tdehan Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 (edited) I installed Bandlab Cakewalk on a second PC yesterday and when I go to launch a project I get the message: Cakewalk TTS-1 cannot open registry error. I checked that TTS-1.dll is indeed in the Program Files\Cakewalk\Sharred DXi\TTS-1 folder. How do I fix this? Thanks Edited July 31, 2023 by tdehan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lord Tim Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Hmm... I've never seen that one before. First of all, reboot the system. Does that fix it? If not, try updating your Windows Redistributables, as per the info here: Let us know how you go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Lord Tim Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Yeah, very weird. In all of the machines I've installed CbB/SONAR, etc. on, I've never seen that. Can you tell us a bit about your computer? What OS? Is it fully patched? I assume this is the 2022.11 CbB installer, yeah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 John Vere Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 This might be an issue that @Noel Borthwick will understand what that error message is pointing at. Like Tim I have installed dozens of versions of both Cakewalk and Sonar and that's never happened. Could be a C++ issue. The TTS-1 has been causing issues for many users for a few years now so is is best not to have projects depend on it. I would hate to see it totally stop working because I use it to pre view downloaded midi files. If I keep the file I immediately replace all the instruments with much better sounding VST's. But I might leave TTS-1 in the project just for weird things the composer used like the helicopter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lord Tim Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 My guess is that something blocked the install somehow and some component didn't get registered properly. Some computer specs would help - what version of Windows, what version of Cakewalk, etc. What other software is installed? Was there any kind of antivirus or anti-malware running? (Even Windows Defender) Let's eliminate some variables first so we can zero in on a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JoeGBradford Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I had that problem (I think it was the same message) with my old Win 7 then Win 10 PC but just tried it on my new Win 11 one and it seems to work ok now. It is a fairly common problem - some people have suggested opening CbB as Admin which didn't work for me). There may be other workarounds if you search for TTS-1 in this forum. Good luck!

0 tdehan Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 I resolved the issue by completely removing Bandlab Cakewalk and re-installing. Thanks for all the suggestions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lord Tim Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 That supports my guess that something blocked part of the install, and would have been my next suggestion. The reason I asked about your environment was that this could happen again, so it's good to know what caused the issue. Glad you got it sorted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect you may have a registry permissions issue where something is blocking write access to the registry. Have you tried running as an administrator? EDIT: I see that a reinstall fixed it. Likely something blocked it from installing properly. (AV perhaps) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mettelus Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 You should be able to simply re-register TTS-1 if it is already installed. I see you had posted this same issue before, so for future reference, the steps in this post by bitflipper are all you should need to do if it recurs.

0 Patrick van den Eijnden Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Opening Cakewalk as administrator did the trick for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
