Yesterday I spent awhile trying to figure out why Logic Platinum 4.8 wouldn't output any sound when playing files, when it usually would. There was sound when playing aiff files indiviually but not when playing the whole track.
The only thing different in my setup from last week, when it worked, was that I had installed 1GB more RAM on my Dual 1.25 G4. So I took out the RAM, and I GOT MY SOUND BACK! The max RAM that I have in my computer now is 1GB; 1.5GB does not allow the sound from the whole piece to play for some reason... Does anyone know of a workaround to this? I don't think the newer Logic versions have a problem- I have Logic Express 6 but haven't used it with my more-RAM-setup. Any insight on the matter is appreciated. -------------------- |

Not sure why you are having audio playback problems. I have a Silver/Blue G4 dual with 1.5G RAM. I am running Logic Silver 4.x in real OS 9 and I have audio. There was a one time incident when I had no audio which was as a result of pluggin in an usb audio in /out device. For some reason or other that I can't figure out it "killed" audio playback when I have plugged in when in OS 9. That same device works fine in OS X. No doubt you have reviewed Logic's preference window for the audio settings. Have you had your RAM tested? My mac tech guy had to test and re-install several sticks of RAM in my G4 to bring it up to the 1.5G level. He said some ram sticks, although they are OK, just won't work. |
