Sonar recovery file successful,audio gone,artist unhappy,
but not as unhappy as the engineer. S6.2 crashed after resizing the audio scale on a track during record, and offered to write a recovery file, of course I said yes, but the entire most recent section of recording was gone. After this "recovery file"message appeared, the HDD was still writing, naturally I thought the wavs would be intact.. No wavs from the second section of recording in the audio folder associated with this project. So much for confidence recording. The markers were there though. I guess I have should have knocked on wood when I recently replied to a post from someone else having trouble, alluding to how well S6 was working for me.
Sometimes you're the windshield, somtimes you're the bug.
The hardware: ASUS A8R-MVP, x2 4400 2GB RAM, FF800.
It's an ADK Sonar Special.

That's weird. Usually all audio, even associated with deleted clips, remains in audio folder. Did you use per project audio folder? Your lost audio might be in Sonar's default folder.

Thank you for the reply, I use per-project folders, I didn't look in the Global Audio Folder, Ill have a look.

In the future, have autosave enabled if you dont already. Since I started using it and external drives I have never lost a thing. Good Luck.

After every take I CNTRL-S. Even while recording. The time between autosave might be too far even if its save every 15 seconds. Or save after every 1-5 event. Ive CNTL-S during recording.

I am beginning to think that autosave could be the source of the problems.
Prior to 6.2, I would occasionally read about people having problems with autosave. I wouldn't pay much attention because up until 6.2 and 6.2.1, autosave has worked flawlessly for me. Now (since 6.2 and 6.2.1), I am getting regular crashes that all coincide with an autosave.
Where does the "crash dump" information go? I'd like to send it off to Cakewalk support to see if it might shed some light on the problem.
Thanks,
nhb
