Astral 11 Posted February 7, 2020 Every time I click on something (Like Start, Stop, Timeline), it starts and stops or give me quick glitch and does not play- it feels like I have issue with the mouse. So I changed the mouse to new, and it doing the same thing. Initially I noted that Timeline feels smaller- like it got more complicated. It doing all different things, the pointer takes different shapes and it is hard to simply click on certain measure and select or do what ever. I don't get this feeling. But Play function constantly turns to Pause. I have to click more than once to start the song. I am not shortcut type of person and use mouse for everything. And it has strange behavior. I dont have the latest update. I already changed mouse but still doing weird things. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dcumpian 89 Posted February 7, 2020 Also, if you are using a USB audio interface, try moving the mouse to a USB port on a different bus. Dan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chuckebaby 783 Posted February 8, 2020 It could be a display issue. What kind of video card do you have ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JonD 44 Posted February 9, 2020 Was it all working fine before? If so, have you made any recent changes to your system? Try disconnecting your wi-fi temporarily, see if that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Astral 11 Posted February 9, 2020 The video card is about $250 range nVidia gaming card. I did not have this problem before. I did have problem of Play not working completely when certain Kontakt instruments that have its own Play function were opened, but that is all different story. This feels like Click is too fast and hits Play twice or something, so it goes to the Pause instead of playing. The Timeline issue is because something changed with Timeline- it has new functions now- what are those arrows? Would be nice to read what they did to the timeline.

chuckebaby 783 Posted February 9, 2020 I swear there was something posted here a while back about turning off hardware acceleration. Thus the reason i asked about the video card. Check this out though, it might help http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/2007013377/Faders-and-Knobs-Do-Not-Move-Smoothly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An expensive video card usually installs a bunch of extra "utilities" with the software. Make sure there's nothing unnecessary running in the background. Go into Task manager-Startup and delete everything not absolutely necessary. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
