I'm currently reorganizing and reconfiguring plugins in Sonar 8.5, and there's a parameter within the "Plugin Properties" dialog box of each plugin that I'm not sure I understand. The parameter is a checkbox that says, "Serialize Host Access". What does it do? Should this checkbox be checked or unchecked?
From the Cakewalk User Guide
Serialize Host Access. When Serialize Host Access is selected, communications with the plug-in are serialized as far as
possible. The default behavior is OFF, which allows asynchronous calls to the plug-in.
When Serialize Host Access is disabled, Cakewalk’s audio engine runs more efficiently and allows the UI thread to interact
independently with the plug-in GUI without impacting the audio engine.
The only reason to enable Serialize Host Access would be for a plug-in that has thread safety problems leading to crashes or
glitches when changing plug-in presets.- 1

Noted that only Integral Measures can be inserted.. cannot do M B T string, especially n-Beats.
If you wish to insert beats, then use ticks instead of measures.
To work out the number of ticks, use the formula (Ticks per Quarter-Note) multiplied by the number of beats required.
The project’s Ticks per Quarter-Note (this is a per project setting) is found in Preferences - Project - Clock (Advanced) > Clock -

Any quick summaries you'd be able to give of how I'd go about doing that? I guess turning them off one by one and trying to re-open it?
As you open a project in safe mode, it cycles through the project’s plugins asking if you want to disable.
First bypass all, just to make sure it is a plugin.
Then you bypass one at a time.
Without knowing which plugins you use in the project, it's hard to recommend which ones to start with. -
When I edit them (which, even 2024, I do in CPA9), I make sure to move them before saving them. Their opening position on the screen is saved in the *.CakewalkStudioWare file itself. That way, they always open outside the TV.

Have you tried updating your Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables (Scroll down to X64)

Sorry folks - I was referring to Sonar.
I am starting to wonder if now is a good time for a separate forum area specifically for Sonar Early Release .....

Can it be assumed that you have tried pressing "pause" on your computer keyboard?

I paid for a year and all of the odd toast messages went away.
Paying for a year should not be needed to activate Cakewalk by Bandlab.
All the OP should need to do is sign in to Bandlab at the Browser window that appears after clicking on CbB Help > Sign in to Bandlab (Or sign out then in).- 1

Thanks, but this doesn't help, because I don't want to bypass the plugins. I want to find whats causing them to not work and fix it.
It's to bypass the plugins to assist in troubleshooting which one is causing the issue.....

Hi guys. My C drive is a 1 TB SSD. I'm currently using only 200 GB with 742 GB free. I'm wanting to stock up on a bunch of free vst's.
Will it slow down my computer at all if I use another 200 GB of space for VST's.
I've read that it only slows down when it gets near full. Is that accurate? Thanks
If the c drive is the only space for you plugins that by all means use that. If you have another drive with lots of free space then use that.
If you do need to use c drive, just make sure you have plenty of free space therein still.
In your case, you will have tons. Merely having the VSTs present will not slow down your PC
What will slow down your Cakewalk start up is if you have Cakewalk scan those plugins at Cakewalk start up. I do on demand scans when ever I add new VSTs.- 1

Open a problem project in Safe mode (Hold shift while opening project). This will let you bypass your plugins.

Set Workspace to “None” or “advanced”

A quick Google says EastWest instruments do not respond to CC7 by default (although I'm guessing it can be MIDI Learned). It uses CC11 Expression or possibly CC1 in some cases.
Well, that explains why the MIDI track volume slider does not change volume. These particular sliders send CC7 in its attempt to adjust volume.
In the case of an default EastWest instrument being configured as a simple instrument track in Cakewalk, you have to use the volume slider of the audio track component to affect volume. -

Which, to answer, is EastWest Piano Steinway, and yeah, instrument track.
If you manually put in a CC7 event in a controller lane, does the volume of the piano change?

I have made an AutoHotHey script that only starts the NTKDaemonService service when I start Native Access. It also stops the service when I exit Native Access.
I also set the NTKDaemonService service to “manual”.
Of course, this gets set to “Automatic” every time Native Access is updated. Therefore, my script also sets the NTKDaemonService service to “manual”.
Here is the AutoHotHey script#SingleInstance force
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
#NoTrayIconRunWait, sc \\POC config "NTKDaemonService" start= demand
RunWait, NET START "NTKDaemonService",,Hide
RunWait, "C:\Program Files\Native Instruments\Native Access\Native Access.exe"
RunWait, NET STOP "NTKDaemonService",,Hide- 1

What have you tried so far?
Have you tried different sample buffer sizes.
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers for your Audio Interface.
While you’re at it, you might want to head to the manufacturer’s website to see if there is a later version (Don’t use Windows Update).
What are your PC specs? -

Disabling HDMI audio in device manger is sometimes helpful
Yes, true. That is one thing I have done. (actually listed under “System Devices” as a “High Definition Audio Controller” entry)

If it's the slider of the MIDI track you are turning down, and it's not reducing the volume, you need to make sure the synth you are using responds to CC7 events. Many do, but not all.
So the question is, which specific VSTi are you wanting to control the volume of, and have you confirmed that this synth does indeed respond to CC7 events? -
Is Helix Native's master volume exposed as a automation. Then maybe use Cakewalk's remote control function.

i downloaded the setup file and double clicked it for set up and selected the language then i got the message whenever i try. there's nothing wrong with the wifi. please help me
You need to create an account here, https://www.bandlab.com
Then from the help menu of Cakewalk by Bandlab, select sign in to Bandlab.
This will open a browser window to Bandlab. Use your new Bandlab account username and password to sign in.
Activation will only occur if you do it from Cakewalk by Bandlab’s help menu. Simply being logged on to Bandlab proir to running Cakewalk by Bandlab is not enough. -

Been a while, so-Is it worth going to Win 11 Pro?

That would answer it for me - even if My PC could update to it.
Maybe some time in 2025 I would think about it.
