Lost Audio Recording in Sonar upon converting Audigy to 2.1 from 5.1

My itsy 5.1 speakers couldn't handle the panning on some of the presets of the G-Force/Boogie preamp I just set up, and the rear speakers kept cacking out with panning effects, so I tossed them, and went from the line-out of the Audigy 2, into the line in of my stereo, and re-cofigured the Mixer so it was calibrated/set-up for 2.1. The calibration tests in Audigy 2 went fine.

When I go into Sonar and insert an audio track, I get a signal fine and the sound, but now when I hit record on the track, then hit reord on the playback head, it doesn't record.

Midi tracks are still recording fine, and all the driver/input/output options appear as they used to, which I think is the culprit, but I'm not sure how to update Sonar now???

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys:)

I got it, had to actually remove all the extra junk in options>audio, then restart, then go back and add the Analog and restart.


Seems to be working:)
 
Shawn...
Have you run Wave Profiler again after you change the mode ? and restart SONAR. If so, then you'll have to hug & kiss your wife/girlfriend...

That, and a bunch of other stuff (LOL) worked. But now it's recording everything into the audio track, not just the audio track. I had that fixed once, so I'll figure it out.

I'ma boat ready to go get me a Fostex 8 track LOL. Kidding...

On the up side, my guitar sounds totally killer. I'm gonna get evicted soon LOL. The G-Force is so clean, and the pitch shifting really blows my mind, it's not cheesy, and it's diatonic, intelligently. Have a song in G? Wanna sound lydian? Punch in C Lydian, and it's in key. I love it. And it maps a full chord if you want, original, and 2 diatonic notes of your choice. I thought Eventide was the only company doing that...but at 3 times the price. I'm so happy, you don't know...

I'm doing some testing. Take a clean user preset, blank. Bypass it, and the sound is exactly like the Boogie, and when you add effects, like reverb, that's all you get...the tone stays, and you get the effect, no colouring of the tone. And boy the Boogie is so FAT! I'm a Metallica fan, and I thought I'd be pushing the gain and master way up, but at triple-Rectifier, it's only about half for each. Might be different live, but for recording, it's at half, nicely distorted, but I can still get a full open C chord without it sounding totally aweful. I'm so used to distorting the crap out of a sound to make it sound good for playing, but that never translates to tape. It's not like that at all now...It's way more than someone like me needs...but I'm not complaining.

Anyways, just babbling in my favourite little corner:):):)
