I can’t hear the demo project

3. Select the file by clicking on it so it is highlighted and then click the Open button, to open

the demo project.

4. When the project opens, the File Information window appears. This window can be used for

storing notes, comments, credits and other helpful information about a project. For now,

close the File Information window by clicking the Close button in the upper right

corner of the window.

5. Click the Play button in SONAR's Control Bar, which is located across the top of

SONAR's interface.

6. Enjoy the tune!

While we just covered basic setup and ensured that you can playback files, there is much

more you can do with SONAR. For more information, see “Next steps” on page 22.

I can’t hear the demo project

If you weren't able to hear the demo project, it is most likely related to one of the following three

things. Review the following steps to try to resolve it.

I did not see any meters move in SONAR or hear any sound

The most common cause of this is if the playback device is not set correctly, this is the most

common cause to fix this:

1. Go to Edit > Preferences > Audio - Devices.

2. Make sure the correct audio device is selected in the Output Drivers list, then click OK.

3. Make sure the Output control of each audio track in the demo project is assigned to the

correct output device.

Note: If prompted to unpack the bundle, accept the default locations and click OK.

Tip:

First, try the option that includes “ASIO” in its name.
