Hi Folks - this is very helpful and I'm making a decision on whether to get a Yamaha MX49 or Komplete a49. 

with Craig's suggestion above, does this mean that the transport controls on the a49 like record, quantize, loop, etc...will work with Cakewalk as well?

I currently have a iRig Keys Pro 37 but will be returning it due to lack of transport controls. Looking at Arturia 49 essential or Komplete a49. Do these work well with Cakewalk as a DAW controller - transport controls? (I used to sequence on a Motif ES before) Also does it make no sense if I want to use Native instruments soft synths and get the Arturia?

Hi Folks,

Sorry - another newbie question...searched for this and found some info at https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR X3&language=3&help=Looping.05.html but still not sure...

So I have several questions as follows:

•  When I tried creating a midi loop, there's extra blank space after the track and I  have to adjust manually to get the midi to loop. This was when using Groove Quantize
• What am I missing in the process to simply get the midi loop to start and stop in a 4 bar track and just keep looping this without any timing issues?
• How would I go about looping audio? Groove quantize? I might be missing something that relates to snap to grid or something...

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi There,

First-time poster and probably a basic question. Is it possible to take midi sequences that I did on my MOTIF ES and put them into Cakewalk? I no longer have the keyboard but have the sequences saved on a USB.

Any tips on how I can do this would be great to know...thanks!
