New FREE version/tier of the venerable Cakewalk Sonar
Jeremy Oakes replied to Larry Shelby's topic in Deals
Whatever rocks your boat. I sometimes use the File/Save function (and sometimes Ctl+S) but every 10 mn autosave kicks in. When recording or playing back it doesn't. So its not as intrusive as some imagine it is. BUT in the Control Bar one of my buttons is programmed Save - very easy to hit it every important step. Hiting save has never let me down (more than a year on Sonar, plus going back to Pro9. I will save as if its necessary, but as Sonar is non destructive, you can always recall a file from a previous take. Of course YMMV J -
New FREE version/tier of the venerable Cakewalk Sonar
Jeremy Oakes replied to Larry Shelby's topic in Deals
What utter rubbish. I’ve used it for a year, with zero issues. Doesn’t sound like you have …… And I think its fair to say : user error, not app error. Who in his right mind works on a project without saving it regularly ? I do the same sort of thing with our group, the first thing i do after importing each single file is SAVE. You may not be aware, but Sonar is non destructive, so there is a good chance the audio files are somewhere on the HDD. BTW, If you don’t like Sonar, why are you here ? Curious mind. -
Cannot refresh activation or update - error 1401

Which version ? IIRC it was updated since to stop this issue J -
CWBL won't launch, gets stuck on driver
Jeremy Oakes replied to OPunWide's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
To try and answer your questions : To back up files all you need to do is copy Projects folders somewhere. A separate drive. Have you downloaded and installed Cakewalk Product Centre and tried re-installing CbB from there ? If you haven’t yourself physically uninstalled CbB it will still be there. Have you tried installing Sonar - it will port your CbB settings over and will recognise your plugs. ? what « system prep » did you do ? Has it affected your set up in some way ? Are your audio drivers up to date ? You may be over thinking somewhat - i suggest you just download and install Sonar using the CPC, fire it up and see what happens. Your files are still there on your HDD. J -

Jeremy Oakes replied to OPunWide's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
f I'm not mistaken its HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Asio that you need to clean up. J -
Until there's a separate discussion for Product Center

Glad it worked for you. ! -

And also anything to do with Magix, Fruity Loops, Steinberg, Low Latency ……. J -
The Staff moduel hasn't been touched for ages AFAIA, and itdoesn't seem to really be a priority. J
-
Just tried them - they open up fine here. FYI i have Installed : Platinum Prod., X1 Prod. And CbB but only use Sonar. Good luck mate ! J

A possible fix was posted (about un-linking your Bandlab and Google accounts) on your other post. Did you try it ? Did you flush your browser’s cache ? J -
In your Bandlab account settings just make sure that Bandlab is not linked to Google, FB etc. That should do the trick. J

You might want to check out the first post here about the new update to v084 which takes care of your issue. :

Resolution: Startup crashes with latest Sonar release
Jeremy Oakes replied to Noel Borthwick's topic in Cakewalk Sonar
As a software developer you certainly know that the most BSOD’s are driver based. You don’t say which audio device you’re running - are its drivers up to date ? Asio4All isn’t the best of asio solutions albeit does work for certain on board cards. Personally i would uninstall it and any generic Asio drivers that other DAW’s may have installed. And this also in the registry. The last time i had a BSOD was a dodgy/corrupt Focusrite driver (it said so on the dreaded screen) i simply re-installed my drivers and all was good. I’ll think you’ll find the greater majority of users are experiencing little or no issues. However, YMMV Try it J -
You could also use the + button in the synth rack to add Kontakt 7 either with 1 stereo out or multiple. Thats the way i add a soft synth. YMMV of course. To add a simple audio or midi track simply right click on an empty part of TV and select in the drop down menu. J

You’re complaining about a minor issue for a free DAW ??? J

Don’t like doing research ? https://www.image-line.com/fl-studio/compare-editions J

No its not. There is no mention of a free version on the link you post. J Edit : this is the link https://beta.prismsound.com/news/sadie6-now-free-for-all/ And it the Recapcha doesn't like Firefow.....

Pour répondre a tes questions : Sonar utilise un autre système que les bitmaps (appelé vectors) donc tu ne peux pas importer tes themes de CbB vers Sonar. Sonar n’est qu’une extension de CbB mais avec un code amélioré, ou est le problème ? Je ne comprends pas pourquoi tu penses que tes fichiers vont être perdus ? Les miens marchent en CbB ET Sonar, autrement dit Sonar est retro compatible. les SI marchent impec dans Sonar, j’utilise les SI Strings tres souvent. Tes connaissances en informatique je ne ferai pas de commentaires mais ………… Linux n’est pas Windows/Sonar. Sonar avec son code plus moderne c’est l’avenir, CbB (ancien code) c’est le passé, il faut avancer. Une fois tu as gouté Sonar (free tier ou surtout avec sub) tu ne reviendras jamais. Bon courage YMMV (ton avis peut être different) J And in English (no AI nor translator were harmed in my translation) ! To answer your questions : Sonar uses a different system than bitmaps (called vectors) so you can’t import your themes from CbB to Sonar. Sonar is an extension of CbB but with better code - where is the issue ? I don’t understand why you think your files are lost ? Mine work in CbB and Sonar, which is retro compatible. The SI’s work perfectly in Sonar, i use SI Strings regularly. Your knowledge in computer science is not for me to criticise but …….. Linux is not Windows/Sonar. Sonar, with its newer code is the future, CbB (older code) is the past. Once you’ve tried Sonar (free tier or above all with a sub) you’ll not want to go back. Good luck YMMV J

I don’t need lecturing, thanks anyway. But you’ve missed the point completely. J

@John VereWhoa, slowly there. I’m not fond of the sub myself, just fed up of reading repetitive posts about it……. Which let’s be honest, re-hash the same arguments. i’m sure the devs are well aware of some users issues, but its marketing who rule the roost, unfortunately. As in most companies nowadays. FYI, i don’t use Bandlab nor Next so you could say i’m not getting my money’s worth from the sub. My choice. Anyway, make music, no ? J
