    MIDI Latency in SONAR 5

    Hi all, I recently upgraded to Sonar 5, and the audio works great. But I am experiencing annoying MIDI latency...like I play something on my keyboard, and there is a significant pause before I hear it back. So I usually end up using my native keyboard sounds to record the MIDI track in, then...

    Problems in Sonar 5

    Hey Everyone, I recently upgraded from Sonar 4 to 5 and moved it to my laptop so I can track with less fan noise. I have a few problems.... Using MIDI, there is mad latency. Like I play a note on my keyboard (which sounds with the native sounds) and then the software synth seems to respond...

    Sonar Producer 4 + Reason 3

    Hey Everyone, I've been trying to run Sonar 4 with Reason 3 as the ReWire instrument, and everytime I do, nothing really runs. Like the play button doesn't work in either program.

    midi latency

    Hey Everybody. I'm having a problem with midi latency. It happen in both Reason and Sonar. It's really messing me up because I'm trying to play stuff in on my keyboard, but the actual sound reacts at least a 32 note late (at slow tempo). I'm using an Audiophile 2496 and roland keyboard. I have...

    Native Instruments B4 and Sonar

    Hey Everyone, I'm trying to get the B4 to work with Sonar. It works with a bit of latency in standalone mode, but I would like to put some MIDI information through it. I can import it into Sonar as a DXi synth but don't really know what track to use this on. I recorded a MIDI track, then put...

    midi controller + laptop

    Hey Everyone, Currently I have a Roland ep85 keyboard that just isn't cutting it anymore. There is a consistent hum, the sounds aren't that great and the lack of weighted keys is getting to me. So I was wondering how much sense the following scenario would make. Instead of just buying a new...

    what's going on in this drum clip?

    Hey Everyone, I just got a pair of Rode NT5s and am trying to recording my Pearl Export set. But something weird is going on in this clip. It may just be me, but I swear there's all sorts of weird panning going on. Like right off the top it sounds as though everything pans to the right. I...

    OC703 in Canada

    Hey Everyone, I've been reading a bit about acoustics on SAE and other sites. I notice I have a lot of "standing waves" in my basement studio (if you can call it that). The room is about 15 by 20, drop down ceiling and carpetted. I notice that if I drag a snare drum into the middle of the room...

    Trying to find the quietest solution

    Hey Everyone, I just got my first condenser for Christmas...a Rode NT-1a. Now I'm trying to find the quietest location to use this as it is far more sensitive than any other mics I have owned (all dynamics). The attachments (first and last) show the recording area I have to work with. Also...
