Check to see if there any Punch Points enabled

I haven't set foot in the studio for a year.

I had started to suffer from lack of motivation and this happened to coincide with lots of other personal stuff going on and only now, am I beginning to miss it

But I know the first thing I've got to do (after making sure it all works) is to install all the software I need onto a separate Win 10 disc which has been ready to fo for ages

That won't take 5 minutes 😅 😅😅

Just listened to the entire album for the first time in about 25 years

Are you actually saving it as a template?

Have you set Workspaces to "None"?

Think I'm going to do this:

VST 2    32 Bit    C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\VST2
VST 2    64 Bit    C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST2
VST 3    32 Bit    C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\VST3
VST 3    64 Bit    C:\Program Files\VST3

That's if either of the 32 bit paths are needed - I'll find out when I install
 

From what I can gather, I need to install from 8.0, X2 & Platinum

Yes Steve, I saw Noel's warning recently about not scanning VST2 plugins so that's something to avoid

Did everything ship as 64 bit, going back as far as, say, Pantheon?

I know all the later ones did.

Hi all

I have a dual boot Win7  / Win 10 system

Currently no software installed on the Win 10 partition but I'm about to take the plunge and install all my software & plugins going right back to Sonar 8 (selective install of various plugins)

So... what's the current thinking regarding installation paths?

I'm thinking I'll need separate paths for VST2 & VST3 but what about 32bit/64 bit?

Does CbB even recognise 32 bit?

Thanks

You can't mix & match using a pan envelope (or any other envelopes) and use the pan setting at the same time. Use one or the other.

You can only truly pan mono tracks - panning stereo tracks works much the same way as a balance control on your hi-fi

The only things I can think of to make a track volume unresponsive is if you have volume automation on the track, Offset Mode engaged or you're tweaking the Midi velocity, not volume

One final option, lasso the notes you want altered then right and select Insert Fx > Midi Fx > Velocity

This will open a dedicated plugin where you can do all sorts of things with velocities

No. The colour coding is only visible in the Plugins section of th Browser 

Not sure if this will help, but you do have the option of putting all of your Bux Fx into an Fx Chain in the bus Pro Channel.

Then just save the Pro Channel as a preset.

Very trippy. Looked at a picture on the wall afterwards and all the people were moving!

It's possible you have two notes of the same key overlapping where the end of one note runs into the beginning of another

See if there are any like that and shorten the end of the first note to create a small gap

It saves a lot of work, but I still prefer the look of the Drum Map

Yep, that's my understanding 

I've no idea why maps that at one time did load with the project are no longer there

I'l do some more digging tonight, see what I can come up with

Thanks for your input guys

Opened up an old project I've neglected for months. All plugins loaded correctly.

It contained, amongst other, a fully loaded instance of EWQL Play along with all the articulations for about 8 or 9 instruments

So far so good

Each EW instrument had 3 separate tracks in CbB - an audio track, Midi track, and all of the keyswitches for each instrument in it's own drum map track

Problem #1 - only about 3 of the ks tracks now contains a drum map

Problem #2 - none of my prebuilt drum maps area avialable in the drum map menu

Problem #3 - one of the maps which does load is triggering BFD3, not EWQL

Problem #4 related to #3 - right clicking any of the mapped notes and selecting Map Properties does nothing.  It *should* be sowing a small dialog box where you can edit individual notes, but not now. I'm certainly not new to editing drum maps and know my way around them quite comfortably, but this has got me stumped

Not sure how to resolve this without rebuilding the tracks from scratch. I do have a template that could be imported

Any feedback would be gratefully received.

Bruce, try selecting Main Outs in the export dialog box, not master mix or entire mix.

On the subject of graphics cards, as was noted above, anything half decent will be fine as Cakewalk isn't heavily dependent on it.

Just make sure you get a passively cooled one i.e. a heatsink - no fans! Eliminate as much noise as possible

Use control & shift while dragging the tracks to your new destination

Control is for copy, shift locks vertical position.

You can if you want omit the control and just move/drag the existing tracks

I find it's enough to select a clip - any clip - and slip edit the right hand edge of it to a point where all sounds have reached their final decay

Where are you setting it? It usually needs to be set in the synth you're driving

A friend of mine was diagnosed over 20 years ago

He's now a lot less mobile than he was but apart from that he's pretty good

One easy monitor test - power them down and listen through phones.

Hum still there?
