Disable every power saving feature you can find. What graphics card do you have? Have you turned off core parking (or the AMD equivalent). In your Power Options, is your Minimum Processor Sate and Maximum Processor Sate both set to 100%

O&O_Diskimage to create a biweekly image of the windows drive Novabackup to do a nightly backup of files Both automated to external drive

If you have an Nvidia card, in the Nvidia Control Panel | Manage 3D settings, set "Power Management Mode" to "Prefer Maximum Performance"

What I do is when I configure and save a lense, I use Lense Manager to deselect Windows layout for that lense. That way, Windows layouts are solely handled by Screensets. Because I do this, changing Lenses has no effect on Windows layouts.

This is a CAL script that I wrote that should do the task. After selecting all the notes, run the script. It asks the nth number of notes to select - in your case , you enter 2 Every nth note will remain selected. (do (int note_number 1) (int even 0) (int nth 2) (getInt nth "Please enter nth note" 2 50) (forEachEvent (if (== Event.Kind NOTE) (do (= even (% note_number nth)) (if (== even 1) (do );exit do (do (delete) (insert Event.Time Event.Chan NOTE Note.Key Note.Vel Note.Dur) ) );exit if (++ note_number) );exit do );exit if );exit for );exit do

Which version and build number of Cakewalk do you have. Are you using ASIO driver mode? The following is assuming the latest Cakewalk by Bandlab What you might want to try is, with Cakewalk closed, rename your AUD.INI file and then restart Cakewalk. This will rebuild the AUD.INI file. The AUD.INI file is located in the following folder: %APPDATA%\cakewalk\Cakewalk Core

Well, not route it to the audio track, but to the Amp sim itself. Assuming you have enabled MIDI in on the Amp sim VST itself, when you click on the "Output" of the MIDI track, "Neural DSP Archetype Nolly" should appear on the drop down list of destinations the MIDI track can be sent to. Simply select "Neural DSP Archetype Nolly". Then you select the old fcb1010 as the input of that MIDI track and enable Echo on on that MIDI track. Now the FCB MIDI data will be routed to the Neural DSP Archetype Nolly via that MIDI track.

To be honest.... I don't really import two mono tracks. I simply record stereo tracks using two inputs of the Focusrite 2i2 If you wanted to duplicate a track (to EQ it) and then mix it back to the original, you could send the original track to an AUX track. EQ that AUX track, Then send both it, and the original track to a bus.

You really need to tell us which Amp Simulator plug-in you're using. Does you Amp Simulator plug-in allow MIDI in to be enabled? If so, then enable MIDI in on the Amp Simulator plug-in. Then create a MIDI track and route its output to the Amp Simulator plug-in

That depends what you mean by "additional adjustment". Once the tracks have been bounced to a stereo track it's set in stone What you could do is not bounce at all. You could route the two mono tracks to a bus. Alternatively, you can route the two mono tracks to another track via patch points. The destination track would then be an Aux track. If you want to do separate processing of the left and right channels independently of each other, you would have to do that to the mono tracks. If you want to do further processing on the tracks as a pair, you can do that either to the bus or the aux track.

Assuming track 1 contains the desired left channel and track 2 contains the desired right channel Pan track 1 to the left Pan Track 2 to the Right Select track 1 and 2 only Perform Bounce to track (Under Tracks menu) On the Bounce to track dialogue box select the following: Destination - where you want to stereo track to be placed. Source Category - either Hardware Outputs or entire mix or Buses (if you select bus, make sure you select the correct bus) Channel Format - Stereo As a test I tried this recipe and it worked here.

Works fine here. How, exactly, are you attempting to invoke Paste Special?

They way I do it is left drag a clip to a new location while depressing CTRL. This creates a duplicate of the clip at the new location. If you want to restrain the horizontal or vertical position, depress SHIFT as well.

I was able to do it on my system. Albeit I used Sampletank 4 with two parts , one being keys on MIDI Channel 1 and and another , strings on MIDI Channel 2 I created 2 MIDI tracks, both routed to Sampletank 4. I set MIDI track 1 to Channel 1 and track 2 to channel 2 and I was able to control the tracks in Sampletank 4 independently. I set the input of the MIDI tracks to Omni - therefore it did not matter what channel the MIDI controller was set to. Whatever channel a respective MIDI tracks is set to determines the track that is played by Sampletank 4 Even though I did this with Sampletank 4, I am sure Kontact would be the same principle. What version of Cakewalk are you using?

Check the inspector (press i on your computer keyboard) for the MIDI tracks playing Kontakt . Set the MIDI channel of the track controlling the keys to channel 1 and the MIDI channel of the track controlling the strings to channel 2

Define "a problem". We need more information.

What I do is have a separate MIDI track for each soft synth. Even though the MIDI channel generally won't matter, I usually stick to channel one - unless the synth is a multitimbral synth.

Assuming you have installed all the plugins on the destination PC, on the source PC, saving as a bundle for the purpose of the transfer may work.

Windows 10 is excellent, once you tell it who's boss....

With the smart tool enabled (Sounds like you already have it enabled) If you hold the mouse button down then move the mouse slightly, the note will be placed If you hold the mouse button down and then move the mouse more before releasing you can set the duration. Moving to the right sets to duration. Moving to the left sets the duration by setting the start of the note but locks the end of the note. Convoluted, yes, but you do get used to this. Personally, I would like a single click to just place a note - to do that, select the draw tool - but you can't set the duration.

Yes, Norton has been known to be a bit of a hog. There is a debate whether turning off Windows updates is actually a good idea or not with fiery battles raging between those that say you should and shouldn't. In fact, I believe entire planets have been destroyed over this issue. Granted, the destruction is limited to merely our own galaxy. Personally, I think Windows updates should not be disabled as they usually contain important bug fixes and security updates that end users are not aware of or have not not come across. What I do, however, is tell Windows not to touch drivers as Microsoft could potentially replace perfectly good drivers with their generic ones. When ever someone has installed Windows updates and they are having issues since, this is usually the reason. There are several ways to allows Windows updates get tell Windows not to touch drivers. See. https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-automatic-driver-updates-windows-10

Exactly which version and build number of Cakewalk by Bandlab are you using?

Mind sharing the solution?

There has got to be something else going on. The only thing that has caused Addictive Drums to need reactivation is a milestone update of Windows 10. At other times, I have never had issues after a Cakewalk by Bandlab update or a non milestone Windows 10 update. On my machine, it just works. Have you checked the system event viewer for hardware issues that my be contributing. Especially check for any disk errors. IF CbB is crashing, drop a note to Cakewalk support and include the crash dump file - Available from here: %APPDATA%\cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\miniDumps

Check the folder as defined in the following registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Cakewalk VST X64\VSTInternalPath This folder location as defined in this registry entry should contains your Pro channel modules DLLs
