Problems & Solutions
Some problems with pops and clicks can be solved by
editing the SYSTEM.INI file in the Windows directory. Look
for a [Vcache] section and add the following lines:
maxfilecache=4096
This should effectively solve the problem. The values for
the parameters are Kbytes of file cache and can be adjusted
depending on your RAM size.
By disabling virtual memory a problem with pops and clicks
or other playback or recording problems can sometimes be
solved. Please refer to your Windows manual for
instructions on how to disable the virtual memory.
As a rule of thumb: If the status bar in MAGIX audio studio
does not indicate any errors during playback or recording,
the problem most likely has to do with the sound card driver
or settings for the sound card.
I get no audio during recording or playback.
If you hear no audio during either recording or playback,
check on the following items:
Make sure that all cable connections are made properly and
that none of the cables is defective.
If the sound card has a mixer program, make sure that none
of the mute options are turned on and that the volume faders
are sufficiently turned up.
Check to see whether you have the proper driver installed
for your sound card. You can do this in the Windows Control
Panel.
If you don’t hear any audio in MAGIX audio studio
generation 6 and would like to check your sound card, use
the sound card’s own sound utilities to diagnose the card.
Also, many sound cards come with their own set of playback
software for digital audio. Follow the instructions in the
sound card’s manual for testing digital audio with the card’s
utilities.
Make sure that your external mixer/amplifier is turned on
and has a sufficient volume setting.
These are the most common problems you would be dealing
with when having audio problems.
Note: The Digital Audio Labs CardD+ approaches
monitoring the recorded signal during the recording a little
bit different than other sound cards. It is perfectly normal
to have the incoming audio signal missing on the outputs
of the card as you are recording the audio.
The CardD+ will not ‘feed’ the audio signal on the inputs
of the card to the outputs during the recording. You will
need to monitor the recorded signal externally during the
recording phase. All other tracks in MAGIX audio studio
generation 6 will play back just fine.
