We will need more information to know how to help. What audio interface are you using? What driver mode and buffer settings? Where are you playing back the audio file, imported into a track or previewing it in the browser? Have you looked through any of the troubleshooting guides? http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Troubleshooting.01.html

My experience has been that working with the take lanes to do anything other then comping takes, and even then at times, can cause problems. I wish the take lanes worked without bugs but they seem to have quirks that hinder my workflow. For now I try to move to do all my work in tracks so I don't see these problems. Sorry, not at fix for you just expressing sympathy and my workaround.

Suggestions; Run a "scan disk" on that drive to see if there are any erros. Un-hide all files, maybe they are hidden, system, swap file on that drive.

Each of those lanes represent a "take" that you did. You may have been overdubbing or addting parts to the track. You are supposed to select the takes that you like best and the resulting comped track is what you see, and hear, in the master track. Once you have the track the way you want it you can click and swipe to select all the clips in your master track and bounce to clip. This will combine all the little snippets of clips and make one clip. You can then ignore, delete, mute or do whatever you want with the take lanes. If you wanted all the clips to play at the same time then you should have used sound-on-sound recording mode. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Arranging.48.html

When you move your knob on your controller do you see the knobs move in the software? That would be the first thing I would check to make sure the mapping is working. Then if they move in realtime they should record on the selected track when record is enabled. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Automation.01.html

You have to set the original tempo of the clip, if it is not detected automatically, by clicking on the clip and in the Inspector setting the original temp. Then make sure it is marked as a groove clip. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=Looping.05.html

The ones in the "Tutorials" forum.

Could it be that you have linked clips in those other tracks that are linked to ones you are editing?

Try this https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=Arranging.23.html I strongly recommend going through the documentation or viewing all the videos in the tutorial section.

Or start with the manual http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=toc.html

It could have something to do with your audio interface and driver mode you aer using. What driver mode, audio interface and buffer settings are you using? Also, you mention X3e. Are you running an old version of Cakewalk?

If you made linked copies of the original clip and duplicated them then changing one would change them all. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Arranging.27.html

I don't normally export midi files so I am of little use other then pointing people to the documentation. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Exporting.18.html

If you open a bundle file it should contain all the audio needed for the project. Then if you save it as a .cwp file make sure you check, "copy project audio", when you save. Cakewalk should not be deleting any audio files so that would be strange. It could be that extracting the bundle file was not complete? https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=FileManagement.3.html

Probably sime kind of controller CC data.

The question is nebulous enough but if you have some 808 samples you can use them in several ways. You can just load them into a track and duplicate them in the locations you desire. You can load them into a drum pad in Session Drummer or other sampler and trigger them with MIDI. Here are some threads that talk about simmiliar things.

IIR processing is one area where a GPU could succeed since IIR processing is doing a convolution process, IE vector processing. Other algorithms will be harder to implement on a GPU. Lets see where it goes.

I don't know but some things to try. Bounce the midi clip. drag it out to the browser or explorer and then drag it back in?

This is the reason there is a "Ripple Edit Feature" It should move all data as you move things around. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=Arranging.22.html The other option is to do cut/paste special and see if that move automation. If all else fails select all automation, from automation lane or in Automation view of the track, and drag the nodes all together. If you hold shift or cntl while dragging it will limit the nodes to vertical or horizontal movent so you don't up and down while moving horizontally.

I would contact Melodyne and see if they have heard about this in any other Daws.

Thats the kind of tutorial I like. So I can show that I can't make the tracks sound good even with copying their mix moves. But I do learn from them. Interesting web site design. They ask for your name and email. The fields are the same color as the background so you can't see what you entered unless you select it. Then they give you some checkboxes that look like options but you have to select them

For recording into a mic sound isolation is important in a headphone. Look for ones that are closed back, maybe that have rotating earpieces. I have some AudioTechnica AT45s. Many others would work and would be well within your budget. If you want to use them for mixing then that is a different set of parameters.

It more then likely is due to hardware differences. Your new computer could have noice sources in it that your old one didn't. Could be a noisy power supply, fans, bad grounding on the motherboard etc. This could be hard to debug but I would start by trying a different interface if you can, maybe USB or something other then Firewire. From there it might be disabling fans or trying a different computer power supply. A driver could help if it changes clock rates or does a different HW setup but who knows.
