Guitar Tracks 4 vs Windows Vista

I tried to install GT 4 under Vista 32-bit. GT 4 doesn't work correctly.
1. In the Console view mode, I can move on a desctop Reverb, Echo and other buttons only once, to maximum, after that moved button became dead and doesn't answer to mouse clicks.
2. It's impossible to import a loop or soundtrack for recording - in the Loop Explorer view mode no folder is availiable, I can see folders, but they don't answer the mouse clicks.
I tired installation for more times. Driver is istalled correctly as well.
Who knoes, what to do? Do I really need to uprgade Vista to Win7? But I don't want ...
Be happy everybody!

I can't help either. I run vista - no issues. Try uninstall/reinstall maybe.
 

Hi Everyone,
    Making progress. Reinstalled and after I loaded a CSHS7 XL file in to GT4 , it played back fine. I tested the ins and outs on the GT USB. They all worked. The audio from the guitar sounded good in the headphones, but when I tried to record guitar audio into GT4. Got Error Message, Unable to Open Audio Device.

   Settings seemed ok, input, output, driver, record options. One thing GT4 does not have is any kind of detailed record settings like CSHS 7XL has. There is no screens in GT4 to setup the buffer sizes, recording sample rate, bit rate, choose driver, etc.

   I get GT4 tries to do it all automaticly or simply uses whatever settings you have on the USB recorder by default. I am using the default settings 16 bit, 44K. I could never get the audio meters to work or hear any guitar audio in GT4.

   So I closed GT4 down and tried the USB Recorder with CHS 7XL.In 7XL the audio meters worked and I could hear audio from the guitar but it was full of crackling noises and not clean. I had the same driver settings in both GT4 and CSHS 7XL.

   I tried calling tech support but gave up after being on hold for an hour. So I emailed them and told them I already looked in the knowledge base, etc. Nothing there.

   I will try moving the USB Recorders Dip Switches tomorrow, look for an updated driver and try all 3 audio driver choices. Creative ASIO. WDM, and WASPI. I will also try changing the bit rate and sample rate.

   I will also test the audio recorder in some non Cakewalk Audio Software.

   My GT4 box had no system requirements on the bottom of the box. They had been peeled off in shipping, so I only paid 32 bucks US for the new unopened GT4 Pro USB. The store manager told me. We can not sell it at full price, because the customers can not even read the box to see what the PC and Mac system requirements are.

   The Roland USB recorder was bubble wrapped, and all the disks and manuals were sealed and in plastic bags. And the shape of the box was fine, so for the price of a couple of large pizzas, I got the recording deal of the year already.

Happy Recording

Try using just GT Pro and don't install the 4.0.5 update...the update caused my GT 4 to stop functioning.....Just a thought
