using windows ie9 and I cant get that ribbon to come up for the life of me.
every once in a while it flashes like it wants to show up but then its gone just as fast as I seen it.
id say it works for me 10% of the time.

Yes I was able to view your pictures on Flicker

Im having probs reading your posts cause its hard to sort through what feels like anger and comments made toward everything there is.  

We are here trying to help out of the goodness of our hearts

As far as no sound,  Im sure others will jump in and give you a hand if they feel some sort of appreciation.

Not trying to sound rude,  its just a feeling Im getting trying to read and help out

I don't know why anyone would try to help you with your grouchy, cynical attitude. Lighten up. We don't work for Cakewalk.  I've been using Cakewalk and Sonar for at least 10 years and its a great program, but like anything worthwhile, there's a learning curve. It you just want something to just plug and play, download Audacity for free. 

Have you even looked at the Getting Started guide or the Help Menu?  You also didn't mention what version of Windows you're using and whether it was 32 or 64-bit.. 

Since you're using the built-in sound chip on the laptop, you should set the driver mode to WDM or MME. I doubt it supports ASIO mode. To get the best results with Sonar, you should invest in an audio interface. Your computer is marginal to run this program. 

Go to Preferences - Audio - Devices and make sure your built-in sound device is selected. Probably Realtek or some other fifty cent sound chip. 

Sonar has lots of instruments called softsynths. Click on Insert-Softsynth and select the TTS-1. Its easy to use and I'll bet it sounds a lot better than the Yamaha. 

If you have a MIDI file (or load one of the Tutorial files that come with Sonar), set the output of the MIDI track to the TTS-1. 

Hit play and you should hear something assuming your soundcard is setup properly. 

Can you play audio files? Drag and drop a WAV file onto an audio track and see if that works. That will tell you if your soundcard is setup properly. 

People in these forums do try to help beginners out, but you need to cooperate and show at least a halfway decent attitude. Please.

In the list of links, select "direct link." It gives you a standard URL. You can just click the icon to the left of it to copy it. Also note you can drag photos directly from your desktop to the imgur page and they will upload automatically.

Yeah  I can get them to load into imgur fine,

I was hoping to just copy the Direct Link and post it in here and it would put the picture in the post.

It dont seem to be working as far as posting it any way I try it.

I was only successful at getting it to add a link to it.


In the end I think Photobucket was fast and it is a free acct anyway.

The thought was good though, I appreciate it

As far as I know you cannot post photos in this forum by the traditional BB forum method (i.e. the [IMG] tags). You have to use the "Insert an image" icon in the toolbar and paste a standard URL in the popup that appears. So you can do that with imgur, you just have to remember to use the normal image link instead the BB form one.

I use the IMG tags with no problems. The bb codes are the only way I've found to use this forum with firefox. I'm getting pretty quick at typing the codes on the fly...
