Unfortunately I have no idea what you are referring to or even how to proceed with it.

I got it working. With both my Presonus and Behringer interfaces I've been using a short 3 foot USB extension cable to plug into in order to reach the back of my PC. Apparently the Focusrite does not like that. The USB cable with the Focusrite is very short and apparently needs to be plugged in directly without a USB extension cable. So, that issue is solved. Regarding the main issue of this post I've just resigned my self to nudging the vocal track to the right 5 increments in order to line it up. Will see what happens with my next project. Thanks for all the help everyone. It certainly is a mystery.

New Issue:!! I just received my new Focusrite Scarlett 212 3rd Gen. Hooked it up to my PC to see if perhaps the issue I'm having above might be taken care of. Funny thing... I can't even get any sound out of the Focusrite! What should I be selecting in Drive Mode for this thing? I've tried ASIO, WDM/KS, WASAPI Exclusive and Shared and MME. I get no audio out of my headphones attached to the new unit. Windows recognizes the new unit just fine. This is getting maddening!

Ok, I just tried it again with the same mic and no effects. Same thing happens. When I am recording everything sounds just fine. Upon playback the vocal track is ahead of the instrument tracks. I need to nudge the focal track to the right 5 increments to sync up. Weird!

Not USB, XLR going through same interface.

Yes, I am recording the vocal track with effects turned on for the track. This has never caused an issue prior and I am using the same effects I always use on my vocals. I will try it with the effects turned off.

Everything is the same except I am using a different mic for the vocal track. Perhaps I should try my other mic that I typically use for vocals. However, I have used this particular mic to record my wife's vocals with no issue before.

I am not looping a section or punching in. I have no idea what ARM changes are.

The strange thing here in my mind is that, this tune I am working on is the only one that exhibits this behavior! None of my other projects that I've laid down vocals has this issue. And the other really strange thing to me is that it is ONLY the vocal track that is doing this. I started this tune with a MIDI drum track, MIDI strings and MIDI guitar. I then added audio tracks for bass, strummed guitar, picked guitar and harmonica. No problem until I added a vocal track. This is what is so puzzling to me as it is only happening on this project and none of the others...

Ok, thanks for the clarification. What buffer size should I try? With regards to the Driver Mode, if I change it to anything other than ASIO my Presonus Audiobox USB96 interface does not get recognized and instead Cakewalk reverts to my internal sound card.

I am not clear exactly what you are suggesting I try. Could you kindly be more specific? Thanks

The instruments are a combination of MIDI and real instruments. So it's a combo of MIDI and wave files. The MIDI instruments are all TTS-1. There's no issue with the instrument tracks being out of sync. I have not changed or updated audio drivers.

This is really weird and the first time I've experienced this. I am trying to lay down the vocal track to a new song. I've already recorded the instruments. But when I record the vocal track and play it back it comes in ahead of the instrument tracks. In order to fix it I have to NUDGE the vocal track to the right by 5. As mentioned, this has never happened before with vocals I've laid down. Any ideas?

Prefect! That fixed it. Thank you!!!

That's great! However, how do I fix this? by the way... this is happening on all 3 of my computers since the update.

I discovered yesterday that with the most recent Cakewalk update that when clicking on the Pro-Channel folder icon in Console view the ProChannel Presets folder no longer opens which it used to, but rather the Cakewalk Core folder opens instead. Cakewalk Version 2021.01 (Build 098, 64bit) Windows 10 Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.804) Example: Click on ProChannel presets folder icon in Console View: Opens the Cakewalk Core folder: Instead of opening the ProChannel Presets folder which is what it used to do prior to the latest update:

When I launched BandLab Cakewalk today I got this message for the first time ever. I went to HELP and REFRESH ACTIVATION and after entering the correct credentials I get the following: 1. Why am I getting the first activation message. Never received that before. 2. What's with the Sign-In Error?

Sure... read that already. The issue I stated is that the marker does indeed move however, it stops at the right side of the window even though the track plays through to the end.

I clicked something I wasn't supposed to and hopefully am explaining this well. But now when I click PLAY the track/transport/cursor/market or whatever it is called moves along the track but stops at the end of the window. The track keeps playing but there is no longer any movement. How do I fix this?

ah.... got it! That works. Thanks.

Obviously game is not done or I would be hearing the instrument.

There is no MIDI driver for the Roland RD1000.

I have my Roland RD1000 88 key digital MIDI piano connected to my Digital Audio Interface with MIDI cables (MIDI Out of keyboard to MIDI In of interface, MIDI In of keyboard to MIDI Out of interface). I insert a new MIDI track in Cakewalk and when I hit RECORD and play the Roland I can see that MIDI data is being captured and recorded by Cakewalk. I want the captured MIDI data to trigger the SI-Piano instrument VST I have loaded in Cakewalk but I get not sound. I am assuming that I need to route the captured MIDI track to another track with the SI-Piano which I've tried to do several times and still no sound. How do I get the MIDI data transmitted from my Roland RD1000 to trigger the SI-Piano VST and record it in Cakewalk? This is driving me nuts! Thanks

What does a disk buffer problem mean and how does one fix this? And, why would this all be happening suddenly?
