How do you do that?

Could be we're having CbB vs. video card issues that crop up every now and then. Sonar was famous for this. Flickering screens are a good indicator for video problems. For now I just write VS off as a lame duck feature. To this day Sonar & CbB have little things going on like aim assist line that won't go away even after I close the program. It just hangs in space. I have no real need for VS and have only now tried to use it, so it's not a big deal for me. Still it should work as advertised and it doesn't.

No.

Well... what would say? Of course, he's just a horse. However, it's already a matter of request.

I have similar issue with VocalSync. It opens but doesn't do anything. Dead in the water! You might check that on your end too. VV works for me. HOWEVER... it opens in the Multidock with it's right half cut off. I have to drag it out of MD into it's own window before I can use it. Did/does the same thing in Sonar, too.

It seems to work in SPLAT (tho the editor disappears as soon as it opens), but not in CbB. I follow the online directions. I watch the videos. But all I get is a dead VS Editor that does nothing. After selecting a track and creating the region FX, the Editor dial opens but instead of the track name at the top, it says <Select Guide> and the dropdown is defunct. The clip turns gray and says "Vocalsync" in the name but it isn't split in half like the pictures show. If I click anywhere away from the editor, it disappears. The online doc says "Right-click the desired guide track and select Set as Default VocalSync Guide Track on the pop-up menu." but there is no such selection in the pop up menu. Is something wrong with CbB's VS here?

At least it works for you. Not here. Total lame duck. I can create a region from a clip and VS opens but it's dead. All the header says is <Select Guide> and there's no drop down list. I've read the online doc which is no help. I watched YT videos that don't explain what I'm doing wrong or why mine doesn't work. If I'm missing a step, there's no info on what that would be. I especially like the part that says "Right-click the desired guide track and select Set as Default VocalSync Guide Track on the pop-up menu." - There is no such selection in the pop up menu. In fact, the moment I click anywhere, the editor window disappears.

Interesting. I've opened old projects in newer versions but have never seen this.

"Is it possible to change the length (height) of the faders in the mixing console in Theme Editor?" If you mean how long they travel (stretching to fill the screen like Mixcraft and others do) then No, they are fixed size. Если вы имеете в виду, как долго они путешествуют (растягиваются, чтобы заполнить экран, как Mixcraft и другие), то Нет, они имеют фиксированный размер. Others are requesting it (see Feedback Loop) but it's not likely to happen any time soon, if ever. Другие просят об этом (см. Цикл обратной связи), но это вряд ли произойдет в ближайшее время, если вообще когда-нибудь. If you mean changing the size of the fader graphic then Yes, but not recommended because it will throw off the center point of the fader as it is also fixed. Если вы имеете в виду изменение размера графического фейдера, тогда Да, но не рекомендуется, потому что он сместит центральную точку фейдера, так как он также зафиксирован. Theme Editor is only good for repainting the graphic files to give the GUI a different look. It cannot be used to change how Cakewalk functions. Редактор тем хорош только для перерисовки графических файлов, чтобы придать графическому интерфейсу другой вид. Его нельзя использовать для изменения работы Cakewalk. -translation by google

That's optional in Preferences. No theme meister can thwart colored strips!!! Tho, it is possible to color fill some CV modules so the strip color won't shine thru. TIP: To color fill a module background so the strip colors will still shine thru, make it semi transparent.

Or maybe raise AimAssist above the ruler digits???

Found the culprit! I had installed LoopBe MIDI but never used it. However, Cakewalk decided to assign it as IN port for my interface/controller instead of the interface/controller. Deselected it in Preferences so hopefully that won't be happening again.

I wish it were that simple. I almost never use it or even near it to accidentally click it. Today the bug is back, so I'm removing the [FIXED] sign. And again I'm not editing projects but changing themes back and forth while working on a new theme.

Better yet, invoke drag and drop ability for importing new graphics.

Got it. Thx.

So many variables! I would think "Adjust for best performance of: Programs" would be the choice. Mine is set there and I've never had audio issues. Also in that window is the paging file size (virtual memory). Mine is set to auto manage but in the past (pre Win10) I've always set it to a permanent size as I didn't like Windows messing with it. Now I run 16 GB of ram and don't have any huge audio projects so for me probably not an issue. Core meter never hits over 25% and mostly stays just barely visible.

In Preferences > Colors, go to Rules then Time Ruler Tick Marks and Track View Time Ruler Digits. Most, if not all colors in Preferences are also in TE. Time Ruler background has to be changed with TE or a color set file saved from a pre X series version of Sonar where all colors were user changeable. OAN, that's quite the Performance screen. Either you're CPU is about to blow or it's showing a row of matches.

Title Tags are red but the above process doesn't let you insert tags in the title. Others have made their own but that didn't work for me.

No, I mean forum software spam filter that removes unwanted posts before we see them.

I would like to see the Import file size constraint either removed or replaced with a warning window that let's you decide if it's OK. When a user already has a set of files ready to go, the Import function is the quickest way to create a theme in TE. Simply right-click a file in TE, select Import, and pick the new file... as long as it's the same height & width. If it's not, TE won't let you import it. While you need to be aware of size constraints, in most cases you can change a graphic file's size by a few pixels either way without incident. You can get around this by opening a graphic from within TE, change it's size, save it, click OK in TE and it will accept the new size. Only then can you import another one of a different size.

Do we have Spam filter like old forum had?

Release notes said VST3 Text is now changeable in TE so how do I get the latest TE to do that? BA has it pre-checked & grayed out so I can't get it from there. Do I need to install one of the other add ons to get it? Current TE dated 4/26/18

And yet there is. So the question remains. This is the only track behaving this way, so it could be a corrupt MID track. Or maybe another incident of editing a project started in an earlier version of Sonar. Seems this always brings on weird behavior for me.

CbB 2019.01 Never seen this one before. 1. Project has 10 MIDI, 10 Synth, & 3 Audio tracks. 2. One MIDI track outputs to a Synth track with either Acoustica Instruments or CW TTS-1. 3. If I SOLO another track and hit PLAY, the above MIDI track will also play sound unless I MUTE it. 4. Muting the MIDI track's Synth track does not silence it. (How can a synth produce sound if it's MUTED?) 5. This MIDI track plays sound no-matter-what if output to Acoustica Instruments or CW TTS-1. 6. Does not happen if Synth is Dimension, SI, or others. 2nd CbB strange behavior in a month. 1st one was certain faders reverting to half volume when hitting STOP in 2018.09.

I updated to 2019.01 but the Add on TE selection is grayed out (tho checked). Do I have to install one of the other listed items (SI Suite, Drum Replacer, Melodyne) to get it? Currently TE only has VST2 Text.
