Thanks for all the help.

I see that now, very good. I already used the other workaround and it let me finish my track, but I'll go back in and try this to make sure it functions the way I need it to. Thanks.

That works, thanks, wouldn't have thought of that. So, just to be clear, you CAN'T add a new track to an existing SD3 folder?

If I've already created a Session Drummer 3 folder and initially chosen and used 8 tracks but I've subsequently decided to add some percussion on the pads and want to add more tracks so I can control them individually, how would I do that? Does the entire pad only work on one midi channel? I had one pad assigned (to separate my sidestick from my snare) but I want to add timbales. I've tried duplicating the previous track but it only works if I match the midi channel and then I can't pan separately.

Ah, don't know how I missed that, and that was the problem, the MIDI Out on the Komplete Kontrol plugin... I've engage this plugin before I don't remember that being an issue I had to deal with, but there it is. I'll try to keep that in my think box. Working again, thanks everyone for the time.

I did solve the problem for the moment. I used a different bass plugin and dragged the bass part into that and I don't get the same issue, so it seems it's something to do with Komplete Kontrol.

I'm afraid MIDI is my Kryptonite, I just create the soft synth track and use it as it is. So there's nothing I would've changed, advertantly anyway... all the inputs on my MIDI tracks are generally Omni, or All Externals - Omni. And, I don't find any MIDI options like that in any drop down menus.

Ok, not solved, the MIDI-OX showed midi data being sent with no apparent anomalies, and deselecting the pitch wheel didn't affect the issue. But I did realize I have already posted about this issue, I just didn't realize it, because of the different instruments. I recorded a bass part using SI-Bass with Komplete Kontrol where I did use pitch bend (I guess the next step is to delete that and use something else). When I tried to record a drum track different "notes" on the drum plugin are triggered every time there is modulation in the bass line. I didn't recognize the similarity of the issue because, obviously, they just trigger, they don't bend. But when I expand the tracks, I see that modulation inexplicably recorded in those string parts are identical to the pitch bend in the bass part. So, once I recorded the bass part in that format, everything midi I record subsequently is copying the pitch information from that track. Does that make sense?

I'll try that. Thanks.

I'm going to ask this, then I'm going to go drinking. Why is Cakewalk recording pitch wheel bends into a part when I'm not touching the pitch wheel? Any ideas will be appreciated, I'll check when I'm sober again. The top two are Violin parts (BBC Symph), I see the modulation, but I didn't notice it at first because I don't hear it. The bottom track is a bass, as you can see the modulation is identical in each track, but in the bass part I hear the modulation, I haven't touched the wheel for any of this. I tried a different plugin all together, but I get the exact same modulation, so I assume it isn't the plugin, but either Cakewalk, or the midi control keyboard maybe.

No, per CbB support I'm using WASAPI (shared) because I would have audio through my Behringer UMC404HD, but I was losing sound from all other audio, such as from within browsers or just playing audio files with VLC for instance. I'll watch the video and see if it helps. All your vids have been very helpful so far.

I'll try to figure that out.

I had a HHD crash recently and have had to reload everything, I don't know if that plays into this. Since then everything I record, audio or midi, I need to nudge it back by 2 (nudge left) to make it line up, vocals, synth, everything. I don't detect any latency while recording, just in playback. I've check all my settings but I'm sure I'm missing something. Any thoughts? Windows 10, updated CbB, Behringer U-Phoria UMC404HD with latest drivers

Actually, I don't use onboard audio, I'm running through a Behringer UMC404HD interface. So what I'm getting then is, somehow my sample rate was at 48 when I recorded these tracks, so that upper number "48" will always show that, because it's reading at what bit depth they were recorded. No matter what I set in my prefs? Great video, btw, thanks.

So in my project where does the "48" (in the top image) come from and how do I change it back to 44.1 like the rest of my projects?

There may be something I don't understand about these settings. I generally stay at 44100/24, as far as I know. I have a project I'm having some minor but annoying issues with a plugin (Kontakt) breaking up and even crashing. It mixes down okay, but sure is hard to mix. In the project, on the menu ribbon under "audio configuration" it says I'm at 48/16. If I click on it, it opens the preferences to the driver settings which shows I have 44100/24 selected (per attachments). Per Bandlab tech support I'm running WASAPI (shared) instead of ASIO because I was having an issue of DAW audio and computer source audio crashing my audio engine. I can't find a way to change the sample rate/buffer settings for this project to match the settings in my preferences. Any thoughts?

Thanx guys, at least this allows me to move forward.

Okay, so that worked, thanx, I consider that a work around. Any idea why it was happening in the first place? I've used pitch bend many times before and it always renders correctly with the regular export function.

I've never even opened the "advanced" options for exporting, but I'm usually wave, 24bit, 44100, the Bounce buffer size is on Playback size, whatever that means. I looked and the Real-time isn't check, so I'll try that...

I have a weird issue where in one part of a song the pitch bend is correct in playback but after I print the song it doesn't reproduce the bend correctly, it hold the beginning of the note too long before engaging the bend. I will play the part over if necessary but I like the performance and it sounds good in Cakewalk. Any thoughts?

My system is 44100, and I keep my DAW at 44100 as a rule since I'm not working in video at all. But I'll certainly keep an eye for that.

A VST would've never occurred to me. But if you notice in my original question, I get these audio pops just booting up Cakewalk and opening a project, before I'm even in a project... but I'll certainly give that a try.

I'm suddenly having issues with loud pops on booting the program, when a file loads, once it pops I get no sound at all, I have to reboot. Sometimes that works, sometimes not. If I turn the Audio Engine off and on I a loud pop also and it doesn't bring the sound back. I've check connections and they all seem fine, nothing else has changed since the issue started. I'm running on WASAPI Shared per the advice of tech support, but it doesn't matter if I switch to ASIO it still happens. I'm Windows 10, latest version, updated Cakewalk.

Maybe it's my mild OCD, but I have issues with doing that. Plus, I don't know if it's true or not for sure, but sometimes it seems like certain efx, like reverbs or delays, get cut off early if there isn't enough space after the final note. So, I'm in the habit of controlling how much of that extension is left. Maybe that's erroneous. But I would still like to know what causes it so I can avoid it.

Another update: I saved the song under a revision name, then copied the drum part. I deleted the entire drum track - and that solved the problem. I created a new drum track and reload the kit, pasted the original drum pattern back into it and now I'm back up and running. That's a work around, but it doesn't solve the problems, and it would sure be nice to know what I did wrong to create the problem so as to avoid doing it again. Any more input would be great. Thanks
