Hello,

I need to do a total re-install of my operating system from scratch.  Can someone help me with the process of making sure all my settings are backed up first and then how to recover them?

FYI, I was also an Sonar Platinum owner, so if I remember correctly, do I install that first and then Cakewalk by Bandlab?  Do they go in separate folders?

If there are any other hints, tips and tricks for this process please let me know.

THANK YOU!

ah i thought so.  I wish there was a way just to not have them.  I thought there was once an option for something like "Show clips pane ellipse", no?

just save them as track templates, import them into the new project, and then just copy/paste the midi/audio clips.  I do it all the time, should be simple.

Is there a way to change the default colors of these pre-determined section types?  I know you can do them with the ones you custom create by hitting "+New", but what about the ones that come out of the box?

Thank You!

I was just wondering if there is a way to disable or hide these dots.

I tried changing the color of them in the preferences but it doesn't do the trick as the odd and even tracks have a slightly different shade of gray (which I like).

Is there a way to simply hide them?  I know they are useful but I just don't like them.

Thank You!

+1 for an update to this feature.  A simple numbering system would be great along with not needing to create one big clip per track.   This should be easily automated as it is in other DAWs.

The audio scale is zoomed in quite a bit. Refer to the documentation on audio scaling.

Hi Scook,

You are correct, thank you!   

So I just got a new mic (Rode NT 1A) and it sounds great, however, I notice when recording a vocal into Cakewalk, the graphics look like it is clipping hard, however it SOUNDS great.  Also the max peak is -11db which far from clipping!  So I am wondering if this is just a drawing error or something I am doing wrong?

Thank You!

I never really understood why this was added to the product, I always find it annoying too, and the areas selected is already highlighted, so why do we need the green bar as well?

you don't have dim-solo enabled do you?

Yeah, the content installers for Platinum are going to check that Platinum is in fact installed. Short answer, if you install all of the Plat/Content, just then reinstall Cakewalk by BandLab on top. All your settings will persist, but any shared components that got overwritten by Platinum's install will be restored by doing the CbB reinstall.

Hi Jonathan,

Thank you so much.   How do I reinstall CbB as I used BandLab Assistant to download and install.

- Expand Track 1.

- Highlight all Tracks/SHIFT+A.

- Hold down SHIFT and ADJUST Track 1 height.

Next time you do this, just hit ALT+Z.    (That's a Redo view shortcut).

Thanks @chuckebaby thing is though, it may not be the last thing I did.  Also, that won't work upon project close and re-open.

 I am looking for a feature to return all tracks to Default Height.

Hello,

I was wondering if there is any official statements from the Developers if installing the final update of Sonar Platinum AFTER Cakewalk by Bandlab is already installed can cause any issues.  I recently re-formatted my PC and only installed Cakewalk by Bandlab and realize now I need TruePianos and a few other plugins from the Sonar Platinum Install.  I tried installing them manually but I get the following error.  Thank You!

Fast freeze or real-time? Have you tried the other than what you're using?

 

 

I tried both, same results.

Interesting enough, if I hit "P" for preferences and then close the tab and then do a bounce without playing it first, I can get a decent bounce.  Crazy!

What is the soft synth?  Is it a 32 bit?  ,, a freebie? 

It is actually 64 bit Arturia Mini Moog v3, never had this problem before

So I have a customized track height that I use by default, but after adding over 30 tracks to my song, I used the "F" key to fit all tracks in my screen.   Is there any way to revert back to the "Default Track Height" besides selecting all tracks and trying to approximate with my mouse the correct size?  I was looking for a toggle switch between "F" and Default Track Height.

Thank you!

So I am having a very strange issue when either bouncing to audio or freezing a softsynth.

I have nothing on the ProChannel or FX Bin and when it plays via MIDI the volume is constant and sounds right (which I cannot show an example of)

but even on export, it sounds like this!

You can hear how the volume goes in and out, its so strange, it is only happening with ONE softsynth.

Any help is much appreciated!

Synth.mp3

I have experienced this when my MIDI tracks have groove clips or step sequencer clips in them.   I often times must bounce the MIDI clips first before export, no clue why.

Synth -Rack might also be a good and easy adress for "MIDI remote control" purposes. Just right-click and take a ride...

What a pitty, limited to about 42 (visual) automation knobs for one specific softsynth...  (more assignments are possible, but about 42 knobs are being showed up in at most two rows)  Numberated knobs would be a good  feature!!

right now, Z3TA is on cha 5/16, Nexus on cha 4, Spire on cha 3, Kontakt on cha 6, Spark  on cha 10/11. For me this is the easiest way organize MIDi remote and control all my softsynths with only one MIDI hardware device. In this case "Arturia BeatstepPro" --> Control-Mode

Question about the method you posted here.  How is it any different than doing standard MIDI-Learns inside a VST?   Is there any benefit in controlling parameters via the synth rack?
