Cakewalk + Akai MPK Mini controller: 1 of 8 midi knobs not working correctly.


Hneel

Question

Hello, I'm still kind of new to Cakewalk. At the moment I'm using it together with an 'Akai MPK Mini' midi keyboard and some software synth called 'Hybrid'. The 'Hybrid' software can be run both as a standalone Windows executable as well as a VST inside Cakewalk. Both methods work fine. 

Now lately I've been assigning the 8 multifunction knobs of the Akai to virtual knobs within the 'Hybrid' software. On the standalone Windows executable this works fine, except that program doesn't remember the assignements once you close it. But the VST in Cakewalk does. 

But today I noticed that one of the knobs is not working as it should. It's knob K3 (of K1..K8) that's acting weird. If I remember correctly it used to work fine before, but I might have fiddled with some settings here and there.  What the knob does now: in some positions it mutes all sound, in some positions it holds a note after I released the key and in other positions playing is just fine. I have tried to reassign the knob to the correct knob in 'Hybrid' (in my case: a volume knob of an oscilator), but that just doesn't work.

The knob still works in the standalone version and I also tried a midi debug viewer to check the Akai. It all looked fine, so I'm convinced the problem is somewhere in Cakewalk.

Is there a place where I can see the midi assignments or reset them? Even if it's in an .INI file.  Or else set all my Cakewalk settings to 'default'. Is this possible without having to uninstall and reinstall everything? (Even then I'm afraid it might save settings somewhere in the registry).
