Exactly what I do, except I simply click on the note instead of lassoing. Can't imagine that would cause it. I get a full length clip every time, and always have.

The flow chart shows clip FX will also pass through the track's FX bin, so all clips will flow thru the FX bin. There doesn't look like a way to isolate one clip from another within the same track. A hardware mixer's track's insert affects the whole track. Only in the virtual world can sections within a track be processed differently. In both cases, tho, the whole track's signal comes out of one port. If I understand correctly what you want to do, you'd need 2 separate outputs for the one track. Maybe move the clip to it's own track?!

FWIW, copying one note and pasting it down the line will create a 2nd full length clip extending out beyond the end of the song. Bouncing the track cleans it up, but why in the world does it do that...?!?

Lines.

To be fair it didn't, you did. The track you deleted. With it missing from the mix, MixRecall has nothing to recall. Rather than deleting a track, try selecting the tracks you want for each mix. Muting or archiving a track might also work. SOS has some good tips. "Mix Recall assumes that you’re done with the editing, and that you’re now dealing with levels, panning, effects and the like."

Can Mix Recall "undo" destructive editing? I wouldn't expect it to recall something that's been physically removed from the project.

I use a 29" widescreen 2560x1080 that looks great @ 100, 125, 150, & 175%.

You didn't specify which ones but you're absolutely right.

You can change envelope colors in Preferences > Customization > Colors > Automation.

I'm confused. That color code makes no sense to me, and why use it when #2 below uses the more familiar format (ie: "ff5894de")? My search results for "sectionTypes.json": 1. C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Arranger\sectionTypes.json 2. C:\Users\"me"\AppData\Roaming\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\userArrangerSectionTypes.json 3. C:\Users\"me"\AppData\Roaming\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Arranger\sectionTypes.json 1 & 3 are the same file stored in different places. What is 2 for?

I can't duplicate this. Maybe check another project.

Either way. You wouldn't do that when working between views, tho. If you want to tab between floating views and the main view, you cannot have Inspector or Browser floating. They stop the tab process once they're in focus. Inspector wins if they're both floating. If they're both docked, any other floating window can tab back and forth between the main view (Track View). However, the more views you have floating, the longer it can take as tabbing follows a specific order noted in my earlier post. FWIW Sonar X# has similar but slightly different behavior.

I edited to make it more clear. If it's not, just float as many windows as you can and start Ctrl+Tabbing.

This may also happen if AD2 is in a different folder on the new system. You can right-click the track & select Replace Synth. Unfortunately your settings may still be lost.

There are some oddities with floating window tabbing. With all of the following windows floating, focus each one & hit Ctrl+Tab: Inspector: Ctrl+Tab does nothing. Browser: Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Inspector then Ctrl+Tab does nothing. Synth Rack: Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Track View then Ctrl+Tab does nothing. PRV: Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Synth Rack then Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Track View then Ctrl+Tab does nothing. Console View: Ctrl+Tab moves focus to PRV then Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Synth Rack then Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Track View then Ctrl+Tab does nothing. Help: Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Console View then Ctrl+Tab moves focus to PRV then Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Synth Rack then Ctrl+Tab moves focus to Track View then Ctrl+Tab does nothing.

Not working here either. On a side note: Tried to search Keyboard Shortcuts for Ctrl and only one result shows up... when there should be 1/2 a hundred. On another side note: WHY is the Keyboard Shortcuts window delaying so long in Preferences? It also stops at the 1st letter when I try to type anything in the search box. Then Preferences disappears 1/2 a dozen times while trying to type any word there. To get Preferences to unhide I have to click on the main window. I have all of Cakewalk listed to not be scanned with WD. Something screwy going on with the Keyboard Shortcuts window!

You can... or go to the theme info page in Preferences and contact the creator... or go to the Themes Forum and search for the theme to see if it's been updated there.

Curious logo has GbG...

The short answer to the OQ is No. When inserting a new MIDI track, CbB will default output to the 1st or only device available. In your case BFD. If absolutely no devices or softsynths are present the default is "1-" and the Output dropdown only gives drum maps as an option. If you have a MIDI interface with multiple ports connected AND listed in Preferences, CbB will default to the 1st device. You can label one EMPTY or NONE and switch to it.

Using the "K" key to mute a clip will hide it when enabling "Hide Muted Clips". Clicking a Take Lane "Mute" button won't hide the clip.

Sometimes dots are preferred but now I know de limit of delimiters!

This also works for saving an existing project as a different one and want to keep all it's files & folders separate from the originals. I also like to Create one file per clip.

Update: Basic issue was solved, THANKS! But there's still an issue when a track name has a fractional number like 1.1 & 1.2. Apparently the naming process stops looking once a decimal is seen. At least now the Replace or Skip window includes Compare so both files can be saved (sequentially) - tho w/o the fractional #s. Example dragging track Piano 1.2 clip to the desktop after dragging track Piano 1.1: Clicking "Compare" results in Piano 1(1).mid & Piano 1(2).mid Then this window pops up: (which ties up the entire system until the file is saved). Clicking either button clears it. The clips can be named 1.1 & 1.2 in the Inspector, but naming tons of clips is tedious. Would be nice if MIDI clips could just be drag copied w/o incident.

To retain the project and it's audio files you have to save it to the hard drive. .BUN & .CWB files are basically the same thing, archives. Opening one reestablishes the project "temporarily" as a .wrk or .cwp file in Cakewalk and places the audio where you selected it to. Even though the unpacking process creates folders, the .cwp file won't exist on the hard drive until you save it. Closing the project w/o saving will remove the audio from the hard drive as there is no project file to associate it with.

I lost a lot of audio clips on a damaged HDD that the recovery service was unable to recover. They are good at what they do but there's no guarantee with data recovery. If you have this done I would keep the recovery HDD as a backup and upgrade the main drive to Solid State. Like John said, it has no moving parts to damage itself with. Even good HDDs and floppy disks can fail over time just from age.
