Having trouble

[TheGoose]

When I open Toontrack solo, it says “failed to load MIDI device” and “failed to load audio driver”.
At first i thought it was nothing,but when i try to sample the sounds on the drum interface,nothing sounds. it just makes the animation.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Yes,

you stand on one leg and whistle ‘Old MacDonald’.

If that doesn’t do it, please fill in your system specifications in your profile and/or signature so that we may have a fair chance helping you.
I’d like to know everything from OS to computer specs to if you have an ASIO Audio/MIDI interface.

Best Regards,
John

I’d do that man,seriously…

But just for the record,I’ll try this other way you listed…

But I’m a know-nothing at this whole thing,I don’t really think I have a midi/audio interface,and as for OS,I can’t recall what that means…

as for specs,i’ll find out where to fill it out and get to that right now.

Here’s the specs on the “General” tab:
 
System:
      Microsoft Windows XP
      Home Edition
      Version 2002
      Service Pack 2
 
 
Manufactured and supported by:
            Dell
            Dell DIMENSION DIM3000
                         Intel(R)
            Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz
            2.79 GHz, 512 MB of RAM
 
 
hope that’s enoug info.

OK,

you’re using the onboard soundcard in your computer, right?
This is the problem then, since you need an ASIO compatible soundcard to launch ‘Toontrack solo’.
Which host software are you normally using EZdrummer with?

Host software?
 
Umm…
 
I think its Toontrack solo…
 
If that isn’t,then how do I find out?

[Scott]

Have you been using EZD in any other audio programs (Cubase, ProTools, Sonar, etc.)?

Or did you buy EZD and hope to use it with SOLO only?

I have ACID music studio,but I’ve never had EZDrummer before.
I also have Audacity,but I don’t know if that counts.
 
I don’t know how else to use EZDrummer other than Toontrack solo.

[John]

Well,

‘solo’ needs the above mentioned ASIO compatible soundcard to operate.
Can you load EZdrummer in ACID?

I have Sony Acid Music Studio 5,and I’m not sure how to load EZdrummer with it…
I’ve been looking but I don’t seen anything that shows how.

[TheGoose]

My sound card is a SoundMAX Intergrated Digital Audio card… is that ASIO compatible?

[Scott]

I don’t think so. Most, if not all, internal sound cards (read: built into the computer) are not ASIO compatible.
