I was hoping some big brains could help me out. I bought MODO Bass last weekend and it's not working as expected with my SONAR configuration. When I play MODO with my midi controller many notes don't play and some notes that do play stick. My configuration is
SONAR platinum, Nektar Imapct LX 49 (USB) controller, Focusrite 18i6 (1st gen) audio interface. Intel I7, 16 GB RAM, Nvidia Graphics Card.
What I've discovered through testing.

(works fine except in SONAR)On my laptop, I disabled the Focusrite in SONAR and used the Realtek ASIO drivers and
Modo worked fine in SONAR.
All software and drivers are up to date.
I've tried different USB ports for both the midi controller and audio interface. No luck.
I've uninstalled / reinstalled MODO. Rescanned VSTs in Sonar with no luck.
Uninstalled and reinstalled SONAR.
I notice when I increase the buffer size the issue goes away but latency becomes an issue and MODO isn't playable. MIDI files and bass lines created in piano roll all play fine regardless of the buffer setting.
I have other IK Multimedia VST instruments and they all play fine along with a tone of other instruments that also play fine.
So, there is something about the SONAR / MODO / Focustrite setup that doesn't work for me. I've been dealing with support at IK Multimedia for a week and that hasn't been helpful.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
