Did you see Cakewalk Software's Facebook post today?

I hope you haven't been caught by the bandlab.dev partnership scam...
https://www.facebook.com/CakewalkInc/
 

Does anybody know more about it?

really like this one
http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Mixing.07.html

FYI

yes, try this one:

http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Mixing.49.html

If your PC is too slow in switching these, bounce the Mix scenes and send them through a bus without effects.

PS: To switch between the bounced versions use "exclusive solo"-switch and the solo buttons of the bounced tracks.

I'd just right-click on the clip, select "Convert to mono". Afterwards I'd switch the track to interleave = mono. Wondering if it works for you, too.

Please try a before-after-listening to avoid bad surprises

Sound great. Just some more ideas / questions on this:

What would be the exact benefits of having a native cakewalk sampler in comparison to VST samplers like Momentum,

ADSR etc. regarding the workflow? Would it be a real time saver? What would be the integration points in cakewalk's

media browser etc.?

I think a more detailed view on these advantages could better demonstrate the need of e.g. a loop construction view++

including a midi controlled use of the slices. Let's find some more brainstorms.

BTW: Isn't it possible to use FL Studio as a VST plugin in Cakewalk? Does maybe even its sampler work in this case?

Same here.

BandLab Assistend doesn't download anything. It shows "Downloading... (0/0)" making no progress.

Downloading from within Cakewalk works. After pressing "Install Now", a error message appears, telling me that the installer executable cannot be found. The displayed pathname is not correct, a special character in my user name (which is part of the download pathname) is corrupted.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Jürgen

Have you tried to setup the download path cakewalk folder as an exception in the windows defender setup? Maybe the download gets quarantined for its lack of a signature…

Viel Erfolg!

Please, add a gain in/out knobs on EQ PC module, it would be great for gain staging and mixing

As a workaround you may place an empty FX-Chain-PC-Module before and after the EQ-PC-Module.
The FX-Chain-PC-Module has two gain knobs, indeed. 😉

‘Duplicate Selected Clip(s) as Linked Clips’ command

To duplicate the selected clip(s) as linked clips, press CTRL+SHIFT+D.

I dont understand what is this suppose to do... I just seems like the same duplicate that was already in place. Am I missing something here?

see https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR X2&language=3&help=Arranging.32.html

If clips are linked, they all own the same content, e.g. if you change one - you change all of them.

Have you tried de-selecting "Realtek Digital Output" and selecting "Speakers..." on the first page? Always first de-select, then select audio devices... 😉

The trick is to deactivate the OBS preview after fittting all together in OBS so your CPU has more power left to encode the video file. And if you use the same resolution for the screen and the recorded file the CPU won't need to render this up or down... Have fun 😉
PS:

Chris Lee indeed is a sensational good RnB singer and Cakewalk user!

Do you know  you can drag&drop loops etc from the Bandlab Assistant to cakewalk.

But beware: Many Bandlab-Loops have silence at the beginning.

So you should zoom in left, cut the clip and apply the trimming before using them e.g. in the loop construction view.

Have fun 😉

Has anybody here tried SINE-Player / "Layers" on http://getsine.com ?

Sounds like an interesting type of instrument by just playing chords and selecting the chord types with lower notes on your keyboard.

The sound qualtity is amazing.

Hey Arthur, please try to

1. drag & drop the loop into cakewalk.

2. Zoom in and cut the clip on the left to the proper starting point

3. Right-click on the clip and choose "Apply trimming" - this is where the magic happens 😉

4. Open the clip in loop editor

Feeling better this way?

Have you also tried "AZ Controller"? I personally use a Roland A-PRO300 with ACT but I have in mind that AZ Ctlr helped a lot of people using other stuff:

I recognize more and more professional producers get to know cakewalk, use it and share tutorials on YT. You may find a new guy nearly every week, e.g. this real good one:
https://www.youtube.com/user/Pvtchrislee07

 

I appreciate all of you doing tutorials for cakewalk. We all have much to learn from each other.
Here's another smart guy who does tutorials on making RnB music using Cakewalk:

Have fun

I would refer to this:  "Please ask Dr. Mike" 😉

My crystal ball won't undo

if the crystal ball can redo without undo before - then it works 😉 correctly...

I always unsolo and unmute all tracks, then mute the reference track.

Afterwards I group the mute und solo buttons of the reference track on group "S" (right mouse button).

That does a wonderful job => I only have to click on one button (mute or solo) on the reference track to switch between the two settings.

All the best to you

ThxAloT for this brilliant wholistic approach to an important issue.

I came to SonarX1 buying a "Roland Quad-Capture" interface.

BTW: Phantom Power, High-Z and  Ground Lift switches are on the back 😉

All the best to you...

In which way does it depend on our setup?

WAN-Spedd and PING-times 😉

See this video of XELohh for more Info:

have fun

Have you tried ReaStream (comes free with Reaper)? But it depends on your setup...

If one can do then @scook can do it 😉
