  1. If you are not making a new instance, creating a new instrument, of Native Control, then you will have to use different midi channels to have a new midi track trigger new sounds. By the way, I didn't know Native Control could produce sounds, I thought it was just a patch and instrument browser.
  2. Some links that may help you https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Tempo.12.html https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=AudioSnap.07.html
  3. One thing to try is reduce the BIT DEPTH from 32 down to 24 or even 16 bit and see if this helps. Sometimes these problems have to do with Virtual Instruments in your project as well. If you are using VSTi's then bounce them to audio first or try a "Real-time" (disable fast bounce) render. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=Dialogs1.46.html
  4. Melodyne Studio will do this, but not in real-time. You have your guide vocal in one track then record yourself in another track while listening to the guide track. Then once recorded you can apply melodyne to both tracks and compare how you did "visually". But you need the Studio version to show multiple tracks at the same time.
  5. I have been using 4K TVs for monitors at work and home for about 3 or 4 years now. People that game don't like them because they usually don't have the refresh rate that good Computer Monitors have. However, for what I do they work good and are much cheaper. Another drawback is that the 4K tvs that are cheap start at around 40" and you need a big desk or to sit a ways away from the monitor to view it.
  6. It depends on what CC the slider is sending and what the contact instrument is setup to listen for. You can use the Korg utility to tell the controller which CCs to output on what physical controller. Then in Kontakt you need to know or map the things you want to control to be mapped by the CC being sent out by the controller. For example: Usually CC2 is used for dynamics in instruments like strings and orchestra. So on your Korg controller whichever physical knob or slider is setup to send CC2 would control the dynamics in a loaded Kontakt instrument that has CC2 mapped to dynamics.
  7. This thread talks about getting the nanokontrol2 working with Cakewalk. Do you want to use it as a control surface for faders, pan, transport or more for controlling synth parameters?
  8. I have mixbus V7, Studio One and Cakewalk. I alternate between Cakewalk and Studio One to stay up on using them. I use Mixbus occasionally but it is mostly just a backup.
  9. A defrag/optimize would not move files around from the user point of view. Don't know how they would have moved but it is usually user error on our part that things like this happen. A unintended mouse click or keystroke sequence is what I have seen on my part.
  10. First off, You will get more views to your issue in the general Cakewalk forum. It is important to know your audio interface, driver mode, etc. to try to help. If you are using on-board audio you also need to make sure that the settings in Cakewalk match Windows settings. Please look at some of the tutorials, specifically the audio hardware setup ones, in the tutorials forum. https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/2-cakewalk-by-bandlab/
  11. This is probably due to now having your sound device setup correctly. Cakewalk, like Cubase, is not a simple program. You would want to start by reading some of the tutorials in the manual or viewing the tutorials in the tutorials part of the forum.

    New user help

    Are you saying that when you play with the keyboard the sound are sustained if you hold down the key, but if you record and then playback the notes are all short? Can you open the Piano Roll view (PVR) and look at the notes? Are they sustained or short? Have you gone over any of the Tutorial in the tutorials part of this forum?

  15. I doubt anyone will just know what is going on. However, since it seems related to a user login and your interfaces driver I would suggest a clean un-install of your Focusrite driver and a re-install logged in to your account. It could be a file or device permission issue. If this doesn't make any difference then you might have to check windows system logs to see if it gives you any clues as to what is happening.
  16. I updated to windows 11 this Summer or late Spring. I have not noticed any issues with my system or plug-ins. Your experience may vary.
  17. Finally upgraded my Hyperion Strings Micro to the Elements Version for $30. Now to go play with them.
  18. You might have to explain your setup in a bit more detail for someone to help you. I am not expert at Kontakt but I use it enough to get by. Make sure you have all 16 outputs defined in Kontakt and that you can see signal going to them from within Kontakt. Then assign those outputs to the input of your associated audio tracks. Are you a simple instrument track or separate midi and audio tracks? Here is a video that might help as well.
  19. Submit a support request to support@cakewalk.com
  20. So... Are you using a MIDI instrument (VSTi) to create your guitar sound or do you have a wave file? Guitar Pro is a guitar notation program that has some built in sounds but is basically playing midi notes of the notation into a synthesizer instrument. If your using a MIDI instrument then there is no need for stretching audio. If your track is audio then to make a double you don't need to stretch it either. Just duplicate the track, pan both tracks opposite and then add a small delay (1-5 ms) to one of them. This is called the HAAS effect. If you want a true double to make the track seem wider you need to actually play it again with different timing and slight pitch differences. There are plug-ins that mimic a double tracked instruments but they use the same principles mentioned above. With all that being said, I don't know of any polyphonic Elastic audio. There are Elastic audio settings for when you stretch audio but it doesn't have a "polyphonic" mode. See https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=AudioSnap.23.html
  21. Running Win 11 and Cakewalk here with no troubles.
  22. Not in cakewalk. There are other tools that will do it but they are external VSTs or tools.
  23. I have never got takes to work if you don't use them just for composting a track from the takes. If you have multiple un-muted takes at the same place in the timeline then when you apply a fade then Cakewalk doesn't know what you are trying to fade, the clip to its neighbor or to the clip right underneath it. Best to either bounce all the clips into one clip per timeline segment per track or use multiple tracks for each take. You could also submit a feature request specifying how you would like it to work in the https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/8-feedback-loop/ forum
