On one of my MPC Beats projects, there is no playback. When I first open the project, it projects an extremely loud crashing sound through my speakers. Then, when I try to play the song, there is no sound. I know it is playing, because the levels on the mixer are active. I have gone into my "Input, output" settings on my computer (Windows) and I have modified my preferences in MPC. I have opened a "Demo" project and the playback is just fine. So it is definitely a problem with that specific project.

Does anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it?

I am aware of a random bug that stops project audio (but still allows audio in sample edit), but this will affect any project at any given time, and the only fix is to reboot the app, so it doesn't sound the same problem as yours.

Can you try creating a new blank project and loading the individual programs and sequences from the problematic [projectData] folder and effectively recreate the project? This would rule out corruption in the original project file. Otherwise it could be an issue with a plugin.
