You have to be sharp if you want to see.

Roland drivers are not well behaved with automatic switching of sample rates. In fact some require manual intervention. If you are using ASIO and Windows simultaneously with the same device its a bit of a crapshoot since the ASIO device may be using the device at one sample rate while Windows will try it the default in Windows. I even had some issues with Focusrite in this regard. I solved it by setting windows to use the same sample rate that I was using in Cakewalk and so far its been fine. It also works pretty well with RME devices. But generally I would keep Windows independent from the device that you are using in ASIO mode and you should not have issues. There are many who are using the Quad Capture successfully in ASIO mode.

This happens mostly with just switching around with the big new instruments in ST4 MAX (4.0.3). You know, the ones I really want to try out because they sound so good. My sample libraries are all installed on an internal 1TB SATA HDD 7200 RPM. One example that recreates my crash consistently: 1. Launch ST4 standalone. 2. Load "C7 Grand Binaural - Natural". Play a few notes to verify that the sound has loaded correctly. 3. Then replace that instrument with "C7 Grand Classical". It loads, but as soon as I try to play the first note, it just freezes up, and I have to kill the task. A few other scenarios have the interface just going poof. If I load "C7 Grand Classical" first, it loads and plays OK, so that instrument doesn't appear to have a corrupted file or anything. So far I can also load and play the lighter ST4 instruments, for example all of the EPs and Basses. My ST3, Syntronik, and Miroslav 2 CE instruments seem to be OK.

Looks nice Gswitz!

The guitarist out of my old band put lights and an LCD panel into his blank rack panel. The LCD screen had random semi-offensive messages come up (toilet humour for 5 year olds type words) should any over-curious musician take an interest in his gear... their reactions kept him amused throughout gigs.

My friend's band used to put stickers on their blanks. Things like "Rent this space!" and "Tip so we can buy something to put here!" LOL.

?

Does this mean you dance on your side? ?

I think it was a desperate attempt hoping a female would reply "No! I'm here!" (Fail.?)

I would say that it might depend on what scope of editing / writing etc you needed to do offline . If it was straight up editing - I would bounce out stems of tracks that are already complete and just edit a few offline - then transfer those couple of tracks back. I think going for a full project transfer would be a headache - and maybe expensive to duplicate usable VSTi's. Having some basic midi instruments - maybe just to fill out monitoring might be a good idea. I don't know if the TSS synth covers enough ground - I've only used it for a few filler tracks. Drums would probably be the most important thing to be able to keep compatible between both DAWS.

There's a downside to disabling the zero-controllers option, which is why it's an option in the first place. Weird stuff can happen if you don't zero controllers when playback stops, such as restarting playback and the sustain pedal is stuck down (resulting in stuck notes), or an instrument playing out of tune because of where the pitch wheel was last set. For this reason, I combat the Kontakt modwheel problem using msmcleod's method of inserting a CC1 event at the start of the track. It's a small bother, but the problem mostly affects orchestral libraries that I'm probably going to add CC1 events to anyway.

Is your whole house that tidy? I'm guessing probably not. Then again, kitchen utensils and your wife's knickknacks don't really lend themselves to wire tie organization. My own rack keeps getting emptier as I cannibalize it for the band. Gotta get some more blank panels.

To each their own. ... never been a problem for me using bundle files.

I noticed this as well. Having modulation at zero making cutoff freq = zero is a totally mental decision. Modulation at zero is the default position (as is actually having some sound coming out). Why on earth did NI not make it work in reverse? My workaround was to insert a CC# 1 (modulation) = 127 at the very beginning of the MIDI Event List.

Don't have the product to test but it could be Zero Controllers When Play Stops. Try disabling this option in preferences.

Molly, ask your contact at the drama company what instrumentation they need on the score. Don't be afraid of asking them questions.

I think perhaps you guys might be correct in saying Musescore and others might work for what the OP has done. His song was done by his using the Piano Roll View, so more than likely, he put notes perfectly onto the timeline and if he did not move the notes to the side of the beat, to give it some swing and phrasing, then those other software programs should be able to work just fine. Of course, his song would feel rather "mechanical" or robotic, as we musicians have spoken about in the use of computer music for decades. But what I have been writing about is if the MIDI file was a person recording a song on his MIDI keyboard, playing it as he felt it should sound. Then of course, a myriad of complications are introduced that those software score programs are incapable to handling, except for Finale'. So, if the MIDI file by the songwriter is one created with PRV and not complicated at all, then you can use anything. But if the MIDI file created is like a person using his MIDI keyboard to record a composition on piano and play it as he likes, then the notes will not be lined up perfectly, and attempting to move the notes to look proper on the staff inside a software score program, will not work (except for Finale') because those other programs FORCE each measure to add up to 1 (all the notes in the measure must add up to 1), and that will cause havoc galore.

Thanks, Øyvind ? If it's a good touch, I'll take it ? Takker for positiv tilbakemelding. Blir ofte små variasjoner når jeg synger harmoni vokalen på versene.

I can say this because I'm half Norwegian: Is there a better job, in the early 21st century for a young women, than being the Stick Girl for a Norwegian Squat Dancer? Oh, I think we know the answer.

With all that experience, surely you two can figure out a workaround for the issue.

Ever heard of quantize? It should snap your notes to the grid before you export your MIDI version for score creation. You could retain an un-quantized version for playback in Cakewalk if you prefer the un-quantized live feel of the performance.

phew! I feel better now. Women are always asking me to stand on my head etc

I like it. It has a toutch of post black right? For our norwgians: Bra vokal. Veldig improvisatorisk feeling over det. Gjør det hele så mye mer levende!

I used to take with me a 10-year-old laptop for editing Sonar projects while sitting on a train or a bus. Some plugins were missing, but that didn't prevent me from working on the projects. I also used a pair of noise-cancelling headphones and a small lightweight USB interface (Line6 GX). When finished I would copy the project back to the main DAW PC via a flashdrive. I always used project folders and never bundle files.

I've got a very basic install on my work laptop, just CbB and Rapture Pro & CA-2A from CCC, with a M-Audio KeyStation 32 as a controller. Sticking to stock plugins keeps the disk space footprint small (I don't want to upset the IT department!). My intention was to use as a sketch pad for ideas during my lunch, but to be honest I never really get the time. I'm a Software Development Manager, and our office is open plan, so I find I more than often work through lunch as it's the one time I get some peace to get work done! It's main use now is for taking screen shots, or trying things out when answering questions here. If I'm travelling, I'll bring my own laptop which has the same setup as my studio PC. I use a combination of batch files & a cloud backup (Mega) for keeping projects in sync. My CloudSync folder is set to F:\Projects, where as my Cakewalk directories are SEQUENCE for projects, WAVEDATA for my global audio directory, PICTURE for my picture cache, and TEMPLATES for my templates. CopyToMega.bat: ROBOCOPY F:\SEQUENCE F:\Projects\SEQUENCE *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT ROBOCOPY F:\PICTURE F:\Projects\PICTURE *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT ROBOCOPY F:\TEMPLATES F:\Projects\TEMPLATES *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT ROBOCOPY F:\WAVEDATA F:\Projects\WAVEDATA *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT CopyFromMega.bat: ROBOCOPY F:\Projects\SEQUENCE F:\SEQUENCE *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT ROBOCOPY F:\Projects\PICTURE F:\PICTURE *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT ROBOCOPY F:\Projects\TEMPLATES F:\TEMPLATES *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT ROBOCOPY F:\Projects\WAVEDATA F:\WAVEDATA *.* /XO /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT This does involve having two copies of my projects, however: It stops the cloud sync from accessing any "active" projects I can decide when I'm ready to sync the projects

Bundle is not the way most of use would do this. You just transfer the whole project folder(s) which should all be on a portable back up drive anyways. I've been working between 2 or 3 machines for years now and have never had any issues. As I said all your projects should be stored in a main folder and then that folder should have been backed up to an external drive for safe keeping. Make sure you date the containment folder. I have 3 DAW set ups right now. Main DAW is a typical i7 It has 3 Drives. No data on C. Working data on E and then backups on G. Then an i5 Laptop which has 2 drives same set up but no back up drive. Both have all the same VST's and are fully licenced so projects all run smoothly on both of these machines. It is worth noting that most all VST's like Melodyne and AD2 allow for 2 machines. Then the 3rd laptop is a 2008 duo core Sony with only 1 SATA drive which I use differently. All run the latest CbB as well as have Splat and various older versions still installed. Here's a step by step of how I copy from machine to machine. On my main DAW I use a Data Drive (E) to store all my projects. Each song ( project) folder is inside an ALBUM folder. Album folders keep different types of project tidy. -- Live Band performance, Backing Tracks, Original Songs, Sock Monkey Album Old albums and inactive stuff are kept elsewhere on backup drives . All are backed up to the 3rd (G) drive as well as an External drive whenever possible. I will date the new Folder, example _ "Original Songs Feb 24 2019 " after I copied it over to the BU drives. When I need to use the laptop I hook up the external drive and I copy over the latest version of the "Album" that will be worked on. Note: Now that Album is stored in a minimum of 4 places! I work on the songs and save them into that same folder and when they need to go back to my main DAW I simply Re name the Album folder using current Date'. I then copy it to the external, and then copy back to the E drive of the main DAW. I could now choose to delete the older folder but I usually don't do this until my (250 GB) SSD E drive is passing 60%. The Laptop is used for live recording and right now is living at my partners house over the winter. He is laying down all his parts ( audio only) to our 65 song "album" . I am also working on some of the same songs so it will only be a matter of copying his audio tracks once he is done back to the main DAW. The Sony I use in the Family room to edit and adding some additional instruments like Mandolin. Because I cannot authorize certain VST's I will just freeze synths first and save a special copy in a different folder marked as such. But if you can it is well worth the effort to fully load up your Laptop with everything possible as this also serves as a solid back up in case your main DAW goes south. If not, it's a minor hassle to either ignore all the warnings about the missing stuff and then just swap them out with what's on hand. I didn't freeze some songs and therefore I didn't have AD2 on the 3rd laptop so just swap it over to SI drum kit or even Session drummer. I actually liked one song better with SI drum kit.. now that's weird.

I appreciate, Peter. Thankfully, it appears the update cured the locked sounds issue. I haven't really had a chance to use it yet, so we will see, but looks good. Thanks for all you do.

I have to agree with your Erik. It will be interesting on how Bandlab chooses to integrate Cakewalk with its main-site. Really can be a platform for educational learning. How can you beat the price- Free P.S. Not only Free but a really great DAW

I believe its called "Suspend Audio Engine When Cakewalk Is Not in Focus." now.

I feel so much better now that they fixed that German text bug.

Over the weekend I saw a couple of things. I have several midi interfaces connected to my Daw. I turn then on when needed. I noticed that the Cakewalk control surface will auto select a midi interface when the actual control surface interface midi device is missing. This makes the selected interface unusable on a midi track input even though it's in the track options list. Just a FYI I thought I would share, as well as something I need to remember. It took me a while to figure this out. If I change the midi interface in the Control surface to something else all is well. The second observation was when recording midi on a track with the Arpeggiator turned on in the Cakewalk midi track as well as the vsti I ended up with overlapping redundant midi notes. Is there a recommended work-flow when recording arpeggated parts? I just practiced the parts with the Arpeggiator on and then recorded with it off. Unfortunately sometimes I forgot this step.

I wonder if your focal 50 being plugged into your PC is causing a problem because that is presenting itself as an audio interface as well. Take that out if the equation and retest with asio mode and only the octacapture assigned as Input and output in cbb audio settings

Hi, Here is the original escreenshot for those would couldn't see it :

I actually thought that the OP did well to get so many sensible answers tbh. Would have been way worse in the old CH. I'm sorry if my effort failed to meet the required standard for acceptable humour.

I had a meal with Julibee. Drops mic. Walks away.

This might be a silly question, but when you go into the sample rate settings on the Octa-Capture itself, what is it currently set to? Octa-captures can cause CbB to throw that message if the project sample rate and the device don't line up. You can get the details on how to set it on the device here.

I'm sure you probably checked this but I didn't see it mentioned so I thought it was worth a mention. In the sound tab for your sound devices, once you select your default device there is a properties> advanced tab. Make sure to uncheck the box for allowing devices to take control. Control Panel>Sound>Click your soundcard>Properties>Advanced>Exclusive Mode>"Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device." I'm on Win 8.1 so it might be slightly different. I use a Duo Capture EX and after installing BandLab Cakewalk I fought with my card for a couple days until I unchecked this box. I also set my sound scheme to "No Sounds" and haven't had any issues since. Also I would check your manual on switching usb ports. On the Duo Capture whatever usb port you use when you install the driver is the one your stuck with. Roland specifically states that changing the usb port can cause issues. If I remember correctly, if I want to use a different usb port I have to uninstall the driver. Change the usb port and reinstall the driver after reboot.

That's done. First, someone told me to disable the onboard sound device in the Bios, finally I unabled it again yesterday and assigned Windows sound. The problem some run into when running a their DAW audio interface as the default Windows audio device is the DAW and Windows are not configured to run the same sample rate. If one has projects at different sample rates, it may be convenient to run Windows audio through the onboard chip to avoid having to deal with the sample rate mismatch issue.

Thanks everyone for trying to help me. I'm running a PC with i7-2600K, CPU 3.40 GHz, 16 Go RAM, Windows 7, SSD for system, 1 To HDD for libraries, 1 To HDD for projects. That's done. First, someone told me to disable the onboard sound device in the Bios, finally I unabled it again yesterday and assigned Windows sound. I'll try that, disabling the digital outputs and inputs. I disabled all other sound devices (on-board) in Cakewalk. That was my idea, I use Focal 50, and I can plug my PC output directly in it. Or maybe I can use my old Tapcoe S5 by Mackie, which I don't manage to sell. They could be used only for that kind of purpose ... For the image, I'll see how I can do ... Does that work ? https://ibb.co/GxHPs2z
