Hi,
I'm totally new to this so forgive my ignorance. I've just bought an edirol ua25 soundcard and it came with sonar le. I've installed the drivers and tested that i can hear sound, it plays mp3s etc fine, no probs. When i open the sample content in sonar, i can't hear anything, i am going mad. Please help! once again i apologise if i'm being really dumb
thanks

Apr 06, 2006 09:28 am If you're playing mp3, etc from windows, then that part is working, so that's good.
if sonar isn't playing back, then there's probably a preferences / options page that tells sonar what sound device to play through. I'm thinking that you need to tell sonar to play through the correct device.
Sorry if you've already done that, but it's not stated, so, worth a shot.
This would most likely be covered in the manual, though I haven't read a sonar manual.
Apr 06, 2006 09:32 am LE bundled version of Sonar may not come with a hard copy of any manual...
Inside Sonar is an audio hardware configuration dialog, you have to set up which in's and outs are enabled in the app, then in each track the in and out of that track has to be assigned...just like in most apps.
Apr 09, 2006 02:19 pm yeah, its playing mp3s, no probs and also audio on sonar now, but i can't hear midi tracks. i'd like to be able to put drums and instruments on (virtual instruments) can i do this without a midi keyboard? i mean, can i manually insert them?
apologies again if this is really obvious stuff. the help section in the programme is not doing it for me!
thanks

Apr 09, 2006 09:09 pm Do like dB says and look for the pdf manual. There's all sorts of ways to get drums and synths into Sonar LE without a keyboard, but you're talking alot of typing to tell you how. 1st, you want to get a handle on midi and VSTi, so check the manual and any included tutorials with your UA package (if there are any...).

Apr 09, 2006 10:30 pm Yes you can simply step write your virtual instrument parts in a midi track and assign an instrument to that track. I do it all the time in Sonar 5 PE or Project 5/2.
