Most beginners are stuck at the problem of getting sounds from their Cakewalk Sonar software, whether it is audio or midi. We’ve received emails and comments about troubleshooting this problem.

I think that’s why Cakewalk themselves created a video tutorial specifically to tackle this trouble faced by mostly beginners, or new Sonar users.

In this video, you will find out how to:

  • look for the drivers, midi and audio devices installed on your computers
  • rename the devices with easy friendly name
  • setting up controller/surface
  • explanation of ACT (Active Control Technology)and WAI (Where Am I)
