Can’t record
Could a message be indicating
“Unable to open audio record
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 appears when SONAR is
started. Close the audio playback application, and then start SONAR again.
Make sure that SONAR’s Sampling Rate (p. 56) is the same as the setting of the SONAR
V-STUDIO 100’s “Sample Freq” setting.
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. 23)
Make sure that the Sampling Rate of the audio used in your project, the Sampling Rate
of SONAR, and the setting of the SONAR V-STUDIO 100’s “Sample Freq” all match.

Dropouts occur in the
recording
Could you have connected/
disconnected another USB device,
such as a memory key?
Dropouts may occur during playback or recording if you connect/disconnect another
USB device (such as a memory key), or switch a device’s power on/off at the same time
that the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 is being used.
Are you using a hard disk that is
connected via USB?
Data transfer using USB could get congested if you use the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 and
a USB-connected hard disk at the same time. As a result, the data transfer speed for the
hard disk could be significantly reduced. As a storage location for the audio data that
you record and play back, you should avoid using a hard disk that is connected via USB.
Did the dropout occur immediately
after the system started up, or after
it woke from sleep?
Dropouts during playback/recording sometimes occur immediately after the system
has started up, or after it has woken from sleep. Wait for a while, then try the playback/
recording again.
Recording Halts Midway,
and Subsequent
Recording is Not Possible
While you were using the SONAR
V-STUDIO 100, could your
computer have performed a task
with a heavy processing load, such
as accessing a CD-ROM drive or the
network?
If a heavy processing load occurs while the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 is being used, it may
not work correctly. In this case, stop playback, and then start playback once again.
If you are still unable to play, close all software that was using the SONAR V-STUDIO
100, disconnect the USB cable from the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 hardware, and then
reconnect it.
Guitar Sound is Not Loud

Are you using the correct
connector?
Connect your guitar to the INPUT 1 phone jack.
Is the input impedance switch set
correctly?
Turn the “Hi-Z” switch on.
Could you be using a connection
cable that contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
Microphone is Not Loud
Enough
Are you using the correct
connector?
Connect your microphone to the INPUT 1/2 MIC connector (XLR type jack).
Is the input level set appropriately?
Adjust the input level. (p. 36)
Could you be using a connection
cable that contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
