Problems with Recording

Problem

Points to check

Action

Can’t record

Could a message be indicating
“Unable to open audio record
device”?

If Media Player or another application that has audio playback capability is running,
Guitar Tracks 4 won’t be able to use the audio driver, and an error appears when Guitar
Tracks 4 is started. Close the audio playback application, and then start Guitar Tracks 4
again.

If an audio driver not being used by Guitar Tracks 4 is installed, try either disabling that
driver or disconnecting the corresponding audio interface from your computer.

Try changing the “Audio Driver Settings” (p. 24)

Dropouts occur in the
recording

Could you have connected/
disconnected another USB device,
such as a memory key?

Dropouts may occur during playback or recording if you connect/disconnect another
USB device (such as a memory key), or switch a device’s power on/off at the same time
that the V-STUDIO 20 is being used.

Are you using a hard disk that is
connected via USB?

Data transfer using USB could get congested if you use the V-STUDIO 20 and a USB-
connected hard disk at the same time. As a result, the data transfer speed for the hard
disk could be significantly reduced. As a storage location for the audio data that you
record and play back, you should avoid using a hard disk that is connected via USB.

Did the dropout occur immediately
after the system started up, or after
it woke from sleep?

Dropouts during playback/recording sometimes occur immediately after the system
has started up, or after it has woken from sleep. Wait for a while, then try the playback/
recording again.

Recording Halts Midway,
and Subsequent
Recording is Not Possible

While you were using the
V-STUDIO 20, could your computer
have performed a task with a heavy
processing load, such as accessing
a DVD-ROM drive or the network?

If a heavy processing load occurs while the V-STUDIO 20 is being used, it may not work
correctly. In this case, stop playback, and then start playback once again.

If you are still unable to play, close all software that was using the V-STUDIO 20,
disconnect the USB cable from the V-STUDIO 20 hardware, and then reconnect it.

Are you using the correct
connector?

Connect your guitar to the GUITAR/BASS jack.

Could you be using a connection
