Sounds from Sonar

I am not getting any sounds out of my Sonar studio 8.5. Please help me!!!!

I have UA-25EX interface, 4 Gb. of RAM, windows 7 64-bit professional, 1TB. hardrive,

what have you done so far?  when you first connected the UA25EX did you install the windows drivers for it?  did you run the wave profiler in sonar after installing it (OR change to ASIO driver mode).  do you have headphones or powered speakers connected to the UA25EX?

in the OPTIONS>AUDIO tab, is the UA25EX listed as the PLAYBACK and RECORDING TIMING MASTER?  (and NOT the SPDIF portion of the UA25EX, you want analog only - i'm assuming).

in your project that you're trying to get sound out of, do you have the UA25EX output 1/2 set for your master bus output?

what kind of sound are you trying to get out of it?  audio?  MIDI? (not sound - data only - you need softsynths or hardware synths for midi output).

we need a lot more info on what you're doing and what you're trying to do before we can really help.

Ican't hear anything from sonar and I might switch DAWS

Why bother 

Have you ever had sound out of Sonar ?

Is your sound device (mentioned in your earlier posts) connected to speakers?

Are the speakers on?

List the steps you have taken which failed to make sound. that will help folk determine where you are going wrong.

eg View > Synthrack > Insert Instrument > TTS-1 > etc...

heh heh - that frickin' attitude makes me want to spent my time helping...

 Nicely played Stu.


You might want to go out and buy a Mac system and Pro Tools HD with all the bells and whistles.


I found that most problems can be fixed by throwing money at it.

I might switch cars as the filler cap for the petrol is on the wrong side.

Way to represent! Hopefully the admins delete this **** before too many noobs see it.

Oh get a grip! It doesn't strike you as odd that one may switch DAWS (at at least $200) because they can't get any sound out of it?

It strikes me as odd that people have to attack others on the internet about a piece of spftware.

Mike, I have a HUGE problem. I'm thinking you may be able to help my out. Did I mention its a real BIG problem

CJ, I have my checkbook out and have been practicing making loads of 0's.

How big is your problem?


It might be easier just to tell me how many 0's to put after the 1.

errrrrrrr,

Cakewalk Professional for Windows 3.0

worked straight out of the box

honest

and I could go on and name a few more that work straight out of the box
pretty much, meaning no struggles - just a couple of dongles to switch
remember software mostly is and was for this machine or that one 
not any    Cake 3.0 won't load into windows 7 or vista...I never tried xp 
If you don't have the right computer set-up for ANY program, it's just not gonna work
I only say this because SOME folks don't know it
OBVIOUSLY
they have only had experience with software that works straight from the get go.
You trying to tell me you bought a computer that didn't already have an installed  OS 
and a whole bunch other software running out of the box?
(well,....on second thought  some of you may have) 
Where did you think they got the idea that SONAR would work right away from?

Actually, on a machine with with a quad core i7 and Windows 7
SONAR works pretty much straight out of the box
just a few things to attend to and away you (can) go
the problem is
its complicated beyond the initial do dahs
lots of new rituals to learn
and if you have never done any work using any other kind of music software 
this must really seem a confusing endless series of ??????????s

hell,      I       got it to work.............
sort of
there are a lot of things to learn about process
but the very best way to do it is have at it
so what it crashes?
reboot

save your work, often 
and try not to get so frustrated 
you goin' somewhere?
calm down and you could possibly get there
from here
nothing worthwhile comes easy

and, look at all these good folks who are here and want to help   
 

or
change daws
lots to choose from
most of them work well enough to record tracks and mix em and make mp3s
bet most are easier to learn too

just my experience and  personal point of view

I have tried everything that is listed above and I have even tried reinstalling the driver for my interface, because i have tried all the troubleshooting that is listed in the manual I now think that it actually isn't a problem with Sonar itself, but a problem with the interface/and or the interface driver. I am only frustrated because I have been trying to get this running for three months. At first I didn't have a fast enough computer but now after getting a very fast machine it is still not working.
