Have you run the free Resplendent LatencyMon program, it will tell you what process is causing your latency issue. This is going to be of no comfort to you, I purchased a new PC in September last year, i9 13900k from a DAW PC specialist company, could not get it to run an acceptable audio program. Sent it back in the end, got an i9 14900K from another DAW PC specialist it runs fine. Try running LatencyMon and see what it tells you.

@Jon White you give no system details, I regularly run Sonar at 96 samples using synths from Arturia, Cherry Audio, GForce, Korg, along with guitar through an amp sim. Recording and monitoring in real-time, without issue. Perhaps if you provided details of your computer, cores threads speed, amount of RAM, number of disks, your audio interface make model and the audio driver, the number of samples in the buffer. The "minimal" loading plugins might help. Failing to provide such information in the first instance and just dissing the product is not indicative of someone who really wants help, just to rant.

Thanks and thank you for the comments on Soundcloud.

I believe the scanner has been updated to account for this issue, however it would be wise to report to support as a precautionary measure.

@altoricky try a rest and rescan. Steinberg thought it be really great to change the "where are VST3's stored" rules by adding the requirement to a directory with .VST3 on the end so. Where say it would have been; Program files/common files/VST3/joessuperinstrument as the top level directory for the plugin, it has now got to be; Program files/common files/VST3/Joessuperinstrument.vst3 as the top level directory for the plugin.

Thank you sir. Nice to know that my keyboard meandering resonates with someone else.

@FreeEarCandy you are the second person to bring Schrodinger's cat to my attention this week. Such that through the power of thought experiment alone, I fired up the Falcon, nipped back to 1935, and checked what he actually put in the box, they are not going to be happy if they ever open that thought.

Mix sound fine here perhaps a little hot need to turn down the volume on SC.

Most has probably been said, but it is hot for my taste, the snare sounds like it has had all the life squashed out of it. But if you are happy with it then... As noted above the mix needs some work, apologies.

The mix is tad hot for my tastes, other than that a mix and production up to your normal standard

Time is an illusion, a mathematical construct created by mathematicians to make their math work, simples. Mix sounds fine here, everything has a place, vocals clear and well placed.

Nice, nothing to add.

Nice Bjorn, very easy on the furry ears, mix works here, left you a like and a comment on Soundcloud too. (OK Mr t)

Thanks Mark, I get certain geners need a chord formula, not sure I create for any specific genre. Appreciate your, time, ears, and your comments.

Thanks, nice to know my meandering noises are enjoyed.

@Amberwolf presumably you have tried. 1. A reset and rescan in the scaner. 2. There is no reason why you can't reinstall Cakewalk. You say you played with Platinum and it's been wrong since then, did you reinstall Sonar after installing Platinum? Did you do custom uninstall when removing Platinum? The scanner is slightly different and uses a SQL type database now. I would check that has not got file locked.

@Metalhawk what Ryzen CPU are you using, is it a recent one? I am aware there were two, historically, Ryzen's that didn't play well with music production, sorry don't know which one's as I have always been an Intel furry alien. Just an experience thing I suspect, having used PC/Intel computers since the 1980's.

Thank you @Mr No Name.

Do you have an Bandlab account? If you are asking about Sonar you need to have an account and paid your subscription fee. If you are referring to CbB the free version you still need an account. Just use the activate option under Help.

@Amberwolf why are you not using the plugin version of MIDI guitar 2 in Cakewalk, it works reasonably well. Wish he would get the Windows version working of MIDI guitar 3.

Thank you Sir, nothing like the odd jazz note to keep one on your claw tips.

Do you have it set to Workspaces = None? If not you are using a workspace.

You have tried increasing the samples just fir the freeze? No need to disable wired networking it is only WiFi networking that screws with DAW operation.

Can it handle polyphonic audio?

You are incorrect in your assumption regarding my level of prejudice towards yourself, neither publicly nor privately. I have no feelings one way or the other towards you, I do have a task to do in these forums and that is to keep things as correct as possible. You have repeatedly been told by staff the position of Bandlab regarding to topic of perpetual licensing but persistently bang the drum, possibly believing if you bang it long enough and hard enough you will brow beat the management into concededing to your demands. However your actions have now had a detrimental affect on this thread. Apologies to @Loody1985 but the actions of one give me little choice but to lock it. As has been suggested you try the free trial. Sonar has functionaly moved on from CbB, the basic workflow is the same as CbB, though it looks a little different due to the method used to generate the GUI. There have been serious improvements to the Audio engine and general operation of the whole program. You are correct in there is now being a charge to use it. There is a choice of monthly or yearly subscription, like so many audio software vendors are now doing, Roland, UVI, etc. The price is not unreasonable historically SONAR cost $450 to buy new, yes it was a perpetual licence which you had to renew each year to get the latest updates, features and bug fixes. The subscription offers near monthly bug fixes, new features when they become available and very diligent support when bugs are found. It is your choice stay with CbB or join the many that are helping Cakewalk Sonar to be a excellent audio tool.
