- USAGE NOTES for eMedia Guitar Method:
-
- In the vast majority of cases you should just be able to go ahead
- and use eMedia Guitar Method without any problems.
- However, certain abnormal system configurations can cause difficulties.
- Here are some of those rare problems and workarounds for them.
- Also, further technical support is available on the eMedia
- Internet website: "http://www.emediamusic.com"
-
- PROBLEM: Unable to run videos or play audio with Windows 95
- (e.g. CVID decompressor missing error)
- SOLUTION: From the Control Panel, select "Add/Remove Programs",
- then select "Windows Setup", and there scroll down & select "Multimedia".
- Check the Audio Compression & Video Compression options & click OK.
-
- PROBLEM: Not getting any audio from eMedia Guitar Method.
- SOLUTION: Check volume setting on the eMedia Guitar Method "Options"
- menu. Also, if using Win 95 check the system audio volume setting from
- "Multimedia Properties" in the Control Panel.
-
- PROBLEM: Automatic Tuner and/or Recorder is not working.
- SOLUTION: Check/increase microphone input level. In Windows 95/98 you can do this by double-clicking on the speaker icon
- on the taskbar (usually found at the bottom of your screen). When the Volume Controls application comes up, select
- the "Options" menu and choose "Properties." In the Properties dialog box, under "Adjust volume for," select the
- "Recording" button and make sure that "Microphone" in the list below is checked. Then click OK. When the
- Recording Controls sliders come up, adjust the Microphone slider up close to the top, and make sure that the
- "Select" checkbox under the microphone slider is checked.
-
- PROBLEM: Metronome Tick can't be heard even though other audio works.
- SOLUTION: Rename the TICK.WAV file in the installation directory
- (usually "\EGUITAR") to TICK.OLD and then the metronome will use the
- default Windows sound for the tick (a few rare sound cards have
- trouble with the TICK.WAV because it's such a short sound).
-
- PROBLEM: "Print" Command doesn't print out on the printer or the
- printout is too small for your needs.
- SOLUTION: Try using the "Alt-Printscreen" keyboard combination with
- the screen you want printed showing. This copies the screen image into
- the Windows clipboard. Then you can go into a word processor such as
- Microsoft Write or Word and use the "Paste" Command, and then print
- it out from the word processor.
