Hello all, I bought LE, X1 w/ X2 Essentials upgrade in hopes of helping with my Guitar! Now I have everything installed, I can lay down loops from the Browser, Play them back in Sequence even make some kind of beat w/ rhythm that sounds pretty decent. That is until I lay down a Drum Track from the soft synth, THEN I kinds of problems! THE #1 PROBLEM IS I HAVE NO VOLUME FROM THE DRUM TRACK1[:@
 I am using a LapTop until I can get my PC up. I have ran the AUDIO test and it says everything is set up right. I am using a Roland Duo Capture as an Interface.
 Also, is there some Literature that can break down all the Jargon and Mumbo Jumbo into laymans terms? Whats a Compressor Channel and what does it do? A  SOFT SYNTH? Ican tell you about a Vibrato, 1/4 note, Finger Tap things of that nature, but this is all new to me! 
 THANKS FOR THE HELP!

Welcome!

Stay calm :o) :o) It takes some time to get there!

Two things come to pop in my eye:
Firstly: Have you done the tutorials and studied the help files about using soft synths? There's 1800 pages to study, plus lots of videos in the web. As I've never watched them, I can't give links :o/ There really is some homework to do to get the idea of DAW work, but with patience you'll get there, and it's worth it.

Secondly: You should tell in a rational manner what you have done and how. What tracks are created, MIDI or audio, what are their inputs and outputs and so on. Otherwise we can't know what you're doing wrong and whether you're in the right ball park at all.

You can make a beat that sounds decent, you say, until you lay down a drum track from the soft synth...OK
But what is the decent beat that you make first? How what where? Where does the sound come? By soft synth in this case do you mean Session Drummer or TTS-1? How did you insert it and how did you use it (inserting the beats etc)?  Soft synth is the instrument that turns the MIDI into audio, as MIDI is only silent data. Session Drummer and TTS-1 are both soft synths.

At tweakheadz.com there's lots of well written guides for beginners about the terminology and functions of different effects and such. The book "X2 Power" should be out any day, I've seen someone write here. It's very recommendable, I think. 

Did the Help files really give no search results for Compressor Channel  or Soft synth?

BTW, use ASIO drivers with your Duo Capture (selected in the Preferences) they are usually the best. And make sure that the laptops integrated soundchip is not selected, and I'd make sure the GS Wavetable Synth is not selected either.

Heres the link to Videos

Also Karl - FBB Fast Biker Boy has some in his signature on here

Thanks! when I havd the oppertunity, I will try to explaun what I have done so far!

What Kalle said. Stay calm.
The first few weeks, you will probably feel like you are in way over your head.
Don't worry. We've all been there. it takes time, but it will all start to make sense after a while.
Definitely spend some time with the help files. At first, you may not know what you are looking at, but you will stumble across the answers.
Take your time, don't stress out, and keep it fun.

Okay I am reading up on the TUTORIALS! Still have a slight problem, most of the Videos are in a foreign language that I do not understand!  I speak English not recording engineer language! JK! tALK ABOUT A bRAIN aCHE.

Welcome to the forum.
The glossary has definitions for many of the terms.
If they're not in there, you can google a term or make a list of some of them and ask here.

Thanks! Where do I find the Glossary?

At the end of the Help files.
