Default Monitors for Playback??

I just purchased a bundle of Pro Tools Express with M-Audio M-Track plus interface. Once I was done recording, I could not hear my vocals through the laptop speakers. I just want to know if I need studio monitors for my interface in order to hear the output or is there a way to make it play through the laptop speakers?

Default Re: Monitors for Playback??

Yeah, you'll need some speakers to hear your audio, or at least a pair of headphones.

I don't believe that Protools Express will let you monitor through your laptop speakers. The full version of Protools will do this is you have ASIO drivers (or if Core audio is if it a Mac).
