Since moving from PC to laptop recording, I am having some issues. For testing purposes, I have simplified the setup by using only the internal sound card. I create a vsti track with LoungeLizard. When I hit notes on the virtual keyboard, the level meters show that signal is received and I hear sound from the internal speakers. When I hit record, nothing records! By default, the input is routed from the Virtual Controller and the output is routed to the internal soundcard. I have tried other input/output combinations with no success. I have tried the same thing with my normal setup through my NI Komplete Audio 6 interface with the same result. Is there something I am missing? Any and all advice and assistance would be gratefully received.

Did you check your settings for recording on your internal sound card in the configuration screen?

Hello cowboydan. I checked the configuration screen in Sonar which shows the appropriate devices.

I mean your sound card configuration for the laptop itself. Maybe your recording volume is not set up right.

Check your control panel for your audio card.

Yes, cowboydan. I checked that and all appears ok there, as well. As I mentioned, the volume meter in Sonar shows the signal being received.

Did you set the input of the track you are recording on? Output of the track to the master?

Hitting record only arms the track. You have to hit the record button on top of the screen.

I have tried each input/output option available with the same result.

With the track armed are you getting a signal on the track meter? Did you turn on the echo button on the track? It must be some kind of routing of the track .
