  1. Hi Akira,

    Make sure that you do not have a lock on the clip.  If there is a lock on the clip you should see a lock icon in the upper left of the clip in the Track View.  There are two types of locks on clips, position and data.  It could be that a data lock is protecting the clip/data from your desired change(s).  To release a lock, right click on the clip and go to Clip Lock and uncheck Lock Data.

    Kind regards,

    CbB has matrix view which is non-linear. You can try that. I use Live for looping.

    Yeah, Tobias, try the Matrix View as rsinger suggested.  You can set it to playback each clip at different time intervals or immediately.  Sounds like it would do what you're looking for.

  3. Hi Hendirk,

    There is a setting under Preferences | Customization | Editing that's at the top "Copy Entire Clips as Linked Clips" which is, I believe, checked by default.  I set mine unchecked so that I don't get clips linked together.

    So, the SS clips can be repeated by stretching/rolling to the right and that's working for you now.  Hum, must be something that didn't allow it to work in the first place.

    Kind regards,

  4. Just to clarify something important, your interface is your "realtek high definition audio" sound card.  Make sure that your interface/sound card's sample rate and bit depth match that in Cakewalk's driver settings (Preferences | Driver Settings: Audio Driver Bit Depth (16 or 24, etc.) and Sample rate (e.g. 44.1k, 48k, etc.)), as well as the Playback Timing Master set to your Realtek sound card.

    You may have to change your Driver Mode (under Playback and Recording) after you figure out the above.  Check those settings and get back to us with your results.

    Kind regards,

  5. Someone mentioned "unfinished project," well it seems that can be said for just about anything in Cakewalk.  ACT is a big example.  I would like to see it fully developed, no, revamped so that it has greater more dependable control integration.  Matrix View needs attention, Staff View really needs a lot of work, etc.  I think BandLab should take a look at each feature/component and improve upon them one at a time.   And take a break from adding new features for a while, until the existing features have been improved.  I wouldn't mind that.  Make them robust and fully functional.  Not that Cakewalk is not workable, but it doesn't take much to reach its limitations in a number of cases.  It still feels a little fragile each time I work with it.  Like just one more move will irreversibly corrupt my project.  I could make a complete list things, but I would have to give it more thought.

    Kind regards,

  6. Thanks for the response, scook.   I am working with the Cakewalk packs 1 and 2 which are the separate installers first released.  Nonetheless, I forgot about the registry change I made so maybe that's where I need to revert back.  I also forgot about your suggestion to using directory junctions.  I can still make that change.

    Much appreciated,

  7. Hi all,

    I recently up graded my laptop with a second SSD.  I then moved samples over to the new drive.  Then I realized I did not have the Rapture expansion packs installed.  However, when attempting to install the xpacks I got an error message stating that Rapture was not installed and that I must have Rapture installed before I install the xpacks.  I tried inserting a new Multisamples folder (left empty) in the Rapture path, but that didn't work.  I also tried to install the packs as administrator, but that didn't do it either.  Does anyone know a fix for this situation?  I searched the net but didn't find any post like this.

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards,

  8. Hi Christopher,

    Go to Edit | Preferences and then scroll down to the bottom of the left column until you get to Customization.  There, click on Themes.  Now access the drop-down menu next to the Theme label (below "Choose your theme" to the right).  The drop-down should list all your saved themes (C:\Cakewalk Content\Cakewalk Themes).

    Kind regards,

  9. There is a simple way to combine/merge two (or more) projects into one.

    With your project open, navigate to your friend's project to where ever you saved it while in the Media Browser.  Once you located your friend's project there, simply click and drag it into your current project's TV.  Voila, instant merge of two in one.

    One thing to bare in mind, the two projects must share the same sample rate.

    Kind regards,

    I created a drum track in EZ Drummer (from within Cakewalk).  Now how do I turn it into a track in my Cakewalk project?

    Do you have a MIDI track in CbB?  Is EZD loaded in CbB?  If yes on both, set the MIDI track's input to EZD and activate the input Echo button.  If that is not the case, how did you insert EZD in CbB?

    Kind regards,
