Can’t open song data
Is there sufficient free space on the
hard disk?
When opening a bundled file, make sure that there is sufficient space on the hard disk
(at least as much as the size of the song data)
A message indicates “Not a
Cakewalk Format File.”
It may be that the file has been damaged. You may be able to recover some of the data
by opening the file in
Safe Mode

No sound at all
Is your sound reproduction
equipment (speakers,
headphones) connected correctly?
Connect your audio reproduction equipment.
”Connecting your sound reproduction system” (p. 19)
Is the power switch turned on?
Make sure that your sound reproduction system and the VS-700 are powered up.
Are the volume knobs raised?
Make sure that the volume knobs of your sound reproduction system and the VS-700’s
[AUDIO OUTPUT]
knob are raised.
Is the VS-700’s driver correctly
installed?
Make sure that the VS-700’s driver is installed correctly.
Do the audio data format settings
match?
Make sure that the Sampling Rate of the audio used in your project, the Sampling Rate
of SONAR, and the setting of the VS-700R’s
[SAMPLE RATE]
knob all match.
Could you have switched off the
VS-700’s power or disconnected
the USB cable while SONAR was
running?
If you perform such actions while SONAR is running, communication between SONAR
and the VS-700 will be interrupted, and SONAR may stop responding.
Check the connection to the VS-700, restart your computer, and restart SONAR.
Could your computer has entered
Suspend mode while SONAR was
running?
No sound at all
Could a message be indicating
“Unable to Open Audio Playback
Device”?
If Media Player or another application that has audio playback capability is running,
SONAR won’t be able to use the audio driver, and an error will appear when SONAR is
started. Close the audio playback application, and then start SONAR again.
Make sure that SONAR’s Sampling Rate (p. 60) matches the settings 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).
Make sure that the Sampling Rate of the audio used in your project, the Sampling Rate
of SONAR, and the setting of the VS-700R’s
[SAMPLE RATE]
knob all match.
No MIDI sounds
Does the song contain only MIDI
data?
MIDI data can be played using the “Fantom VS” synthesizer that’s built into the VS-
700R.
“Playing Back the MIDI Demo Songs”
Could more than one music
application be running?
If multiple music applications are running at the same time, close the other software. If
an indication remains in the taskbar even after you close the window, the software is
still running; you must also close the software that’s shown in the taskbar.
Are the MIDI Devices settings
correct?
Make MIDI device settings as described in
