Paint tool makes no sound :-(

Post by Helkok » Wed Jan 02, 2019 4:20 pm

Hello to all Abletonians!

Im a fresh Ableton blood, and I already got a little problem, which is hopefully easy to solve...
In other DAWs Ive used previously, during Painting "squares" with virtual keyboard every "square" produced a pitched sound right away during the creation process. Now when I try to paint a melody line or beat, paint tool produces no sound and I constantly have to Replay the clip track to actually hear what I made.

Is there a way to turn sound on when using a Paint tool?

Thanks in advance and happy new year! <3

See the third picture:

If you activate the icon with the headphone, you'll be able to hear the notes as you draw/move them.
