Clicks and Crashes......Help

Do you have the latest 64bit drivers for your Quadcapture installed in your PC.
Then i would try WDM and ASIO driver modes and see what works best for you.

I have no pan control from my consol & when I use Ctrl-S to save i hear a loud scrathy noise that is driving me nutz!!!

What console are you using? I would assume that the console is at fault, if you cant pan your audio signal going form your console to your audio interface. You probably dont even need a separate console if you have an audio interface. I would do away with it.


As far as your noise when you "save as". I bet its an IRQ conflict. So iu would look into that

daddyV: show me your computers home page !

Firstly, go to the settings of your interface

Try making the sample rate 44.1 - this will have to match what Sonar is set to but you have to start somewhere so do that here

Try setting the number of samples parameter to 256 - it's a reasonable starting point

Now BEFORE going into Sonar, test out the sound of playing a song through Windows Media Player.  Sound OK?

Now go into Sonar - don't bother getting into a project yet - go to Edit>Preferences>Audio>Playback and Recording
What driver mode are you running in?  Set it to ASIO then click Apply

Now click on Driver Settings on the left


Set the Sample Rate to 44.1 to match the interface settings

Click Apply

Close out of this

Open a new project with Normal template

Insert an audio track

Click on the number 1 on the left side of the track to select it

Click File>Edit>Import Audio and import some MP3 or WMA file,  this will load it to track 1

Now click Play or hit the space bar

How does it sound?  Does it sound?

The above just checks a simple audio file for playback outside of Sonar and also within Sonar

Please post results

Update all your drivers (inc graphics card, sound card, chipset). Do not rely on HP's site for update drivers, instead go to each manufacturers website to make sure you have the latest version. Run windows update. Update all your firmware and BIOSs for all your hardware. Run scandisk and defrag your hard drive. Turn off AMD PowerNow in the BIOS.

Q for CakeAlex.....how do I turn off the AMD powernow?

Daddy: had to step out... see your running the 308 patch and do Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012.... http://www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx?id=30679 then we can do chipset and video drivers, in this case we can try your Laptops home page support, there you will find chipset and video drivers !!

@ StarTeKh.....yes that is the computer with the upgrades that I posted earlier. I just downloaded the C++ updates and I am looking for the rest now.

SONAR X2 Producer QuickFix (Build 308) Available Now! 0 / 2492 by Ryan Munnis [Cakewalk] September 28, 12 2:28 PM by: Ryan Munnis [Cakewalk] [Go to last post] Just Do It !!

WOW.....lots of updates!!! Got the chip set from amd...Still working on the Bios? I may need more help with that?

Here's This mornings report....All updated done & backed up.. I ran an MP3 and it sounded fine i media player and X-2!!  Checked all my settings and loaded an audio track.  Recorded a guitar track- sounded good! Erased then added supperior drum track 12 bars then a guitar then a second as a lead guitar - sounded fine no sratches when saving. Then i added busses for the drums and one for each guitar- still A OK...sounded great!! I then began to add FX in pro channels and console emulators and then the same scratch's when saving showed back up. GRRRR I thought we were fixed? I know it's just one more tweak to get this machine working perfect. But what tweak will do the trick? I'm not starting my new project till I get this last imperfection fixxed.  Thanks for all the help guys. You Rock!!!

I don't think this has been mentioned yet, or maybe I'm simply missing it, but you should certainly try increasing your latency to see if that helps with the screeching sound - your CPU should be hitting pretty hard if that's the case.
 

Here's what I did tonight

StarTekh...I used every tweak you showed me except messing with the bios! I got the interface and X2 matched up in the settings menus. That did the trick. I still had one crash today but was my fault for not waiting on the program to stop. Other than that she did everything I asked of her today. I will start tracking for real this weekend. And, I started a soundclick profile for you guys to comment on my progress which I would appreciate if it's constructive of course...lol  I expect a crack now and then but I'm all about my own stuff & don't care about making money just music for my own pleasure....ROCK ON

Happy Tracking !! I feel a Happy Thread comming on !!
