White Paper on tweaks

Perhaps it already exists somewhere, so please let me know where . . . .

I'd like to see a document that discusses all the ini file tweaks.
You know . . . what the tweaks do, and ways that we can get the best performance out of Sonar.

As far as I know, there is an incomplete listing, and it's scatter here and there.
It would be great if it could be put in one document.

For example, I was having trouble getting midi and audio to sync. What I needed to do was add a line to one of the ini files (something like "IgnoreMidiTimeStamp" . . . I'm not in front of my music computer now).

If that had been documented somewhere, I could have fixed this myself, but instead had to go through the phone tech route, which took a lot of my time, and the time of a Cakewalk employee.

Cakewalk folks, can we have a tweak document???

    If that had been documented somewhere,


    The various INI variables should be documented in the User's Guide and online Help. This is from the Help file (TTSSEQ.INI topic):

    IgnoreMidiInTimeStamps=<0 or 1>

    Type = Boolean
    Default value = 0 (disable)

    This line determines whether or not SONAR ignores any MIDI time stamping that a MIDI driver does. If you're experiencing increasing delays between the time you play a MIDI note on a controller and the time you hear SONAR echo it, setting this line to 1 may help. Also, if you find that SONAR is recording MIDI data at a different time from when the data was played, setting this line to 1 may help. If the MIDI driver is using a different clock from SONAR, the time discrepancy increases the longer that the MIDI driver is open, so you need to tell SONAR to ignore the timestamp that the MIDI driver adds to the data (set the value to 1).
