"Steinberg Generic Low Latency ASIO driver" nope...
These are the only ASIO in registry:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ASIO\QUAD-CAPTURE
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ASIO\Realtek ASIO
Regarding "Reset AUD.INI via Preferences > Audio > Configuration File > Reset..."
So maybe do the "Reset AUD.INI" via "Reset Config..." not sure and where is the "AUD.INI" located?
In any case not sure this is relevant if I have the right drivers and no other ASIO.
The Driver current settings, but several different configs tested:
No Midi, my bands song example here is with 81 tracks sorted in groups:
A few plugins are used, but almost exclusive Cakewalk (and I have currently no 3rd party installed), this runs without as hitch in CWbyB, but not in this new Sonar 2025. They have the same settings, I used default in CWbyB.
Yes I have other audio Software installed (I'm an Acoustic Engineer and Musician), but don't run them in parallel unless is use suspend mode etc, since Sonar is using the the Audio interface exclusively.
To test this I need to close Sonar 2025 completely and wait a second, after this start CWbyB. If you start either Bandlab DAWs to quickly the Audio interface in not released yet, this has always been like that. When using suspend mode etc. many other this can happen, so I try not to use it.
By going back and forth between the two DAWs there is only CW Sonar 2025.07 playback Dropouts/Stuttering. I don't have a reference on CW Sonar 2025.06, since I just installed this to test for the band, since we are using the DAW live for rehearsal and mix etc. on other PCs as well. Not currently testing until this is resolved.
CWbyB was running default, since no issued were observed, again only in CW Sonar 2025.07
