A 'shhhhhh' noise...

 Hello there friends,
 I'm useing Sonar 8 Producer Edition, and was recording some hip hop track with my friends, was really fun and good, up to some point when I started getting a random "shhhhhhhhhh" noise... Sometimes once per song, sometimes more, sometimes on begining, sometimes somewhere else... As if it was random, but not completely, maybe every certain interval...?
 I removed ALL plugins so it's not that... I have a crappy sound card on this computer, can it be that? Did I add to many tracks or does it make no difference?

 Please Help!
 Thanks!

    Sounds like it could be a demo version of a VST or VSTi that you're using that is introducing that noise.

    Sounds like this issue:

    http://forum.cakewalk.com/fb.ashx?m=2237558

    The OP in that thread encountered the problem ("whoosh" sound) after upgrading to hard drives with a 64MB cache from drives with a 32MB cache. I don't think he ever got it resolved, except by going back to using the old drives.

     Thanks guys... I'm a guitarist/vocalist, and I do music as a hobby, quite seriously, but I am a newbie when it comes to Sonar... It's really weird, for starters, why the **** wouldn't it give a nice big <eerkkkkkkkkk> "Error" massage that a plug in is demo and therefore it happens? It's completely ****ed, I'm not psychic...
     As for that thread, read it, dunno, will keep digging and trying... But don't have my hopes up since I've read it...
     The only useful thing more I can say is that it STARTED to happen at SOME point... I figured it's my crappy sound card, or mic contact is crap so I didn't pay much attention to it. It started either when I started to play with plugins OR when I recorded the very end, added more tracks...

    Neither is Sonar. How would Sonar know that the plug-in is a demo?

    Ye Dave, not blaming Sonar, don't  get me wrong... Ok, it's plug-in's fault, doesn't matter tbh, just saying that it's really silly to make a problem where there isn't one... If there was some msg or smth I could know for sure... There's none, have to come here and ask you guys then, and spend hours digging 'round... -.-

    Tell us which (non-Cakewalk) VSTi softsynths you have.  Maybe someone might be able to identify a likely culprit for the source of the noise.
