Pinnacle making weird sounds when triggering ram samples using sonar-HELP!
hi there thanks for checking this message out. i'm not really sure this is a sonar problem, but i am really desperate i have got a load of work on and i just upgraded my computer, anyway, after reinstalling my soundcard (turtle beach pinnacle with 16mb of ram) i find that when i trigger wav samples (using sonar) loaded onto the ram thru patch librarian i get weird swooshy noises with no bass, not the wav samples i have loaded onto the card. i know i am triggering the wav samles rather than some weird presets cos i can just hear some characteristics of the original wav file under the distorted mess. i am triggering the card thu sonar but this was not happening before. i have had something similar happen before but i cant remember how i made it go away. the noises are really distorted and have no bass (even kick drum samples) and i have checked the wav files and tried uploading a range of wavs, none of which sound much like what they're meant to. this is not an amplifier or setup problem. i have tried reinstalling the card and the software a number of times but this hasn't helped either.
in case its any use my system is as follows:
abit k7a raid mobo
athlon 800mhz
256mb pc133 ram
turtle beach pinnacle
sonar xl
using pinnacle patch librarian to load wav samples onto ram on soundcard
if anyone could help i would be forever indebted as i have some deadlines to meet and i need to be able to trigger these sounds thru midi.
thanks in advance guys
cheers
