  1. Every day I wish I could search for text inside the Markers window. I record albums all in one project, same as I record multitrack concerts all in one project. Every project ends up with a ton of Markers, 50, 100, more (see attached screen cap). Song names, take numbers, best takes, best take lane solos, eff-ups, tempo wobbles, fixit notes, whole verse replacement start and stop, locations of solos, chorii etc . . . But there is no way to search. And even worse, every time you open and close the Markers dialog it loses the place you were working so you have to start at the top and scroll and scroll until you find the place you are. All day long. Even worse, during a tracking session it takes so long to locate any Marker, like a solo, that the band starts asking what's wrong and even speculating that I forgot to record it. It's embarrassing, every tracking or dubbing session. The attached image shows an album in-progress with well over 100 markers and the kind on instructions I send myself. I've learned to tag the best takes with *** as a visual aid while scrolling and scrolling. I add a whole bunch of empty Markers to make a glaringly large whitespace as a visual aid while scrolling to locate the session date (this project has 3). BUT as always, Cakewalk is incredible and ~~~RAAAWKS~~~ !!!
  2. I also find this "feature" the most destructive and irritating (way beyond irritating) thing ever added to Cakewalk. I submitted a feature request to support. If enough people do the same, maybe we'll get an off switch for it some day.
