    syncing Sonar with a BR-8

    I am trying to transfer some tracks from my Boss BR-8 recorder to Sonar. I've posted on this a while back. I'm back at it now. I've not had good luck using the Br-8 as the master to sync up with sonar. This is the only way to hook it up since the br-8 only has midi out. Now, I did get sonar to...

    New to vox

    What would be the single most generalized, generic, standardized bit of advice you'd give to someone about to record his own voice for the first time?:)

    Apply Effects

    I've been trying to apply effects to tracks in SONAR 2 in order to give my CPU a break, I've got loads of tracks with lots of plugins and I'm hovering on the brink of the dreaded dropouts. So, I wanted to use fewer effects in realtime, but applying effects doesn't seem to work. As far as I can...

    How can I do this?

    "This means that you can get away with using a mastering plug-in or processor to sum all the frequencies below about 120Hz to mono, without disturbing the stereo image --" This is a quote from an article I was reading. What will do this? I use SONAR.

    work in progggrrresssssss........

    My ears are fried. I have been pissing around with this for too long. I'm making it worse. Anyway, here's the scenario. I finally got my system up and running satisfactorily. This is my first Sonar project. It all started as a way to find my way around Sonar to get my feet wet. So began the...

    dr770

    Anybody use one? I've been using a dr5 for years now, and I'm getting tired of the sounds, but I just can't part with it because I'm so used to the way it works, even though I know it's so outdated. How bout the 770? How does it sound? I would assume it would be fairly easy to make the switch...

    Exporting

    Hmmm. Trying to export a Sonar project for the first time. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. In the export window, I select Wave, deselect Seperate Submix, give it a name, and export to stereo file. When it's done, I can find the file, but can't open it. It doesnt have a .wav suffix either. When I...

    Sync Question

    I'm trying to send some tracks from a standalone digital recorder, (BR8) into Sonar. I've got the BR8 synced up to Sonar, with the BR8 as the Master, because it only has a MIDI out port. I can control playback with the BR8, but Sonar won't record from the BR8. Its not a question of inputs hooked...

    XP and Audiophile

    Planning on getting the Audiophile 2496 to use on XP with Sonar. However, been reading a bit about this card, and have found that seemingly a lot of people have had major problems with XP drivers. Of course, you never hear about those who don't have problems. My question is: Anybody here using...

    sblive driver update

    I've been trying to update the driver for my SBLive 5.1 using the download from creative. When I attempt to open the setup file, an error message pops up and says I have no soundblaster hardware installed on my machine. Creative support was no help. I have tried changing the card's location...

    the saga continues...

    hey guys. I've been wrestling with my SBLive 5.1 for a while, (ever since I got it) trying to get it to work right with sonar. Supposedly the Live Drive pack driver update from Creative will solve my problem, which is the driver for my card forcing sonar to go into mono mode. So I downloaded...

    Two old tunes

    Hey guys, I came across a CD containing two songs I did when I first got my BR8. I can't find the disks containing the tracking for these, so there will likely be no changes in the mix, even though I'm well aware of some things I would have done differently. So since I've had no time lately to...

    KX project

    Has anyone here tried the KX Project driver for Creative soundcards? The Sonar support page recommended downloading it to get around the problematic XP driver from XP. So I downloaded it and started to install it. It gives a message at one point to ignore any messages to reboot. The problem is...

    pro audio install.

    Yes, my non-computer literate ass is having more problems. I tried to install pro audio 9 on my computer. It all worked until I got to the screen where it told me to enter the cd# . I enter the number I was given, and it just dings and does nothing. So I close out of setup. Now every time I boot...

    new soundcard

    Well I won't bore you with all the details of my plight, I'll just tell you my SBLive has got to go. Looking to find something hopefully under $200, to use with Sonar 2.0 xl . Running XP. Anybody with Sonar out there got a good idea? Thanks.

    More problems

    Still getting used to Sonar 2.0 xl, which is my first foray into the world of pc recording. After I lay down some tracks, I find I can't pan anything! panning left or right simply lowers the volume. Also, I try to record a stereo track from my drum machine, but it won't let me. everything is...

    Wierd stuff

    Just getting started with Sonar xl 2. When I monitor my input, I can hear whatever instrument I'm using, and it sounds fine. As soon as I press record, I can hear everything twice. It sounds like a delay, but it only happens some of the time. Also, how come it tells me my soundcard isn't...

    MIDI sync

    I am new to computer recording. I have been using a Boss BR8 for tracking until now. I just got Sonar XL 2 on my computer, and I want to sync up my drum machine to it the way I did my BR8. This way a can record separate tracks of snare, kick, etc, and have everything line up. Now, my...

    first software recommendations

    I finally got myself a computer for the homestead, (all previous posts from work) and I have some questions regarding what software would be right for me. First of all, my intentions. I do all my recording on a Boss Br8, and will probably continue to do so until I learn something else. I have...
