Hi Frank, I sometimes have drop out issues if I don't freeze the recorded tracks. My Computer isn't overly high spec yet I have one project which has 7 Dimension Pro, two Groove Synths, 2 Rapture, 1 Pentagon I, 1 Z3+, 2 SFZ's and Session Drummer. If they are all unfrozen, Jaws says, "What the F**k is going on!!!" If the tracks are frozen it all works without a problem. Would love a top spec Computer that never drops out. Oh well, off to dream.

Usb is not as good for straming audio.

The 896 certainly is not causing the dropouts, I use one and have virtually no problem with dropouts running hige projects.

However, for me, it's my MOTU 896HD interface that's doing it to me. Since I record all my music and other recordings onto an external hard drive. Isn't there an audio interface of some sort, that doesn't have any risk of audio dropouts? Or are they all the same? ------------------------------------------------------------------ From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Todd Houghton Sent: Friday, January 08, 2010 6:51 PM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: audio drop out Hey Dave and all. Are there any hard and fast rules for setting these parameters? As far as I can tell, nothing in the Caketalking tutorials address this issue. While I'm on the subject, what about all the other items listed in the audio options section that deal directly with Sonar? Are there any guide-lines on making those settings in order to optimize performance? Inquiring minds just want to know.
