  1. If the dll is with other VSTs move it. If it is an a folder that doesn't have VSTs, remove that folder from your scan path.

    Don't forget, Cakewalk scans sub-folders, so watch out for that.

    CBS Products is cable installation.

  2. Hi everyone.

    Does anyone know what you call the guitar rhythm style used in Blowing in the Wind? Or the names of well known songs that use it.

    Dum-ti-ti-dum dum dum dum dum dum.

    Back in the day we played Where Have all the Flowers Gone that rhythm. The Kingston Trio almost do the dum-ti-ti-dum bit.

    Ricky Nelson uses it for I Need You.

    Need help to find a suitable RealTrack in Band in a Box. They don't have Blowing in the Wind as an example.

  3. I presume you have an audio track and you want to add reverb?

    If so:

    Click on the track number in the audio track. (It is in the top left corner of the track.)
    If you don't see this bit to the left of the track, press the i key

    Click on the button which is now orange in this screenshot. Looks like a knob. In the screenshot above it is just to the left of the button View.

    Just below that orange button, click on the + sign. To the right of Untitled.
    At the top of the list that appears, click on BREVERB 2.
    Scroll down.
    You see this.

    It is a reverb module.

  4. It is not supposed to affect the PRV.

    1) Set Zoom Factor: Horizontal to 1.500.
    2) Play with the zoom speed in the track pane.
    3) Change Zoom Factor: Horizontal to 0.200
    4) Zoom in and out in track pane. Compare it to the way it was in 2)
    5) Change Zoom Factor: Horizontal to 3.00.
    6) Zoom in and out in the track pane. Compare it to how it was in 2) and in 4)
    7) Zoom in and out in the PRV. Is it closest to 2), 4) or 6)?

    @Nigel Mackay @John Vere I played it through VLC and unfortunately it still didn't sound right. So I clicked on Open Volume Mixer to make sure it was the same as cakewalk, and it was. I then played it on Audacity and that also didn't sound right. So I must be exporting it incorrectly?

    Export a short bit of the project and post it here so we can check it.

    Select a few seconds on the timeline.

    Install Audacity and play the file there. If your export settings are correct it will be identical. If it doesn’t then you not exporting correctly and we’ll fix that for you 

    Other issues could be your not monitoring the same output buss your using for the export source. Example monitoring 3/4 output and export 1/2 

    When the OP imports the WAV file back into Cakewalk it sounds correct. So it has to be the playback system. Unless there is something really weird and wonderful going on.

    My needs are much simpler than mixing.  I am still trying to understand some of the more basic midi to audio, using EastWest and Kontakt.  Additionally, how to use the basic midi learn, articulation maps.  I feel that I can use GPO5, but having great distress w/Sinokinetic "Toccata" organ and EastWest strings.  I'm not, at this point, too concerned about mixing.  If this is not of interest to you, cam you point me in the right direction.

    MIDI Learn: Right-click the knob/control you want to change. Click on Learn MIDI CC# Automation. Move the knob on the controller that you want to use.
