Link to my post yesterday. The shift-key solution suggested a day ago worked pretty well, my projects opened smoothly, no pop up or lack of sound or whatever. But just now, the problem is at it again and this pop-up appears when I try to open it. And it's even worse When I press Yes to All, the program closes itself again. When I press No to All, the program opens, but all the MIDI tracks I already programmed/made don't make a sound. Note that when I add new tracks though, they still make sound. But I don't want to start from square one, and have this problem roll around again the next day. It seems like a VST/plugin problem considering the way my projects open when I choose No to All in the pop -up. But I want to know, what on earth screws up in the system when I open projects some time after working with them? I opened this project twice yesterday (1 PM, 11 PM) and there was no issue, but more than 18 hours later (right now it's 6 PM) it's stubborn again. This is so frustrating. I don't want to do this every time I want to work on my projects.

I actually missed 2.0.13 All info below https://kilohearts.com/ Please check the following few posts if you have kHs One installed. It may be removed or broken by the installer. Wake up @everyone, version 2.0.13 just dropped! This version features a new modulation module, the Slew Limiter. You can use it to filter your other modulation sources. Perfect to soften rapid changes in pressure, for example. I'm sure you will find something fun to do with it! Note that the Kilohearts Installer no longer installs kHs ONE as this is a legacy product and is no longer supported. The final version of kHs ONE can be downloaded here: https://kilohearts.com/docs/download_and_installation#khs_one Now, onto the change log: General - New modulator: Slew Limiter - DSP & UI performance improvements. - Fixed broken inverted mode for the LFO Table modulator. - Fixed a memory leak that could cause some memory to not be freed when loading a new preset. Phase Plant - Made sideband input on modulators work for global voice as well. Gain - Fixed a bug sometimes causing clicks when automating the gain. Happy holidays @everyone! Version 2.0.14 is out. Some bugfixes, especially for you! - Fixed a problem where the modulation lane disappeared in some cases. - Fixed a problem where macro knobs changed position slightly depending on number of modulations. - Fixed a problem where modulators didn't always follow their group's enable state properly.

Update: UVI OB Legacy Run UVI Portal for update

Run the UVI Portal for the Walker 2 Update.

Greetings, all I have updated BandLab Assistant after getting notification that an update for Cakewalk is available. I have clicked on BL assistant to download the update, but it just didn't, not even after several hours. It just shows "dowloading (0/0)". My desktop doesn't log out after any amount of time and doesn't require a password for logging on, exactly to prevent the interruption of downloads. I am running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 19044), with 6144MB RAM. Thank you

Cherry Audio Mercury-4 Update to 1.50 available at Cherry Audio log in. (7/15/22)

Hi I don't use Melodyne Plugin and I don't intend to use it. Cakewalk keeps asking me to Update/Download this plugin everytime I open it. It's annoying. Please give a way to cancel that or dismiss it.

The new 2022.06 update Toast message says the SI suite has an update. Have they changed or added something? Curious because the version # seems to be the same as what I already have.

I made the mistake of clicking update when I saw there was a new version of Calkwalk available and now I have no Calkwalk. The update downloads and then the install starts but right at the end I get back to back errors Unable to register the DLL/OCX: RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x3 I Googled this and followed every thing I saw to fix it with no luck. Because the update removes your old version first now I have no Calkwalk. I can of course click Ignore on each one of these and then I have Calkwalk but its a lot of DLL errors that I am clicking ignore to and I am sure something would not work right. I have Windows 10 x64 current on all windows updates. No antivirus only Windows Defender. I am to the point now of needing to go back to my over DAW but I love Calkwalk please help.

So, there was an issue with my UI at first. I figured it was because my version of Cakewalk was out of date, so I decided to update it. When I went to Bandlab Assistant and tried to update it, however, it was stuck at "installing." I did some searching, and decided that the best course of action would be to uninstall and reinstall Cakewalk. I backed up my vsts, and uninstalled cakewalk, making sure not to delete shared files. Once I tried to reinstall, however, I ran into the same problem as before, with it being stuck at "installing." At this point I am frustrated and confused, and I am desperate. I see on some forums that you can install it manually by finding the exe file in the system folder. I check there, and sure enough, I find a file called "Cakewalk_by_BandLab_Setup_27.01.0.098_r1.exe" which gives me a sense of relief. I try to open it, and it says "the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable." Under it is another exe file, "Cakewalk_by_BandLab_Update_Setup_26.09.0.006.exe", and I try that one despite being out of date. The wizard fires up, and I select my language, but I am then met with another message saying "This installer requires Cakewalk by Bandlab version 2020.08." My computer is up to date and my drivers are good. I'm confused and nervous, as I have sunk a year and a half on this program and I do not think I would realistically be able to learn another one any time soon. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
