  1. Just think how fixing that one feature could blow the door open to so many users. Reading notation is becoming a lost talent in itself. 

    I totally understand the task in fixing it! Your response does give me a glimmer of hope and for that I thank you 😊 

  2. Their explanation was that the code was embedded so deep that they would virtually have to rewrite Cakewalk, known as Sonar Platinum at the time, from scratch!

    I started a thread on the original Sonar forum that amazingly reached more than 35 pages of some positivity but mostly serious disagreement on how to get staff view fixed!! That was several years ago and we are still no better off.

    NOTION was being sold at the time and Presonus ended up incorporating it into Studio One! I felt that Sonar or Cake would have benefited greatly from doing that! I had Notion 3 at the time and I learned how to ReWire Sonar and Notion together! It was quite wonky sometimes but did work!

    Anyway, as someone who uses staff view quite a bit, I feel your pain. 

  3. Staff view is not by any means a full feature notation program. It is infamous for being kind of a bare bones feature as far back as the beginning of Twelve Tones!

    I have been a vocal supporter of Cakewalk for longer than I like to admit. Staff view has been the weak spot of this great DAW. It was explained to me by Cakewalk support many years ago that it was virtually impossible to fix staff view because the DAW had progressed far ahead of the code involved to update staff view!

    I still hope that someday someone will find a way to fix it!

  4. I have Soundpaint and it is nice but very CPU hungry it seems. I tried Decent when it first came out and it didn't check all the boxes of features I need to construct an instrument with key switches and multiple layer velocities from scratch. I'll take another look and maybe it has been developed enough. 

    As I said, right now, I'm more than happy with TW. I thank you for your advice and time.

  5. Downloaded, installed, and tested. Latency issues, sticking notes, uninstalled!!

    I was interested in this because I have been looking for an alternative besides TW16x for building my own sample libraries. 

    Sorry! I am very happy with TW16x and will stick with it for now.  I hope they continue work on Freetakt as it looks to be a winner.
