This is true preference settings along with directory junctions can relocate quite a bit of the application and data. I got the impression from the OP that they were trying to keep Platinum and CbB entirely separate. This goes well beyond preference settings. Even if one were able to have completely separate installations, the way SONAR and CbB use the registry mean some items will be shared regardless of where and how many copies are installed. Moreover, there are fixes to the shared items in CbB that benefit Platinum and older versions of SONAR as well.

There is a 50MB per-user quota on image uploads. The forum resizes uploaded images to save space. Users should not upload full screen images. They are almost unreadable after being resized. Smaller images containing the necessary details would be better. Better still, to avoid the quota and image resizing entirely embed links to images. For this, I created an account http://imgur.com Linked images are displayed full size like this

It is included in CbB. See the bottom of the this page for the included PC modules. One thing about the PC76 U-Type Channel Compressor and PC4K SType Bus Compressor is they are some of the first modules released. As a result, they support an old PC design that has designed slots for each PC module type. IOW, when one of these compressors in the the ProChannel the other may not be added. In fact, it will not appear in the Add PC menu. It does show up in the Replace PC module though. Both should be listed in the Add PC module menu if neither is already in the ProChannel.

Noel is using Melodyne Studio. It is very likely Editor does not have all the options available in the multi-track version. I bought Studio when Melodyne 4 was released so I have no idea what the menus look like in Editor.

CbB installs like an upgrade to Platinum (because it is an upgrade). The program, content and user directories are specific to CbB just like Platinum. For example, after installing c:\Program Files\Cakewalk will have both Platinum and Cakewalk Core folders. CbB updates the vst scanner, plug-in manager, PC modules and other files in the shared folders. All Cakewalk DAWs use the same shared folders.

If the options are disabled, it means there are existing registry entries possibly from a previous SONAR installation. All Cakewalk DAWs use the same shared folders and Cakewalk Content folder.

Sometimes Cakewalk gets beat detection wrong. As you have already found out, it is easy to fix in the Loop Construction View or the Groove Clip section in the Clip Inspector..

This forum is new. The old forum contains a lot of valuable info.

See if Zero Controllers When Play Stops is enabled. If not, enable it. This might help with stuck notes. This is per-project setting so make sure the project template has the option enabled and any new projects will have the setting.

TTS-1 is a pretty old synth. The 64bit version has a few issues, the code was machine generated by Roland. For me, it is most useful for playing existing MIDI files. As long as there is no MIDI device selected in preferences, opening a MIDI files causes Cakewalk to automatically add and setup TTS-1 to play the file.

The partial personalization is harmless. It does not overwrite anything just restores missing files. The full personalization (CTRL key while opening CbB), on the other hand, overwrites files in user directory and restores some registry entries.

This is not safe mode, this is a partial personalization. What this will do is restore any files that are missing from the user directory. Safe mode is invoked when holding down the SHIFT key while opening a project.

Have you tried different synths?

Not sure what the object of the exercise is but it seems like something that may be easier to do using a modular synth - maybe something like VeeSeeVST There is a more recent version linked near the bottom of the kvr thread or get it directly from the github page.

Could be too small a Prepare Using nnn Millisecond Buffer setting. The default is 250 try 500 or 750,

if there is a lens in use try setting the lens drop down to none

REmatrix Solo is a PC module so it should be in the PC module menu.

If the clips have rounded edges like the clips in SI-Drums, click-drag the edge of the clip to roll out copies of the loop. To make loops out of regular MIDI clips, select the clip and type CTRL+L Here is more info on groove clips.

The behavior may be specific to Cakewalk but that is no guarantee it is a Cakewalk bug.

For future reference, the links I provide may be changed to German by changing the language in the URL from 3 to 1 like this http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Views.43.html http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=1&help=Views.43.html

I have no experience with the PG-8X. If you did not get the plug-in from the developer's site, may want to verify you have the current release. Could let the developer know about the issue too.

May be plug-in related. Try opening the project in safe mode (hold the SHIFT key while opening the project). Safe mode has the ability to skip loading plug-ins. Might take a few tries to figure out which plug-ins if any are the problem.

Yeah, when using the same audio device for Windows and CbB it is a good idea to set both Windows and CbB to the same sample rate.

That and disabling "Always Echo Current MIDI Track" in preferences are good ideas. The combination has caused unexpected playback for some users.

Regular audio files do not contain BPM information so this does not matter. Part of the process for creating a groove clip requires the DAW to read the wav and assign a beat count to it. Adjusting the number of beats as described above does not change the loop?
