Cakewalk Forum

nice...thx for the reply, helped a lot

I just bought bought a new Dell XPS with Windows XP Home. It appears that the computer comes with DirectX 9 installed. I tried to install Sonar but I cant because it says I need to download DirectX 8.1. Well I managed to get sonar working by downloading a file form cakewalk.com but then I couldnt st...

This doesnt really have much to do with cakewalk but it is a technical issue. This is a question for XP users. I just got my new comp and I loaded everything up fine once and then the next day when i booted up my comp got stuck on a blue screen....I loaded it up in safe mode but didnt try again afte...

Yeah I recently bought the Sonar 2 Power book and it helps to no end. It explains everything in great detail and in a way that I can understand it very well. Thanks a lot for making usch an awesome book.

hey thx for the reply..ill probably go with the Home version unless it turns out to be a lot more expensive than Pro somehow. thx again for the help

What do you people recommend as an OS for using SONAR: Microsoft XP Home or Pro? Or if there are any toher ideas out there then please mention those too....Thx in advance

Thx a lot for the reply. Maybe I'll look into getting that Sonar 2 Power book you mentioned. Also, I learned that my dad is good friends with an experienced cakewalk user who works in Sam Ash so maybe I can learn something from him....thx again

Hey does anyone know where I may be able to take a sonar or cakewalk class? I live in New York but I'm only 15 so Im not sure if classes like this are opened to kids or not. Does anyone have any suggestions? This would really help.

What about if I'm recording MIDI? Is an Audiophile 24/96 still a good choice or not?

Im not sure what I did, if anything, but my songs load up fine now. Well, on to my next problem...thx again

Hey, thx for the reply. I opened the file while holding down shift and it opened but nothing came up asking me about the plugins and stuff..The file works fine but I still cant open it unless I hold down shift....why aren't I getting the message? Thx for the help.

All of a sudden whenever I try to open a certain song SONAR says that there is an error with SONAR.exe and then crashes..After that a message pops up saying that there was an error in MFC42.DLL. My other songs work and this song was working the other day but now I whenver I try to open it I get thes...

I posted this is another section on this site but I thought that it would be better suited to the Midi Issues section so I posted it here also....anyway...I know this is probably a stupid question but all of a sudden every first track in all of my songs in SONAR all have a vibrato effect and the onl...

thx again for the help....ill prob end up getting a 120 and 40
