This hotfix addresses a single issue that was reported by a few customers while running SONAR 7.0.2 only with certain ASIO drivers.

While stopping and restarting playback, or if another application accessed the audio device while SONAR was in use, occasionally you could get the following error message:

"Unable to open audio playback device. Device may not support the current project's audio format or may be in use".

If you have encountered this problem in SONAR 7.0.2 please download the appropriate hotfix for your version of SONAR and copy the file to your SONAR program folder.

If you do not have this problem there is no need to get this update since it addresses exactly this one problem.
 

IMPORTANT! - Installation Instructions:

1. Navigate to your SONAR directory. By default, this is either C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\SONAR 7 <Producer or Studio> Edition OR C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\SONAR 7 <Producer or Studio> Edition (for 32-bit SONAR installed on Vista 64-bit)
2. Rename SONARPDR.EXE to SONARPDR_702.EXE
