Playback will not stop


Recommended Posts

I'm encountering a playback problem I've not seen before. In the last few weeks while playing a song in Sonar (new version) I can't stop the playback. My mouse, keyboard have no affect on stopping it or allowing me to tap on anything at all. I have to use Control Alt Delete to stop and get out of it. And one odd thing is the window I'm viewing shows the song playing in a loop (it stays in one particular area like between the same chorus and a verse over and over) but the music continues to play until the end of the song then it stops or sometimes restarts.

What is your sample rate, Bit Depth and Buffer size?

Is “Plug-In Load Balancing” enabled? - Try with this disabled if enabled.

Because it’s not mentioned, I am going to assume you are using native ASIO driver mode.

I’ve also had same issue of playback continuing, on one or two simple projects with only about 4 or 5 plug ins and couple of short audio clips… weird. Only way of stopping  was as OP describes.

i thought maybe my old pc  finally struggling to cope with latest updates, which I think partly true as same project is ok on another machine. Strange though as never done it before on much bigger projects. I’ll try the above check. Thanks

Sample Rate is 44100, Bit Depth is 24. Yes using ASIO. I just unchecked Load Balancing. Thanks I will give that a whirl...

This has happened with small and large projects for me.

Do you have a dialog open in the background perhaps?  Try using CTRL + TAB to see if there are any other windows waiting for input.

I used CTRL + TAB and nothing came up.
