Thanks for all the responses 

I have windows xp on a dell precision M6300 and I use that, so I guess I'll have to stay with that.

It sure would be great if Band lab had a way of getting the cwa9 screen look on the program.

It's so simple, all the settings in boxes, easy to change Not colorful like other programs, but really easy to see and use

Thanks again to all for your help

Mike

Thank you for your response

I'm sorry I didn't explain very well

When I open cwa9 and go to open file top left hand corner,  and open a folder with the midi file I want, I double click it and it opens

Now I close cwa9, I go to that folder, and double click on a file, and caw9 opens, but not the file

Than while cwa9 is open I do the first thing I said I did

 (open file top left hand corner and search for a file, I go and open midi file I want, I double click it, caw9 shuts down)

I have tried BL by cw I just don't like the way it is organized. If I could get the cwa9 look it would be great

Thanks for your time

Mike

I KNOW THIS IS A OLD PROGRAM,  BUT I LIKE THE WAY IT WORKS WITH MY MIDI FILES

 i USE WIN XP USUALLY BUT NOW I'M TRYING TO USE WIN 10 WITH COMPATIBILTY MODE

WHAT MY PROBLEM IS AS FOLLOWS

I OPEN CAKEWALK PRO AUDIO 9 IT OPENS FINE

I GO TO OPEN FILE - I SELECT A FOLDER WITH WORK FILES- PICK A MIDI FILE IT OPENS

WHAT MY PROBLEM IS, IF I CLOSE CAKEWALK AND GO TO THAT FOLDER - THAT I HAVE PROPERTIES OPEN WITH CAKEWALK PRO AUDIO 9 

AND CLICK ON A FILE IT OPENS CAKEWALK, BUT IT DOSEN'T OPEN THE FILE

WITH XP IT OPEN CAKEWALK AND THE FILE

I PLAY LIVE WITH THE PROGRAM, AND I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT WORK LIKE IT DOES WITH XP

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME-SORRY ABOUT CAPS

MIKE

I play back my midi files for background in live performance -I use a Roland SC-880 as my sound module 

I had to use windows XP with a Emagic MT4 because there are no windows 10 drivers available -

I'm trying to update to windows 10 with a Midiman 4X4 anniversary -

The problem I'm having is some times it stutters - I have installed the drivers and the midisport shows up in devices

Does anyone have a fix

Thanks for your time

Mike
