If i understand correctly, I should be able to install my midi keyboard under 'preferences. Cakewalk is not "seeing"   my keyboard.,

I am trying to re-sequence a midi piece........... Is there a quick way to eliminate events (such as Modulation or Expression events) short of deleting them one at a time?

Not being clear enough, sorry. I'm NOT talking about transposition. key signature only............... i looking at my score in staff view. I want to change key signature from Bb to D Major. I go to "project" and select "insert Key change" and select 2 sharps, and specify the bar I wish this key change to be in effect. In staff view i see the new key. After a few bars (sometimes as little as one) the original ( Bb) key signature appears. (2 flats signs cancelling the intended key  of   (D major) i can g to that bar and reinstate the desired key, of D Major but the software cancels that new key again after a few bars..............

there are only options to insert key signature or meter. to clarify:  I don't mean that the key reverts when I hit play. If the piece is in the key of F MAJOR and I wish to change the key signature at let's say to Bb MAJOR at bar100, the switch is made for ONE BAR....................Bar 101 shows the previous (F MAJOR) key.
If I then enter Bb at bar 101, bar 102 key signature shows F. etc etc

I want to change the key of a Piece I am working on. Transposition works fine, but when I enter a NEW key signature, the new only "holds" for a bar or so, and the original key signature comes back. Imagine having to enter the new key signature one bar at a time for an entire piece!

are the "inspector" and "Event Inspector the same thing?"   When I open the inspector I dont see where to enter a percentage value in order increase/decrease a group of notes. Im sorry i  just dont see it. also theonly way i see to "lasso" notes is by click/ dragging the bar just above the staff. am i way off base here?

With the Smart Tool, right-click and drag to lasso notes.

Enter 200% in the Event Inspector Duration entry to double note duration of selected notes.

thank you. I knew there had to be a way! 

is there a way to "lasso" a group of notes with my mouse and double note durations? i am thinking of staff view but other solutions would be fine.......thanks!!

My sample Libraries (both Kontakt  and third party) are not sounding. If go to a previous work, the samplers are sounding. This effect is only present for new works. I reinstalled Kontakt to no avail.

Reginald................,. ill get back to you in  ful

l detail later

when playing a audio file, the playback is "chopped."  The beginning or end of notes is cut short in an abrupt manner. I have tried several buffer settings, to no avail.

interesting. Just looking at the two screens i can see it is likely easier to visualize the piece........i guess the best is to use it for

 awhile.

what advantage or disadvantage is there in using Piano Roll View  as opposed to staff view?  I normally enter notes with my mouse........

FIXED!....................THANK YOU SO MUCH!~         dies your supervisor have an email addy? Id like to send kudos! thank all who answered. it was a great learning experience!! 

ok cleaned drivers from "software" menu.  All that's left is Komplete Audio 6 driver. Opened Cakewalk.............    OPENED "preferences."  Audio driver is set "WASAPI Shared."
Midi driver is "UWP"......................................no sound.

ok  maybe i should remove all and re install the komplete audio driver? 

Preferences > Audio > Playback and Recording...........that's what i am looking at   i see.at alst heres is the list shown as available

ASIO
WDM/KS
WASAPI Exclusive
WASAPI Shared
MME (32 bit)
 OK found the drivers in regedit it shows           ASIO4ALL v 2
                                                                                                      GENERIC LOW LATENCY DRIVER
                                                                                                       KOMPLETE AUDIO 6
                                                                                                       KOMPLETE AUDIO ASIO DRIVER
 

i installed the latest driver, It shows "driver mode" as UWP. still getting clicks and pops. I also installed cubase , and have heard that Steinberg install a driver of its own. That's about the time i started having driver issues. ok found registry edit "drivers" get the message
"Drivers cannot be opened"
"an error is preventing this key from opening"

Sorry. I am using Komplete audio six as my interface. Bandlab Cakewalk as my DAW with MME audio driver. getting some pops and clicks in 

the audio

what audio driver should i use.?  The WDM/KS is distorted. The ASIO driver does not work. .....................UPDATE.........  I'm using WSAPI/SHARED driver, and all seems well...............

How do i utilize East West Libraries in Bandlab/Cakewalk? 

My staff view scrolls in a snapping manner. I am used to it scrolling smoothly. Where is the magic button?
