hey everyone, I'm using an Alesis multimix 8 usb mixer into my Sonar x1 daw, windows 7. Everytime i record something through the mixer i get a lot of high pitched unwanted noise/hiss. The sound of the instrument (bass) is decent, but i cant seem to get rid of this hiss. any suggestions? any help or comments would be GREATLY appreciated.

I have just updated Sonar 8 PE to 8.3.1, and I was working with Guitar Rig 4 Pro.

A lot of people say that the GT10 does not sound decent through a guitar amp. I thought that I would put a track together using the GT10 into a Marshall TSL and then Micing it and recording it.

The guitars used were a Strat in the intro and a Tokai Love Rock for the "harder" parts.

Im using Sonar 8 to record vocals and Im having mic issues. Normally when I choose my input I select my microphone and it says left right or stereo. But lately it just says mono and it sounds distorted and awful. Im not sure if I'm having mic issues or software issues. I feel like it might be my audio settings but I'm not sure. I cant figure it out. Please help.

How can I set to where I can hear my voice when recording in Sonar 8? There is a button that does this on the audio track next to mute, solo etc. but it has such a delay that it is useless. If anyone knows a different way to hear myself or how to fix the delay please help.

Hey, guys. I have come to the point where I must decide what DAW software to purchase. I plan to rely heavily on MIDI orchestration/instrumentation as well as live instrumentation for my music. Because I plan to incorporate MIDI, I have been told that it would be to my benefit to buy Cubase 5, as its MIDI capabilities are some of the best.

I managed to add soundforge 9 to the "tools" menu in Sonar 8 PE, and I'm even able to open audio files within soundforge to edit them (destructively, it is), but the thing is, every time I finish editing that one audio file and go back to sonar, the program (sonar) crashes!

My Cakewalk Sonar 8 Producer Edition gives no sound when playing back tracks and it does not register audio/MIDI input. A track imported from a CD into Sonar plays perfectly when played back from the programme. I have a pair of Behringer MS40 monitors, but I use mostly a pair of SONY earphones as monitors. WMP and Realplayer and other sound sources produce sound in the monitors.

[My DAW: AMD2 5000+ (2x 2.6 Ghz), 4Gb RAM, 2x 1.5TB HD, WinXP. Mostly used for guitar and drum-machine VSTi work]

I've been using Cubase SX for a while now. And for some reason it's been really dragging recently, stuttering and struggling.
Do CPU's get old and tired?

I'm drawing a blank here...

I used to have, some years ago, Sonar 3 PE and Sound forge 6. every time I right-clicked on an audio clip Sonar gave the option of editing it WITHIN SOUND FORGE (as if going to it, edit it and then close it and "come back" to the track view in sonar).
