Hi,

When I try to use “ASIO Exclusive” I get the following error message and my microphone will not work:

"Audio Driver Error – The following driver(s) either do not support the current audio format, or are in use by another application. Please choose whether you want to disable them or use them anyway. Microphone (Realtek Audio)" 

If I go to “ASIO Shared” I do not get this message and my microphone will work. Any ideas as to how I can get my microphone to work with Exclusive?

Thank you,

yeto

I take it Cakewalk does not have a "latency compensation" feature/setting?

Is the "Nudge" feature what I have been looking for all along to align the vocal track with the instrument tracks because there just does not seem to be a way to do this during the actual recording of the vocal track?

https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR X3&language=3&help=Arranging.24.html

I have tried both "Full Chase Lock" and "Record latency Adjustment - Manual Offset" and I just can't get the Audio/Vocal track to line up with the Instrument Tracks. BandLab's "Online" DAW has a Latency Test does Cakewalk have something similar?

Thank you in advance for any help,

yeto

After more research maybe I would adjust here (see photo).

Can someone provide any help as to how I would do this?

Thank you in advance for any help,

In the below picture, where it says Timing Offset(msec), is this where I would sync vocals to my instrument recordings?

Thank you,

Yes, have a look at the documentation for the Select Module.

Selection is often used for copy/paste operations. You can also set your loop points to the selected region.

Thank you for taking time to post. This is very helpful.

When I click here (see photo below) it takes me back to the start of the song.

two clips in the PRV with "Show Clip Outlines" enabled using Mercury Theme

As usual, it takes me longer than everyone else to "get it". If I now understand correctly, all "clips" are highlighted not just the "one" where you are making changes. I wish there was someway to highlight just the one clip you are working on in piano roll like how track view highlights the one clip.

I can't see a change in either Tungsten or Mercury related to the background. The notes change color but not the background. Can you share a photo that shows what it should look like?

Thank you,

Anyone have any ideas as to why my clips aren't outlined in piano roll even though I have show clip outlines checked?

Whether it shows sharps or flats seems to depend on the current key (ALT + SHIFT + 6).

I tried most of the keys and unless I am doing something wrong they all show the same notes. (Db, Eb, F#, G# and Bb) I wish there was some way to change the Db, Eb and Bb to sharps.

We may be talking about two different things. I am referring to the notes that show on the piano roll keyboard when I move my mouse around in piano roll.

Thank you for trying to help,

yeto

In the piano roll view "notes pane" is it possible to show the notes with shapes versus flats? I searched Cakewalk documentation but could not find out how to make this change.

Also, I have "show clip outlines" selected but my clips are not outlined in the piano roll view pane. Can some share as to what I am doing wrong or maybe could provide a photo as to what this would look like?   

Thank you in advance for any help,

The gray areas purpose is to advise that there is an active selection in the project and where the selection is in time.

Thank you. That helps.

I would call it a region.

I have searched and I can't find a good page that explains this feature. Would you know of a resource?

I accidentally dragged and this gray marker appeared. Can someone tell me what it is called so I can Google and study its purpose?

Thank you in advance for any help,

Name a clip....

 

As my mom would say...if it had been a snake it would have bit me.

I couldn't tell from the screencap if it was part of a group, but if it's part of a group, and the group is selected, you won't get the Rename command in the context menu.

Not part of a group but this is good to know for future reference. Thank you for taking time to reply.

I appreciate your help,

In the BandLab Assistant under Sounds > All Loops > All > Choose Filters are there more "instruments" below the bottom row (Fx - Guitar - Hi-Hats ) and if there are how do I scroll to see the additional instruments?

Thank you,
yeto

I "think" I figured it out thanks to all of your comments. Sometimes I have to left click on the clip first and then right click and then the "Rename Clip" box/option will show. I am going to mark this thread as solved for now.

Thank you to all who replied.

Locked data?

Are you sure. I didn't click lock data and the padlock is not showing. I can rename in the inspector but not the right click dropdown.

The "Rename Clip" option is missing in the clip I renamed xxxxxxx using clip properties in the inspector. Is there any particular reason why it would be missing?

Is there any particular reason why I can't name this clip? The option is not visible.

Kind regards,

Yes, this is a job for the Theme Editor. View Background (odd) and View Background (even) are set in Track view > Clips Pane

 

Thank you. That worked perfectly.

Kind regards,
