Frustrated trying to get an audio interface to work with Sonar - October 11, 12 2:50 PM ( #1 ) I am almost ready to toss Sonar, and use an iMac with Garage Band.  I have both Sonar 7XL, and have even upgraded to Sonar X1 Essential.  I have several pieces of gear that I can not get to work with Sonar as an audio interface.  All I want to do is record a few songs for my demo.  I am a solo artist working with backing tracks.  I use Sonar to edit Midi backing tracks, which I then save as .wav files, and play live from my iPad.  I have no problems doing that. However, I need to do some recording, and have several options as audio interfaces to record my guitar and vocals to the project containing the backing tracks.  I have a Bose T1 mixer, an Alesis iMultimix 8 USB and a Zoom R16 which can all be used to send tracks to Sonar via USB.  However, they never seem to work with Sonar (either one).  Sometimes after trial and error clicking thru numerous menus, I can get Sonar to record, there is always latency issues.  Either latency during playback, or most frustrating, latency of the recorded track against the backing.  Isn't this what Sonar is supposed to be good at?  I'm an electrical engineer, and can't seem to figure out how to do this. I have been using Sonar for quite some time, but limited uses.
