Using Sonar Professional 21.8, build 32 on Windows 10 Pro with the free VST2 plugin Kontakt 5.1 player, with Boulder Sounds "Celtic Uilleann Pipes" sample set loaded . . . .
MIDI source track "Cailín Deas Crúite Na Mbó.mid" is routed to Kontakt, but Kontakt produces no sound output to "Master Audio Bus A" or to the PC sound card.
With Sonar 5 in x32 mode, the Kontakt player did manage to play just one note of the instrument, but with Sonar 2015 x64, no notes are played by the Kontakt VST at all. - The free Kontakt player also says "DEMO" on its main property page. - Could that be the reason why the VST is not working in my Sonar ?
Cakewalk Dimension Pro does load and plays the samples properly using an sfz file, but the instruments do not sound right:
"Bagpipes.sfx"
<region> sample=cB.wav key=c5 lokey=b5

<region> sample=cD.wav key=d#5 lokey=d5

Are there Cakewalk Dimension Pro *.SFZ or *.prog files available for the Boulder Sounds Celtic Instruments sample sets ?
PM please . . . Much appreciated
