NO sOFT SYNTH RESPONSE.
When I load a soft synth, it does nt sound. if If load for instance TTS Cakewalk synth, not only does no sound come out, but click on the 'sample button" on the synth itself produces no sound. This is verified by meters not moving during playback. I have reloaded the Sonar x2 and no improvement. I dont know where to start trouble shooting. This is new problem.

What is your sample rate set to? For TTS1 it needs to be either 44.1 or 48.

I have this problem on occasion especially with Dim LE.
Sometimes deleting it and loading a new synth fixes it. Sometime a complete reboot of the whole system is in order.
There seems to be a glitch with Sonar and softsynths.
But then it s good to double check your input and output settings too. You'll get nothing if the track is sent to NONE or a silent bus.

Never had a "glittch" with Softsynths in over 10 years. I use tons of softsynths in all of my projects-no problem. Sonar has some issues but softsynths isn't one of them.

What are you using to play the softsynth? Midi file, Midi keyboard? Need lots more info.

I wont argue, but I've had trouble with all of them one time or another using 5 different versions of Sonar on several different computers, as my other post addresses.

Did you edit your registry to remove the old keys before re-installing? If you didn't, you could quite easily end right back at square one with the same issues

soft synths have been a strong part of x1 and x2 imo but there are still occations now where i insert a synth and im fiddling around with it for2 or 3 minutes getting the I/O/s right and such.
1-check your tracks input/out flow
2-make sure your input echo button is pressed(this one..lol gets me everytime.
3-sometimes by simply pressing play on the transport resets the midi engine.
4-click the midi reset button on the control bar(where you see the 1:01:00
learn these 4 steps and live by them.im sure theres a few more peole wil add which is cool because im always open to learning a new one myself.
*if none of these work,please-Re-read bristol jonesey's post.
thats very important.

There should be no need to reload the software..... but if you've already started...... finish it.
On my web site> music & recording> MC4/5> scroll down and look at the stuff there for working with TTS. It might help you a bit if you're not real familiar with TTS and synths.
Be sure you have a midi track in place and it's assigned to the right TTS channel and track and you have a viable patch and bank selected.
One tiny thing out of place or directed incorrectly will result in no sound.
I occasionally have comm issues between the computer and the interface and a complete reboot of BOTH from a cold start is sometimes needed to set things right.
Also check that you do not have the track muted or the volume pulled all the way down.... I can not remember how many times I have rebooted only to eventually track the "no sound" issue to a fader all the way down.
Load a different synth such as Cakewalk Sound center. It comes up running a default sound sample unlike TTS where you have to load things and assign things. I found TTS to be a very capable and at times, especially at first, a bit hard to understand. CSC is a much simpler synth in regard to making it work.
Be sure the sound card is working by playing an audio track.
Maybe that will point you in the right direction.
