For the last few months Sonar crashes constantly...Same setup I've had for years with no problems whatsoever...all of a sudden I'm getting blue screens every time I work on something.  Started end of November and I was hoping for a fix but it just keeps happening.  I have updated all drivers and still same result.  Been using Cakewalk for about 30 years and have never seen anything like this.  Everything else on PC is fine only Sonar crashing.  Have to start a new project and am at a loss...anyone have any ideas?

What does the blue screen message actually say it will normally quote a .sys file as the cause. That is the driver that is failing.

I uncheckeed this in preferences:
[  ] Use MMCSS

 

Then OK and Crash:

Crash C00000005 (Access Violation)

Enabling that again will freeze Sonar. Second time: Crash C00000005.

Also checking / unchecking 'Enable MMCSS for ASIO driver' will always crash Sonar. The new setting is saved to registry and workaround is to let Sonar crash and reopen it with the new setting.

Repro, anyone?

Another crash in Preferences when changing MIDI driver Mode: from MME to UPW.

You obviously have some serious problem with Sonar, did it all start after installing the latest update? Try deleting the file "AUD.INI" in the folder "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Cakewalk\Sonar",  when Sonar starts, this file will be recreated, maybe this will fix your problem. If this does not help, you will definitely need to completely uninstall Sonar/Cakewalk by Bandlab and thoroughly clean out any remnants, folders and registry entries, in order to try to install it all from scratch.

I did a fresh install and still happening.  This problem is only with "Sonar"...I am in the middle of a project and had to go back to CW the "free" version and all is fine.  Just with "Sonar". All started with November's update..

Just tried this and so far so good...still testing and pushing things to see if she crashes but so far...so good!  Thanks.

I was just conincidentally experimenting with this setting on a new laptop with a new interface (Behringer UMC404HD) a day or two ago, and encountered no issues. I also just now switched from MME to UWP MIDI with no issue.

I reinstalled Sonar but the plugin behaves exactly like before.
Probably glitching is a plugin issue.

Minidump.txt files says:

Faulting Module: C:\WINDOWS\System32\RPCRT4.dll
App Version: 31.03.0.010 (Beta)

It sounds like you have hardware issues or a virus on your system. 

Attach the minidump file here for the developers to have a look at. 

Also: report the issue to Xfer Records.
