Loops preview. What did I do?

I can't hear a preview anymore. I'm sure it's something I did it usually is. Anyone have any ideas? I open the browser select any of the loops, left click and nothing. I can drag and drop them in a track and hear them fine.

    Check the Media tab menu in the browser and make sure you have a bus or output selected for the preview.

    Sounds like maybe you don't have a properly assigned preview bus?  When you have the Browser open, click the drop-down arrow next to the Media tab.  From there select Preview Bus. It should give you the options that SONAR sees as available.  Click one (check mark) and you should be in business.  Go to that bus and make sure that you have some gain on it.....  Just my quick thoughts.....  Good luck!

    Open the menu on the media tab in the browser and make a preview bus or synth is defined. Depending on your preferences you may also want to select Auto-preview and/or Loop preview.

    Thanks guys! That worked. I knew it was me! I don't use loops very often at all...so I forget the simple things sometimes.
