Hello all...
 
It take me about 15-20 seconds (at best) and my projects are loading slower and slower. 
This is with about 15 plug ins(Waves, BT, and MJUCJr) total.  Using EZDrummer2 (12 tracks) and approx. 16 other audio tracks with 6 buses...
Network card has been disabled...
Defragged and Registry cleaned...
Current OS set up based on Cakewalk's Win7 audio recommendations...
ASIO driver
 
Rig is an 4th gen i5 Intel cpu (3.4), 24 GB RAM, Asus motherboard, Win 7 Pro, Echo Audiofire4 interface (with the latest drivers)
 
Any ideas to implement?
Thanks you, Freq

Same here as far as the SSD. Projects will load slower with the more soft synths and FX

All SSD's in my daw and still get approx 20 seconds to load 10-15 track projects.

Hmmm... maybe SSD is the way to go...  Seems like I'm getting a "Sonar not responding" message more and more, then it finally loads.  It even happens periodically with just a few plug ins inserted...
 
Thanks for the tips!

Usually caused by large amounts of midi data.

Mine can take quite a while but its usually big Kontakt libraries, BFD3, and Superior Drummer that cause the delay. If I was averaging 20 seconds I would be ecstatic.

Only midi data is from a looped EZdrummer2 synth...
 
Maybe 20 seconds isn't that bad then?
Thx...

But how far out did you drag it?
