I have the MT drums and in a way it's a step down from the SI drums. And it begs for money every time you open the GUI.
-
Simply solo each VST until you find the one with the tick. There are demo versions of VST's that add intermittent noise while you demo them.

Thanks for that Kevin- Just got it up and running and it's pretty impressive. Not sure how much is disabled in the GUI yet but seems very in depth and lots of kit piece choices. The default sounds great and is very close to my idea of what drums should sound like. Only bummer is there's no effects like compression and reverb. Not a problem as I can just insert it with multi outputs and use Pro channel.
Hopefully the OP see's this one as it certainly a step up from SI drums.
So I scored 3 freebies from this thread!

Process of elimination.
Start with a fresh project and see if the noise is there. If not then it's something, likely a plug in, in the problem project.
-
I'm not sure what you mean when you say " compare to other floating windows (piano-roll or console) "
Those are both part of the Multi dock. You end up with tabs for each of the views you have chosen to have available. That is the multi dock. And then you can undock it from it's default at the bottom and toss it on a second monitor if you have one. If not you just pop it up and down. You can save this all as a workspace so Cakewalk remembers how you like things to look ( most times)

Possibly the demo projects are from the Splat days via CCC. I know I never installed them. My Start screen doesn't have any demos and I think that is why.
-
I'm not sure you have a grasp on how it works.
There is always more than one way to do the same thing in Cakewalk but I'll explain how I do this and possibly it will help you.
Record a guitar track.
If I only need bits and pieces I use split ( hold cursor at position on track and press "S" ) and then I slip edit so only the parts I want are visible. They are still there if I change my mind but they won't play. I do this instead of mute I guess. I find this visually helps me "see" when this track has an active part.
I might at this point apply fade ins and fade outs to the ends of these clips depending on my end goal for this track. I do this a lot on vocal tracks.
When it comes time to mix the song I activate the "W", play the song, and run the fader getting as close as I can.
As I mix the song I will possibly return to the track and fine tune the envelopes manually.
NOW- if I want to do any additional slip editing/ copy paste I will have to turn automated lanes on or it won't let me edit. As long as there is a lane for the envelope the track will behave normally for editing.
-
There's another thread and he is finding that his Saffire 6 USB is probably the cause of all his issues. It's very outdated so will not work well on a modern system.
-
Sorry but the only solution I can think of you won't like- Use W10. CbB is optimized for W10 and does not support W7 Actually using an older version of CbB might work. The more they update CBB the less compatible it will become with older OS.
-

I'm not sure but it might have something to do with any automation. If the automation is overlaying the waveform I find I cannot edit that track. You have to open the automation lanes first. I think?

I think you found the issue. I just looked in the apps list too and your right. Two versions yet only one , the newest will uninstall. So I think when you try to update the app it thinks there's a version still running so it hangs up. They need to fix the installer so that it removes the older version and cleans things up.
And also as you say, I fired up my office computer and Cakewalk was out of date. So while I was buggering around with the assistant I deleted the new version. I opened Cakewalk and it allowed me to download the new version but then you do get the pop up saying you need the latest Assistant to proceed. SO we are still stuck with this buggy system to update.
-
I think the fix was to re install CbB The other reason is don't use 88.2 clock.

Yes there's a whole sub forum here with tutorials. The Cakewalk university series is a must watch for any newbies. This forum would be very quiet if more folks took the time to watch these. They do miss a lot of details but the basic operation including setting up your ASIO interface are all covered.
-
Just downloaded the Grace and Poise 1 sample players. Very basic but huge potential for fun with my own samples. Thanks Steve.
So to the OP-- all you really need to do is sample the sounds you like from SI drums ( or any cardboard boxes you have laying around) , process the sample adding effects etc and then drop them into the sample folder and play them with either of these freebies.

Thanks Jonesey Your a friggin Guinness , whoops I mean Genius. That worked brilliantly. I remember being told about the new feature and totally spaced that. It's a more complete dialog as well. I just installed Version 061 early access, cool. I will now delete the Bandlab assistant from my system...
So are the rest of you paying attention? seems not...

It is still a major PITA that they never seemed to de bug the installer. I get the notice to update Calkwalk and if the assistant also say's it needs updating I have to jump through the Assistant hoops to get it working.
Delete all old installers from your download folder
Don't bother clicking the assistants update button it never works, go to the website and re get the latest version.
Make sure the old version is closed and not running via Task manager or system tray.

audio to midi
in Q&A
Depends on the audio and which version of Melodyne you have You can drag a bass track to a midi track and that always works for me. But guitars do not.
-
That behaviour tells me you might have a hidden dialogue box open so minimize your workspace screen and look behind it. Or it could be a corrupt instal try re installing. Clear the picture cache?
-
When I’ve had this issue it was because windows update had overwritten the midi driver for the device. Try re installing the manufacturer supplied midi driver if it came with one. Most name brands like Roland and Yamaha do
-
By A pro do you mean a Roland A pro Keyboard? If so make sure to go to the Roland website and download and install the Midi driver.

He's saying that Cakewalk is only loading 93 of his 420 plugins.
I hope that is a misunderstanding. 420 plugins, really?
Ya must be a typo, I notice the OP reacted to your post but still has not answered CJ's questions.
Re-install Melodyne possible?
in Cakewalk by BandLab
Posted
I'm not clear on what version comes free with Bandlab Cakewalk, but I have the Melodyne 5 Essentials and it just updated to 5.0.2.003. It was the one that came free with Sonar I guess.
Is the one that comes with CbB Essentials?
