WAVELAB 35 – 798 Troubleshooting General problems Can't create a temporary file • Please check which drive is specified for your temporary files (in the Edit Folders dialog). You cannot use a CD-ROM disk or a write protected drive for your tem- porary files. • Is the drive full? Please select a drive with as much free space as possible. A drive/partition can't be found • Is this volume a removable drive, or a CD-ROM? In that case, is the correct disk really in the drive? • Have you renamed the Volume since you last used the program? A file can't be deleted or renamed • Is the volume write protected on which the file is residing? In that case, turn the write protection off. • Is the file on a CD-ROM? Files can’t be deleted from CD-ROMs. The program opens/doesn't open with the same files each time • This is not a bug, it's a feature! You can decide to have the program boot up as you last left it. This is done by activating/deactivating “Open last window layout on startup” in the Preferences dialog. See Preferences Topics. My snapshots are gone! There are two main ways to make sure your snapshots “stay” from ses- sion to session: • Make sure “Save view settings in companion file” is activated in the Preferences - Wave edit tab. This will automatically save any snapshots associated with an au- dio file. • Use Open last window layout on startup (described above) to make all settings remain just as you left them. The wave isn't styled as when I opened it last There are three ways to save your window styling, etc.: • Make sure “Save view settings in companion file” is activated in the Preferences– Wave edit tab. This will automatically save any window settings associated with an audio file. • Use “Open last window layout on startup” in the Preferences dialog to make all settings remain just as you left them. • Make the file part of a workspace and open it from there. Layouts are saved with the opened windows of a project.
WAVELAB Troubleshooting 35 – 799 Problems with opening files The file doesn't appear in the Open dialog. • Does the file have the right extension? Select “All files (*.*)” from the pop-up in the Open dialog and check again. • Is the drive on which the file resides currently accessible? If you use removable hard disks or CD-ROMs, make sure the right disk is in the drive. Can't open a file • Is the file really a supported file type? • Is it possible to open it in other programs that support files of the same format? If not, it is probably damaged. • Try opening the file in the Media Player application, included with Windows. If that doesn't work, the file is probably damaged. Note that WaveLab carefully checks the file headers: if any mistake in the format is found, WaveLab does not open the file for safety reasons. This could happen (rarely) with some files created by non- professional software. • Is the drive on which the file resides currently accessible? If you use removable hard disks or CD-ROMs, make sure the right disk is in the drive. Can't open dual mono files • Open the Preferences dialog, click on the File tab and activate “Allow opening of dual mono files”.
WAVELAB 35 – 800 Troubleshooting Problems with saving files Can't save • Is the volume on which you are trying to save write protected? For example, you cannot save anything on a CD-ROM. • Is there enough space on the drive? • Is the drive to which the file was last saved currently accessible? If you use re- movable hard disks or CD-ROMs, make sure the right disk is in the drive. • Are you trying to overwrite another file with the same name? If so, is that file write protected? If it is, it can't be overwritten. Save under another name, or remove the write protection. • Are you trying to overwrite another file with the same name? Is that file open? If it is, close it and try again. • To get around all of the problems listed above, try saving to another disk/folder. Recording problems I can't record • Are you trying to record at a sample rate/bit resolution that your card doesn't sup- port? Check the documentation for the card to find out which formats it supports. • Is the card really installed correctly? Try using some application included with the card to see if that works. Also try the “Sound recorder” included with Windows. • Do you have the latest drivers for your card? Contact your dealer for the latest drivers. • Is your temporary files location set up correctly and do you have enough free space on that drive? I can’t hear what i just recorded • Do the meters move when you record? Do you get a waveform in the window? If you do, the recording is not the problem, it is the playback. • Check the Mixer. Do you have the correct recording inputs activated, and are the levels set properly? • If you can't seem to activate the correct inputs and levels from WaveLab, try the mixer application that was included with your audio card. Some card drivers do not react correctly to the standard Windows commands transmitted by WaveLab. • Please check your cables and the devices you have connected. Is there really a proper audio signal coming in to the card? • Have you selected the appropriate recording mode for the recording source? If you want to record an external audio signal through the active inputs on your au- dio hardware, you must select the “Audio card input” mode in the Record dialog.
