Hello,
I recently downloaded the newest MU.LAB version 3.2.5 and unzipped it and started it - everything without problem.

However, not all buttons I am supposed to be able to use respond to my clicking on them. E.g. the play button does not behave like a button but more like a picture: I see it is there but nothing happens when I click on it. I can without trouble open the virtual piano, but I can not make any sound, neither by clicking on a note nor my pressing a random button of the QWERTY-line even though precisely that has been selected.
When I open a new session, do minimal changes and exit the program, a window pops up (quit and save changes, etc.) and I manage to click on any of the buttons just fine.
I am using Windows 7 (64 Bit). Is it the OS or am I doing something wrong?

is your computer in good shape? do you have an asio driver? do you have a virus? what else are you running when you open mu.lab?

what are the specs of your computer?

I installed ASIO4ALL and now it seems to work!
All buttons I couldn't click on now work.

Still, one thing that bothers me with ASIO4All: why can't I play music from winamp/Windows media player and a VST synth simultaneously?

works for me tho. maybe its your hardware? dont think its asio4all's fault

You mean your ASIO driver lets you play a VST synth at the same time as you play music with winamp'?

Thank you.
That explaines a lot.
Apparently ASIO4ALL is not multiclient.

Funny, though that I used a headset with USB-connection and it was recognised as an audio device, so my Music came out of my ordniary speakers whilst what I was playing on a VST-synth was audible over my headphones.

Is there a multi-client ASIO driver suitable form Windows 7 (64 bit)?

i am able to open many programs all using the same asio4all driver

I am using an onboard soundcard (or chip?) on my laptop.
May that be the issue?

perhaps. at this point i have no idea.

Do you use the default settings or did you click on the screw-wrench to do some tweaking?

I found this:

Is it possible that you have two audio devices?

> DiGiT < · Post by **> DiGiT <** » Fri Jan 14, 2011 1:11 pm

no dont think so.

Oh well, then I might just as well get used to the thought of having to use headset and speakers to be able to play two things at the same time.
Thanks for the effort.
