  1. You can also use the Selection module to switch this on / off, when it is in large mode:
  2. That reminds me of my first job as an intern doing the mainframe backup.... I spent every Friday feeding 5 huge tape machines one by one with 200 tapes. Shortly after I left, they replaced the lot with two DAT drives.
  3. @Hung HIT - can you zip up your project folder and send it to @Jonathan Sasor? Hopefully we can work out what is going on.
  4. Sorry to hear that @Wookiee - if you're comfortable with a soldering iron, you might want to open it up and check the capacitors on the power supply. If any of them are swollen, or burst they should be easy enough to replace for less than £5 - £10. I've had to do this with two of my monitors.
  5. @Andres Medina - we've worked out why the Entire Mix bounce gets distorted. An Entire Mix bounce mixes ALL of your audio outputs into a single stereo wave. The way you've got your projects set up, is having your Master Bus going to 1&2, and Speakers going to 3&4. So the bounce is mixing the outputs of 1&2 and the outputs of 3&4 together, causing it to be twice as loud. You'll get the same issue when using categories of: Tracks through Entire Mix Entire Mix Arrangements Arranger Sections Mix Recall Presets The workaround, is to mute the mains output for 3 & 4 before you do your bounce, e.g: To get the mains into view, drag the vertical splitter bar to the extreme right of the console view. Alternatively, use the inspector when your Speakers bus is the active bus:
  6. I'm not sure exactly what you mean here. The export location is stored inside the task at the time it is added. That way, each task can have a different export location. Changing the export location in the dialog will not change the tasks - you'll have to recall each one and update them.
  7. For iOS devices: https://iphone.apkpure.com/daw-control/com.wiksnet.dawcontrol For android: https://xmmc.de/touchdaw/ Although FWIW, I use one of these stuck to the wall exactly for this purpose: https://www.amazon.co.uk/KORG-nanoKONTROL2-Slimline-Controller-Black/dp/B004M8UZS8/
  8. @Syphus - until we support sub-folders, this won't be possible as track templates could themselves contain folders . In the meantime you'll need insert the track template as normal, then move the tracks into a folder manually.
  9. You'd be better off going to eLance and getting someone to write you a small app that listens on a MIDI port and fires off HTTP requests in response to MIDI notes. You'd then just sequence the notes that match up with your marker numbers in Cakewalk, making sure the MIDI output port is the one the app is listening on.
  10. One thing to bear in mind when using Process->Normalize / ALT + SHIFT + N, is that you should consider apply trimming or bounce to clip(s) to each clip individually before normalizing it. The reason being, is that when a clip is split or slip-edited, the remaining parts of the clip are still there even though hidden, and will be included in what is being considered when normalizing. This is especially true for split clip, where you've actually got two copies of the entire clip when it's split. Of course, after apply trimming or bounce to clip(s), you won't be able to slip edit the hidden parts back in any more.
  11. I've done it, and to be honest I'd advise against using the Arduino to receive MIDI - it's fine at sending MIDI, but I found it's too slow / memory is too small to receive stuff. I constantly got buffer overflows, and when I protected against that, it just ended up losing MIDI data. You'd be better off using a Raspberry Pi zero. The price is comparable, but the difference in speed and memory is massive. It's also way easier to program, and you've several options of languages.
  12. This is there to allow reverb tails to continue after the end of the audio. If you have reverbs on your track (and you're bouncing with effects), they'll get cut off if this is set to zero. 20 secs is the cut-off point where it just gives up, but most of the time it'll cut off well before then unless you've got a really long reverb.
  13. There's always this an alternative... and it's free: https://www.patreon.com/posts/harqules-34306427
  14. CAL was last supported in Cakewalk Pro Audio 9, and deprecated when SONAR 1 came out in 2002 ( not to be confused with SONAR X1 ). It's not discontinued, just no longer maintained.
  15. I seriously doubt it's that sinister. With it being AI based, it's far more likely that they need more data to continually improve their learning algorithm. There's only so much data you can cook up yourself to train these models.
  16. The range was never saved with presets, only in the tasks. I suspect what you were seeing before was just co-incidental. It makes no sense to save the selection range in the presets, as the presets are global and a selection range is project specific.
  17. Thanks for this - the cause has been identified and has been fixed for the next release.
  18. Yes, it will be in this circumstance. A source category of Tracks taps the output before it hits any buses; Track Through Entire Mix is essentially that track solo'd, and tapped after the main output.
  19. +1 to this processor - I use this as well, although I'm just using the on board graphics with 2 x 1080P monitors and 16GB RAM. One thing I would say though, is I didn't notice a huge difference in performance between the i5 3570 and the i7 3770 - probably only around 15% difference. But pricewise, the i5 is 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the i7.
  20. If your track effects have side chains would you want the track effects on without the side chain? That doesn't make sense to me, as the side chain is effectively part of the effect. I think what you're probably talking about is not having the track effects at all, in which case switch them off in the Mix & Render options:
  21. Another way of doing this is just to pick the left only input on your track: The advantage of this, is that it will record as mono, but you can leave your interleave as stereo so you can add stereo effects on to it if needed.
  22. Seems to be back up with a new SSL cert.
  23. It's worth re-iterating that some plugins don't support up-sampling, particularly bridged 32 bit ones. Also some plugins might sound different - for example the rate / depth in TH3/THU's chorus pedal goes at half the speed when running at either X2 or when my audio i/f is set to 96KHz. I must get around to reporting this to Overloud.
  24. It could also be your Anti-virus or a cloud-sync app accessing the file at the same time. Make sure your Cakewalk projects directory is excluded from any of these. For cloud backup, I use a couple of batch files to copy my project files to/from a different drive which my cloud app syncs from. That way it's not trying to sync stuff while I'm in the middle of editing or recording. I can choose when to run the batch files to sync to the cloud.
  25. The "Not enough memory available" error means the device is already open by another application. Make sure Cakewalk isn't running when you install the Softube software.
