I have been wanting a dark mode for quite a while now for all of the Augmented series I actually don’t think we will ever see it - even after numerous feature requests at Arturia. They say, “yeah, great idea” - then nada!

Just to add: The “specified channel” is the MIDI channel you have set your MIDI (or Simple Instrument) Track to. When you add a MIDI (or Simple Instrument) Track, the default MIDI channel is set to. What I do is create track templates of MIDI tracks with the MIDI channel already set to a number, rather than “None”.

I thought of that too and tried it.... nada! Order not changed.

Mine was more on the "MY PRODUCT" → "SEE MORE" page (US$199.00 as opposed to US$149.00)

That looks right to me too. MIDIox should be showing Data coming in when you press the sustain pedal. Maybe you have a faulty Alesis v49.

In Preferences - MIDI - Devices, how many ports are listed for the Mikro?

You need to check you user guide for your Alesis v49 midi controller to see if there is a way to make the pedal send CC64 events. From page 6 of the Alesis v49 midi controller user guide “You can also use the V Editor software to set the sustain pedal to send other MIDI CC messages to your software. See the V Editor's User Guide to learn how to do this.”

Yes, this is basic midi stuff. What virtual synth are you using? Have you enabled input echo on your MIDI track or Simple Instrument track?

Thanks for clarifying that. I have a hunch that, even after Sonar has been publicly released, Cakewalk by BandLab 2023.09 Build 75 will still be available (and activatable) for some time yet to allow users time to transition to the new Sonar.

Yes

Did you perform the clean install after a fresh reboot? Is this even after deleting the entire “C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core” folder during your clean install process? By “clean install”, can it be assumed you deleted the relevant registry entries?

Yes

Looks like you need to do a clean install of Cakewalk. Make sure you back up your projects before doing this. https://help.cakewalk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034066393-Clean-Install-Cakewalk-by-BandLab

What?

Or just get a better compressor where side chaining just works with out all the fluffing around.....

It will be a sad day when the average listener will not even care that lyrics are written by AI.

By default, specific keybindings can be loaded from Workspaces. Because of this, for any Workspaces I use, I configure those Workspaces not to load their specific keybindings. Under “Manage Workspaces”, you can configure individual Workspaces not to load keyboard shortcuts. I prefer keybindings to be global. You have to be careful when loading Workspaces. If you load a Workspace that has been configured to load their specific shortcuts, these will overwrite your global keybindings. I made that mistake once and had to restore just my keybindings from a registry backup I make of my keybindings. When ever I change a keybinding, I also export my keybindings to a KBN file for Justin.

I did another download and still got the 590,811,736. Might be due to slightly different disk sector allocation. As long as it runs and installs. As far as the activation of CbB in concerned - I think that will be possible for quite a while yet - at least until the Bakers decide to pull the plug on CbB (I believe that's a long way off). The new Cakewalk Sonar will be well and truly released and established before that happens.

Do a fresh install of Cakewalk by Bandlab on a PC that has never had Cakewalk installed. Do this using the web installer: https://downloads.bandlab.com/cakewalk/setup/CakewalkSetup.exe When the installation phase has started and completed, the full installer exe should be in the following folder: %userprofile%\Downloads\Cakewalk The filename is “Cakewalk_by_BandLab_Setup_29.09.0.075.exe” with a filesize of 590,811,736 bytes

Here is one of mine. If a MIDI track is set to a specific MIDI channel rather than “none”, then PRV controller lanes for those MIDI tracks should display a given controller regardless of what the MIDI channel individual controller events are set to. This is because a MIDI track’s specific MIDI channel overrides any MIDI channel that individual events are set to when sending that MIDI event to a synth. This is similar to CPA9's “ALL channels” option where one defines what channel to display. In CbB, the “ALL channels” is missing when adding a controller lane in the PRV. Also, a patch change lane in the PRV would be nice. If I was a BETA tester for Sonar, this is one thing I would mention in the closed forum.

If you have set up a MIDI device’s MIDI port to use ACT, then that MIDI port becomes unavailable elsewhere. Because of this, many controllers have two virtual MIDI ports therein. I know the PCR-800 does. Have a look in Preferences - MIDI - Devices and make sure more than one is selected under “Inputs”. Determine which one you’ve configured to use ACT. Then use the other elsewhere.

I just signed up with Discord anyway, just in case.

These things lose me at “robot”.....

Run Native Access to update.

Sorry, I flubbed my original post (now corrected). If program changes are important to you with plugins, then choose the VST2 version of a given plugin (if available). Program changes will not be guaranteed with VST3 plugins (regardless of DAW or host).
