That's strange. What sort of sound card are you using?
Hm. I'm actually at a loss. This is one of the problems of using somebody else's engine to make a program, sometimes the problem is on THEIR end. What I'd do is make a post on the forums of cycling74.com with screenshots attached explaining that you're trying to use an executable made with Max 8, and give them the info about your OS and sound card as well. If you do, link me to the post in case there ends up being anything I can do about it. Here's hoping we can figure this out.
