Well, managed to locate & download drivers, so now input & output for the audio is ok, but now just the issue of midi. I've tried going into preferences & selecting under outputs "1:Microsoft GS wavetable Synth 1 & General midi, but unsure if I'm on the right track. If so, what should I do for inputs? Very appreciative of your help & guidance as I've not had to set this up before.

I have a Behringer XENYX Q1002USB model so looks like I may have to download the drivers. Having trouble finding them on their site though, so if anyone is able to point me in the right direction I'd be most grateful.

Hi again, I’ve tried opening Bandlab & several messages occur: “There are no audio devices for the current driver model on your system. Please go to Edit/Preferences/Audio/Playback & recording & choose a different driver model”. I’m using the Behringer & thought I’d selected ASIO but obviously not. The other message which appears as a result is that “The following tracks & buses are currently assigned to a silent hardware. [Master] & will be silent ...until their outputs are reassigned to an appropriate hardware output”. The Beringher is connected via USB & appears to be connected correctly. I’ve had a look at your video John & in it you show a midi interface is needed. Is this what I should be looking for, & if I’ve missed anything please let me know? Thanks for your help

Thanks for your advice. It's much appreciated. I've decided to use Bandlab & not the Sonar VS100 version, so will just be a matter now of selecting ASIO mode as suggested in Bandlab. I'll go through the tutorials & find what I'm looking for.

Thanks John for your help. I've used Sonar since 2013 but lost the product code when reloading it after a PC rebuild. As you can tell, I'm a novice when it comes to having to reset things up. I created a Bandlab account & wanted to keep using the Sonar VS100, which is what I thought I could do as it’s included on the Bandlab site, but was just unsure how to go about getting a new product code. When I set Bandlab up I selected Sonar VS100 inputs & outputs so played my workfiles ok but couldn’t record. It was here that I was wondering if I needed to download Sonar again to obtain a product code, or if I need one. I'm running Windows 10 so hopefully should be ok there. I’ll watch the tutorials. Really grateful for all your advice.

Hi, In my original post I was a bit unclear as to what I was needing help with. I've been using Sonar VS100 by Cakewalk but when I had my PC rebuilt I had to reload it I couldn't find my product code, consequently I cant use MIDI. I've downloaded Bandlab [not the app] but it's telling me my audio/MIDI is disconnected. Is it still possible to use Bandlab to record or do I need to obtain another product code? I've just purchased a Behringa interface in case I'm unable to use go any further. If I do have to use the Berhinga how do I change my settings? Help!

Hi, I've recently upgraded to Bandlab from VS 100. I went to reload VS 100 back onto my PC after it was rebuilt but couldn't find the product code [unbelievable!]. So thought Id give using it a go anyway by selecting VS 100 in midi in & out. I could play my work files, but not record. I've just bought a Beringher interface but am unable to play or record & noty sure what to do from here. Help.
