Default Need Help

Hi

I just borrowed an Edirol Card UA20 from a friend with the view of buying it because I'm at the limit with my Micro BR and want to be able to edit some drums and maybe add some keybds.

Anyway I loaded the driver and have got Sonar LE but found that theres a horrible glitching noise (quite bad) I tried to adjust the latency settings but it doesnt have any effect.

I can record my guitar on Audio track and although the background glitching is there its ten times worse on playback.

Then somebody told me I dont really need Edirol and can record direct from the line out on the Micro BR? But when I try this I can't get anything to work on input output side - so am stumped? How do I tell Sonar to use the laptop soundcard? (Sigma Tel C Major Audio)

thx (am fed up)

To setup either one (though I'm not sure that the Micro BR can be used as a proper audio interface), connect the device to your computer either by USB or Firewire (wichever is available or possible on the respective devices), then make sure you run the "wave profiler" option under the audio options menu: "options" > "audio."

To avoid the glitchy sounds you're hearing, make sure that your Sonar project settings are set to settings compatible with your device. The Edirol device is 24 bit with a probable recording sample rate at 44.1kHz. Under the same audio options menu mentioned above, make sure you set these Sonar settings to match the default settings of the device. You should only do this, however, after using the "wave profiler" utility, which Sonar has to be able to detect your connected audio interface for use.

I hope that helps. If it does not, please come back here and mention so, so that we can figure out your problem(s).

Good luck,
