You can use the step sequencer or the Matrix view to get something similar to BandLab's drum machine view

New Update Legit? V.2019.3 - Build 15, 64bit?
Noel Borthwick replied to marc williams's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Fast bounce now has better multiprocessing and uses another core to do the disk reading. It has some moderate gains in speed depending on the project. On a disk bound project I got about a 30 second gain on something that would normally take about 2.5 minutes. It really depends on the project however. -
Looks like the help text is out of date. We'll update it. Thanks for the heads up...
-
The notification for updates in CbB are completely independent from BA. We report on updates to CbB itself not updates for BA.
-
Can you upload and share the project you are trying to bounce with me? You can send a shorter version as long as the problem is reproducible. Please PM the link to me.
-
I've determined why IK multimedia plugins are not compatible. They are not properly handling being bounced asynchronously. I'll implement a workaround. Anyone else seeing start screen issues? Not seeing any issues with start screen on Windows 10 here.
-
Thanks for your reply. I just downloaded the demo of MODO bass and I was able to reproduce this issue. I'll investigate it. Not seeing any issues with the start screen however. What version of Windows are you running?
-
@siordanescu and @Detwoen are you sure that the issue with modo bass is new to this release? What is the symptom of the problem? Regarding quadcurve EQ it always defaults to off. You have to turn it on for it to work in the ProChannel.

Open mix scene from a different session file?
Noel Borthwick replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Mix scenes do indeed store all the plugin settings (both effects bin and prochannel) for all tracks. So restoring a mix scene will restore the effects for that track. -

Yes that is the latest release that just got posted! Details will follow shortly. -
Open mix scene from a different session file?
Noel Borthwick replied to jono grant's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Mix scenes are per project since they contain data which is specific to tracks and buses in the project. However if you have a project that contains the SAME tracks from the original project that the scenes were created from, you should be able to import a scene from the old project. To do that, drag and drop the original mix scene file into the new project. If the tracks match it should import and apply. -
@Daniel Vrangsinn and @Bartosz Gajdarskican you please send me a link to a project including the audio folder that we can use to repro this? Zip the folder and upload it to something like Google drive or Dropbox. Also the dump file from the crash if possible. Most likely there is something corrupt in one of the clips but we should be able to handle the issue once we know what causing it.

We aren't supporting offline help presently. It was likely an oversight that that option was migrated.

Laptops are always tricky to configure and doing 32 tracks live requires stable performance. On a factory laptop like that I'm not sure there is much you can do to fine tune. Based on the specs it seems like recording 32 tracks of 24 bit audio shouldn't tax the CPU much at all. If its dropping out chances are high its something else besides CPU use leading to the dropout. Would be hard for me to say without running an instrumented build. The tracks Live app doesn't do much more than recording and is likely optimized for recording with the waves grid so it doesn't surprise me that its more fault tolerant with their system. Since networking drivers are at play as well there are more moving parts. Have you tried any other full blown DAW's on that system yet? I don't know much about WavesGrid. Is there any way to test recording the system without using it networked?
-
I assume that you have already tried playing with the playback and record buffer sizes in Audio - Sync and Caching? Googling that laptop shows some people had thermal issues with it. Is it possible you are overheating that that it is going into some sort of thermal throttling?
-
What audio driver mode are you using? If you are recording 36 tracks of audio you will want to ensure that your drive performance is good since you may be dropping out due to disk issues.
-
That's good. If you see a difference and your are comparing the exact same settings on both let us know and we can investigate further. Make sure you are matching with the same driver and engine settings.
-
CbB has ton's of optimizations compared to X3 so you should see overall performance gains. BTW if comparing X3 you can't just go by the CPU meter in SONAR since there were changes made (fixes) in subsequent versions to the meters themselves...

Thanks the more information you provide the better

Problem Cakewalk and Roland OctaCapture
Noel Borthwick replied to Alcar28's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
I wonder if your focal 50 being plugged into your PC is causing a problem because that is presenting itself as an audio interface as well. Take that out if the equation and retest with asio mode and only the octacapture assigned as Input and output in cbb audio settings -
Your right it's seems to imply either or. The intent was to show the prochannel as a pluggable component before or after the effects bin in the circuit. Perhaps we can show it as a labelled component work dotted lines. @Morten Saether may have some suggestions.

This the link to the most current Signal Flowchart for CbB.

Right this is the essence. You can make a customized version of the program that shows exactly (well close to) the functionality you need for a specific workflow. While screensets are useful of course they are simply positioning or opening views. They do nothing with the control bar, track view and other functions of the app. With a lens you can change which fields are visible in the track view. For example when tracking you rarely need all the controls in the track view or all the editing features and busy control bar. This is specially relevant if you are using a laptop with limited real estate when tracking live. Here are two screenshots that illustrate how easy it is to set up a minimal view that is task focused. You cannot do this with screensets. Of course you can do this by manually changing things but its simplest to make a lens for this and switch to it. There is nothing more of a workflow killer than seeing a cluttered screen layout. This is why apps on mobile devices have become popular. They do task oriented things. Lenses are a mechanism to achieve the same thing.
-
Hopefully the next update should fix that case then without you needing to turn off notifications..

@Ronald Bakker thanks for clarifying. Are you using a control surface as well - if so which one?
