I have VE Pro Server (build 4881) working absolutely fine on my Windows 7 64-bit machine. But I wanted to test out some instruments in standalone mode and I don't seem to be able to get any sound! I know I must be doing something really stupid, but ...
- I have selected the speaker output in Preferences / Audio
- Windows Media Payer works fine (i.e. I get sound, so it's not that I forgot to turn up the volume on my speakers!)
- Speakers are simply plugged into the green jack socket - i.e. no funny stuff with S/PDIF or anything!
- I checked Preferences / Audio routing (L->OUT1, R->OUT2)
- Playing notes on the VE on-screen keyboard results in movement in the "eyeball" graphic, and the level meters on the left hand side
- Volume slider to right of keyboard is set to max
- Instrument is sent to Master Bus; master bus output is sent to OUT1/OUT2
- I tried the 64-bit and 32-bit standalone player - same results (silence) on both
It all works brilliantly when I do it the complicated way and run the VE server, routing the audio to Sibelius (which runs on a different machine).
What am I doing wrong?
