Presenting audio followed by set of questions

Hello:

In my experiment I have to present a list of audio files in random order and then ask a set of questions.
I can't seem to get all the audios to play. The experiment quits after the very first file has played out. There are 8 audios, each followed by 9 questions (the questions are same for each audio).

I have my script here. Can you please take a look and see where I am going wrong.
Thank you.

You only run a single instance of your "tapes" trial (which plays one audio file), followed by nine rating trials.

You need to repeat that exercise 8 times, though, if you want to play all files. I.e.:

<block StartRun>
/preinstructions = (Instructions)
/ trials = [1,11,21,31,41,51,61,71=tapes;2-10,12-20,22-30,32-40,42-50,52-60,62-70,72-80=EMPA_TEA]

Perfect. That worked! I appreciate your help.
