I have done many recordings using MixPad v.7.77 without a problem. Then, suddenly, it will not work any longer (possibly as a result of a Windows update?)
If, as I did previously, I have the computer Output and Input settings, the MixPad Audio Playback and Recording settings and the Track Audio options set on [Line (2-RODE Al-1)] this is what happens:
1. If I press Record, it records, the cursor advances but it will not simultaneously playback another track. A red bar appears at the bottom, saying "MixPad experienced an error while recording. The recording device stopped receiving audio."
2. If I select a track to record and select to play (not record) a different track with the other track set for recording, I get a pop-up message that says "Cannot open sound device for playing."
3. If no track is set to record, then it will playback a track.
4. If I select the metronome and try to record a track, the metronome will play but the track will not record and the cursor does not advance.
i am not particularly technologically savvy and I would greatly appreciate some help to resolve this problem.
