  1. You're welcome and if you get a dedicated audio interface, the problem will solve itself.
  2. Are all MIDI data for the TTS on one track or multiple tracks? Select all the tracks that the midi data is on
  3. Yes, if you need more headphone outs, then you need something that can give you more headphone outs
  4. Your interface is your sound card. Use one and only one. Disable your onboard sound chip and use your interface
  5. If you need to use both headphones at the same time, you either need an audio interface with 2 headphone outs or an interface plus a headphone amp. as for your monitors, they connect to the main outs 1 and 2 of your interface and have nothing to do with your headphones connections. If you just need to use one pair of headphones ,then you connect that to your headphone amp of your interface and your monitors connect to the main outs 1/2
  6. I understand completely. You cannot use 2 different sound cards. you will have problems like clocking and other problems, as you are seeing first hand. Use one card and use the driver written for that one card
  7. Onboard sound chips do not have good drivers, pre-amps, good line inputs, good circuitry and have sub-par converters. you can get a sound card made for recording for very little money. If you want to record, i would invest in one. MOTU, Focusrite and RME are good sound card companies that make great interfaces for recording
  8. Is this inner sample peaking or peak dB? After a mix is mastered. It is dithered down to 16bit and exported to 44.1kHz is most cases. When you import it back into a DAW, it will import to your import settings and most are 24 or 32 bit and what ever sample rate you have configured. This can cause your levels to fluctuate. This is why the mastering is the last stage of music production. My advise is to go back to the un-mastered mix to do your tempo changes, pitch shifting and what not and then master it.
  9. Drivers settings can be adjusted in Cakewalks. Why are you using Realtec drivers? This is a major problem. You need to use the drivers that were written or your Focusrite, not some POS onboard 5 cent sound chip. do not use ASIO4all and do not use Realtec drivers. Use the Focusrite drivers.
  10. If your audio interface doesn't have good enough drivers and/or the drivers are set up incorrectly for low latency, you will have this problem. Also, if your PC and MOBO are not up to par, it can cause latency also. If you have a decent audio interface and its up to date with drivers and a fairly new PC, you can get low latency and use some effects in your DAW. If you are using ASIO driver mode, select 32, 64 or 128 buffer size. The lower the better. Your input latency should be under 5 msecs and your total round trip latency should be less than 12 msecs, if you do not want to hear a noticeable delay
  11. What VST are you installing and are you choosing custom install or the automatic install? Most VST dll's should be installed on your C drive. This is your main drive
  12. I never use Autosave. Just keybinding the letter s to save and press 'S' often. After a session, it becomes 2nd nature to press 'S' every other edit or so.
  13. Always, I means always start every project on measure 2, beat 1. Not measure 1, beat1
  14. When you freeze a track, everything you do to it will be erases when you unfreeze a track. You can try it out to confirm this.
  15. If its dropping out, then try raising your audio interface's drivers. This is done in the preference menu.
  16. Those types f plugins are CPU intensive and mainly meant to be used for mastering. You may need to raise your audio interfaces buffers (ASIO) to help your PC with just an i5 cope with those kinds of plugins
  17. Are you playing the bounced audio that you bounced through your master bus, through your master bus again? This means you are running it through the same gain stages as your bounced it and that should not be done.
  18. Thank you and this is why I've been using Cakewalk for over 20 years
  19. Yes thanks Noel! Ware ever i put my courser with the control surface, it doesn't center, unless i manually press the (-) or the (+) sign on the GUI of Cakewalk to zoom un-zoom. It has become a pain in the butt to work like that. Thank you
  20. oNE would think it would make sense when you zoom with a control surface that it will center ware the timeline is. Nope!! You would think that would be an obvious feature. The latest updates took this option away. Why?? When you zoom, you want to see the zoom in the center, right? When you zoom, don't you want to see ware you are zooming? Why was a decision made to not have it centered with the timeline?

  22. Was the zoom fixed with control surfaces so that it centers?
