Please also note that this drum map file only works with Cakewalk and Sonar. You can move them to a different location on your drive, leaving only the ones you need, like the drum map for the MT Power Drum Kit (thank me later). Side note: In this folder you will encounter many other drum map files which you probably don't need. Put the previously extracted drum map file into this Drum Maps folder. ➔ Drum Maps.Ĭ: ➔ Users ➔ ➔ AppData ➔ Roaming ➔ Cakewalk ➔ Cakewalk Core ➔ Drum Maps. Back then you couldn't get sound of any kind out of the computer without dropping an extra $50-100 on an add-on card.In Windows navigate to the following folder:Ĭ: ➔ Users ➔ ➔ AppData ➔ Roaming ➔ Cakewalk ➔ SONAR. Sure, most people want to set up an external interface, but they don't have to. Isn't it amazing the difference from those days? You can now literally go to Best Buy, buy a Windows notebook computer, and as long as it has 6G or more of RAM, there is nothing more that needs to be done if you are doing in-the-box electronic production. Even less if the person is just using the onboard hardware CODEC. It was removed, the things that it covered are pretty much taken care of by running the manufacturer's installer, then plugging in a USB cable.

ASIO and WASAPI were not included in the discussion about driver models.īy my guess, it looked like most of the information dated back to before 1997. There was no mention of the internet or web.

It mentioned that one way to get the latest drivers for your sound card might be by dialing up the card maker's BBS.

I think it went on for at least 50 pages about topics like disabling/enabling ACPI and plug 'n' play and making sure that AOL wasn't set up to automatically dial out with your modem and so forth. took out lots of pages from the "getting started" section that dealt with things like setting IRQ jumpers on boards and gameport-to- MIDI cables, outdated information about configuring a computer to be ready for SONAR. I kind of assumed that a lot of it was taking out instructions for use of Platinum Edition-only plug-ins.
