How do I configure the waveform view to play from my monitors?

[FattMusiek]

I hate to bother you Chris or dobro, but how do I listen to wavs in waveform view from my monitors instead of my regular computer speakers? On the tracking screen I switch between monitors and computer speakers by going to Options> Device Order. I can't seem to find a place to switch them in waveform view.

Man, not working...The monitors are selected but they play back on my speakers! How odd...

 

[scottboyher]

Where are your monitors plugged in to?

 

[FattMusiek]

1/2 output plugs from my Delta 44

 

[scottboyher]

Unplug your computer speakers if they don't have an off switch.. I am assuming that you have power amp for your monitors of powered monitors?

 

[FattMusiek]

I have Yorkville YSM1p's (powered)

 

[scottboyher]

And you selected the Delta as your playback device?

 

[FattMusiek]

Yeah, on the tracking screen they playback from my Yorks.

lol...see, this is why I don't change my own oil in my car.

Until this thread, I had no idea that you could use this freaking software to route the playback devices, lol.

I typically monitor through 3 sources these days. Mainly, Event nearfield monitors, but also through headphones (out of my soundcard, AND...recently...I hooked up a cheap boombox, but I split it off from my monitors and manually change out the leads when I wanna' hear how the mix sounds "in the real world."

lmao. I see now that I have about 8 outs on my soundcard...

Never...I mean NEVER...listen to anything I say, okay?

 

[FattMusiek]

Ha, well, at least your rig works.

 

[scottboyher]

Ok, one more try.

In the edit view chose Options > device properties > Then look at the pic below

Check that box so in Edit View it will use the correct play back device. MIGHT work..

 

[FattMusiek]

YES! THANK YOU!

Blasted check boxes.
