Try incrreasing your file i/o buffers in the advanced tab of the audio options dialog. It has to be a multiple of 64, I think it is 128 so try 256. When you pasted your choruses, the overlapping material is being streamed from your hadr drive so you have a sudden burst of data being read from the drive at the point where you copy the chorus.

I converted 2 of my plugins to audio and then deleted the plugin from the sinth rack, this helped a little but the problem is still persisting. I'm also having problems recording on the lead vocal track witch is track 39. When I hit record before to long jaws says dropout and the music stops. Sometimes I get a message saying that the intire project could not be saved the disk might be full. This only happens when I'm recording. However I know this isn't true because most of my files are backed up on to an external harddrive and I just cleaned my audio folder. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gordon Kent To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, September 29, 2006 9:46 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: II didn't have this problem in Sonar 4 Every projecte is different. I would bet anything that if you ran the same project in s4 the same thing would happen. Did you copy and paste your choruses? I think I know what is going on here. Gord ----- Original Message ----- From: neville To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2006 11:03 PM Subject: [ddots-l] II didn't have this problem in Sonar 4 I'm having a very strange problem with Sonar 5. When I have say more than 25 tracks, Jaws slows down and my audio starts to stutter. I'm working on a project with 39 tracks and when my project gets to the point wear all the tracks are playing at the same time, the audio begins to skip and stutter on the down beet of every 2 bars. Then on the down beet of the first bar of my last 3 choruses jaws will say drop out and the project will stop playing. If I hit space to continue or if I start from the starting point, the same thing happens. It doesn't matter wear I start from I will get a drop out in exactly the same place every time, on the down beet of the first bar of each of the last 3 choruses. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I did not have this problem with Sonar 4 at all. I could have as many tracks as I wanted and my audio would run smoothly.
