Yea, Andy I DID disable the onboard audio both in the BIOS and in the Device Manager. Everything claims it's free of conflicts and functioning properly. I tried a few freeware and shareware music composition/sequencer type programs (Ableton Live Lite 5 and Music Studio Producer 1.21) and they all ru...

While I was searching around for new VSTi plugins (I know, that's not going to help my problem, but I have to have SOME fun!) I saw these MIDI path analyzers or detectors (probably not what their called, but you know), and I was wondering if one of these might help locate my stopping problem? And if...

As long as it's not sharing an IRQ it will be OK. At this point I'm looking for ANY reason for this STOP hanging/sloppyiness! A conflicting IRQ makes as much sense as anything, to me. Why else would pressing STOP not stop the music right away!? When I first record a tune all is fine. But once I reo...

Yes, making sure that box was unchecked was one of the first things I checked (becuase it's one of the few parameter options I could actually understand, at least to some degree). Unfortunately when I returned to the new song (2 track, Mellosound + one Synth1) that song behaved just like the origina...

Also, do my other settings sound correct/optimum (or is there any way to know as everyone's sysytem would be different)? And is there any reason to use the WDM/KS driver over ASIO or vice versa? I have used ASIO before on Ableton Live Lite 5, but I think I read somewhere that Sonar preferred WDM/KS ...

On the song project I was speaking of (3 tracks), the "Zero controllers when play stops" box was already checked. So I created a new song using Mellosound VST on one track and Synth1 DXi on another. Now when I press STOP all sounds stop for about a quarter of a second then there's a second or so of ...

Sonar 4 PE hangs when pressing STOP during playback.

So I have just been getting started with Cakewalk Sonar 4 PE and I've run into a pretty major problem. Yesterday I wrote a little 3 minute, 3 track tune with no problems (two instances of Synth1 VST, ERSdrums VST, Pantheon Rev, on one Synth1 track). I saved several versions, as I improved the tracks...
