Im not neurotic im inquisitive and that is how you learned im sure. I appreciate your help but being condescending dont help anyone who is just looking to hone in their skills and setup. And obviously icaught something thst is a known programing fault made by Cakewalk. So i dont think that is such a bad thing.

I don't take this as confrontational. But then I'm a Gyrene by nature and we have a whole other level of confrontational we get used to.

I was perhaps too subtly for your intensity level telling you to relax. I usually do that by yanking a few chains. I understand this is a big step and you're as excited as a kid at Christmas (or Hannukah or Kwanza or whatever). Did reinstallation fix the issue or did you choose to alter the registry?

Im not easily offended at all. I appreciate these forums as a learning tool. I didnt want to come off as defensive. Im not a vet if that was your meaning of Gyrene but I have had a lot of run ins on other forums with know it all kind of people who live to talk s*%t on the net. Im sure that wasnt your intention. Im am less excited and more feeling like setting this up is a roadblock for me to get past so i can record. Its either burying myself in a computer and getting my emotions out through music or climbing a clock tower. Its just not an easy transition for me considering my past system. I have mix and mastering sessions waiting for me to get this together. I could figure this out myself but my time restraints kind of force me to ask others so i can put some speed on this setup. I am glad you guys are here to help, honestly. I know that this has turned into a long thread but i just dont want to mess things up. And Sonar x1 has proven to be way more complex than previous versions on top of the fact that I have never used a 3 drive system.

Yeah Gearslutz can be tough....
The info there is like trying to get gold....you have to take a ton of material and wash it down to a nugget.

That site has so many rude, its my way or your an idiot outlook and they have no idea what they are talking about. The famed drummer guy there said that the room you record in is more important than anything. I agree the room has a lot to do with a good drum sound but not anymore important than mic placement and tuning and a thousand other variables. I dont like that kind of mind set. Music changes and evolves with experimentation. No one way is the right way. You guys have given great answers that maybe i havent fully understood yet but i will. Ill have more questions if you guys dont mind?

I don't mind....ask away

I didn't think you were a vet. That's me. We don't ever really get it out of our system. Sort of like once you've done a tour with Courtney Love sticking the mic into the main speaker stacks you will ALWAYS ride the mute button during a live show.

Ask any question you like. I may be on occasion sarcastic or yank someone's chain, but I hope never to emulate a GS forum thread. That is true of all the Mod's here.

This by far is my favorite forum ive visited and I have gotten the best and most straight forward answers here than any other site. I dont mind a little chain yanking as long as there is a happy ending. Im installing sonar again and i have unhooked the the other drives to see if that random file will be forced into the right folder on the c drive. A little bit OCD on this but i dont like it being on the audio drive just in case it causes some unforeseen problem. Thank you guys for the help. Im glad that this forum has guys like you that actually know what they are doing. I posted another thread about the correct installation of sonar and where to put the files in the right places here but no replies. If you guys could help on that i would greatly appreciate it. After that its all plugins and a few other software installations. Then i can finally record.
