I have used Cakewalk for live performances since it's early days (40+ years). I usually use a .cwt midi file that I have crafted for each song, I put the lyrics up in view and hit play. It sounds through the PA just like I hear it from my computer through headphones. I have recently wanted to have the midis come up quicker, so I tried Live Performance. First of all, Live Performance add window does not bring up .cwt files. So I resaved each song as a .mid file and then added those files to Live Performance. When I played the first two midi songs I found that the mix was off. Some parts were louder than I had mixed them to be. The midi sounds were tonally different. Not for the better. Is there a way to load my original .cwt files? Will that give me the same mix and tonality that I get when I just play each song from the standard play window? Any ideas?
