If your files are visible, but won't play and/or the waveform doesn't show up:

99% of the time, if a file won't play it's a problem with the device or network you are using. There are a few simple steps that will fix the issue almost every time.

  1. Try a different browser such as Google Chrome. To ensure that extensions or plugins in your browser aren't affecting your experience, try playing the files in an Incognito window (CMD+SHIFT+N on Mac)

  2. Try listening on a different device, such as a phone or tablet. If this still doesn't work, try disabling WLAN (Wi-Fi) and using your cellular network

  3. Last, but not least, restart your modem and router if issues persist across multiple devices on the same network
