Yes. point your microphone the other direction, or disconnect it. If you don't 
understand that feedback is caused by the output going direct back into the 
input and then coming out of the output and going back in the input and then 
out the output and then back in the input and then out the out and in the in 
and out and in and out and in... etc. etc. etc. -- then you're violating a very 
basic concept of audio. You're generating feedback.

  Okay!  I get that, but I still don't have an answer for why all of a sudden I 
can't get anything to play, and there's feedback when I turn on the spekars.  
Up until now, I haven't had that problem.  Until the last few days I've been 
able to load projects, play, and record without the feedback.  Now, this is a 
new thing that has happened, and it's really got me confused.  Also, should I 
try to turn the mic another direction?  Would that solve the feedback problem?  
Like I said, this is a new problem that has just occured very recently.  
                      God bless you, Dave.

    That's your problem. It's called feedback.

      I wish I had read all my e-mails before replying to the last one; that 
way I could have answered both questions at once, but yes; the microphone is 
facing the speaker.

        Is it facing the speaker?

          The mic is right behind my keyboard and pretty close to my left 
speaker.

            You said that the mike is on, right?  

            Is it close to one of your monitors?
            Is there any chance that this is just a plain old feebback loop?

              Tried double L, triple a, and even control tripple a, but to no 
avail; the same darned thing, and yes; the feedback is constant.  Don't know 
what the heck is going on, but it's really bugging me.  I can't play (and 
certainly can't record,) and it's frustrating.  Thanks for your sugestions 
anyway.  Wish they would have worked.
                                  God bless you, Mike.

                Is the sound you're hearing constant?  

                If it is, you might have an old Sonar bug rearing its head!  

                This is looping being turned on by default...  

                Just hit L twice quickly.  

                If it ain't that, then I can't be sure?  
                Try hitting A 3 times quickly, this'll disarm all the trax...

                  Hi, all.
                       I have a problem that I'm not sure if I caused it or 
not; When I load a project in Sonar and try to get it to play, it won't.  
Instead, what I get is feedback from my speakers, and the microphone is turned 
on, which is weird because when I first load the project I don't have any 
tracks armed.  Also, when I try to read the status bar, I get nothing.  I don't 
know what's going on, but if anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. 
 Thanks in advance, and God bless you.
                                      Bobby Lusk.
