Is Session Drummer included in the new free tier Sonar ?
PopStarWannabe replied to mark skinner's topic in Cakewalk Sonar
Not in the Free Tier. In the Premium though. Since today. -
After the today update (2025.07) Sonar found 4 new plug-ins after the startup scanning it did when I launched it. What were those 4? How can I find out?

Aftertouch using sliders or knobs? ( non-AT keyboard)
PopStarWannabe replied to Examigan's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Assigning CC 131 to any slider or knob on your keyboard sends out Channel Aftertouch. -
VST2 vs VST3 Performance Realization
PopStarWannabe replied to Keni's topic in Instruments & Effects
Sorry to interrupt here, but I have just recorded 2 Program Change messages from my MIDI Controller into a Cakewalk Instrument Track having the VST3 version of Reaktor 6.5.0 with the Kontour instrument on it. Afterwards I played back the track and it works: the patch changed 2 times. Important to mention that Kontour is a synth using only single cycle waves and NOT a sampler. For example the synth Rapture (which is VST 2) won't accept program changes because the loading of the samples will make that imposible to use during a song playback. -
I am recording guitar tracks using Cakewalk's audio monitoring (hence NOT my RME interface's direct monitoring). I have noticed that monitoring through Cakewalk is noticeably louder than through my interface: Source 1: Cakewalk's Input Echo is OFF, direct monitoring through the RME interface is ON: fader of the harware input is at zero (I don't mean the Input Gain) so signal goes to the harware output EXACTLY as it enters the interface plus a bit of Input Gain which I have raised a bit because of poor pickups. Source 2: Cakewalk's Input Echo is ON, RME direct monitoring is OFF: fader of the hardware input is at minus infinity. Input Gain kept at the same value. I mention that there is NOTHING on the ProChanel in Cakewalk (I removed everything except the EQ - which can't be removed - but this is turned off), there's nothing in the FX bin, track's Volume is at zero, track goes directly to a harware output - so no bus with effects. Like I said, monitoring through Cakewalk is louder. I checked this 20 times by ear. It's obvious, I don't need to measure. Why is this happening?

Why?

Bump. Please anyone care to explain why can't we have one single SSD. I've watched many videos of PC builders that build PC for making music and nowhere was an explanation. Most of them recommended 2 SSDs - one for system and programs, one for data - but no one explains why.

Why can't all be on a single SSD? I know that 15 years ago (when almost only HDDs and RAID were around) one had the "scattered" configurations: OS and programs on a drive, projects+audio on a second and samples on a third. But now, when reading and writing to an SSD is so fast and not "phisical" at all, what are the benefits of having 3 SSDs? Are there any speed benefits? Are the samples of virtual instruments not loaded into RAM anyway? If one permanently backed up projects on an external drive/in the cloud, would a single internal SSD not be enough? Think laptops for instance: they mostly have just one storage device. And you can back up externally/in the cloud.

Can you please state what plugin you are talking about? If you don't wanna state here publicly, please send me a PM -

Just a bit off topic, but does TS-64 (and all those old plugs) still work? I have a lot of the old plugs that came with Sonar. Can you please tell me what version the .dll file of your TS-64 is? Mine reads "File version 17.0.2.306" My last purchase was Sonar X2 Producer. I want to know if the plug has been updated after X2. -
I couldn't find a way to record the movements done with the MOUSE. For instance, when right-clicking the XY-Pad in Z3TA 2, the movement is random. How do I record that in Cakewalk? Does anyone know? I know about assigning separate CCs (MIDI Learn) to the X and Y directions, but I'm asking about the movements done with the mouse.
