  1. You can move track content along with the arranger tracks: just enable the corresponding button:
  2. ... and remember that you can select all OR a some of your arranger sections to create markers, AND viceversa.
  3. An alternate way to organize (option 1) Keep everything as it is, as you can lose backwards compatibility with older projects if you delete those plugins, AND use the exclude option to get out of view your older plugins. You won't have to move plugins in C:/ or anything. --- An alternate way to organize (option 2) Organize your plugins in a meaningful way outside CW, in your hard disk - i.e I created a "Plugins" folder in C:/ to consolidate all plugins in one place (when possible) Rescan plugins in CW.
  4. ... because the original wave file was timestamped in Mac - usually files coming from Pro Tools default to this setting: it provides a SMPTE code embedded in the audio file, for syncing purposes. If Cakewalk has activated the "Always Import Broadcast Waves at Their Timestamps", then the clip will land in the stamped SMPTE. Deactivating it inseide Cakewalk is the easiest way to avoid your problem, as David pointed out.
  5. In Track View, press D (it will open the console view, and there you will find the master volume fader)
  6. You can do this outside event list: Select all your tracks in track view Use menu Edit/Select/By Filter ; check the appropriate boxes; Enter All your unwanted controllers/data will be erased
  7. In fact you CAN save the folder and the instrument tracks inside as a whole track template (sort of a super-track-template...!): Select all tracks in the folder. Right click on any track belonging to the folder. Select Save as Track Template. The saved track template will be comprised of the folder and all subfolders and tracks+buses belonging to this tracks, and all of it will be retrieved when importing this super track template into your project #2. Very cool! (...I have a super track template that comprises a full symphonic orchestra (folder-subfolders-track-buses .... all of it)
  8. BTW, it's easy to automatically create Arranger Sections from your markers, and vice versa. Right click the ruler and choose one or the another.
  9. Same here. I found awful the Discord page, cluttered and very confusing. Next was unusable in my system for the same reasons Keni explained. I decided to quit.
  10. I'm guessing you want to make the ruler start at a negative value, so that the 1 starts later, and you can have a visual aid of your measures in the ruler? If so, it's Interesting... I never thought of that. I'm not aware of a way to create an offset to the time ruler. But it's an interesting addition to CW. May be someone else have a solution. I know you can create a SMPTE offset so that your timecode display reflects it. But this is different that what you are asking.
  11. Right. For vocals, I totally switched to Melodyne. You can get rid of this little annoying things, plus you can adjust almost any aspect of your vocal performance. And it's relatively easy to use. Worth trying -
  12. Yes, it's confusing. The Channel Strip EQ seems to be a visual aid that indicates if there is a ProChannel EQ active, but in order to access the EQ you must activate Pro Channel. It would be more logical to be able to double click the EQ and this should activate and open the PC EQ . Agree -
  13. I Think it's solved, and as many pointed out, apparently it was system specific to my PC. It seems to be that an update of the graphic driver went wrong: windows update made a regression to their generic drive, and that one seems to be faulty. I was unable to reinstall the driver, windows won't let it happen, so I contacted AMD support and they suggested to make a clean install of their driver, using their own software. The driver was successfully installed then, and CW is no longer hanging when drawing tempo in the tempo view, at least by now. Hope it keeps stable. Thank you all for your help!!
  14. Shure, I will, thanks! Anyway, I think I got it solved. See post below.
  15. Yes, it seems that it's something in my system... not reproducible in other systems. Scan my RAM means...? (sorry, not familiar with that). I'm thinking about something wrong with my audio card. I'll try reinstalling the drivers and checking the physical connections. Thanks for your input -
  16. I'll double check, but I did some tests with just 1 midi track and 1 bus, no VST's, no plugins at all. Thanks!
  17. CW keeps hanging after drawing tempos with the line tool. Got another crash dump, if needed.
  18. Right, it's not easy to reproduce... Not sure how to reproduce it in a consistent way. I'll keep trying.
  19. I got the crash dump. Too big to send (3.5 Gb...!) Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1IbpCE2P7_-vbMoMSDg_isDqebCzRq9BP&usp=drive_fs
  20. Randomly before and after the cursor Both with and without Snap (with Snap it would be to Measure) Random, but usually within normal range (+/- 10 bmp) I thought so: I already tried it without any VST, just pure midi data on one midi track. Still hangs. No, CW just keeps playing (I hear the metronome), but is unresposive and has to be ended in task manager. I will - Note: noticed that when drawing with the line tool, CW jumps to the end of the drawn line. In freehand the now time goes randomly toward the center of the drawn lines.
  21. Update: it hangs with several tools (free hand - line - sine). Sometimes CW hangs immediately, others it takes a while.
  22. Hello, I didn't come across this possible bug on latest version before, so I post this one now, that is reproducible: CW hangs when drawing tempo in this scenario: Record midi data Open Tempo View Hit PLAY Draw tempo using the LINE Tool while CW is playing CW hangs - there is not a crash dump, even if I set ExceptionHandlingSeverity at 7 Thanks!
  23. I would add: If you opt to use an external editor, one way to go is: just add 5 secs of blank video before frame 1 - export the video (MP4- H264 codec works great inside CW even at high resolution) Import the video in CW Now you know that your video starts at precisely 00.00.05.00 SMPTE. You need to set up a tempo for your music. Doing this will change the measure-beat relation to the video, and probably won't match your compositional needs. If so: Insert your desired initial music tempo 1 or 2 measures before your video starts, and draw tempo changes in the tempo view before this initial tempo. This will change the position of your measures vs the video. (this takes time, but once you understand how it works, it's not that difficult) All of the above is really a tedious/long workflow for something that should be as easy as "drag your video to the point you want it in the timeline" Studio One already has this ability, so I guess it's something that can definitely be done. I would LOVE to see this basic feature in the new Sonar!!
