Hi, having problems with my UA-4FX soundcard. I'm using sonar LE and for some reason it has started not making any sound when I record, then when I play in back it plays the sound perfectly, any suggestions???

Thanks

Welcome to the forum.
What are you recording; MIDI or audio?
Are you not hearing previously-recorded tracks while you record another track, or are you not hearing the track you're recording?
Does the UA have a Monitor knob or software mixer monitor switch that lets you hear what you're recording and have you clicked/adjusted that?

Thanks Greg, Yeah I'm just recording Audio, guitar straight into the UA-4FX it's only just started happening. When recording, no sound can be heard, but when I play it back it, it plays the sound perfectly, very frustrated !!

Okay. You need to either enable monitoring in the UA (check the manual for how to do that), or click the Input Echo button in the track you're recording on.

OK, tried Input Echo, and yes I hear the sound when recording but unfortunately it has a delay sound similar to a guitar delay pedal.

Thanks

Are you using ASIO drivers and have you tried lowering the latency?
Have you checked that SONAR is really using the UA and not the integrated chip (in Preferences- or Options- dialogue depending on which version you use)?
What are your PC specs - is your tool capable of running a DAW fluently?

Don't understand a word of that sorry mate, thanks though.

Check under Options>Audio or click P on the computer keyboard for Preferences to see what Driver Mode you are in. The UA will have good ASIO drivers. Change the Driver Mode to ASIO.
Kalle is asking if your computer is fast enough with enough memory to run SONAR LE easily.

Hi, thanks so much for the responses, I've changed the driver mode to ASIO and still I have exactly the same problem, I should point out that, I've only just started having this problem prior to this it was running perfectly.

So now that you've changed it to ASIO, go to Options>Audio or click the P for Preferences on the computer keyboard and find the ASIO panel button. Click it and reduce the latency to lessen the delay once you turn on Input Echo.
Make sure the audio in all your tracks is routed to valid outputs.
