Can't hear double-tracked keyboard in playback

I recorded a piano track as a software instrument, and had no problems with hearing it in playback. Then, I duplicated the track and played the same thing. Now, when I try to play through the song, I can only hear one or the other, or neither. When I select one of the tracks and restart from the beginning I can hear it, but as soon as I deselect it, I can't hear it. I have gotten both to play, but only very briefly before one track cuts out. Is this a software bug, or am I missing some setting?

Thanks! I was racking my brain with this! where in
the menu is this feature? Or in the manual?
No problem. The menu is:
View > Audio Scrubbing
But as I say to any editor learning FCP, if you go to a menu item more than 3 times in 10 minutes... memorize the keystroke command. You'll get much quicker.
For a list of keyboard commands:
Help > Quick Reference
(although I almost never find anything quickly in that quide)
Good luck!

  • What do i do if i can't hear a track in garageband?

    What to do if I can't hear a track?

    Which version of GarageBand do you have?
    And what have you tried already to fix it?
    Is it only one particular track you cannot hear, or is GarageBand silent?
    A real instrument track or a a software instrument track?
    Have you checked, if any tracks are muted or soloed?

  • Can't hear second track of Beatles

    I have put the Beatles song in final cut pro call in my life when it gets to the part where the keyboard comes in I can't hear it now when I play the song in Itunes as a mp3 I hear the whole song but when
    I stick it into final cut as a aiff I seem to lose a track any suggestions?

    Thanks for all your help we figured it out, I know you need permission this is just for his own personal use, and half of the song is owned by Sony so you would need Michael Jackson and Sonys permission which takes about 2 to 4 weeks to get for any song which we do through ASCAP and BMI for most of our music.
    Thanks again guys!

  • Can't hear recorded sound during video playback

    I take a lot of videos of my kids.  I have noticed lately that the volume is low or muffled...you can't hear what is being said even if they are screaming 6 inches away.  I thought maybe something had gotten into the microphone, etc.  I recorded a voice memo and on playback i could hear what was recorded just fine at a normal level. Now once I tried to record a video of my kids talking, it played back so low that i can't hear anything and that is with the volume turned wide open.  Not really sure what this issue could be but if the volume works fine on voice memo wouldn't it work the same on video playback?

  • Can't hear myself talk - No mic playback - HS 1000 headset

    I have a Creative Fatal1ty HS-1000 USB headset and I can not hear myself talk into the microphone. I have emailed tech support for the third time and they keep referring me to their help articles on the website but it doesn't help.
    I have no option in the windows volume control to turn up or un-mute the mictophone in playback control.
    Here's a screenshot...

    I have the same exact problem. I also have XP.
    I found the mic volume slider, it's the "Volume" button in the voice recording section. I have it turned all the way up, but still get nothing.
    I installed all the latest drivers, Control Consoles, etc etc.
    I was pretty much ready to give up.
    Update: The microphone can be removed. It pulls straight out. That means, it may not have proper contact.
    That was the case for me. I put it back in, and must've gotten it just right, because now it works. I guess the contacts are a bit touchy.
    Anyway, If you're out there and getting nothing from the mic test, this may be your problem.

  • When burned to a disk i can only hear most tracks through the left speaker!

    alright, i recently recorded a few songs they consist of a looped drumbeat some software and real instruments. I made sure all were panned to the center, but when i listen to it on a cd or on itunes i can only hear a majority of the parts through the left speaker. the part that comes through the right speaker is the looped drum beat. So if anyone has any suggestions or something i just missed please let me know. thanks.

  • No sound in headphones.  Can't hear other tracks when recording.  Need help

    I just got Logic. I have a M-Audio Blackbox for my guitar, and a Midi-Uno for my keyboard.
    I have play and record and hear my guitar. But when recording, it doesn't play the other tracks, so I can't play along with them.
    Also, there is a problem in hearing the sound out of the output, whether it be headphones or the built-in speakers. No sound comes out, even though in the system pref. I hear the beeping to test the output.
    This is very annoying because these seem like elementary things that should work but they aren't.

    I'm just using built-in audio. I make sure the output in the system prefs is headphones, but then in the software I hear nothing when I play the audio. Maybe I have to check the master audio level.
    Thanks for the word about it not being anything too crazy. It can be frustrating when the software doesn't seem to do something basic. I'll look at the master levels during playback.

  • Can't hear live track when playing midi drum track

    This is a really dumb question. I've been away from Logic too long. I'm trying to monitor a live guitar track while I play a recorded midi drum beat. I can hear the midi track fine. And I can hear the live guitar track when the midi track is not playing. But as soon as I start playback, the live track goes silent even though the red record enable button is on and the levels show live guitar signal. It just doesn't make it to the output. If I actually record a region, I can hear it. But I don't want to record, I just want to practice with effects and a drum track.
    I've done this before. What have I forgotten?

    Hear your microphone or instrument as you play and record (monitoring)
    You can hear, or monitor, input from an instrument or microphone in GarageBand while you play and record. When you turn on monitoring for a track, you hear the musical instrument or microphone connected to the track’s input. Monitoring lets you hear yourself play so that you can hear the part you want to record as well as the rest of the project.
    You can turn on monitoring for a Real Instrument track or Electric Guitartrack from the track’s header, or in the Track Info pane. Electric Guitar tracks always show their monitoring buttons, and you can show monitoring buttons for Real Instrument tracks using a menu command. You can use monitoring with feedback protection to avoid feedback while you play.
    Hide
    To turn on monitoring in the track header:
    Choose Track > “Show Monitoring for Real Instrument Tracks.”Monitor buttons appear in the headers of Real Instrument tracks. On tracks with monitoring turned on, the button lights yellow.
    Click the Monitor button in the header of the track you want to use.
    HideTo turn on monitoring in the Track Info pane:
    Double-click the header of the Real Instrument or Electric Guitar track you want to turn on monitoring for.The Track Info pane opens.
    From the Monitor pop-up menu, choose one of the following:
    Choose Off to turn off monitoring. You can hear your instrument only while you record.
    Choose On to turn on monitoring and protect against feedback.
    Choose On (no feedback protection) to turn on monitoring without feedback protection. If the input level is too high, it may cause feedback (especially if you are using a microphone and listening to your project through your computer speakers).
    For an Electric Guitar track, you can view the Monitor pop-up menu by clicking Edit, and then clicking the back side of the amp. The Monitor pop-up menu appears with the input controls below the stage.
    You should usually turn off monitoring when you are not playing or singing. When monitoring is turned on, your computer can pick up output from your speakers or monitors, causing unwanted feedback. Using headphones rather than speakers to listen to your projects can help eliminate feedback.
    If you select your computer’s built-in microphone as the audio input, in the Audio/MIDI pane of GarageBand preferences, monitoring is turned off for all Electric Guitar tracks to avoid unwanted noise.

  • I can see midi instruments in playback but can't hear them. How?

    I have a Macbook Pro and I'm using Logic express for the first time.
    I am recording guitar tracks and playing them back using an M-Audio firewire 410.
    However when I try to do anything with a midi instrument I can't hear it at all. I'm seeing the notes that i hit on the keyboard appear in the track and I can see the light bumping up and down in time to the notes.
    Yet at no point will ANY of the audio emerge for the midi instruments.
    This all works fine with Garage band and Reason and the LE 7.2.3 download has been installed.
    Any idea where I'm going wrong.

    I am having the same problem or a similar problem. I'm running Logic Express 7.2.3. on an 800MHz PowerPC G4, using Mac OS X version 10.4.9. I've gone into Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio and the Core Audio Tab is checked "Enabled." I've entered notes as midi data on track 18 (Polysynth) and can see them on the score screen, and when I press "play" the verticle line moves across the notes but I hear nothing through the speakers attached to the computer. I've also tried the Caps Lock Keyboard and never get any sound through the speakers no matter which Audio Instrument I select. The only sound I've ever obtained from the program has been the clicks when the record button is pressed. I have been searching the manuel and Orren Morton's LOGIC PRO 7 POWER! but have found nothing that works. Any assistance that anyone can give will be appreciated.

  • Can't Hear GM sounds from external Keyboard

    My system set up is a Mac Mini OS X 10.9.5   with 2.3 GHz intel Core i5 and 5 Gb of Memory . A Focusrite Saffire Pro 14 interface.
    I am using a M-Audio Keystation 61es connected via the USB to to the Mac,( and have done for the last 2 years ),
    when I was using it in Garageband it worked perfectly as a 'Plug-in & Go' keyboard and i could access and play both the GM sounds on board or the GB sound Library.
    Since Upgrading to Logic Pro I can only play Midi voices and loops from Logic, although it recognises the Model of keyboard and allocates the relevant channel, it also allows me to see the onboard menu of GM sounds, and registers in the volume of the track a signal coming through the relevant channel, so i know its communicating somewhere.
    But I can't hear ANY of the GM sounds from the Keystations on board library.
    Have looked at all the Midi Settings i can find in Logic and followed some paths suggested in the various Logic Manuals, but still no Noise !
    I am no Techno Head so please! if you know what it is that I am NOT doing , explain it the simplest way you can.
    Thanks in advance for any help that can solve this Problem
    MyKee.G

    As far as I can tell, the M-Audio Keystation 61es does not have any form of on board sound generation. So whatever you heard in Garageband was synthesized by GB. In the same way you'll have to set up a virtual instrument in Logic to generate the sound.
    Apart from that, it sounds like you are not really aware of the difference between Midi controller data and audio data, or at least the way they are routed. The midi controller has no way to send audio to logic through a midi connection. If it had on-board sounds, you'd have to route the audio explicitly to logic using an audio interface or in rare cases using audio over the USB connection that also does midi. In any case, you'd have to route the sound manually. The external instrument plugin in logic allows you to do that easily. But again, I don't think that applies to your situation.
    Cheers,

  • Can't Hear Keyboard

    I'm fairly new at Logic Pro. I just bought an M-Audio Keyboard and I can't hear it when I'm playing. Can someone show me how to set this up???

    Assuming the keyboard you bought is a MIDI controller, you need to assign a plug-in to your corresponding audio instrument track. The basic operation of getting it all up and running is in the "Getting Started" supplement that came with your big box. I suggest a careful look at that to get through the basic set up and introductory portion of working with Logic.
    If you're still having difficulty after that, there are plenty of people here who'll be happy to help!

  • I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.
