Will.

I've just found an improvement myside. Although I was well within a reasonable quick loading speed process, im loading double the speed on project load without being connected to the internet. I was connected up until 10mins ago of creating this topic So to everyone with the slow project load claim issue, try disabling from your wifi and check your DAW startup load and project load. My startup is almost instant and project load takes about 4seconds from the previous 9seconds project load before.

True. If you dont do music for movies, 44100/24 has enough dynamics (headroom) record and mix in to eliminate any aliasing. I only use 48/24 if i have to create something for a commercial, or if i do a track for some end credits rolls on an episode or for a movie. Otherwise i record my artist and my own music in 44100/24. Never had an issue. Theres plenty of software out there that will demonstrate this to you if you do some tests with it.

You are missing the point with that article.

@John Vere this article might shine extra light. https://www.soundonsound.com/sound-advice/q-do-really-need-24-bit-recording#:~:text=The bottom line is%2C if,stressful and mixing rather easier.

Why would you want to record at the bit rate and deph with built in analog to digital (AD) Converters lowering the noise floor for you? If you can record in 441/ 24 or 441/32 with the exact same recording as 48/24 why would you want to waste precious system resources? Keep in mind, recoring at 48/24 does not give you better quality then 441/24. What bring you the quality is your preamps of your interface. Higher bit only creates higher headroom. The only reason and times "pro4fessional" studios use 48/24 is when they record an orchestra. I've got first hand experience with this and it is only because at 48/24 there is a higher headroom and lower noise floor within the digital universe - not because its better quality. Theres only a handful of studios that uses actual true analog gear today. So far, every high end and big name studio I have been to uses AD converters. With my last work abroad, I asked the artist why are you renting a studio? He said: they've got "better equipment." We got to this studio and I immediately laughed in side. After we were done, I showed him the AD converters and the biggest USB hub I have ever seen. Most gear had a Midi to Usb converter or cable. Guess what happens in that setup - lower floor noise because of the analog to digital converters. If you dont do music for movies that uses surround sound files, then recording at 48/24 seems a little unnecessary for everyday use.

Exactly 441/24 you will find most "professionals" use. I have first hand experience seeing this almost every second month and when I travel. When you ask why, the simply respond, its unnecessary. If 441/24/32 removes the noise floor in the digital universe, why should they record at 48/24? That the geniune answer you get. Spotify, Deeza, Itunes these platform dont care about noise floor, but only the K-system.

You'd be shocked at how in correct this is. Its what they want you to think.

Theres no such thing. Recording at higher bits dont give you better "Quality" Recording at higher bits only lower the floor noise within the digital universe of audio recording. The recorded file still stays the same. "Quality" is where the pre-amps of your interface comes in. I digress though. Lets keep this topic open to feedback only. You guys can create a fresh thread for this topic to continue.

Tested this now, Ctrl alone pretty much do the same thing I probably have it as a shortcut which i changed long time ago.

You only hold down Ctrl+Mouse Drag to copy the data. There has never been Ctrl+Shift+Mouse Drag shortcut in windows.

With Cakewalk always before. Two other DAWS I use, it really doesnt matter when.

Update again until it says something like "You're up to date, or You are on the lastest version" somewhere along those lines, I cant remember what it exactly says now. Theres a 2023.09.065 version also, before you get the lastest version.

Have you checked the Mod wheel on your keyboard?

🤣 I've got something very interesting to say about the phrase "Dry Run" 🤣 But i wont. This is a family forum.

You have to register for a discord account before you can login.

So what you are saying is upper management and staff are lying?

Yes we do! All you need to do is just read the forum. You will get all the inside priviledge you need. 😌

Theres plenty of new features and add-ons thats going to come with Cakewalk Sonar. The price will also be affortbale to everyone. All this was announced almost two months ago in the previous feedback release. Go look it up. This forum topic is for feedback to the current release only which is also getting another update soon to this version. So please put this to rest and keep this forum topic open and stictly to only feedback. 👍🏽

[RESPECTFULLY] It was said and explained many times over and over again. All your old projects will open in the new Cakewalk Sonar. It was the first thing that came from the announcement and if you love Cakewalk that much, invest in the new product. Nothing is changing, besides new features being added and getting a new facelift. It will still be the same DAW with the same workflow with just a new theme basically to say the least. So can we put this topic to rest now - its getting old.

If your interface comes with midi inputs, than yes. If you have a USB E-Keyboard, than yes.

Seems like you are having some other issues here causing you to work this way. Shifting tracks offbeat to fix latency - thats not right.

Drag it up to the top or use the shortcut keys SHIFT+D

CbB might get a last update to this release. It is in the 2023.09 release topic.

😂 I dont see why there should be a reason thoigh. Its just in the way. What sparked this request - on Monday when I was doing 40sec clip/song for a tv ad, I played around with the Pro Channel after many moons. Even when its off, if you move it above other effects on the channel it affects the sound/tone/character or colors the tracks. Which is strange. I havent used any of the pro channel effects in like 3 years. The module is removed from my default empty template. So this surprised me a bit. This is why I love my finish touches to my studio. It is little to dead at times, but it just bring my monitors to life, but sounds overly clinical too. This is perfect for pop and rock, but with my main genres of Hiphop and EDM, Its sometimes bad. 🤣 I just love this room now.

Right click and remove Pro EQ would still be a better option which I prefer instead of altering ini.files. or what ever text files that needs altering. Thats asking for trouble in the long run. They can leave it for CbB but a remove option is best. Altering files is the reason why so many users have issues. They see something on the forum and do it, then when an update is available they think Cakewalk is broken, but forget that they had alter a TXT or Ini file that got overwritten with the update. So now new users comes on the forum and see theres problems with Cakewalk and stays away from the DAW. So its best for Sonar to avoid these issues with its new Sonar release and just bake it into the DAW - period.
