I have a quad-core system with 3 gigs of ram, and that issue happened to me with sonar 6 and a project that had a lot of softsynths. I remember at the time Phil telling me that he didn't think it was my system at all. He said my system was plenty to handle such a project. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Wicketts To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2010 11:22 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: big problem Hi Omar, Only had it happen on one project, it too had a lot of softsynths, I have around 3GB of Ram and Phil Muir told me my system is quite fast in the processing department. Couldn't tell exactly what speed processor as I'm not very computer savvy when it comes down to specification. I still think it was my system not being able to handle so many softsynths and effect pluggins.

Steve, I had a similar problem with a project a while ago while using sonar 6. I can't recall if I'd reported it in a report to dancing dots or not. I do remember, though, that the project had a lot of softsynths, and after a certain number of them, jaws/ct reported the synthrack as empty. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Wicketts To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2010 6:28 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: big problem Hi Ralf, Are all softsynths unfrozen. The reason I ask is, I had a project where there were around 15 or more softsynths and my system was saying there was nothing in the synth rack. I froze most of the softsynths, went back to the synth rack and it was functioning correctly. Maybe your system just isn't coping with that many applications. Just unfreeze the particular softsynth you wish to make changes too and freeze it again after. Hope this helps.

I can't make the automation in one of the synths. What to do now?
