  1. You might have to go to your old cakewalk account and download the effects and or Sonar packages from you account. Depends on what plugins the FX chain is using. If you can't get into your old account then contact Support@cakewalk.com
  2. It is either something recorded on one of your tracks, or a build up of noise from all of them, or something that is in your playback system. This could be hum from a ground loop, noisy audio interface, noise from a guitar amp or amp sim. You would have to experiment to see where it is coming from. You could use a noise gate on the tracks to cut off the hum when the tracks are not playing. You could cut up the clips to delete the areas where no audio is playing. You could try to use a noise reduction plugin like Izotope RX to reduce the noise, find the frequency(s) and try to notch filter them out etc.
  3. If you want to mix in the wah, like the mix you mentioned with the Reverb, then you would need to put the wah VST on an aux track or a bus. Then send the desired amout of signal to the wah, or adjust the wah bus volume to the desired level.
  4. Are you saying it is too loud compared to the other tracks you have recorded? If that is the case you should just be able to turn the channel volume down or, at the top of the console strips, there is an input gain you can turn down.
  5. Did you install Cakewalk using Administrator privilege's or do you run it in Admin mode? I
  6. Really depends on what you want to do. If you want to send a bunch of tracks to be processed the same, for example to level out a bunch of background vocals, then send them to a bus and put the effect on the bus. If you only want the effect on one track then just insert it on that track. There really are not many hard rules, if it gets the effect you are after.
  7. Did you see this in the user's manual? It should be able to do transport control, mute, solo and some other things I would image. Here is an older thread about it as well.
  8. What are the project settings as far as Bit depth and Sample Rate? Cakewalk will convert any imported audio to the project sample rate. The there is the "double Presicion" checkbox and other things that might affect an export.
  9. from the Manual: https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=SoftSynths.04.html#:~:text=Click the PlugIns tab followed,on the pop-up menu. Hope this is what you are trying to do. It you have a simple instrument track (Midi and instrument combined) you should be able to right click on the track and then select "replace synth" to pick a new one. Another option is to duplicate your midi to a new midi track, insert a new synth and then point midi track to the new instrument.

    bad mic quality

    While there are better mics you should be able to get a usable signal and output with this mic without sounding muffled. Make sure you have the correct driver selected for you mic and that your project bit depth and sample rate match what the mic can do.
  11. First off, make sure that you have the most recent PreSonus Asio driver installed. Also, make sure that there are no other rogue ASIO or ASIO4All drivers on your system. From preferences in Cakewalk make sure that you are using the ASIO driver model and have the Presonus selected. If you are still getting clicks and pops on record check that directly monitoring through the Presonus, not through Cakewalk, sounds as you would expect. If this all fails then you may need to download and run Resplendence LatencyMon program to see what in your system might be causing these issues. As far a Cakewalk quitting on you, you would need to capture a dump file to send to Cakewalk staff to see if they can determine why it would be quitting. This is usually due to a audio interface driver issue or a plugin.
  12. This is the job of a control surface in cakewalk. You could try to setup a generic control surface and then map the notes that your pad's send out to move the selected track. I don't know the details of this but maybe the documentation would give you some clues. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=ExternalDevices.03.html
  13. I can't find a way to remove them all but you could bypass them all and then select all the clips and bounce them. That would get rid of the region fx without applying it to the clips. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Region_FX.01.html
  14. Sorry, I don't know how to fix what you are describing. You are saying that the now time scrolls but it not smooth and goes in spurts right? Could be a graphics issue or a CPU or Hardrive load issue. Can you create a new empty project, jut put in a single audio file or midi instrument and see if it plays back smooth or does it do the same thing?
  15. Sounds like your guitar's pickups are picking up a radio station?
  16. You must be opening a project or a template that contains these instruments. Cakewalk does not load VST's just upon opening. If you no longer use these instruments then you could try to delete them off your hardrive. If you still use them but just not in the particular project then make sure you remove not just the track but the instrument themselves from the synth rack. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Browser.11.html
  17. This seems like an issue you would need to ask Donner about. Cymbal chokes are just another midi note that needs to be mapped to the correct articulation in desired drum software. You can check what midi note the cymbal choke registers as by recording the midi of your drum controller and seeing what note is recorded when you do the choke.
  18. I know in a midi track you can apply swing by quantizing the midi notes and specifying a swing value. Don't know of any way to do the whole project unless you can select all the tracks and apply the quantize to all of them at once.
  19. Hard to tell why this would happen but it looks like it did create a crash dump. Send that to the developer of the plug-in and they may be able to tell why it is crashing and fix it. Otherwise, try to re-install your plugin. Completely un-install it and then re-install it.
  20. Are you saying the midi files have some sort of time offset built into them? I have never heard of that. I just grab a midi file and drop it where I want it usually.
  21. Did you record to a removable drive or have a removable drive or thumb drive connected to your machine? You can use a search tool like "Everything" to search all your hard drives for any wave files. Easier if you know the track names or clip names that were created. Do you have a backup?
  22. I looked for "Archive" shortcuts after seeing your post abut could not find any as well.
  23. It just give you the physical controls rather then using a mouse. Although you can also assign knobs and slider to control synth parameters, effect parameters etc.
  24. Do you have a midi device show up in the Midi->Devices? I think you have to have a midi interface show up and be selected for you to assign an instrument to it. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Dialogs2.059.html#:~:text=Cakewalk lets you assign a,see during your Cakewalk session.
