  1. Good advice, and it came just in time--I was fully prepared to copy each individual track into a new project. I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem, it was frankly kind of embarrassing to find out how simple it was!
  2. LOL, it's true. The DOS-based Calkwalk 2 had free telephone support that helped me set the dip switches on the midi card; Cakewalk Pro was plug and play; and Cakewalk Sonar effortlessly worked with my ADAT lightpipe soundcard. But since I never look at the master output until I'm ready to mix, I probably wouldn't have seen the issue for a while.
  3. That's exactly what it was! I can't believe I spent so much time trying to "solve" the problem. I was so focused on Preferences (which were identical to those of other projects) that it didn't occur to me Cakewalk would reroute the signal. Thank you for your help!
  4. I'm using standard Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro headphones with a 1/8 inch phono jack. Sorry, this is my first post here and I don't know what I'm doing.
  5. Thanks for your help! The headphones plug directly into my laptop using a standard 1/8 inch phono jack. It might plug into the sound card but I'm not sure. I haven't added any hardware, so it's whatever the factory standard is for laptop audio jacks. Every audio source (streaming media, stored audio, system sounds) defaults to the laptop speakers when the headphones aren't plugged in, but all audio goes through the headphones if they are plugged in. But I'm finding that Cakewalk is very persnickety in that the headphones have to be plugged in when starting the app or they won't work. I already knew this, but I didn't know that if you saved a project in that scenario, it changes some setting so you can't use the headphones at all.

  7. I was in a hurry to import an audio track into a song, so I opened Cakewalk and loaded the song without plugging in my headphones. I saved the song, and now I can't get any audio from the project. The audio worked this morning, and the only thing I "changed" was to import a track. All of my other Cakewalk projects play perfectly, and the settings all seem to be the same across the board. I'm totally lost. I've been using Cakewalk exclusively since 1989 and this is biggest problem I've ever had with it. Any advice?
