I keep updating BandLab and Cakewalk with every new update, but I can't find any info on what the updates are for. I just updated BandLab to ver. 5.0.2 and Cakewalk to 2019.01 (Build 24, 64 bit). Anyone have any idea where I can find notes on new releases? I follow the link for release notes and all it does is give notes for 2018.11 (https://www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk/whats-new)

I just discovered that I've apparently been laboring under the mistaken impression that I have the latest version of CbB installed. When I hit Help/Check for update, it reports I have v24.11.0.31 installed and it states, "You are up to date!" But just now, I hit Help/Documentation, which takes me over to Cakewalk's old site, and at the bottom right of the banner, right next to "Cakewalk by BandLab" in muted gray tones is 25.01.0. I check into things a bit further and I find, indeed that 2019.01 exists and has some new features. So I launch the BandLab app, in search of a link to the latest update, but I can't find any. Even when I do a search about on Cakewalk's old site, I can't find any. What I do find are links to download Cakewalk -- all over the place. So, now I'm wondering -- is this how one installs the updates now, by downloading the entire program and installing it over itself? If there is indeed a link to an update, I'd sure appreciate it if you would tell me where it's hiding. Cuz I couldn't find one after a good ten minutes of looking for it. And what's up with Cakewalk -- not SPlat, but CbB -- what's up with it telling me "You are up to date!" anyway? Especially when I'm not.

Just wanted to let you know... it appears they added a new maximum for project templates (500). From the (2019.01) Release Notes: "Start Screen can now show up to 500 project templates (previously limited to 100)"

Yes 2019.01 is the latest version. There is something wrong with the back end reporting the incorrect version to CbB thats why its not detecting it. We're waiting for it to be fixed. For now go ahead and install from BandLab assistant.

Which release of TX16Wx and plug-in format? I checked free versions 3.0.14b (VST2 and VST3) and 3.0.16b VST3. They all only add a single stereo output when selecting "All Synth Audio Outputs: Stereo" in CbB 2019.01.

Both the Gran Vista Black & Blue and Carbon themes have now been updated to support recent modifications in CbB 2019.01. This includes the Ripple Edit indicator and the new Plugin Browser text colours. Download links are found in the post below.

No Michael, the OP was not, but he wasn't asking about the Presonus Quantum either which I'm sure is quite impressive as it is quite expensive. And I believe to be an ill suited recommendation for an audio interface specifically "optimized" for Presonus Studio One software, and where the OP specifically centered the thread on Cakewalk software and Focusrite audio interfaces. My main reason for choosing Behringer as a comparison to Presonus is they are quite comparable to each other and competitive in their respective market. I have also conducted and participated in several sound quality double blind shoot out tests between the two. And every time while all participants universally agree that Presonus XMAX mic preamps sound great, all participants universally agree that Behringer's Midas design preamps sound AWESOME! I am very familiar and experienced with the Behringer X 32 and have mixed FOH (Front of House) and recorded directly into SPLAT which providing 4 to 6 individual custom monitor mixes for several live shows with it. That would typically require 3 separate audio engineers, one for FOH sound reinforcement, one for the monitor mix, and one for the multi-track recording session recording at 24/48. I easily managed these tasks single handedly, by my self with a 100% success rate, which, any anyone in the business will agree is ultimately impressive. What is bone chillingly impressive is the sound quality. And how GOOD does the unit sound? Well that depends completely of your mixing and skill levels of course I have had the pleasure of using and setting up the XR 18 once and controlling it with my Behringer X Touch DAW controller for a friend's band. One of the beauties of digital mixers is and getting the band's mix sounding tight and right, you save it as a mix scene then you never need to adjust EQ, Compression, FX, monitor mixes, etc. ever again. All you need to remember is what channel to plug the mics and line inputs, and outputs in to and you are DONE. Also with Behringer X series digital mixers have EXCELLENT very low noise high gain MIDAS preamps, you do not need to add any extra third party plugins such as Omnisphere/Tape Emulation plugs, although you can if you want to, but the X series has over 50 of it's own built in very high quality plugins which run 4 of it's own 40 bit floating point sound engines. Very high quality, very LARGE selection of very usable modern day FX to a very familiar models of vintage FX in fact, like Lexicon reverbs, Neve EQ and compressors, a Teletronix LA2A, to name just a few. It also has very good test and diagnostics built in including a 100 band RTA spectrum analyzer EQ. The X series are highly field tested which a years long track record, and are already HIGHLY acclaimed by highly acclaimed professional engineers. And being the XR 18 also provides 6 independent physical AUX sends PLUS and "additional" independent 18 in x 18 out USB 2 audio interface, it provides for 3 independent stereo monitor mixes with ZERO LATENCY MONITORING. The XR 18 is more then capable and powerful enough to be used as a central audio interface "hub" to monitor input, output, and a DAW at the same time, as does the and in the same fashion as a Universal Audio Apollo. But does the XR 18 sound better then an Apollo? well that totally depends on you audio engineer skill level, and or whether you prefer apples to oranges. And when someone tells me they are upgrading from a Universal Audio Apollo to a Presonus Quantum is, well, umm, I'm sorry that's simply to far of a stretch of the imagination for me, not even believable to even compare Presonus favorably above UA. Sorry, can't wrap my mind around that. The very idea Presonus bests UA to even be considered an "upgrade" simply echo's off the hollows of my brainpan. Only thing I know is I for one am MUCH more impressed with a great sounding mix done on inexpensive gear then I am with an OK sounding mix done with expensive gear, and this happens all the time in the year of 2019 boys and girls, as technology and manufacturing techniques refine and improve, the prices drop to the point of even broke musicians and hobbyists can now afford to play with the big boys toys they could never even dream of doing 10 years ago. For instance, as much as I have always loved my aging Teletronix LA2A, I get exacting results with the Cakewalk CA2A VST plugin. The only difference is I have an unlimited amount of CA2A's, and now I don't need 2 LA2A's to strap across a stereo buss. And oh, BTW, Behringer's model of the LA2A can achieve identical unmistakable LA2A results, and it's vintage Neve EQ's are mistakenly and totally identifiably Neve and with full and total parameter control al all. The XR 16 has all FX covered, so well, you don't have to rely or use any plugins in your DAW to make great sounding recording projects, and that saves an enormous amount stress on your CPU. But of course you can if you want to.. And so what's the purpose of having so many inputs and outputs if you can't even use them?

Yes I'm pretty sure I tried that before but I just tried again anyway and it still hangs. I have not been able to get the newest update to download successfully yet so I will try again once I get 2019-1 installed.

and now (wasn't earlier) there's a Cakewalk update!!! Edit: but maybe that's what Larry intended to say in his 2nd post... Release Notes (2019.01) Features & Enhancements In addition to exporting Cakewalk projects to BandLab, you can now also export projects from your BandLab library and open them in Cakewalk Ripple Edit indicator in the Track view Export Module now displays H:M:S:F, and the Selection mode persists if there is no selection Start Screen can now show up to 500 project templates (previously limited to 100) BandLab Assistant can be launched from the Utilities menu Integrated zplane élastique Pro audio stretching and pitch shifting has been updated to version 3.3 with bug fixes and performance enhancements Cakewalk Plug-in Manager optimizations Plug-in Browser text colors can be edited in Cakewalk Theme Editor; VST2 and VST3 plug-ins use different colors Option to view release notes after installation is complete New user forums (discuss.cakewalk.com) now accessible from the Help menu Bug Fixes Recording on muted Take lanes was possible Missing folders could reassign user paths to the AppData path automatically Switching plug-in categories in the Cakewalk Plug-in Manager could be very slow

I think the 2019.01 release must have literally just come out. I did a check yesterday, and 2018.11 was the latest version. I'd give it a few hours until the guys in Boston wake up - the release notes should follow.
