Points to check

Can’t install SONAR
Could you have attempted to
install SONAR as a user without
administrative privileges?
In order to install SONAR, you must log on as a user who has administrative privileges.
Installation will not occur correctly if any other user attempts this.
Is the SONAR 8 DVD-ROM correctly
inserted in the DVD drive?
If the DVD drive or the SONAR 8 DVD-ROM is dirty, use a commercially available cleaner
to clean it.
Could system monitoring software
such as an anti-virus program be
running?
Close such software until installation is completed. For details on how to close the
software, refer to the documentation for your computer or for the software you’re
using.
Did you attempt to install from a
network drive?
You must install from a local drive.
Is there enough hard disk space?
Your hard drive must have at least 30 GB of free space.
Plug-ins are not installed
The plug-ins are not installed
(registered) in the Start menu.
The software synthesizers included with SONAR are all plug-in versions. Unlike the
stand-alone versions,
they will not be registered in the Windows Start menu
. In
order to use the plug-in software synthesizers included with SONAR, you must call
them up from within SONAR. For details on how to do this, refer to the separate User’s
Guide.
By default, some of the plug-ins are
not installed.
Some of the plug-ins are not installed by default. You can install them later if desired.
Plug-ins are installed but
not shown
It may be that a plug-in is disabled.
Check whether the plug-in might be disabled in the plug-in manager. For more about
the plug-in manager, refer to the separate User’s Guide.
“Audio Driver Error”
appears
Is the Audio Driver setting
appropriate?
Make sure that SONAR’s Sampling Rate (p. 60) is the same as the setting of the VS-
700R’s
[SAMPLE RATE]
knob.
If an audio driver not being used by SONAR is installed, try either disabling that driver
or disconnecting the corresponding audio interface from your computer.
Try changing the Driver Mode (p. 26).
Clicking [OK] in the Audio
Options dialog does not
close the dialog box
Could you be using a stand-alone
version of a software synthesizer
(such as the stand-alone version of
the Roland VSC)?
In this case, your settings might not be applied when you click
[OK]
in the Audio
Options dialog box. Try uninstalling the stand-alone version of the software
synthesizer.
Could an input-only or output-only
audio driver be installed, such as
for a USB speaker or USB mic?
In this case, your settings might not be applied when you click
[OK]
in the Audio
Options dialog box. Try disabling those audio drivers.
Could your computer’s internal
sound card be enabled?
Some internal sound cards may cause problems for other audio drivers. In this case, try
disabling the internal sound card in the device manager or in your computer’s BIOS
screen.
