Notepad
- under [GENERAL], add this line:

PopupMode=1

- save the file and see if the problem is solved

To loop one bar, look in the upper left corner of the window that shows the drum hits. There is an icon of a couple circular arrows. Hit that to loop the bar so you hear it/tweak it.

Unfortunately that didn't help.

I swear I had this working months ago...
I'm right in saying I don't have to have hit PLAY on the sequencer in order to hear the looping, right?

Rob - thanks. Yes, I've highlighted the loop arrow at the top-left but it only seems to loop if I hit the play button in the sequencer. Maybe I'm missing something.

Also, I can't hear the drum sounds if I click on them with the sequencer stopped.

This sounds to me like you have not got Run Audio Engine When Stopped ticked in options.

Go to options button on bottom left of Tracktion interface and make sure this option is ticked.

operandx has it right - that completely solved the "problem".
So - all solved. That wasn't obvious to me at all so many thanks!!
