msmcleod. Yep! That's the culprit! Thanks!

profwacko - Will do. I opened a case but have not received any updates for a week. I'm not at liberty to share a link to the audio tracks (per Noels' suggestion), at least not publicly, but I can do so if requested via the Cakewalk ticket. They haven't requested any links or files yet. I've noticed that things become a little more responsive if I slide the subgroups section over to the left of the screen, although it's still not great. I also noticed that metering on the individual tracks (such as the CA-2 compressor in the pro channel and the performance indicator at the top) gets sluggish as well. The issue appears to worsen as I add more tracks and FX to a project. My system has plenty of horsepower so that's not the root cause. The same large projects worked fine in CbB.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I tried most of them (except disabling the C-state, I don't want to mess with that) but no luck. I'll wait for a response from Cakewalk.

Yes. It occurs when audio is not playing. I will submit a report. I was hoping it was just a setting tweak.

I just uninstalled this version, and reinstalled the previous version of Sonar that I demo-ed before purchase, and the issue does not occur , so I believe this is a bug. I then re-installed the current version and the problem came back. Bummer. Here is a Youtube link:

Sonar, CbB Custom built i7 7820X 32Gb RAM 2 x 1TB system SSD Win 11 NVIDIA GTX 1070 SSL 2+ interface All drivers are current.

Did that, too. Also uninstalled and reinstalled Sonar. No change.

I just subscribed today and installed 2024.09. When switching from track view to console view, there is a noticeable lag when Sonar draws the console screen. In addition, If I select multiple faders and slide them up or down, they do not move in a smooth, simultaneous manner (as they typically did in Cakewalk). Also, when selecting a fader, the mouse pointer disappears when moving it which is also odd. I tried turning on and off the DPI and GPU acceleration options but this did not solve the issue. I also installed the most recent Nvidia drivers but no luck. Am I missing something or is this a bug?
