He probably didn't eat much.

I turned into a mouse.

I'm better now.

ARP 2600?

Jeez louise, what a question.
Blue Sky, Allman Brothers.

It won't be long before we have "Strutter" playing in a Dockers commercial.

Use the computer's sound card and WhatUHear or Stereo Mix.

Just downloading a MIDI file and opening it in Cakewalk by Bandlab (CbB) won't necessarily let you hear the MIDI file. You need to also load a synthesizer in CbB and set the MIDI file to play through that synth. There are several ways to do that.
Then the synth must be set to play through your <audio device> whatever that may be.
These are the most basic of questions regarding MIDI. Check out the Tutorials forum here for some excellent reading material from our fellow Cakewalkers about how to do it.
Welcome to the forum.

Are you using a MIDI keyboard and is its metronome (or drum track) turned on?

I saw this movie a few years ago, Whiplash. In it, music students fought for positions in this particular instructor's (J. K. Simmons) class.
But he was a tyrant, ruthless in his criticism of any mistakes or deviation from the charts. But it was jazz. His strict regimentation killed any feel and denied any improvisation.
A percussionist (Miles Teller) grew tired of this treatment and rebelled. 
It was a good flick and, in this case, music theory did kill creativity.
Simmons won an Oscar for his performance.

He flew the coop.

If they nuke England you'll be safe. Although I heard they recycle toilet water to drink.

In senior science in high school, we went on a field trip to the local (Fayetteville) water treatment facility.
Let's just say I have to be pretty darn thirsty to drink tap water.

A confession would be helpful. We just need someone to sing like a canary.

There must have been a few yardbirds hanging around.

Somebody to sing.

All they needed was a dead duck to complete the scene!

Now they need a stool pigeon.

Maybe change the interface to whatever the computer has with MME, WDM or WASAPI instead of the Focusrite and ASIO.

To answer your question, I've never had it happen to me, but I don't write such complicated pieces, rather, I write simple songs.
Even so, I always, always bounce down the song to another track in the project so I can compare and ensure it's how I want it. You discovered the error by listening to it, right?
I imagine it would make a person look bad if the work wasn't what the client asked for or is missing a detail that was required. Anyway, my comment above was about making sure it was ready before shipment.
Maybe report this to Cakewalk staff directly if you haven't already done so. Good luck!

That's going to be a real time waster for me. I use midi files all the time and having to insert TTS-1 and then send each channel individually to it is pretty hopeless. I know once it's saved as a Cakewalk file then it's fine but really this is a retrograde step.

It wasn't Cakewalk's idea; Roland asked (told?) them to stop including it.

If you can't delete it, Archive it and hide it in the track managers.

Although i dont see why i should have to confirm the integrity of the export.

Isn't that what not amateurs do?
Anyone who completely trusts their machines to be perfect all the time is asking for trouble.

Now that you have scanned, turn it off. There's no need to scan every time you open the program until you add something new.
