Tygrv,

For computers using Windows, RealTracks are stored on your computer as wma files (WMAa are Microsoft's answer to MP3 files) for everything but the Audiophile edition. Audiophile edition gets both WMA and WAV versions of RealTracks. Anyhow, you can listen to a RealTrack on any DAW or media player that can play wma files.

RealTracks are located in a Band-in-a-Box subfolder called RealTracks. For instance mine are at: E:\Band-In-A-Box\bb\RealTracks. Each RealTrack has it's own sub folder. You may see one or several WMA files in a sub folder.

Copy pne of the WMA files to your desktop then try playing the file in another player like Windows Media Player.

Also, double click on the speaker icon located in the lower right hand side of your screen to open the Windows mixer and make sure all your faders are set to about the same level and that none have the mute check mark.
