Audio playback from Pro Tracks

™

has pops and clicks.

•  Try the 

Wave Profiler 

under

Options->Audio

. This seems to fix most problems. Otherwise, try using MME

drivers in the 

Options->Audio->Advanced, Driver Mode 

selection. These are the safest drivers but also

have the most latency.

•  Try increasing the latency slider in the audio settings.

Hands-Free recording on Vx400 doesn’t work or has stopped working.

•  If it was working at one point but has stopped working, try exiting  Pro Tracks and then restarting it (make sure

to save your project).

•  Cycle power to the Vx400 before entering  Pro Tracks or X-Edit.
•  If it has never worked at all, there is a problem with USB MIDI  The most probable causes are using incorrect or

incorrectly installed drivers and/or .dll or a bad USB cable.

•  See the section on driver installation.

I can’t hear audio playback from Pro Tracks.

•  If the ‘Remic’ mode in the Vx400 is active try switching to a different mode like ‘Stereo’.
•  Make sure the faders in  Pro Tracks are turned up.
•  Check that the tracks you want to playback are un-muted.
•  Go to 

Options->Audio->Drivers 

and under output drivers, select 

‘DigiTech USB 1-2 In/Out’

and de-select

everything else.

•  See the section on driver installation.

My Vx400 doesn’t record to Pro Tracks.

•  Go to 

Options->Audio->Drivers 

and under input drivers, select 

‘DigiTech USB 1-2 In/Out’ 

and

‘DigiTech

USB 3-4 In Only’

De-select everything else.

•  Make sure the proper drivers are installed.
•  See the section on driver installation.
•  For an initial track, make sure ‘

Remic

’ mode in the Vx400 is not used.

I can’t get Re-Micing to work.

•  See the 

Re-Micing a Track 

section of this user’s guide.

Pro Tracks intermittently locks up.

•  Close any other open programs besides Pro Tracks. Check "Task Manager" to make sure there are no hidden

programs running.

•  Try reducing the number of plug-ins and soft-synths.
•  Increase the amount of memory in your system.
•  Get a faster hard drive.
•  Put your audio data on a different hard drive from your OS and applications.
•  Get a faster computer.
•  Please refer to the system requirements section.

Where did my wave files go?

•  Wave files all get saved to the folder specified in 

Options->Global

,

Audio Data

.

My waves are low/too high in level.

•  The recording signal level can be boosted or reduced using the USB1-2 and USB3-4 level controls.

Pro Tracks playback is louder than my voice.

•  You can adjust the mix of playback versus microphone by using the Playback mix knob.
