Hi, I simply can not find that file on my computer. Just updated Cakewalk as well. Do you think they may have changed the file name since bandlab took over?
-
Thanks, I'll check it out! I think there might be a preference setting too, I seem to remember dealing with this before. J

Hey, Cakewalk is turning off the "local" on my keyboard. I'd prefer it didn't. I forget where the setting is for that. Anyone? Thanks! Jono

Well, if I have an external insert, say on a bus, I can't solo that bus... why? If the insert is on a track you can solo it. Why not a bus? Very annoying, if you have a bunch of busses and you want to solo one (that has an external insert) you can't, you have to mute everything else to hear that bus in solo. Also, if there's an external insert on a bus and you try to (fast bounce) export anything from another track, not having anything to do with the external insert bus, you can't, you have to retitle your export and do it again with the insert turned off. It should just be a dialogue box that says: you have an active external insert, it will be ignored on this export or something to that effect. JG

Some ideas: Fix staff view, who cares if there are other notation programs? You program midi in Cakewalk, you want to have proper notation and not have to go through a nightmare exporting into another program. Why not have Sibelius or another good notation program work within cakewalk? Or just get a notation expert to suggest how to fix it? It's been terrible for decades. Fix problems with sync to mp4 and QuickTime files. Composers can't easily use cakewalk because it won't sync properly with the most popular video files used in the industry. Fix issues with external insert, can't solo bus, ignore on export feature Update CAL scripts to this century Fix default colors to be more visible when selected/deselected Fix scrubbing so it actually works smoothly like other DAWs Update graphics to work better in 4K Love Cakewalk, but these issues have been ignored forever and are things that are important to professional users.

cakewalk and UAD (2408 buffer not available)

Thanks Noel... just looking at possibilities Cheers -
cakewalk and UAD (2408 buffer not available)
jono grant replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Perhaps something else causing blue screen when opening Cakewalk with UAD. @Noel Borthwick - could you let me know if you saw this? Thanks Jono -
cakewalk and UAD (2408 buffer not available)
jono grant replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
@Noel Borthwick my colleague is blue screening when opening Cakewalk on Windows build 2004 using UAD Apollo firewire and when set to higher buffers like 2048 and sometimes 1024. Wondering if you've heard anything about conflicts with this Windows build? I have been staying on an older build because I also had conflicts. He is unable to roll back to the older one now. Thanks Jono -
cakewalk and UAD (2408 buffer not available)
jono grant replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
I think this is all related to a recent Windows build that has a compatibility issue. Unfortunately it's been too long to roll back, those windows files were deleted after ten days. Interesting what you mention about the aud.ini though. Not sure it will help but I saw a few people saying it made some larger files have less issue with the plugins. Thanks! Jono -

Does anyone know why cakewalk is crashing when UAD sound card is set to 2408 buffer size? -
cakewalk and UAD (2408 buffer not available)
jono grant replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Tricky question, does anyone have an idea? Cheers J -
I have a friend with an Apollo firewire unit. If he sets the Apollo to 2408 buffer size, everything okay but the second he opens Cakewalk, blue screen of death! I had a similar problem with having a motherboard soundcard online, when I disabled it, the problem went away. We've eliminated the possibility of any other sound device by completely disabling them, so only UAD. What could still be causing Cakewalk to bug out Windows enough for a BSOD when UAD set to 2408 buffer? (PS, this could be 48 kHz or 96kHz, doesn't make a difference. Any help appreciated! Thanks very much!
-
I don't know anything about that. Very possibly the reason. Is it suggested to have plugins and synths set to up-sample? I do have the odd 32 bit plugin floating around J
-
Hi, I asked this before but didn't get an answer. Each time I render a track within Cakewalk, like bounce to clips or render a soft synth..as it renders I see a message saying "resampling" Why is Cakewalk resampling on a render within the same file? I see it all the time. First I see the "mixing down" then it says "sample rate conversion" in the window with the progress meter. Like two very fast and separate processes. Please, if anyone has a clue, let me know. Cheers

Video respond to delay compensation?
jono grant replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Does anyone have an answer for this? Thanks -
I have a file that requires a large buffer size - 2048, and there is a fair amount of plugins and delay compensation going on. The video I'm running goes out of sync because of the delay compensation, is there a way to have the video respond to it? Trying to adjust the trim time of the video doesn't work as I'd need a negative value which it doesn't have. Thanks J
-
Thanks! Do you mean in the Prefs/Audio/sync and caching or under midi playback and recording? I can't freeze tracks quite yet as I'm still making adjustments
-
Hey, I have a session at 48 kHz, a fair amount of tracks and processing using UAD plugins among others Waves, Fab Filter etc. Also an external insert. The session requires a buffer size of 2048 to handle everything. The audio and plugs are working fine. Even looking CPU usage etc. yet the midi is now missing notes randomly, all over the place So frustrating. What now?? Anything that might help, please let me know. Thanks
-
Anybody?

Update: I sort of have it going but still have a question. I created a midi track sending to the Axe FX, I insert a patch change, set to controller 32. Then I can choose from a list of general midi sounds like organ or acoustic grand piano etc. If I select one of these it changes the Axe FX patch to the number that corresponds to the sound I pick. Like, if I choose "electric grand piano" it will change the Axe FX to patch #3. Great! Almost there... The Axe FX has banks A, B, and C. Is there a way to access those banks and also a patch number rather than an instrument name? Thanks for any help! J
-
Hi there, I've installed an older Axe FX unit (ultra) everything working but wanted to use Cakewalk to automate preset changes. Is this possible? I assume it is but not sure where to start. Any advice appreciated! Cheers Jono

External insert with 4096 buffer size
jono grant replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Yes, I can think of workarounds. I would export any audio dry and then save the file as a template without audio. Reopen the template and bring in the audio resampled to say 48kHz. I was more wondering if the external insert can handle this. If the buffer is at 2048 I'm able to get the external insert in sync, why not at 4096? -
Hey there, I have a 96kHz session with a ton of heavy DSP UAD plugins. When these sessions get this big, UAD adds a 4096 buffer size that can be selected. All working fine but I want to use an external insert, and at this buffer size, I can't seem to get the latency under control. The delay reports 45 ms (4408 samples) and it's set there but still a bunch of latency. If I add a minus offset I can get it closer but not to an acceptable amount. Anything that I can try here? Cheers Jono
