I upgraded to the latest update and now when I play my midi keyboard it is in time with the metronome but when I Record the midi is recording ahead of the metronome and timing is off. I have never had something like this happen before, I have always recorded my keyboards in midi, adjusted notes and then played it back and recorded the audio.  I hope this is something simple thanks in advance

Coincidently, I'm experiencing the same issue.  I've had Sonar for many, many years.  I rarely make any changes to my configuration.  I can't remember if anything major changed in my set up recently.  But here I am, pulling my hair out trying to find the root cause.  
 
Even as I record a signal live, it appears to be tracking with time.  It isn't until the recording is stopped when the image is repainted on the track approx. 1/16 ahead of the place it was originally recorded.
 
Need help badly.  Already spent 1 hour trying to trouble shoot this.
 

same issue here.. help!

Thanks for reporting this!

Have you reported the issue ?
 
You would get better results by posting your issue in the Problem reports forum where Cakewalk staff can see it.
 
 

I would suggest decreasing your buffer (ASIO) when recording - it may decrease the latency.   I have to do that when I am regularly recording...   This may be the solution until there is a solution...

You can experiment with "MIDI Timing Offset" found in Advanced Preferences/Audio/Sync and Caching. Negative values will delay the MIDI.

Thanks for all the updates but what is strange this issue only started after the latest update. I am going to install to a new pc to see if that resolves the issue

New PC did not resolve this issue UGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
