I've recorded MIDI drum sequences into Sonar. Six tracks, each with different instruments. The problem seems to be that if I create duplicates of the tracks and rearrange the MIDI sequences to create more complex drum patterns and try to play them back, the playback stops right at the beginning of a measure, even if I have one continuous clip.
I'm new to MIDI so I don't know, is there some limit as too how many tracks the average system and synth can play back. I know that my synth has 128 voice polyphony, but I'm using maybe 6-8 patches total for the drums. My hardware is pIII, 356Mb RAM. The audio card is Delta44 and the MIDI card is SBLive. Both have the latest drivers and I have tried replacing them. Sonar has the latest 1.3.1 patch. I've also tried setting the synth to slave, and not. Doesn't make a difference. I'm alos not sure if there's a way to test whether its the synth or the program.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
