New Cakewalk doesn't see I/O box but Sonar 4 does

[Steve Leighton]

I am brand new to this so I first installed Sonar 4. Yes, I actually bought the disk on Reverb.com for twenty bucks. A friend gave me a really cool I/O box, an M-Audio Fast Track Ultra. It's strange because sometimes the new free edition of Cakewalk will "see" that I/O box and sometimes it won't. This morning I went back to the Sonar 4 project and it saw the I/O box just fine but my newest edition of Cakewalk did not. I even removed the Fast Track for the Sonar 4 project and the new Cakewalk still didn't see it.  Hmmm.... and clues? Thanks

Try a different driver mode (MME, WASAPI, ASIO) and see if it shows up. Did you install drivers for it?

My new edition of Cakewalk is seeing the I/O  box just fine today. I was working with it for over an hour and then the whole screen just went white , sort of like a thick fog but I could still see it
