My eyes and ears are bleeding from all the other DAW tutorials other than Cbb 2019 tutorial request If anyone actually has updated tutorial for how to connect all this, please post here. Cbb + VEP 7 Server Template using Kontakt Player 6 (basic Orch Library Kontakt Multi-out to Cbb The multi-outs are created in Kontakt Player 6 , but cannot figure out how to connect them in Cbb. MIDI data is showing, but can't hear anything other than Out 1/2.

[2019.07] The latest update(*) appears to ignore any theme override of the Control Bar Performance Modules "Meter color": (image removed) [UPDATED] It's more complicated than that. I switched between several themes and ended up back with the Performance Module respecting the color override. So this must have been some kind of theme-loading glitch. I withdraw my bug report. Sorry about that. (*) Note that I have not applied the 2019.07 hotfix at this time

Hello All, I don't know if this was posted already, but I just received the July 2019 Cakewalk by BandLab update. Go to BandLab Assistant on your PC > sign In (If not already signed in)> Click the Apps tab in the upper right corner > See the update under Cakewalk. ================ Release Notes (2019.07) Features & Enhancements Smart tool customization. The Smart tool can be customized in order to enable specific functions, including Move, Crop, Fade, Draw, and Comp. The Smart tool and Select tool have new icons. Centered Control Bar modules. Control Bar modules can be left-aligned, justified, or centered. Comping and Take lane enhancements. Freely assemble clips in track lanes either by recording or dragging and dropping from different sources. Configure the Smart Tool to disable comping features while editing audio on lanes and re-enable it when you are ready to start building a comp track. Copy/paste and drag drop enhancements, including full support for drag and drop of Take lanes between tracks, and improved drag drop preview to visually represent the final data. Help Module content for clips. In addition to a brief description of the clip type, the Help Module also lists common Smart tool gestures that are supported by each unique clip type. Selection markers in time ruler. The time ruler now shows draggable markers at either end of the time selection range. You can modify the start or end of the selection by dragging these markers or move the entire time selection by dragging the selection range bar. Loop and Punch marker enhancements. The time ruler now uses more intuitive mouse cursors for selection, loop, punch and marker drag bars and handles. The mouse cursor shows a letter to indicate which marker will be modified before you actually click the marker: S (Selection), L (Loop), P (Punch), and M (Marker). You can drag a Loop or Punch marker past its paired sibling marker in order to flip the range in the opposite direction.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ An Early Access build of Cakewalk by BandLab is now available, and we'd love for you to try it out! As an Early Access build, this is not an official Cakewalk release. If you have not already done so, please be sure to read about the Early Access Program before participating. Download the Cakewalk 2019.07 Early Access installer Please note that an official release will be announced once the Early Access period has ended. Thanks in advance for your participation! The Bakers 2019.07 brings major usability enhancements, including Comping and Take lane enhancements, Smart Tool customization, Control Bar module alignment and over 100 bug fixes. Highlights Smart Tool customization The Smart Tool can be customized in order to disable specific functions and simplify the Smart Tool behavior. The Smart Tool is powerful, but may produce unintended results in certain situations, such as inadvertently isolating clips in Take lanes when clicking the bottom half of clips. If you are not strictly using Take lanes for comping, you may want to disable the comping behavior. Center Control Bar modules Control Bar modules can be left-aligned, justified, or centered. Comping and Take lane enhancements Comping and take management has undergone a massive overhaul for this release with many workflow improvements, optimizations and bug fixes. A few highlights: Freely assemble clips in track lanes either by recording or dragging and dropping from different sources Configure the Smart Tool to optionally turn off comping features while editing audio on lanes and re-enable it when you are ready to start building a comp track Copy/paste and drag drop enhancements There have been numerous improvements and bug fixes with selection and copy paste: Inter project drag and drop and copy paste support for take lanes and automation lanes Improved drag drop preview to visually represent the final data Full support for drag and drop of take lanes between tracks. New lanes are auto appended to tracks when dropping / pasting clips from multiple lanes Lane order is retained when dropping / pasting clips from multiple lanes Improved support for pasting track and clip envelopes in lanes Help Module content for clips The Help module is a window that dynamically shows contextual help for various UI elements in Cakewalk. Simply point to a UI element for a brief moment, and the Help module displays a short description of the UI element. In addition to a brief description of the clip type, the Help Module also lists common Smart Tool gestures that are supported by each unique clip type. Selection markers in time ruler The time ruler now shows draggable markers at either end of the time selection range. You can modify the start or end of the selection by dragging these markers or move the entire time selection by dragging the selection range bar. Loop and Punch marker enhancements The time ruler now uses more intuitive mouse cursors for selection, loop, punch and marker drag bars and handles. The mouse cursor shows a letter to indicate which marker will be modified before you actually click the marker: S (Selection), L (Loop), P (Punch), and M (Marker).

When create an FX Region, Vocal Sync or Melodyne, for a clip, the FX Region clip got extended (much longer in duration) and the audio got pushed to the right. Or in other words, silent audio padded to the beginning of the clip for some large random number of bar and the original audio is at the end of the clip. Anyone seeing this?

I know that was last year, but still. HYPERION I was given the option for a 10% coupon since I own micro. If you are a customer already just maybe........ I emailed them to see what my upgrade price would be to elements. No reply yet. I looked on my account and was forced to admit that I actually bought the Flatulence library last year on sale.....hey it was on sale what was I supposed to do? I don't think there is an upgrade path for that one.

2019.09 updated documentation and online help include the following information statement: What is the default path to the user folder? What other content does the user folder contain? Is the user folder initially created by Cakewalk by BandLab or Windows? In other words is the user folder unique to CbB or is it something inherent in every installation of Windows?

There will be a total lunar eclipse coming our way, beginning on Sunday, January 20 2019, and lasting into the 21st! The darkest shaded areas of the globe are where the entire eclipse is visible from start to finish. Moving outward from that region, portions of the eclipse are visible. Where can I see it? Totality of this lunar eclipse can be seen and experienced everywhere in the Western Hemisphere, as well as extreme Northern Asia, Ireland, England, and portions of France, Spain, and Scandinavia. When will this event be taking place? The eclipse will begins on January 21, 2019 at 0236 GMT and will end at 0748 GMT. For those who don’t want to convert GMT to our time zone(s), the eclipse will run from 9:30 p.m., on Sunday, January 20, 2019 until 2:45 a.m. on Monday, January 21, 2019, for those on US Eastern Standard Time. Why will this be happening? The moon will pass through the Earth’s shadow on the far side of the Sun. When that happens, the moon will appear red (what is known as a Blood Moon) and get very dark before emerging from the shadow on the other side. For more info check out: B&H Eclipse Info

Studio One 4.6 is expected to be released today according to this article about a launch party https://www.eventbrite.com/e/presonus-studioone-46-launch-party-redbull-studios-london-tickets-82537252143 I assume as they are having a launch party this could be a significant update.

Hi How do I download the update for Cakewalk? I didn't want to hit the download button in case it re-installed Cakewalk and all my settings and plugins were lost Thanks Francois Samuel

This never happened with the previous versions: Long time to start Cakewalk, frequently displaying "Not Responding" Cakewalk crashes if the sound module is switched off before closing Cakewalk Computer: ASUS GL552V quad-core i7, 16GB RAM OS: Windows 10 Pro Sound Module: Fractal Audio Axe-FX III

Icons before 2019.07 : Star, select, etc.

When CbB 2019.01 was released, my CbB 2018.12 provided an update notification at launch, correctly. But now, my current 2019.01 version didn't alert about the Hotfix 1-23-2019 as shown in https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/topic/822-current-release-201901-updated-123/. I just discovered it because I read that forum updated post. What's wrong?

A roundup. "Keep in mind that the list is in a continuous update, so save the page link and come back for other new free plugins later." https://www.producerspot.com/best-free-vst-plugins-released-in-2019

At least, my installation just told me an update was available. Early days, but up and running on 2019.07 here. Thanks, Bakers!

Hi all! There's a problem with authorizations ONLY when using N4 3rd party official libs with other instances of any other Nebula programs. Here is a quote of a thread in old Cakewalk forum, October 24, 18: 2019 and I confirm this. So annoying and sad. Recently I lost all my mix recall due to this problem. Im and old Nebula and Acqua user and never a problem on Sonar. Rencently bought "Brighton", a 3rd party official Lib for N4, and it became a nightmare. Test on Reaper and no problem on same system (Win7 64bit) Any thoughts?
