Thanks guys! SO glad I reached out to you! I'm up and running with your sound advice. Much appreciated... happy days! Craig

First my specs: Computer: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 DAW: Sonar Platinum 22.10.0 BUILD 19 [2016.10] – x64 Sound Card: Roland Octa-Capture Midi Interface: MOTU Micro Lite I have seamlessly been using 8Dio /Kontakt-based libraries for some time. That is until I went to open Sonar Platinum and I got this message: There are no audio devices for the current driver model on your system. Please go to Edit / Preferences / Audio / Playback and Recording and choose a different driver model. Thing is after that message, Sonar wouldn't open. I tried re-booting... nothing. Then I updated Sonar and still it gave this same message and wouldn't open. Suddenly it opened (why??) and I immediately tried to look at the Preferences and check the audio settings. Under Devices there were none listed! After some research, I tried changing to MME (32 bit) and the Octa-Capture audio device reappeared. So far so good, until I tried to play my Kontakt based instruments and the latency was about a full second between pressing the key and the sound. The midi recording of those same instruments played back fine, EXCEPT out of sync with the DAW. Tried changing the latency and the midi buffer, but nothing addressed that. I'm at my wits end as this problem came on so suddenly and, of course, I'm in the midst of a big scoring project. Help? Thanks in advance. Craig Parsons
