Hi,

I use Sonar 3.0 and I used a Yamaha MD8 8 track digital recorder. I dumped 8 tracks of audio from the MD8 to sonar. It worked fine but after redoing the vocals on the MD8 I tried to dump it on sonar. It didn't work at all because the audio doesn't play anymore. I can play back any of my projects even others that i dumped from the MD8, but this one doesn't play. it stops as soon as i press play. I wonder if it is because I played with the midi time code settings, but i compare with all my other projects and it is the same settings...

Any idea?

Are you getting an AUDIO DROPOUT, or is Sonar just freezing once you press play?
 
no dropout just doesn't play... just now I was working on a project, then I tried to apply an effect, then it just wouldn't appear, so I closed sonar to reopen it and now it does it again! I press play and it just doesn't move, the "line" doesn't go forward.

Hi,

I just selected the whole song, then pressed the loop button, now it plays, but no sound comes out. It must be just a button somewhere... it is not a solo or mute button i verified that.

What latency are you running at?

You might want to set it a tad higher... ;)
 
I found the problem, as soon as I patch more than one effect it doesn't play anymore. I got a p4 2.6ghz 800FSB, 512 meg ram(400mhz), so It souldnt be a problem having fx here and there.

but with 2 effects on a 4 tracks project... I brought up the latency at max (350ms), i/o buffer size at 256... doesn't work.

Regards,

Thierry
 
Is it just a series of plugins or just one plugin that's causing the problem? Or is it any plugins?
 
you know, this is weird, I found that:

On dropouts ( even if it was NOT dropout)


Advanced Method - Close SONAR. Open SONAR's AUD.INI file in Notepad. Delete everything listed beneath the line PictureDir=C:\Cakewalk Projects\Picture Cache. Save the file and restart SONAR.

After that everything went fine

Uh oh! Looks like somebody forgot the WaveProfiler-button... :D
