Hi, what is the best way to delete a Cakewalk project? I've seen it suggested to simply remove the files and folders affiliated with the name of the project. This doesn't seem quite right to me. Seems like it might screw with the (Windows) registry, and that it might leave remnants to possibly foul things up. Any suggestions, any thoughts? Thank you.

Thank you all! Problem solved.

I could easily start this project over again but…my Master Output track disappeared. How can I get it back, and how did I lose it to begin with?

Hello, when I’m either listening to tracks, or recording a new track, prior to the mastering process, does it make a difference if I use Speakers or Master as the output? It doesn’t seem to matter, but is either one better for monitoring, via headphones by the way. Thanks.

I don’t know how to phrase this into the form of a query that a search engine will digest. While I’m with recording, or listening back, I can’t see the actual tracks move from right to left. They’re stalled out. I can scroll to any point in the track and look at the waves, and listen to the track…what have I done? Thanks

Hi, I want to tweak my guitar sound to make it sound as much like a harp as possible. I can use my acoustic or my electric depending upon which would be easier. Is there a native app to help me do this? Thank you

I recently recorded a piano track onto my iPad using BandLab. I edited the track, dividing it into clips. I then applied several plug in processes, EQ, compressor and reverb. Some of the clips sound different than the other ones. My question is: if a track (or a clip) is imported into Cakewalk, does it lose the previous attributes from the actual recording and gain all of the attributes which are applied on the CW track? Thank you.

Thank you Jim Gaynor

I have a piano track that I recorded into BandLab. The location of the piano did not lend itself as a decent recording environment, and I recorded directly into my iPad (on which BandLab is installed). I imported it into Cakewalk, and I’ve gotten to sound a little bit better, but still sounds like shit in the end mix. There are many online articles that go into detail of how to deal with bass rumble, from a bass, but I’ll specifically looking for an outline/outlines of how to remove the deal-breaking low end that comes from the piano. My skill level as a recording engineer is about 3 on a scale of 1 - 10. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you, -Ken

Hello, The video track is most annoying, for those of us who don’t do video. No matter how I try to lose this nuisance, it keeps popping out again. It interferes with my tracking process, in general. How do I get it out, and make it stay out? Thank you.

I think I found the solution to my problem. Stopping and re-starting the audio engine has been allowing me to publish a Cakewalk project to BandLab. Hopefully this is the end of this story. Thanks to all who have read and responded.

Thank you Mark McLeod, the fix seemed to be de-activating the board’s FX settings. Now I’m getting miked and direct. Thank you!

Thank you David Baay

Hi, I’m accumulating drum samples from an assortment of real drums. I have some decent beats down already; I want to bring in a new drum sample, with a different sound, and set the existing beat using the new sound. There’s got to be an easy way to do this. Any ideas? Thanks, -Ken

I didn’t even look at the account solution, but you need to have a backup system and use it. Likely CW will store previous version of each production; I prefer to publish an afternoon’s work to BandLab.
