Nice to know! Particularly interested in the VX-64 Vocal Strip. 

I've never installed Sonar, and they're there for me, so PopStarWannabe isn't right.

Mix recall seems to be what your looking for, based on what you've told us. You just have to save a new "Scene" for any changes you want to recall. 

Are they different? This could be what's going wrong...

Its not necessary. If you don't want effects to be saved and loaded in a mix recall preset just deselect FX in the Mix recall settings.  When you do this it will skip attempting to restore effects. Its completely configurable.

Ah - now here's the thing I guess that might be unique to my workflow. Much of my A/B testing isn't levels - it's different FX settings, amp simulations, routing, etc. Might be a bit much for mix recall. That's OK - I've lived without it this far, just thought it would be nice. 

Thanks for the videos - it seems my problem was I wasn't waiting for the whole project to reload. Is that how it's meant to work? I didn't think reloading all the VST instruments, etc was necessary - but that's what it does.

Yes, you can have multiple projects open simultaneously. Use the Windows menu to switch between open projects.

The Clean Audio Folder function was recently updated and is now much more efficient. For details, go here.

Awesome, thanks. I'll have a good read and figure out where I was going wrong Cheers!

Hello. I'm relatively new to Cakewalk - giving it a go since I love the idea of having a built-in channel strip, and was pleasantly surprised to see what used to be Sonar is now free!

Anyway, the mix scenes concept intrigued me - in Reaper I've literally been saving different versions of the project and skipping back and forth between them in tabs.

But I can't get the mix scenes to work - nothing seems to happen when I switch between them. I was trying to play two different guitar mixes against each other without having to manually adjust it each time, but nothing happens when I switch between the scenes. Am I doing something wrong? Is this not what it's for?

Related: is it possible to have two projects open, whether in tabs like Reaper or some other way? And is the file/folder clean-up function as simple as Reaper, once you've decided on a mix? 

Thanks!
