How do I make the sound come out of the speakers?  It is definitely worth it because I'm
selectively capturing segments from interviews, and I need to locate the start and stop
points by listening to the tapes and hearing what people are saying-- the visual cues
are non-existent.  The meters are moving.  Why can't I hear anything?  When I switch to
iMovie, I can hear the sound fine, but in FCE, no sound at all from either computer or
camcorder.
