Is the music you are playing back something you recorded through sonar, or
something you imported? If it's an import, when you play the file say in
winamp or windows media player, does the file play instantly? Try this:
create a new project, insert an audio track, clear the selection, then go to
file>import>audio and load the file; it should be imported at bar 1.
I will also suggest that using your systems sound card for use with sonar is
not a good idea; you can run into problems with your drivers being taken up
by your system and sonar not being able to access them for a undetermined
amount of time, or you can run into sample rate issues...
Regarding the locating the first note of a file, you can certainly do that
in the events view, but I believe this is with midi files only; you can try
telling the events view to show all events and see if the beginning of the
audio shows up as an event...
HTH, D!J!X!

Subject: [ddots-l] Help with Soundcard and Sonar
Hi List,
I am trying to edit a group of audio files for a project for school and
need your help. I have two issues going on. The first is not hearing
anything with my soundcard; the second is not finding any music in my file.
I'll explain further.
First of all, how can I make it so that I hear the audio that I have loaded
in to sonar? I try loading a .wav file but don't hear anything. I have set
the inputs and outputs to my Sigmatel soundcard and set the driver to MME32
bit. Why can't I hear any audio?
My Second problem, I had my sited professor look at the screen to determine
whether something was recorded on track 1. I was at the beginning of the
file and Sonar said that the file was recorded on, but nothing was coming
out of the soundcard. Come to find out, all of the imported tracks begin
playing at bar 150 or at bar 183 instead of at bar 1. I would like for the
tracks to begin playing at measure 1.
Also, is there a key command that will take me to the first recorded note on
the track? This way, I don't have to depend on my professor for sited
assistance to locate the first note on measure 150.
Thanks in advance, your help is greatly appreciated.
Chuy
