Preferences Changes Itself
Sometimes, options in Preferences change without any action from me. For example, sometimes I will open a project and start to go to work, and most of the tracks won't play. Upon inspection, I see that the Ins and Outs are set to things that don't make sense (for example, a MIDI track may have the Console as the input).
When I open Preferences, I can see that the options under Control Surface have changed, even though I have not been in Preferences.
This is the most recent example, but I have seen other device options change automatically in Preferences.
Has anyone ever seen values change on their own in Preferences?

I've seen that when I had a driver issue. I went back to an older interface driver and had better luck. It was weird.

I vaguely remember someone saying this sort of thing can happen if control surfaces got unplugged/replugged or powered down - that sort of thing, not for the current project, but any of that just happening at some point, and then things get altered.
I am dim, and my memory is dimmer still, so the above could be WAY off base as well, it's just in my head that way for some reason so I thought I would mention it.

Like Bob said, I've seen it just with Control Surfaces and only if I've started Sonar with one of them unplugged, then things can get a bit scrambled.

I made about 3 project templetes and never had this issue again.
my main beef was having to reset preferences every time I stared a new project.
give it shot and tell me what happens.
