I have a direct audio cable from my guitar, to an input in my card that is labled 'input instrument 1/2' HD audio headhpone/speakers for 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 it expands to Left HD audio mixed capture (not sure what it is.it might be my onboard sound)Īlso same for right and stereo.and it has audio digital in it says Left quartet audio 1/2, Right Quartet audio 1/2, Stereo Quartet audio 1/2. it then expands to 12 different selections form there (im not sure why theres so many). Well, my selection of inputs are Quartet audio driver 4 in 4 out. and yes i have the audio engine set to 'on'. i set up a live instrument according to Sonar's help file, and it says to start a new 'blank' file.and then insert audio track, all of that works fine, but there's nothing actually recorded. i tried every input/output option and still silence. for some reason, the sound isn't getting to Sonar however. also the audio interface card came with it's own program that lets you see the sound levels of that card, and i get plenty of activity when plucking my strings, matching my input.soo i know my card is good. i know there is nothing wrong with the guitar. i decided to buy an audio interface CARD.i know a lot of people use outboxes, but i wanted to try an actual card.

i've done the best i could to hook everything up right, but when i select echo or i try to record no sound is there. I just started using Sonar 8.5, and i am having trouble trying to get the sound of my guitar to Sonar.
