Says refreshed then immediately reports an error with activation and does not activate.

Tried contact supports goes round in circles, also offline activation got a granted .dat file but does not process.

Been working fine until today, is there an issue with the Cakewalk activation server?

Not Activated

Cakewalk experienced a problem with activation.

Please contact support. (20)

RESOLUTION/Workaround

Renaming to Cakewalk1.exe and creating a shortcut to desktop then running that seems to work.

Do not see any security issues with the virus protection stopping Cakewalk.exe running, my firewall is off, the Domain firewall was on tried switching that off and running original Cakewalk.exe same issue with activation. Also same with Public Network firewall, so only solution for moment is running it via the renamed .exe Also added a rule to allow app through firewall specifying Cakewalk.exe - same result again activation issue.

Since the windows 10 update to 21H1 I can no longer select Asio as a choice my presonus  24c outputs are listed but not selectable, the onboard realtak device is though. However as soon as ASIO is selected Cakewalk goes in to an unresponsive loop.

Presonus are having a look but they cannot see anything wrong with the installation of the 24c from the system log.

I installed using admin so the install is fine, select WASAPI as my driver of choice is absolutely fine, the Aud.ini has both the real tek and the presonus listed as Asio with the same parameters defined, but only the realtek can be selected, and of course the unresponsive looping makes Asio unusable, seems to be an issue when cakewalk is iterating  over the device and is only activating the first as selectable.

Any help with the cakewalk side of things appreciated, Presosnus are already checking this so not an audio interface issue so far.

Silly me the master bus was mono

Experiencing some odd behaviour, while working with a project every things is all ok then for no reason I can fathom the panning on all channels stops working everything becomes centered mono. This is true for instrument tracks and recorded audio.

Is this a known bug?, I have already rebuilt one project that this happened to, but now it has happened again. it is as though the signal path has become corrupted and everything becomes centered with no panning at all.

Anyone got a clue? My projects are not easy to setup again and there is now no workflow just frustration.

The above post shows it was in fact changed

Nice to know how to achieve it but could not find info in the help

I don't seem to be able to select all volume faders by holding  down ctrl and clicking on a fader which would highlight all of them to allow you to move all faders up or down anymore,

has the way to do this changed or is it broken?
