New Octa-Capture drivers, V 1.5.1 - Distortion problem - FIXED
I downloaded the latest 1.5.1 driver for the Octa-Capture and installed it. I used it for the first time this morning on some previously recorded material in Sonar. I was getting some distortion on the singer that seemed to be caused by the bass track, that I never had before. The Vocal track without the bass track was OK, the bass track by itself is OK, but with the two there was distortion (intermodulation distortion).
I tried several things and then remembered that I had upgraded the Octa-Capture driver. I uninstalled the 1.5.1 driver, restarted the PC and then installed the 1.5.0 driver. Loaded the same Sonar project and no more distortion, "intermodulation distortion" or low frequency distortion - what it sounded like.
I haven't tried reloading the 1.5.1 drivers (which I will do at some point) to see if it is the driver.
A heads up, in case someone else runs into the same problem.

***FIXED - A reload of the 1.5.1 driver has fixed the problem..
