Okay I can duplicate your problem now. Audio or Midi tracks work properly. Instrument tracks however (as your video shows) don't. For me it is only after opening the Console View.
I see you beat me to it

I see you are assigning the mutes to an already existing group. What happens if you assign them to a New Group?
It's working correctly for me but I used a New Group.

Here is another way using remote control, MIDI tracks and a virtual MIDI cable to control automation.
This is similar to how I've been doing it. One of you guys much smarter than me suggested this method on the old forum (probably you or Anderton). Except that I use the Control Group function and only set up the remote control on one of the grouped tracks. The midi track behaves like an automated VCA but the offsets available in Control Groups still work.

For now create a group for the Write Automation buttons to match the fader group
This does work. The problem is when you want to edit the envelope you have to edit them all.

More and more it seems the title of the OP is true for me! I don't like any software doing any automatic internet access without asking me.
How many times is Noel going to have to point out Offline Activation.

This forum is actually for the Window based DAW Cakewalk. But I will take a stab at answering your question as I have been experimenting with Bandlab myself.
Yes, multi-track recording is possible but you need an Android compatible interface. The phone/tablet itself is limiting you to only one input. Perhaps there are Android devices that allow using both inputs but none of mine do.

If you get angry with you "freedom of choices" and forced updates from Microsoft, you're guaranteed a miserable life of LIVIDITY moving on to Apple
After I upgraded to W10 I was one of those who battled against the update monster. It seemed I was spending as much time tweaking the system as I was making music.
About two years ago I surrendered. Now I only defer updates for a month and turn automatic update back on before that month is over so that the update happens when I want it to. Since then I have not had a Windows update break anything other than turning on power management for USB hubs.

Just installed it. Offset is working correctly. Current projects are working but they are relatively light FX wise. I will try a heavier project later tonight.
Thanks

Why do so many new software / hardware companies (like ROLI) refuse to acknowledge Cakewalk as a pro DAW?
Why care?
I'm not aware of anything that Roli makes that I consider "Professional". Cakewalk has been getting the job done for me since it came on floppy disks.
I'm not going to be negative about other DAWs (I have owned and worked with several others) because they are all AWESOME. When I first started recording, cut and paste was done with a razor blade and Scotch Tape. All of the DAWs available today can do things that were impossible to do even in a million dollar facility back in the day. I like them all but am partial to Cakewalk; not because it's free but because it is most comfortable for me.
I think the work that The Bakers have done with Cakewalk since it was acquired by Bandlab is remarkable. It gets better practically every day. So as long as the owner is happy and continues to distribute it I will keep using Cakewalk. And I will continue to not care how it is perceived by the "Professionals".

NO I won't be upgrading my '96 Les Paul even if the quality the same. And I'm not one of those who believes or finds value in collecting old warn out guitars and vintage electronics & tube amps.
Sorry folks, I don't want to start flame wars here, but there is nothing to discuss as far as software & musical gear & equipment is concerned, there is NOTHING better then NEW.
Sorry for the OT but a couple of months ago I bought a new Standard 60's LP ( built in Dec 2020). It is far and away the best guitar I've ever played. So I have to agree. New is better.

Recordings all lining up properly here. Thanks Noel. Fine Job as always.
This, however, I can partially confirm.

Anything in the project notes pane in a Cakewalk project will upload to the notes pane in Bandlab.
Bandlab project notes don't seem to be downloading to CbB anywhere. Not even the Lyrics View here.
Please don't lose any sleep over that.

I have been experimenting with this.

I was wrong. I got used to doing this my own way for years and maybe this has to do with the new Tempo Track but for me, Set Measure/Beat at Now is working as you expect it to.
2 hours ago, Hieu Nguyen said:recalculates the new tempo at the maker you're are inserting in order to keep the next marker unchanged.
I'm using version 2021.04 build 147.
I put exactly three minutes of pink noise in a track in an otherwise empty project. Then I set Measure 100 at the 3 minute mark. Then I randomly set measures in between 1 and 100 at different places. No matter how many changes I put in measure 100 remained at the 3 minute mark.

Unfortunately, when I insert a new time mark at the middle of the song, the mark on the right is shifted. I expect it to be unchanged at 3:30:000.
If I am reading your OP correctly you are using "Set Measure /Beat at Now" to make your tempo map. In Cakewalk you cannot use that tool to work backwards. Any tempo change you make in the middle of a project is going to move measure lines downstream.
"Set Measure Beat at Now" is very accurate if you patiently work from the start to the end. "Fit Improvisation" can be quicker but be sure to line your midi notes up accurately first. "Audio Snap" is too fiddly. Use that to line audio clips up with a grid; not to line the grid up to the audio.
-
Use "Set Measure/Beat at now" which is in the "Project" menu. If your music is syncopated at all, doing this manually is going to get better results.
Keep in mind that CbB doesn't have negative measures so if your downbeat is not at the very beginning of the project you should mark the first downbeat as measure 2 (or 3 or 4 ...).

I copied the following from the 2021.04 release notes. Maybe this could be the problem.
"Optimizations
High resolution plug-in automation improvements
Plug-in automation envelopes were previously being decimated at a uniform 50 msec interval. The automation rendering process has been redesigned to render at a much higher resolution of (default = 5 msec) and also make automation sample accurate (for VST3). For VST2 (or VST3 plug-ins that do not support sample accurate automation) the rendering will be buffer accurate. These improvements allows for much tighter sync when automating plug-in parameters synced to rhythm even at higher latencies. The higher resolution rendering also makes automating filter sweeps audibly smoother and without aliasing artifacts. The decimation interval can be changed via the audio configuration property AutomationDecimationMsec (2-30) in preferences."

I'm still seeing the issue that audio is laid down one buffer late when Punch In starts at time zero. Punch in a measure later, and it's good. I have not yet tested to see what happens close to - but not at - time zero
Yep. Same here.
If punch is set one sample past zero it lines up perfectly. But Punch from zero is late.
FWIW this would never affect me. I always start recording at measure two or later.
.... Is this a bad place to whine about not having negative measures? ...

It is a fatal problem that the previous project is loaded and not accurately reproduced to its old condition.
Go to Preferences-File- Initialization File. In the "Option" box add the following line.
TempoImportErrorThreshold
In the 'Value" box enter the number 0.
Hit Set - OK.
That will load old projects without changing the Tempo Map.
You should also look at the TempoMapDecimationResolution. This defaults to 1/16th note.
This is all discussed in the 2021.04 Feedback Thread.
As for tempo mapping fermatas .. Do it however sounds right to you.

The Tempo Map Decimation Resolution.
I can't decide whether to put that on the band name list or in the project startup affirmations list.

Working correctly here. I tried every combination I could think of.
Amazing work Noel. Thank you.

Regarding the (experimental) Win10DPIAwareness setting. The only problem I have seen so far is in the PC Concrete Limiter. The numerical db display at the top of the meters is screwed up. Everything else I've tried looks good.

I was also thinking it’s hard to have an accurate reading because now a human is involved 😬
I have a saved project named "Manual Offset Test" (of all things). It has one track with a recorded click that is routed out through the board and into another track with record enabled. So all I have to do is load the project and hit the record button.
After I have everything lined up I delete the clips from the second track and save the project so it is ready for the next time.

Impressed hardly covers it. I am amazed. I would believe Jesse that Noel is an AI-Hybrid but a machine would not care that much.

Only tested Punch so far, all 4 punches are aligned to one another.
However all are 181 samples Early! This is with a 64 sample buffer.
If you use loop is it still off?

For me, compensation is now correct without punch enabled, but audio is still late by the ASIO buffer size when punch is enabled.
EDIT: When loop-recording with punch enabled, compensation of all takes is correct, and loop recording alone is also good. Only punch alone still has an issue.
Same here. I still have not calculated the offset on punch alone but it looks like it could be about 1 buffer.
Route MIDI to multiple synths

I'm with you on this. A midi track can input from all ports but it can only output to one. Why???
Even if the solution is a native midi loop, I would be happy enough. I use LoopBe for something in nearly every project. It seems like something that should be a part of any DAW.
