  1. Hello. I am experiencing some clicking when playing the mix I am working on. Every time I start Cakewalk, I load the track, put on my headphones, and hit play. I solve the problem by reinstalling the latest version ASIO4ALL drivers according to the website (ASIO4ALL_2_15_Beta2_English). I have to do this every time I turn on the computer, launch the Interface Control Panel (TASCAM US-4X4), and open Cakewalk. My question is: is this an ASIO or Cakewalk problem? I have a fairly current notebook with a Micro I5-10500 and with 16 GB RAM, I do not think it is a performance problem. [Mainly Google Translate.]
  2. It looks like my nine-year-old system won't run Windows 11. This article in PC World mentions Microsoft's PC Health Check app, which includes the ability to see if your system can run Windows 11. https://www.pcworld.com/article/3622940/windows-11-system-hardware-requirements.html I downloaded it and ran it, and it looks like my system doesn't have TPM, at least not the right version. My PC runs just fine, and I don't feel like replacing it so I can run Windows 11, so I'll miss out on the excitement.
  3. BA doesn't work right on my system. I end up going to Apps & features in Windows, uninstalling Bandlab Assistant, and then to bandlab.com to download it and reinstall it.
  4. Traduction : Comme ce site a ete cree pour Cakewalk par BandLab, il peut y avoir des gens ici qui utilisent les deux produits. Je ne crois pas qu'il y ait un site comparable pour BandLab, mais il a support@bandlab.com et au moins un groupe Facebook.
  5. In English: I didn't know where to post this Bandlab question, so I figured I'd try here. Here's the problem: my guitar isn't detected by the Bandlab site. And yet it's correctly connected -- everything works fine in Cakewalk. I enter the sign-on information for the site, but nothing happens. The red mic icon stays visible next to the padlock in the web address bar, as you can see in the screenshots. Whether I click on Line, Microphone, or Other, the result is the same: no input device. I'm using an Audiobox USB 96 (OK I'm a beginner). As far as Windows settings, I've tried pretty much everything with input and output devices. I've checked the sign-ons, etc. I don't know what else to try. Thanks for your help.
  6. Root canals make the teeth brittle, and then they break or have some other terminal problem. 2-3 years ago I had #14 (top, fifth one from the front) removed. A bridge won't work, and they wanted $US 4,500.00 out of pocket for an implant. I haven't decided to do it. It's uncomfortable having the gap, and I can't really chew on that side. Tezza - I saw a specialist who seems well equipped. They'd need to build up the bone first before putting in the screw. That might be why it's so expensive. In 2003 I had a ladder accident that left one of my top two front teeth sensitive. That would have been a show stopper if I was still playing the clarinet. Fortunately I'd already switched to flute.
  7. You run the installer, and then it asks for your user ID and password. Then it loads the presets.

    Tremor

    Yeah, I definitely agree that you should talk to your doctor about it. And even though it might be hard (it was for me), it would be good to stop caffeine, at least for a while.

    Tremor

    Essential tremor runs in my family, so I figured that's what I had. Maybe I do have that, but I got diagnosed with Parkinson's last year, and tremor is one of its worst symptoms. Generally if the tremor affects both sides, it's more likely to be essential tremor. Mine affects my right side more than the left. It affects my woodwind playing more than my keyboard, and on the computer, it affects mouse usage more than keyboard. Whether it's essential tremor, Parkinson's, or just nerves, the usual drug is Propranolol (Inderal). It really helps, and for me anyway it doesn't have bad side effects. I've heard that plenty of professional musicians take it before performances.
  10. I assume you're referring to the backup scheme. I always choose Single Version Scheme. And I always choose Do not schedule. I have to select these options every time, since my choices aren't saved between sessions. I suspect that if my choices were saved, I wouldn't be having the problems.
  11. I'm still using the 2016 version, and I hate it because of the bugs. Maybe some of my problems are caused by trying to prevent it from doing backups whenever it wants. I turn off scheduling and stop the scheduler service, but that doesn't seem to convince it. And when I start the program, it immediately gets busy updating one of my existing backups. (My solution to that is make them read-only.) It's probably the buggiest program I've ever had on a personal computer, and I don't feel like paying them for another set of hassles. I am alone, or has it improved?

  13. My sister was 13 when she was diagnosed with diabetes. She knew that if she wanted to stay alive, she'd have to give herself a shot every day. Nowadays she wears an insulin pump. Congratulations on your survival and recovery.
  14. BTW if you plan to see a doctor about these matters, it's nice to be able to describe your situation in terms of the Bristol stool scale. I won't add a graphic. Google it or check Wikipedia.
  15. Thanks for pointing that out. The UI looks different on my system, but I see how to do it. Anyway, I tried the update again today, and it worked. BandLab Assistant correctly indicated that my Cakewalk wasn't updated and proceeded to update it. The cause must have been the back-end problem mentioned in another topic. Apps & Features still shows BandLab Assistant 5.0.6 and 5.2.0. Maybe it doesn't matter.
  16. I think I have a slightly different version of the rabbit hole. I use Edge to download the BandLab Assistant exe to a folder on my D drive. That's OK. But when I run the bandlab-assistant-windows-latest.exe (as administrator), I get "Windows Defender Firewall has blocked some features of this app." That seems harmless, since I can click "Allow access." I can get past that and sign in to BandLab. But then it tells me that Cakewalk is up to date. (The Cakewalk About box says 2020.04.) Maybe the problem is that in Apps & Features, I can't uninstall BandLab Assistant 5.0.6. When I try to, it uninstalls 5.2.0. If I try again to uninstall 5.0.6, I get "Windows cannot find "C:\Users\Myname\AppData\Local\Programs\bandlab-assistant\Uninstall Bandlab Assistant.exe." And when I look for that file in File Explorer, it's not there. Any suggestions?
  17. Translation: I just bought the Behringer UNC202 HD interface, and I can't make it record with Cakewalk. I already installed the interface drive [maybe CD?]. I installed Asio4all, and when I try to record, the program gives me this error message: "It was not possible to open the audio recording device. The device doesn't support the current audio format or it is in use." Please, I need help.
  18. Check out The Case Against Free Will by David Lieberman. Also think of the brain as a computer, with inputs and processing. The inputs are your experience. The processing is either built in or based on your experience.
  19. BTW "Téléchargez les instruments et samples créés par nos stagiaires" means "Download the instruments and samples created by our trainees."
  20. In Spanish-speaking countries it's Tuesday the 13th that's the bad-luck day. Not sure what to conclude from that.
  21. My antivirus (NOD Eset32) won't let me open that web page. Threat found.
  22. I've gotten used to putting little bits of black electric tape on LEDs. Even my acoustic piano has one. But I leave the yellow (add water) LED uncovered. You can always take them off for troubleshooting.
  23. The problem with the silent track I mentioned is still in the original song, but I can't reproduce it in other songs. BTW I noticed that while patch names are displayed in Massive X when the song is saved and reopened, the preset's category is lost. It's always "All Types." Also, in a saved and reopened file, there's always an asterisk by the preset name. I guess that means the patch has been changed, but I don't see it until I save the song and reopen it.
  24. Plus some new factory presets. Among other fixes, it displays envelopes graphically and saves preset names. I tested this in Cakewalk. Edit: I layered two instances, but only one plays after I save, close, and reopen the file. Tried it with another file, and it works OK. Anybody else?
  25. Translation: I have a Presonus Fire Studio card with Cakewalk, and the audio engine keeps stopping and it doesn't let me do anything. The latency and setup are correct, and I've tried 20 times. Is something like this happening to anybody else? My PC is an i5 with 16MB RAM.
