I Can't Hear Anything In Pro Tools! (3 Possible Fixes)

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

Reminder, if you have Pro Tools "First" this will look a little different as there is not a proper "Playback Engine" window (to my knowledge). Additionally if you are on a PC there are other factors like a ASIO driver that will need to be installed.

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

@Aysha Luzia Penha I'm not as familiar with Pro Tool first, but it looks like there is still a Playback Engine menu. A scarlet should be "plug and play" so presumably just plugging it in and selecting it in the Playback Engine would be the first step. After that check back in with the video to troubleshoot. Good luck!

[@thesprawl2361]

@@ChrisMoroccoSound Hey: I'm just starting out and was wondering what the advantages were for getting a pro tools subscription over the free version? I've got a Behringer UMC 22, an MPK mini 3, a Yeti mic and some Sony headphones(as well as electro-acoustic and electric guitars) so you can see I've at least got a(very cheap) setup. I'm interested in making music that is experimental and probably a bit different, although not necessarily very complex, but I do love as much sonic variety as possible. I like hearing instruments and effects that sound dramatically different. Right now I can't even get pro tools to be audible, but once I do what am I going to be missing without the full version of Pro tools? As a songwriter who likes variety, but who isn't ever going to be particularly competent at the more complex side of production, is it worth getting full fat pro tools?

If i go directly from one audio track to the 1-2 Output the master fader shows no signal whatsoever.

If you would like to send additional screenshots to my Reddit page I can take a look. You might want to check Setup > I/O > Audition Path and make sure that is going to your headphones/speakers. If it is only that plug in you may want to check in with the company as well. www.reddit.com/r/chrismoroccosound/

[@zachiswayposi1]

I use a Focusrite for my input and my monitors just use an aux cable from my computer's out. Whenever I change the playback engine to Built-in output, I get sound just fine, but trying to re arm the track it gives me a message saying that it doesn't have both an input and output assigned. When I go to relink my Focusrite, it isn't available as an option.

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

Ok well I think I see the issue. Right now you are trying to input from your Focusrite and output via your computer (that aux cable), which you cannot do. Simply get some speaker cables and go OUT of your Focusrite and IN to your monitor speakers. This will cause your Focusrite to be both your Input (microphone plugged in for example) and Output (monitor speakers) and from there you will just need to make sure your I/O settings and track settings are proper, like in the video. Make sense?

when I open pro tools it kills ALL sound on my computer, no wavs, no videos, no sound on anything. and of course the program itself is completely silent. tried setting the sound thing and the choices were windows sound and realtek asio but neither of them work either. it should work fine as soon as it is opened but it does not.

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

Yea Windows is a slightly different setup, I hear that Flex ASIO or ASIO 4 ALL will work but that should be true, that driver will take over your machine meaning only Pro Tools will be able to playback sound and not the rest of your machine.

I’m having the same issue, my input and outputs say input 1-2 output 1-2 for my audio track that I imported my beat on. Then on my vocal track it says input 1 output 1-2. I’m thinking it’s something with my input on my vocal track, but I looked on my I/o setup and did everything you said and still nothing. It even says the correct input in there “input 1-2” but for some reason I’m only getting input 1 and input 2 as a interface option

[@Citruussss]

PLEASE HELP I have two options on my PC when it comes to playback engine. Realtek Digital Output and Speakers. Only speakers produce sound out of any application, yet PRO TOOLS playback engine defaults to Realtek Digital Output and no matter how many times i try and change it to my speakers IT WONT CHANGE! How do i fix this its so stupid i change the playback engine to speakers, click ok, pro tools restart and when it boots back up the playback engine is still Realtek Digital Output?!

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

Unfortunately I think that might be beyond my pay grade, I think the Realtek Digital Output is a sound card? That might be causing the problem. If you have the ability to get an audio interface that might be easier. Apologies, this sounds like a hardware/sound card issue.

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

You mean the volume bar on your computer? That sounds normal for it to be greyed out as the audio interface (in your case the Apollo) should now take over control of master volume. Playback engine sounds good, what about the output of your track and I/O settings, is that setup properly to get to your Apollo? Sounds like you are getting sound meters to hit the Apollo. Just a Hail Mary here, do you have a mute button on the Apollo or is the volume turned down? Lastly, where does the sound go after the Apollo? Speakers? Headphones?

[@jetlee3409]

What if there is no cache size option or disk payback option in your playback engine

[@Indianahampton]

I have a question, I am having a problem hearing sound. I have my interface linked up to my protools and have krk monitors plugged in and I can hear everthing fine when I watch videos or listen to beats ive made in MPC beats. But I am trying to record some guitar in pro tools and I cant get anything to come out. I can play the guitar and I see it show up on the levels but after I try to record something I dont hear it. I cant even hear the click track but I see them all on the levels like they are playing. Do you know what I can do to fix this? Thanks!

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

Is this only happening when you are in the middle of recording? Meaning, when you hit record you see waveforms but cannot hear? If so you can turn on "input monitor" which is the "I" next to record and it will turn green. This will allow you to hear what you are recording, while you are recording. You can also try to have a "record" only track, then after the recording drag the clip into a "non-record-enabled-track" for playback. Are you on a PC? Sometimes the ASIO driver monopolizes the sound output of your machine and cannot output from multiple sources. Lastly, does anything output properly in Pro Tools at all? Can you bring in another sound and get it to work? Double check your playback engine and let me know, happy to keep trouble shooting.

[@MassShrooms]

If I am using an audio interface does my input and output have to come from the audio interface itself? at the moment I am using an xlr microphone plugged into my behringer audio interface. I have installed behringers drivers and plugged everything in correctly. I am able to see my sound is working (playback engine: behringer USB) but I want to hear the beat while I record over top of it, and that is where I am stuck. I have tried every output option and even tried the asio4all solution. My only guess is I have to buy a pair of xlr headphones and plug them into the open port marked with a headphone symbol on the audio interface. Is there anyway I can spare this expense and just use my 300$ gaming headset plugged into my computer, I would greatly appreciate any help.

[@ChrisMoroccoSound]

Hey, just want to clarify, are you trying to hear what you are recording while recording? Have you tried hitting the "I" on the track (turns green). This is input monitoring and should allow you to hear yourself while recording. You may have some latency issues at this point, which is a different topic, but lmk if input monitoring helps.

[@MassShrooms]

@@ChrisMoroccoSound negative, I am not trying to hear my own voice just the beat while im recording. (Like when I press record and it starts playing the beat is playing in my headphones.) I have tried the "I" and it shows that my microphone is working properly and if I change my playback engine from "behringer" to "asio4all" I am able to hear what I recorded and the beat but it only plays through the computer speakers and when I try to play it through my headphones it is mute. (the headphones do work) It has been a struggle making the playback engine "behringer" to record acapella. then changing back to "asio4all" to line up my audio recording with the beat recording. I am sure I am just missing a very simple step but I have tried for hours and days. I wont be giving up though. If you have any other suggestions you could bless your boy with I'd be very appreciative.

Hmm, not sure if the cracked version has anything to do with it but if you set your Playback Engine, and check the outputs of your tracks etc. you should be good. What happens if you change playback engine to the minifuse?
