Thank you for reminding me there was a separate Cakewalk installer. That didn't work either though, but I found the bug. My Dell Dock!!! I disconnected it and Cakewalk loaded fine!

Thank you. I tried that. It then ran the same soundcard again and crash without letting me first change the settings in Cakewalk. So I deleted everything in that directory. That didn't work. Then I uninstalled cakewalk, but the Bandlab assist won't recognise that. It keeps saying update Cakewalk. I click on it and it says downloading and doesn't move from 0. What should I do now? I've also uninstalled and reinstalled the Bandlab Assistant and it keeps thinking Cakewalk is still installed, even though it's not in the list of programs anymore in the add/remove programs in Windows. Thanks again.

Please can someone tell me how to delete the startup settings file that says what soundcard settings to use? If I can delete it, I believe Cakewalk will load fine, and I really don't want to have to totally uninstall and reinstall. I switched the soundcard driver settings and now it crashes every time. I just need to delete the file with those settings, and it will load up perfectly. Thank you ahead of time!!!

I have an SSD with 16 GBs of RAM, but I did have another program running in the background.

Cakewalk never did this before. E.g. I could load a single track project with just guitar. Click play and silence for about 5 seconds then it starts working, other times it works straight away. Has anyone experienced this? Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this. I couldn't find a specific bug reporting section.

I know it's an old synth now, but I never got to buy it back in the day. I'd love to get it some day.

Thanks for trying. As someone who's used Cakewalk for decades, what you mentioned has happened to me quite a lot over the years. Nothing like hunting for forgotten directories :p

I managed to work out the problem just now and it happened to be what you guessed. They were loading the VST 2 version, but I only installed VST 3 on my new system.

Hi, I've installed Cakewalk on a new system and tried to load a project with a synth and even though it's installed, and I can load the synth in a new project, if I try and load an old project with the very same synth Cakewalk acts like it's not installed. And yes, it's something I purchased. Could you please give me some tech advice for what files to modify to make Cakewalk recognise the Virtual Instrument? Thanks Edit: even stranger, some projects will load the synth and other projects fail. Only on my new install, all of them still load on my old one.

Is it possible to do the same, but with pitch? So you can sing above and below your range for harmonies, like in this video? Jamie Lidell's Secret Vocal Harmony Trick

Thanks heaps!

Is there a way so that when you type a different tempo, that the audio will automatically stretch (real-time rendering)? I know how to use CTRL + SHIFT and drag all the tracks, but I want to be able to choose precise tempos and have the tracks stretch to make that new tempo. Is there a way so this can be automatic in Cakewalk? Thanks!

I would love it if when you hovered the mouse over a plugin that a mix knob appeared so you could change the ratio from 100% wet to whatever % you'd like the plugin to affect the signal.

Thanks, that was an interesting read, but by the end of the tread, it seemed there was still no answer?
