What is the sound source? Software instrument?

Hey Erik, it's a Software Instrument...

Is the region greyed out? Or are the Midi notes greyed out? If so, you have probably muted them; that is easy to do, as it is the key 'M' that mutes all that is selected. Just select the muted regions/notes and hit M again to unmute.

No, nothing greyed out...tried muting and unmuting, everything's bright and colorful!

Also, you could have soloed a track, muting all others. Are the little m buttons flashing?

No, actually this was the first thing I tried, it acutally plays back fine, everything is audible. Just when you click on notes in the piano roll editor and try to edit them, move them, use velocity tool etc. you can't hear anything.

Hey Erik...yes the out light is on...it's weird I opened up another project and it worked fine...restarted and opened up the project with the problem and now it's working fine also...I've also had more little odd's and end's happening, like the quantizer automatically quantizes to 1/12 note no matter what I selected. I close, reopen and it's fine...strange, I wonder if Leopard will eliminate some of this stuff?? who knows

Hmm, I have Leopard on my G4, and it behaves as well if not better than Tiger. Also, the Coreaudio code has been improved in Leopard.
Leopard sounds better. Nothing dramatic though.

If I select the 'archive and install' option do I have to reinstall Logic and re-authorize all 3rd party stuff? never done it before....thanks

No, no Logic reinstall, maybe you would have to update some 3rd party stuff (IK Multimedia stuff, for instance), but at most you'll have to enter some serial numbers here and there. Depending on what you have, of course.

ok great thanks alot...gonna go for it.

Are you definitely using the pointer tool when clicking on notes in the Piano Roll?
