[Solved] Waveforms not appearing in audio clips
in audio tracks, wave form pictures are not appearing. the sound still plays and I can still record, but there is no waveform picture. I have tried all the Associated audio files recompute pictures and even changed the Aud.ini settings that were mentioned in previous forum strings. can anyone help?

Have you tried clearing the picture cache? The folder is specified in Preferences > File > Audio Data "Picture Folder"

does it say busy ? and you tried this ?
To redraw waveforms
1. Select the clips that you want to redraw.
2. Right-click a selected clip, and choose Associated Audio Files on the pop-up menu to open the Associated Audio Files dialog box.
3. Click the Recompute Picture(s) button. A dialog box appears, asking if you want to recompute the pictures on the selected clips.
4. Click OK.

New drivers (version 342.01) for the GT 240 graphics card were released on December 14 for Windows 10 64-bit. Are those the drivers you're using?

New drivers installed still no waveforms appear. This is so frustrating!

Have you gone here to see if this is checked ?
Go to Edit > Preferences > Customization - Check the box - Display Waveform Preview While Recording.
If is unchecked, try checking it
Also what version of Sonar and if Platinum, are you using a custom theme ?

Any chance the disk drive is full where your picture cache is stored? Have you looked in there to see if there are any files at all?

Disk drive is not anywhere near full. The picture cache file is empty. I emptied it per the discussion above. Could it have something to do with the color scheme? Maybe it is recalculating the waveforms but using a color the same as the clip background?

Try changing colors in the Inspector and see what happens.

I changed the color for the waveform preview, saved it, exited Sonar and reopened Sonar. opened the project and the waveforms were not there. I did the recalculation of the wave form, but it still does not appear. And there is still nothing in the Picture Cache file. I guess for some reason, it is not creating the waveform picture?

I just fixed it. The Presets in the Edit/Preferences/Customization/colors tab was blank. I changed that to normal and the waveforms appeared. Don't know how that could have changed. I guess I'm back in business for now. Thank you ev everyone who responded. Cakewalk users are awesome!
