Yes to both questions (though it's been a while since I read that document.
Guess I'd better read it again. This is why I don't like e-mailing to this
list much because it seems like I get more questions than answers. I mean I've
been trying all day long to figure out why I can't get my project to play as
well as the cause of the feedback, and everybody seems to be stuck on the
feedback issue. I'm not denying how important that is; it's important, but so
is the other problem. And as I mentioned earlier both problems occured at the
same time. Besides, is it normal for the microphone to be on when you first
load sonar (especially when no tracks are armed?) Also, I've noticed that even
when I'm not in Sonar if the speakers are on, the feedback is there. Whatever
I did, I sure did a good job of it unfortunately. I just wish there was an
easy solution for fixing both problems.

Have you tried turning the gain down for the channel on the FW-1884. Also,
have you read the excellent document which is packed full of information on how
to use the FW-1884 on my website that Sean Cummins and Herman Ferman helpped me
put together?
Here's the URL for it:

Okay. I turned the mic another direction, got back into Sonar, turned the
speakers on, and guess what! Still getting the feedback, and I'm still looking
for a solution to not being able to play my rpojects. Besides that, the
feedback problem didn't occur until the other problem occured so I'm thinking
the two problems are one. Mike mentioned in an earlier e-mail that this might
be a Sonar bug. Well, I think he's right cause this is sure bugging me. ha
ha! Trying to keep a positive attitude about this.
God bless you.

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.

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.
