Default OK, why doesn't PLAY work???

Hi all,

As a long time Vegas user, Reaper looks very comfortable, with many of the little Vegas rough edges taken care of....BUT:

I can't friggin play anything!!!

The transport display says it's [Playing], but the counter doesn't move. Once in a while, after randomly trying different things, it starts playing normally, but then if I add another track, it stops again. For the life of me, I can't figure out what I did to get it to work on those rare occasions when it did work.

I guess this newbie needs a little help...

Thanks,
Steve Maki

I sometimes would get this if I had chosen the wrong driver.. are you using ASIO or DirectSound?

Ahhh, can't believe I missed that, although the fact that it sometimes (though rarely) worked led me away from the driver issue. Reaper was actually set for WaveOut. Switching to ASIO fixed it.

Much thanks,
