Since having to rebuild my computer and re-install Bandlab Cakewalk a number of the built in FXs no longer show a list of presets.  For example:

Sonitus Compressor only shows the following:

However, on my backup machine with Bandlab Cakewalk installed, Sonitus Compressor shows the following presets:

Another example is Sonitus EQ only shows the following presets.  However there is a whole list of presets in the same FX on my backup machine:

How do I fix this?

Thanks

I think I discovered the problem.  I believe it has something to do with the automation on one track.  When I remove the automation the issue goes away.

This is what Event Viewer shows:

Here is a .dmp file from the crash.  I don't know how to read it.  I did open it up in a debug viewer but don't know what I am looking at.  The 8th line down in the attached image is bolded.  I assume that is the issue?

If all your plugins are showing up, disable the automatic scan-on-startup. There's no need for it until you next install a new VST.

What's probably happening is that one of your plugins isn't initializing during the scan, and may be what's raising the access violation. There is a debugging feature in the scanner that can help you zero in on which plugin is having the problem.

Press "P" to open the Preferences window and scroll down to VST Settings. Under "Scan Options", select "Manual Scan" from the dropdown list. That'll prevent the automatic scan. Check the box labeled "Generate Scan Log". Click the "Reset" button, then click "Scan".

After the scan completes, the debug log will be in %appdata%\cakewalk\logs. You can open it in Notepad. Feel free to post its contents here if you can't make sense of it.

 

Ok, I followed your suggestion.  I've included the VstScan.log here.  There were a number of pop up windows about missing things when I ran RESET.  I wrote them all down and believe I fixed the issue.  However, after running a VST scan again and then opening my project it still crashes with the following.

I have a deadline that I need to finish this project today.  Any more help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

VstScan.log

Thanks both MBGantt and bitflipper.  I will try your suggestions.

Now Cakewalk is crashing with the following:

Since having to rebuild the OS and re-install all applications on my computer last week, Cakewalk is now taking up to 5 minutes and sometimes longer to open a project.  It also sits just as long showing the following:

VST Scan

Searching for plugins....

 Any ideas as to why it is so slow and how to speed it back up?

thanks

Maybe better edit with [soved].

huh?

Perfect!  Thanks so much.  I found what I was looking for.

A while back I asked a question about recommendations for  EQing a bass track.  Someone stated that I should start with the ProChannel.  Someone else chimed in with a link to ProChannel Presets that no longer come with Cakewalk which I downloaded and installed to Cakewalk.  I can no longer find that post with the link to the extra ProChannel presets.  Does anyone have these?

Thanks

Ok, nevermind..I fixed the issue by installing the Realtek High Definition Audio Device driver.

I'm not sure where you are getting this.  I explained clearly in my post that I am using a Digital Audio Interface.  I am using a Presonus Audiobox USB96 with all of my DAWs.   As also clearly stated, the issue I am experiencing and showed above just started happening after I needed to flatten and re-setup my computer due to a virus.  After, re-installing Bandlab Cakewalk after the OS rebuild, this message started popping up whenever I open and try to use Cakewalk even though Cakewalk is configured to use the Presonus Audiobox USB96....not the onboard High Definition Audio Device.

Is it possible to assign the tempo to a fader so that I can control a ritardando at the end of my tune?

Still not sure what you are referring to.  The issue is with the High Definition Audio Device which is my internal computer sound card.  Again, I did not have to do this before I had to re-install the OS and BLC.  So, other than the computer speakers plugged into the sound card there are no other cables.  Also don't know what port you would be referring to. So, I'm confused.

Not clear which cables you are referring to or what port as well?   However, I just confirmed that if I disable the High Definition Audio Device in Device Manager the issue goes away.  But what a drag to have to disable it each time I work on a project and then re-enable it after in order to hear my computer audio.  I never have had to do that before.

And the maddening thing besides it constantly popping  up every minute or 2 is that I can't do anything with Cakewalk controls until I click either YES or NO for it to go away.  

The default audio device is the sound card and has been the sound card all along.  I did not have this problem prior to having to flatten and re-install the OS and all applications due to a virus.  With that said, this same thing happens even if I specifically select my DAI instead.

If you are asking do I get audio from the internal sound card from other files the answer is yes.  Clicking on YES does nothing other than make the pop up window go away.  Clicking on NO has the same response.

No HDMI cable to the monitor.

Yes, I have an HDMI monitor.  Same monitor used prior to having to rebuilt my computer due to a virus.  All was working prior as stated.  Also, I don't use the HDMI of my monitor.

Hi tdehan,

Do you have an internal sound card active on your system such as a Realtek card?

Kind regards

tecknot

Yes, there is an internal sound card.  Same sound card that was/is installed prior to rebuilding my computer.  I use the sound card to view/listen to videos, my ripped music library etc.  I use my DAI only for Cakewalk.  As mentioned, this was all working just fine the same way prior to rebuilding my computer due to a virus.

I had to rebuild my computer this past week and now each time I launch Cakewalk and periodically while I'm working on a project I get the following pop up.

Nothing seems to be affected.  But I can't figure out what is causing this.
