Yes, please. We definitely could use a DEFINITIVE troubleshooting guide geared SPECIFICALLY for Sonar. Preferably one that even breaks down into common hardware/system configs with sections regarding common plugins and other programs people may have installed (like Anti Viruses or other programs that may disrupt audio streaming).
Commission Mr. Roseberry to work with Cake tech support to compile the first edition and make it a living document that gets updated online as the program evolves and new issues/conflicts arise.
It could end up being a massive document but it would sure as heck beat having to hunt and peck around the Googles or asking the forum. It would save everyone time and angst and likely reduce the tech support budget so those fellows could focus on more future positive projects.
It is quite apparent that the old Sweetwater and other optimization guides are woefully outdated at this point and many of those tweaks do not apply to Sonar (or make things worse).
Craig, you have the Baker's ears more than the rest of us. Perhaps if you post a thread asking for user input here and set up some kind of meeting with the appropriate folks to see the viability of such an effort we can get this happening.
Heck, I would even pay a modest amount for such a document (like $20). That could be used to pay Mr. Roseberry for his input.
Cheers.
PS: Also a section on proper data/disk management would be excellent. As in the best way to set up drive configs laid out in plain english as well as ways to CORRECT or reconfig data paths for best performance (in case people add drives or are like me and borked up their paths from the get go). scook seems to know a lot about this so getting him involved would be good too but I would also like Jim's input as well. I'd say 90% of the issues I have are likely related to my HDD set up.
