    Cakewalk / EZDrummer 2 issue

    in Cakewalk by BandLab

    Posted

    It seems to me that in the projects that do not behave as expected there must be another instrument that your midi is routed to and that is what you are hearing. Check that you do not have another virtual instrument or instance of one instantiated. 

    Are you using a drum map?  If you are open the drum map in the drum map manager and make sure that it is pointing to the correct VI

     

    Input Echo latency

    I personally, don't use the software to monitor. I use my mixer's effects and monitor direct with the HW.  If you are monitoring within the DAW (Sonar) and you are hearing comb filtering type sound you must be hearing a mix of what the DAW is sending and what is directly coming from the audio interface. 

    Make sure that if you are input echoing you disable monitoring from your HW interface

    Add this to future versions of Sonar.

    Doesn't freezing a track do exactly what you want? It renders the effects and edits into a wave file that can then be reversed by "unfreezing."

    I have not used a lot of wave editing software, mostly because my DAW(s) do what I need, but when I have used one it was very similar to Sonar's workflow.

     Now with this file, i've applied normalize, 10 db to all tracks but it still continue to go to "red" level, you can see it in that screenshot. What could be the problem?

    2 things I notice. First, you have a plugin, TH3, in the FX.  This takes the audio in the track and effects it. It can be doing anything it wants to the level.  Especially, if you are applying amp or distortion effects. You have to try to adjust the level of the effects output to match the level of the input if you want the loudness about the same.

    Second, you have the fader set to 2.8db and the master fader up as well. Reset both of those to 0.0db and and adjust the fx output to about the volume you want without going into the red.

    If your volume is too low turn up your speakers.

    Send a crash dump to Support@cakewalk.com. It is usually a plug-in misbehaving.  Try opening the project in safe mode (hold shift while clicking on the project file) and disabling all the plug-ins. 

    Word help needed!

    I have used REW (Room EQ Wizard) to measure my room and then I applied EQ using my mixer to flatten the response. Mind you that this only works for a small area where you measure the response. It can make other areas in your room worse.  I just tried to measure where my head would be when mixing,

    You also have to have a measurement microphone with a calibration file to have it be accurate.

    Could be many things.  Is this the same project that was working before but now has dropouts or a new project? Could be a Virtual instrument or plugin that you added. Could be your computer doing a virus scan or other operating system job that only runs occasionally.,

    Soft Synths Breaking Cakewalk

    I had a similar issue a while back when I would open Kontakt instruments GUI's. The UI would slow way down and the audio would start to stutter. After analyzing it with Resplendent LatencyMon I found it was my Nvidia video card and/or driver.  I use the built in Video or an AMD video card and things have worked better.

    I would suggest using LatencyMon to see if there are any issues it can find

    How export audio with tempo mapping changes

    in Cakewalk by BandLab

    My assumption from what you posted is that you want the audio to be time adjusted to be more consistent?  If so then the below are some ways to adjust the audio's tempo. If you just want to know the audios temp then the drag into the timeline should give you that information. However, it won't change the audio at all just make Cakewalk's tempo and metronome follow closer to the audio track.

    -------------------------

    Dragging the audio to the timeline creates a tempo map that matches the original dragged audio. If you want the audio to match a different temp you have to edit the audio to match the desired tempo.  

    You can edit with audio snap, http://legacy.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=AudioSnap.01.html

    You can have the audio automatically stretch to tempo by enabling groove clip looping for the audio clip. http://legacy.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Looping.09.html

    Or you can chop up the audio where it is needing timing changes and time stretch or move each audio event to match the desired temp. Then select all clips and bound to clip.
