Here’s an odd one I’ve recently had. Record a few audio tracks for a new project, tweaked a few effects, when I go back to the track & play it- while the meters all show its playing- there’s no sound out of my headphones (or I also removed my Focusrite and ran directly through the PC’s speakers with the same result), tried a different project and that played back fine. Finally tried mixing the noiseless project down to a WAV file and again, despite it showing there was sound on the meters- it was silent.
This has happened to a couple of projects and I’m totally baffled. Mixcraft 9, Windows 10, 16 gig, Focurite scarlett 2I2. Anyone any ideas?

Hi,
So, you've got the correct playback device selected in Sound Device preferences, because other projects play right now, correct?
In that case, look to see whether any tracks are soloed. Also check to see whether there's master track volume automation. (Most likely a track is soloed).
If these suggestions don't help, please submit an Acoustica Support Request and send us the project file and we'll check it out.
