Is there a way to install the Early Access version .11 along side the existing version .09? I want to be able to use the current version while testing on .11 as well as double checking any bugs found exclusively in .11. Thanks in advance. Kind regards, tecknot

Hi reza, Try installing SONAR components by using the Command Central installer. Kind regards, tecknot

Max, There is a way to combine an existing project with a Project Template file. With your older project open, navigate to the Media Browser and then to your template folder (usually found in C:\Cakewalk Content\Cakewalk Core\Project Templates, if not in your Project folder). Now click, drag and drop your project template into the Clips Pane in the Track View. The two projects will automatically merge into your existing project (not a new project). Hope that helps. Kind regards, tecknot

I recently purchased a Lenovo P72 which has an i7-8750H, three drive bays (two M.2 PCIe and one SATA) and only 16GB of memory. It also has four USB type A ports with two Thunderbolt ports which is just enough for my peripherals (including my sound cards). I bought it just a couple of months before the next version was released (the P73) so I got it for $1,630.00 (with just one drive, an M.2), but would have costs me $1330 if I didn't splurge for the 4K monitor/screen. That 4K was not really necessary and certainly not needed for a DAW, so I made a mistake there. It is a 17" and a perfect fit for my setup. This laptop is not bulky like a gamer laptop too. The current versions (P53 15" and P73 17") have 9th gen CPUs, better graphic cards, but only three USB type A ports (with two TB ports). The base prices are $1620 and $1770 respectively. Kind regards, tecknot

Have you tried the Loop Construction View?

Hi All, There is a visual metronome in CbB. Just open the Big Time View (ALT+shift+3). Is that what you are asking for, or does this not work for you? Kind regards, tecknot

Hi vertibration, Not sure what you mean by "slice audio to the sequencer," but you can certainly slice audio in CbB. I'm not familiar Geist 2. Perhaps your question is better given to Fxpansion users. Kind regards, tecknot

Awesome release! Congratulation Cakewalk Team.

It's certainly a bug. If you were to create a new theme from either Mercury or Tungsen you would see that there is no Mute button in that spot. Checking against not just the size but the original item that should fit in that spot is a totally different set of button states (and nothing like the Mute button). It's a strange anomaly but probably happened with an update to the Theme Editor (just a guess). Kind regards, tecknot

Seems that whomever handles the Theme Editor at BandLab has changed the item size so there is no way to import the correct item in that slot. This is definitely an error and should be brought to the Bakers' attention. I can't remember who created the Theme Editor, but I hope he drops in once in a while. Kind regards, tecknot

Not that I ever noticed the stars before, I'm not sure how they work. Would anyone see the stars without viewing the thread? When I wrote the OP I was thinking more of the way the Q&A thread works where a vote sends the thread to the top section of the subject list. That way it is much more visible (to the Bakers in particular) and you can see its popularity by the number of votes. Kind regards, tecknot

I don't see how freezing a bus would be possible since it doesn't hold any audio data. Audio just passes through it so there is nothing (physical) to freeze. But I certainly understand the desire to freeze the processed audio. That's when Mark's alternative would come into play. I would use it for submixes. Kind regards, tecknot

The easiest way to capture (record) the metronome is to insert a Patch Point in the Metronome Bus. After that you just need to insert a new audio track and set its input as the Patch Point. Kind regards, tecknot

Keith, you question seems misdirect in this forum. Perhaps you can get a better response by posting in the Q&A forum under the "Cakewalk by Bandlab" forum: https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/12-qa/ Kind regards, tecknot

Are you suggesting an FAQ or FAQs to be added to the FAQ threads section? I could see FAQs added to the main forum would clutter it up pretty quickly. Kind regards, tecknot P.S. Maybe we should have a venting section in the forums too.
