About Me

  1. Recently, I had the privilege of doing a review for IK Multimedia’s “SampleTron 2” an awesome VSTi with all of the feel of the 60’s and 70’s under the hood. I shared the review with my audience and tagged IK Multimedia in the social posts. To my surprise they made a front page article about the review and gave Cakewalk some love in the process! Check out the link below to see their write up about it all: https://www.ikmultimedia.com/news/?item_id=11665 Viva La Cakewalk!
  2. Hi folks! OMG, I found a way to control Cakewalk with an iPad! It's easy (when you know how). Let me explain.... WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/d5Fjx5hASVE
  3. Hi folks! To celebrate the release of the new export features in Cakewalk, I have a complete rundown for you! WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/JgLoPMp-1_s
  4. Hello! As you can see in the image I attach, I can't add a new audio buffer. Why is that? I have problems with midi instruments. They don't sound as they should. Please, help me.
  5. Many Midi controlled VSTi instruments change articulation, expression, patterns, etc. based on midi "control notes" (i.e. C0, F#1, ...) Is there any way to hide these notes in Staff View? An implementation could work on a per track or global mode indicating a bottom and a top midi note to use in the filtering feature. Thank you.
  6. Cakewalk Sound Center's Pan + Volume knobs are clearly explained in the F1 online help, but not their right-click menus. I accidentally changed one of the values of these menus recently, and I'm confused and wondering if I messed something up. The knobs' menus indicate their current level. But they also show a current MIDI Learn CC selection (see fig. A) or a short menu with no Learn (see fig. B). It appears the context of these menus changes when "Add MIDI Control" is selected. This applies to both knobs and they can be set independently. I don't understand the right-click menus. Is there a default MIDI Control to set it to, or can it be anything I choose? I don't use MIDI Learn. Do I have to worry about these right-click menus, and will these "learned" controls affect playback? And for that matter, can someone explain "Set Min, Set Max, and Reverse"? As stated, I've only recently discovered these menus. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
  7. Hi folks! Programming your own custom drum patterns is a key skill, so I jumped into Cakewalk and created a beginner's guide! WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/zHlDv3fs2F8
  8. So I had the "not responding problem" that some people are also getting. I figured out it has to do with the audio input and output. I originally had it set to Fl studio, after unchecking everything the app worked as it should. Only problem is I don't know which audio input and output to choose so I can actually hear. Can someone lead me to the right direction please? thanks *edit: I just checked voicemeter aux for input and output and it seems to work fine now.
  9. After updating to the most recent version of Cakewalk I booted up some old projects I've been working on but when I hit play it seems everything plays at half speed or slower, I was wondering if anyone else experienced this and how to get around it?
  10. I have a Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK that I previously used with GarageBand no problem. Now im on a PC and I wanted to try out CakeWalk but am having some issues. Originally I was able to get a signal from the board into DAW, record and play back. On playback there was a clicking noise on the recording (wasn't same tempo as metronome) that I couldn't get rid of. I swapped Driver Mode from MME to ASIO, got rid of clicking but cant get signal into DAW now. I have install/swapped driver modes/reinstalled drivers and cant get signal. Not even a blip on the meter on any configuration. I've enabled record/echo and still nothing. Playing back sound from youtube and demo tracks is no problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  11. Hey all, Not sure if this is the best place to put this, but what the hey: I have an unmanageably large library of instruments on a powerful computer that’s impossible to bring portably. If it’s not a feature yet, I’d like to request a feature and/or app that would allow my, say, laptop or even iPad, to the extent it can, be able to load projects in cakewalk remotely over the internet and use the resources of the stationary desktop to help with rendering audio FX, VSTi’s, MIDI, and audio data. In the mean time, What’s the best way to work on Cakewalk remotely? Codefreq
  12. Hi, I am having many troubles with CAKEWALK by BANDLAB and Steinberg Virtual Bassist. The VST is well recognized by the CAKEWALK, and even it began to work, but once you picked the sound you may like in the VST, it crashes all around. And that’s all. Does anyone has the same problem??? Any Help? Please. W10 / 64
  13. Hi. I have created an Instrument Definition file for the Yamaha Reface DX. This INS file shows factory patch names and CC controllers. Bye 😉 Yamaha Reface DX.zip

I intalled the ASIO driver, but i got the behringer UM2 working with WASAPI with the following configuration (attached) I get monitor from my pc's speakers and also from the output of the UM2.

  15. Hi folks! Workspaces and Screensets can do wonders for workflow in Cakewalk, but which one should you use? Take a look at my examples! WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/6ahr6R8Ot7U
  16. Hello again, fellow KWalkers 😃. Quick question first. Does posting songs on Bandlab preserve their fidelity? I find that files lose quality in SoundCloud. It doesn't allow me to switch streaming from standard to high quality audio. Hoping to hear what your experience is with that. 🙏 So...about this song: This was the song I moved onto after I learned enough about programming guitars with MusicLab's RealGuitar and RealStrat on "For All We Know", as I mentioned in my last post, so all instruments here are also VST. The song is an original in Spanish that talks about missing someone and if Spanish is not one of your languages I would love it if you could show it to a friend. Yes, it's mine BTW and it's definitely not mastered either but I hope they get the idea. I didn't wanna bore you all with the translation here but I can add it later if anyone cares. 🤙 Meanwhile I hope you can listen to it and treat my voice in your minds just like another instrument. (I'd prefer to be a guitar in your minds if it's all the same to you LOL) At the time I wrote it I envisioned making it in the style of "Jesus To A Child" by George Michael, but that changed with the passage of time and under other influences. When I finally recorded the track as posted here, I had been listening a lot to John Mayer, so I ended up experimenting with some of his approaches to dynamics and arrangements. He doesn't have a powerful voice so they use a close mic-ing technique and they put kind of a flat EQ on his lead vocals (I hand held a Shure Beta 58 for this one) . They also put the lead vocals up front so the diction cuts through, and then they surround it with alternate vocal and instrumental melodies that become part of the chords in the arrangement. Maybe because of that they also don't mix the bass and drums as a typical rock mix. This is most often how they mix pop in other languages too, so to Spanish language listeners (me included) this approach feels natural. Though I can reach the higher notes in the backing vocals here, I used the available Melodyne and lowered the entire bounced track as needed to punch in some of the phrases and then moved those punches to the original song's key for mixing. The advantage I found to doing it this way is that the slight difference in texture (format) makes the harmonies more interesting. (Not feeling like the Castrati was another welcome benefit LOL) I hope you guys enjoy or at the very least can relate. Be well, KWalkers
  17. Are you still on the fence about making the switch from Cakewalk Sonar to Cakewalk by BandLab? This video should help!
  18. Hello there. Recently I have been having trouble in regards to fixing a problem that is related with the BBC symphony orchestra plugin where in its track after 4 sec of playing it stops like it would just stop reading any midi keys I would write for it in its track. I would really would love some assistance regarding this as frustrating to deal with. Let me know if you need any other info regarding this. Thanks!
  19. Hello Cakewalkers, Getting my feet wet with fretboard view so I can try MIDI guitar sounds via the TTS-1. I have two chords shown in the screenshot. All I want to do is change from half notes to quarter notes where I select the entire chord and change the note speed. Is there an easy was to do this? When I select the entire chord and simply click on a quarter note or hit return, I get nothing. Thanks.
  20. Hi folks! From organizing your workspace, to hidden controls for your plugins - I have 5 handy (slightly random) Cakewalk tips for you in this video! WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/pkEfs-NVKII
  21. https://coursenigma.thinkific.com/courses/cakewalk-course-complete-guide-go-from-beginner-to-advance I just discovered this course. It has good reviews and I'm considering buying it. What do yall think? Anyone here has bought it?
  22. I have a problem that I cannot solve, when I create an instrument track, the whole mix starts to play on one instrument (the drum part, etc. is played, for example, on the piano) If I go into the settings and disable the Always Echo Current MIDI track option, then the problem disappears, but I need to manually press the Input Echo button all the time for the instrument to start playing. PLEASE, who knows how to solve this problem, write !!! Thank you in advance
  23. Every time I use The Pro Channel The FET Compressor crashes Cakewalk??????
  24. I'm new to Bandlab and Cakewalk. I installed Cakewalk and I want to login with Google but everytime I want to login with my Google Account. I got redirected to the specific Google Account Page and I use Chrome. I got everytime "Error 400 (Bad Request)" and I don't know why is it happen. Can someone help me to fix this problem? PS: Sry for bad english, I'm German.
  25. Started a project, added some guitar, midi drums, etc. Closed cakewalk, when I came back, there is a crackle on all the audio in the project. This crackle happens whenever the amp devices show up in the device list in preferences, even if unchecked. It happens in all existing projects when they are loaded with the amp added, but doesn't affect a new project with the amp added until it is reloaded. "Turning it off and on again" doesn't help. The computer doesn't seem overworked from the graphics at the top, and I have tried everything that I could think of, so would love some help with this. Thanks
