SONAR 7 PE and WaveLab?

Here is a problem that I've been able to reproduce repeatedly with SONAR 7.0.1 PE:

1. I export a stereo mix from SONAR 7.0.1 PE.
2. I open the exported file in WaveLab 4.
3. I trim the end of the wave file so it doesn't have a long silence space at the end of the song.
4. I add some polishing finish to the wave and "render" the file.
5. As I exit WaveLab, with the file name highlighted, I select "save selected" and WaveLab exits quickly WITHOUT saving the "rendered" (edited) version of the wave file.

Now, here is the Expected Results that I get using SONAR 6.2.1 PE:

1. I export a stereo mix from SONAR 6.2.1 PE.
2. I open the exported file in WaveLab 4.
3. I trim the end of the wave file so it doesn't have a long silence space at the end of the song.
4. I add some polishing finish to the wave and "render" the file.
5. As I exit WaveLab, with the file name highlighted, I select "save selected" and WaveLab exits SAVES the "rendered" (edited) version of the wave file.

It seems that files exported from SONAR 7.0.1 are not properly handled in WaveLab 4 but files exported from SONAR 6.2.1 ARE properly handled in WaveLab 4. Has anyone else experience anything similar to this and is there a compatibility issue with V7.0.1 and WaveLab 4? (I have sent this report to the good folks at Cakewalk).

Here are my system specs:
2.4ghz Intel processor, 1gb ram, 20gb system drive, 80gb audio drive, NVidia GeForce FX5700LE video card, PCI-424 Card with MOTU 2408 mk3 and 24I/O, Windows XP SP2

I was trying to stretch some audio in wavelab and return it to SONAR 7.01. As I closed Wavelab, it gave me the "has to shut down" message and the file was not saved.

Yeah, I was trying to edit an audio clip prior to exporting the stereo mix when I first noticed some strange behavior in WaveLab. I think it's some kind of incompatibility issues. Hopefully Cakewalk can give us feedback. I'll keep you posted if/when they reply to my inquiry. Anyone else with some "horror" stories with S7PE and WaveLab 4?

It is definitely a SONAR 7 problem. 6.21 works fine.

[quote: Now my question is does this problem occurs when using WaveLab as an editor within SONAR? ]

whattarush,

Using Sonar 7.01, I get a crash with WL using it as an editor within Sonar whenever the source file is 16 bit. If the source file is 24 bit all is ok. Again, I first noticed this problem after the installation of 7.01. Didn't notice this happening in 7.00.

Wonder if there is a way to change the default export in 7.01 to wave [Microsoft] and not "wave" when using WL within Sonar? This is my guess for why this is happening. Also think this is a good question for Noel to see if there's a work around for this scenario! Hopefully he is still following this thread.

I checked with one of my 24 bit project and it worked. Things that make you go hmmmm....
