He isn't using any MS wavetable synth or anything like
that. He said that he's using the TTS-1 template, which
only uses TTS-1 for softsynth sounds. Plus, the TTS-1
template already uses the proper audio routings. He's
definitely got his audio options set correctly, or else
the demo projects wouldn't play.
The reason that he's not hearing anything is because he
doesn't have any of his MIDI input ports enabled in
Options|MIDI Devices. That's how he can see MIDI activity
at the interface, and hear audio come out of the
interface, but can't trigger the softsynths.

Omar you are right, and most likely this has not been
done if the synth is coming out of the system card,
unless he's using a wave table from the system, such as
the microsoft wavetable synth or the yamaha gm/xg
playback synth. Otherwise, Ivan you'll have to go to
options, audio, and set your audio interface as the main
driver, and shoose either wdm or acio to operate in, even
though i believe wdm is selected by default.

if all your recording and playback options are set to
your external soundcard in the "audio option," doesnt the
audio track output of the softsynth automatically get
routed to the soundcard once you insert it? I know it
does for me.

Hi Ivan.
OK, on the audio track that's is associated with the
soft synth's midi
track, make sure you're on the track layer that says
"custom". You do this
by pressing shift and left or right arrow.
When you're on the "Customer" track view, press hold
down shift and press
letter o twice quickly.
This will take you to the audio output section.
press enter on it and use the up and down arrow keys to
locate either the
master or your sound card.
When you've found what you want, press enter again.
Cheers
Darren

Hi Ivan.
Are you using simple instrument tracks or the midi and

Hi.
Have you set the output of the synth's audio to go to
either master or
the sound card?

through external
soundcard
Hi all,
I am experiencing problems getting any soft synth sounds
from the external sound card. I am running CT 8.5 with
an
M-Audio Fast-Track Ultra external sound card.
I have one MIDI cable coming out of the MIDI out of a
Yamaha PSR keyboard and it goes to the MIDI input on
external soundcard. The M-audio drivers are installed. I
am using the headphone jack on the external souncard and
running a quarter inch jack from the soundcard going to
an
external amplifier. I also used the CT triple A 16 track
template which in theory is supposed to play the TTS1
soft
synth when I am running sonar and when I am on the
corresponding track for the TTS1 soft synth.
The interesting thing is that I can play the cakewalk
projects that come with sonar through the external
soundcard and I can also hear the clicks from when I
start
a recording, but I just cam produce any soft synth
sounds
through the external sound card while playing the keys
on
the MIDI keyboard. Also, no soft synth sounds can come
out
of the internal sound card since Jaws uses the laptop's
internal soundcard. The other interesting thing is that
when I press a key on the Music keyboard, a light turns
on
the soundcard which says receiving MIDI input, and the
light blinks as you press the keys on the music
keyboard,
but no sound comes from the soft synth.
Anyone who can help me trouble shoot the above described
situation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Iván
