No, it's not that. I want to include a click track along with my tracks that I am sending to my partner to lay down his parts.

Hopefully this is not to stupid of a question. I setup a click track at 88 BPM for a tune I was working on and configured Bandlab to record the click track for 175 measures. I saved the click track as a wave file thinking / hoping I can reuse it in other tunes I am working on without having to completely setup it all up from scratch again and change the tempo after it is loaded. when I start a new project and load the click track wave file it loads in at 120 BPM however it still plays at 88 BPM which surprised me as I was expecting it to play at 120 BPM. Is it not possible to create and record a click track that I can reuse and change the tempo as needed?

Thanks Colin and Kurre.

I have numerous plugins that are listed under UNCATAGORIZED. How do I edit the category for these? Thanks!

I have a jazz MIDI piece I composed many years ago on my Yamaha SY77 with 16 MIDI tracks each a different instrument. I've imported the file into Cakewalk and Cakewalk plays each individual instrument with the TT-S plug in. I want to change some of the instruments from TT-S to a different instrument plug in. For example, I want to change the Muted Trumpet on one of the tracks to a better sounding non TT-S instrument plug in . However, when I select the particular trumpet track and select REPLACE SYNTH, select the new instrument plug in, it changes ALL of the tracks to that plug in. How do I fix this? Thanks!

What do you mean by don't use 88.2 clock?

I am suddenly getting getting the following popup error when trying to use TTS-1

Got it! Thanks

Ok thanks. I applied the FREEZE button to each MIDI track and now see AUDIO. Is there a way when recording a virtual instrument MIDI track that 2 tracks get created at the same time? One of just the MIDI events and the other of the instrument audio?

Ok, I read and re-read the section in the Guide regarding Splitting Instrument Tracks. Greek to me!!! When I split the MIDI track, it creates another track right below it which is blank. I was expecting the audio from the MIDI track instrument to be there? How do I get the audio from the MIDI instrument tracks to show on a separate track? Thanks

Correct. However, the audio track is not separated from the MIDI track. How do I move the audio track to a separate track from the MIDI track?

Where is the SNAP to Grid option? I don't see it anywhere! Thanks Tim

How do you accomplish this? Thanks!

Hopefully I am asking this question so it's not confusing. I have a MIDI file of a jazz piece I composed many years ago on one of my Kawai hardware sequencer. I've imported the .mid file into Cakewalk to work on. I've assigned all the midi tracks to Cakewalk TTS-1 for instruments and everything plays just fine. My question however is, how do I add affects to the individual instrument tracks? I want to add some Reverb to the drums and horn section tracks however, there is no option to allow me to do this. Do I need to separate out the audio to individual tracks from the MIDI in order to do this? And if so, how? Thanks

What problem are you referring to? The original MIDI sequence I am referring to is an original composition that I created many many years ago all created on the SY77. I managed as posted in another thread go get the MIDI sequence from the SY77 into Cakewalk. MIDI sequences on the SY77 are not stored as a .mid file so I needed to play the sequence from the SY77 into my Kawai Q80ex, save as a .mid file and open in Cakewalk in order to separate all the tracks. I was able to create a complete audio track of all the combined individual tracks but wanted to create separate audio tracks for each of the 16 different MIDI tracks. I accomplished this by playing the MIDI sequence from Cakewalk back into the SY77 soloing each individual MIDI track and recording just that track. Mission accomplished. So, again what problem? This had nothing to do with .vst's. This had to do with getting the actual MIDI instruments from the SY77 into a recording. And yes... I am using soft synths and other plug in instruments for all my other projects in Cakewalk. I just needed to get the actual instruments from my composition on the SY77 into a recording with separate audio tracks for each instrument of the particular sequence/composition. This is not something that is an ongoing process. I appreciate the help however, you guys are thinking WAY to much into all of this. Anyway..again as stated. Mission accomplished.

Correct. I already have a stereo mix of all 16 channels. The want here is to have a separate audio track for each one of the 16 MIDI channels. And yes, do it one at a time does indeed work which is what I am in the process of doing. Thanks!

That would certainly be handy however, that does not solve my current issue and is not in the plans.

I could sure use some help here. I have a 16 MIDI channel sequence loaded up in Cakewalk. The MIDI out of my Digital Audio Interface is plugged into the MIDI in of my Yamaha SY77 which has all the instruments for each individual MIDI channel. The sequence already has the patch/program changes within the sequence for each MIDI channel. The SY77 has a left and right stereo output which I have coming back into my DAI into Cakewalk. I would like to play the MIDI sequence from Cakewalk into the SY77 and record each separate individual instrument from each separate MIDI channel to individual audio tracks. How would I go about accomplishing this? Thanks!

I was not able to get it to work with the SY77 connected up to Cakewalk. However, I connected the SY77 to my Kawai Q80ex sequencer and was able to get it to work. So issue is now solved and I now have the files in .MID format.

NO

I have my SY77 plugged into Cakewalk through my UMC404HD audio interface and Cakewalk does see the SY77. I can see the meters moving when I start the sequencer on the SY77.

I didn't press the start button. I pressed the RECORD button to the right with the red dot and got the message you indicate. I just tried again pressing the start button instead of the record button and get the same message however Cakewalk does not record.

I must be missing something here. I have Cakewalk set as Preferences / Project-Clock / MIDI Sync. The SY77 is set to send the MIDI clock. I have Cakewalk setup as an EMPTY project with one MIDI track inserted. Cakewalk is armed to record and the record button is pressed however, when I start the SY77 Cakewalk hears the MIDI input but the transport does not start recording.

Also, according to this link, http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=4&help=Synchronizing.05.html in order to configure Cakewalk to be the SLAVE I must go to Preferences / Project-Clock. Where is Project-Clock? I don't see this anywhere? How do I configure BLCW as the SLAVE? UPDATE: Ok, I found Project=Clock after setting Preferences to ADVANCED and set it to MIDI sync however, nothing happens when I hit play on the SY77 sequencer.

Ok, so it sounds like Cakewalk needs to be the SLAVE and my SY77 the MASTER in this case. Cool. What about my other question?
