Select the clip, then on the Process menu, choose Audio | Reverse.

Try setting your driver mode to MME (under Tools | Audio Options | Advanced | Driver Mode). It's like the lowest common denominator for sound cards that don't support WDM and don't have an ASIO driver. You could also try the http://www.asio4all.com/ driver

I can't imagine that behaviour is by design. Some thoughts: - Are you on Sonar 6 or 6.2? They fixed a few possibly-related bugs in the synth rack for 6.2: http://www.cakewalk.com/support/kb/kb20070129.asp - It might be worth asking on the Cakewalk forums, as the developers hang out there...

Does the envelope definitely affect the parameter it's assigned to? That is, if you open the FxFlange while the envelope's changing, do you see the "mix" fader move? I find that Sonar sometimes orphans an envelope for no discernible reason. (Hover over the envelope with your mouse, and the the...

Extract Timing is used to build a tempo map based on the transients in your audio. But it won't create midi events. For that, you want the Extract Groove option, which is the last of the 4 radio buttons on the left of the Audio Snap dialog. From the manual: Along with the "Save As Groove"...

If you have a sidechain-capable compressor, you could duck the snare hits a little in the overhead track by using one of the snare mics as the sidechain input. Or, sometimes you can get away with limiting the OH's to bring the snare level in line with the rest of the drums. Fast-attack, and...

Is the D4 definitely receiving MIDI and producing sound? If you put headphones in the D4's headphone jack, do you hear what you expect? Apologies if I'm stating the obvious, but if the D4's not generating sound, maybe it's not listening on channel 9. Some drum machines default to channel 10.

TapeOp is great too, and free in the U.S. You can't subscribe to the UK print version, but there's a U.S. version they'll be happy to ship you every month: http://www.soundonsound.com/subs

That'll often happen if you use some resource-hungry soft synths, or a lot of FX and plugins. It's fine for mixing, but if you like to play your soft synths "live", anything over 10 or 15 ms will feel probably feel sluggish. 30ms borders on unplayable. If you are using a lot of soft synths and...

The two most likely possibilities: 1) You've accidentally set the master bus output to "none". On the mixer, bottom left, there's a button to enable/disable display of the output for each channel. Enable it, and make sure your master bus is feeding something other than "none" (likely, it should...

You accidentally hit the scroll-lock button! (And thereby discovered a poorly-documented feature of Sonar.) And I'll bet when you restart your PC, it defaults to scroll-lock off, so that's why it solved your problem.

I find Audiosnap works only marginally well on strummed acoustic guitar, and not well at all on fingerpicked guitar. (It's great on drums though.) The harder the strumming, the better it works, probably because the transients are more obvious. How "off" is the guitar? If it's only a matter of...

Are you using the ASIO driver? Have you upgraded the Firebox firmware to v2.46? Have you tried increasing the Firebox's latency to see if that solves the issue?

The nt1a can handle high SPL, so why not try it on kick, with the 58's in Recorderman setup as OHs, and the 609 on snare.

In case you haven't solved the issue yet: This is almost always because of routing. You're either routing the track to a mono bus that's panned off-center, or the track is routed to an effect send panned to one side or the other. Note the track's current output (probably "master"). Then change...

I know that song well. Unless you're talking about the first 15 seconds, there are two acoustic guitars playing, one panned left and one panned right (about 30%?) That, and Ryan Adams' fantastic timekeeping so the guitars are really tight, is the main reason the stereo image is wide. But...

Forgive the self-link, but here's a trick you can use (sometimes) when re-recording isn't an option: http://www.hometracked.com/2007/06/01/create-a-doubled-stereo-track-from-a-mono-source/ In essence, cut-and-paste matching sections of your mono track onto a second track to create a double.

Sonar effectively streams the audio data directly to your hard drive. The underlying WAV files are written "on the fly" as audio is recorded. So in practice, saving doesn't take any time at all. As soon as you stop recording, the WAV files are there, ready to use. However: Depending on your...

It depends on the software, of course. But assuming some recent version of Sonar: Right-click on the clip, and choose "clip properties". (Or select the clip and hit alt-enter) On the clip properties dialog, choose the Audio Stretching tab, and check the "stretch to project tempo" checkbox...
