To create and remove a symbolic link named MyFolder from the root directory to the \Users\User1\Documents directory, and a hard link named Myfile.file to the example.file file located within the directory, type: mklink /d \MyFolder \Users\User1\Documents mklink /h \MyFile.file \User1\Documents\example.file rd \MyFolder del \MyFile.file

What do you mean? Sorry. Should have thought about that a bit.

The Track Control Manager is here

Always try and get DP working in standalone mode before attempting to load it into Cakewalk. You might also need to run the installer "as Administrator" I believe the latest version was 1.5.5.16

Is your main recording drive an SSD?

I have a few monster projects. Four or five full orchestra mockups with 135 tracks each, a couple of album projects which run to nearly 2 hours. Admittedly, plugin counts on these is pretty low, but saving is nearly instantaneous. I have many other projects of 60/70 tracks with multiple busses & plugins and save times are similar. Like @Glenn Stanton said above - where are the files stored on your system(s)

If saving is as slow as you say, using either method, then this indicates to me there is something fundamentally wrong with your system.

Another thing to try - delete the contents of your picture cache. Let the program re-compute the waveforms next time the project is loaded. Obviously only delete the cache when Sonar is not running.

That's only partially true. CbB did receive a maintenance update quite recently. There simply will no longer be any new feature updates.

Not seeing it here either. All knobs behave smoothly

Try bouncing the clip to itself

I hate telling a seasoned user like yourself this, but until you read the manual you will struggle. I neglected to do this and struggled for weeks until I downloaded the manual and it's pretty easy once you understand the workflow.

FWIW, I tested it running Sonar 2024.08 Build 019 on a Win 11 laptop

Nope. The Browser stays exactly where it was.

Yes the Browser doesn't appear to expose itself to Workspaces. If you switch Screensets, say from 1 to 2, hitting the relevant number on your qwerty keyboard will load up the saved version. Apart from that there's not a lot I can suggest

1 - Make sure Workspaces is set to None, or save the current one when you're happy with it 2 - Make sure the current Screenset isn't locked.

Have you tried doing a real time audible export?

Do you mean there's a glitch in the export or in the project after exporting?

I've got it installed on 2 machines with no warning telling me I couldn't do this

I avoided using Melodyne for years until I finally bit the bullet and managed to incrementally upgrade to the flagship version. Can't see me ever going back to V-Vocal now, though when it worked it was a brilliant bit of kit.

You're coming across like an entitled misogynist. What the hell is your problem?

What an odd post.
