Hi again Bob, Thanks for the updated info. Recording sound into Sonar is not my primary area of experiece (as I usually just compose midi tracks that record to soft synths or samplers or occasionally import audio that I recorded elsewhere), but I bet if we put our heads together we can make some pro...

Hi Bobegeee, Can we have some more information please: (1) Can you play the audio (wav format?) files at normal speed on the same computer but using different programs (sound recorder, Windows Media Player, Winamp, etc.)? (2) Do midi tracks with a soft synth or sampler play back at normal speed with...

Hi Stratman868,

You could try the ASIO drivers. Those work best for me.

Are you running Windows XP or Vista? Also, what sound card do you have installed? That information might be useful to someone trying to help you solve your problem.

Hi therearenorules, I didn't see anything official on Cakewalk's site, but I did a Google search and most of the listings of system requirements for PA 9 that I did find did not list XP.

Could it be your antivirus software? I've noticed that I get pops and click when I play music in XP with the antivirus on (it's less noticeable if the piece has a lot of percussion to drown them out). I can get it to sound just fine by disabling the antivirus (after VERY carefully disabling my conne...

Hi Tozzi, A couple of thoughts/questions spring to mind: (1) Could it be a simple oversight like having the drum track(s) muted or the other tracks solo'd? (A long shot but it doesn't hurt to ask - I've overlooked things like that from time to time, especially when tired :oops: ) (2) Can you get a d...

Congratulations on finding the solution, Elvisman. That's always a good feeling :) And yes if the SB Audigy card comes with the Dell that's fine. The problem between Audigy and Dell that I refered to only occurs if someone takes and off-the-shelf Audigy and sticks it in certain Dell Models (which is...

Hi Elvisman, Some thoughts: (1) Have you muted or archived track one before recording? I would guess you probably have since you didn't have this problem with the SB Live, but it doesn't hurt to make sure. (2) Is your new computer a Dell by any chance? Certain Dell Models have problems with Soundbla...

Hi Mike, It is certainly possible to use Music Creator Pro/24 as a drum machine of sorts and there are at least 2 (and probably more) ways to do it: - You can create a "drum map". If you look in the program help and do a search for tutorials, tutorial 8 goes into the specifics of how to do this. - A...

Hi SeaMower, Yes, it does seem that when you create a MIDI track in Session Drummer that any subsequent Session Drummer will overwrite your initial track. The best solution that I could come up with is to create a second MIDI track, use Session Drummer there, and then copy and paste the resulting cl...

Hi Andy, Thanks for the reply.

Recording or real-time automation with Sonar 3/DreamStation

I'm using the Dreamstation synth that came with Sonar 3 to get sound out of midi tracks. I have an M-Audio Audiophile 2496 soundcard and am using Windows XP. I can play a piece just fine. I can also bounce to track just fine to create audio. What I can't seem to do is to arm the track to record and ...

Hi Harley. I'm by no means an expert in static reduction yet, but here are some things to try if you have not already done so (I have Windows XP, but I would imagine most of them would apply to ME as well): (1) Check device manager ito make sure there are no IRQ conflicts. (2) If you have an advance...

I recently went thru a battle to get an Audigy 2 Platinum Pro to work in my Dell Dimension 8200. I write my story in the hopes that is will save others time and frustration.
