Although cakewalk has methods to get layered tracks they are not entirely convenient. It ultimately requires either copying a recording or recording a take on multiple tracks. This means that edits have to be done on more than one track or use a linked track if you want to hear the full sound while you edit.
Linked tracks do seem to slow down the playback at times so I won't use them.
The best solution I think would be to introduce a way to route a midi track output to the input of ano
More flexible MIDI routing would be nice.
Until that time.
Here is a method for sharing MIDI data hosted in one track across multiple tracks that does not rely on linking, copying or recording the same data multiple times.
Add an instrument track with a synth plug-in that sends MIDI data such as Code FN42 MidiChFilter, NoteMapper, or VeloScaler.
Then use the plug-in from step 1 as the input for all the instrument and MIDI tracks needing to share the data.
