why do i not here any of the midi insturments output when I play the sample files or try to use the drums etc.? I realize I have no MIDI input, but what do I have to do to be able to use the synth drums etc in Sonar?

Your midi audio port might not be assigned. Check to see that you have a midi output assigned. If you do, you might check one more thing.

Go to Options|Audio|Advanced and see if the box labled "Always use MME..." is checked. If not, put a check mark in the box and restart Sonar. That might be the reason you do not hear midi audio. That was my problem.

Good luck.
