cant hear playback of recorded audio tracks

[Charles Gillard]

I'm a newbie  recording audio from yamaha keyboard. The waveform appears but no playback

[Nigel Mackay]

Where is the audio track routed to?

What are your settings?

Switch the metronome on and record. Do you hear the metronome?

BTW This is the section for tutorials. You might want to post the question in the Q & A forum.

Please spend some time watching the Tutorial videos. There's a lot to learn and it's very well covered over and over in the videos and the Documantation. Cakewalk isn't a turn it on and use it software. It requires some time to learn the basics especially if you've never used a DAW. 

The tutorials are found Here. https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/35-tutorials/

This guy has what I think are the best no bullshit tutorials https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCESNxzJHzDnCIuRO0RhQLeA

Hey John, 

Thanks for your help. Believe it or not, I've watched a lot of tutorials including the creative sauce ones which I found very helpful. I am investing the time to learn cakewalk.  It's just very frustrating since I followed one creative sauce video and everything seemed to work. I recorded several tracks but came back later and they wouldnt playback.  What do you suggest?
