mark skinner Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) Opened CbB on my "offline" pc this morning. I was greeted with a screen about the new Sonar and a link to learn more about it. At least I'm seeing some movement .. I guess it will be popping up from now on . ?? ms Edited February 1 by mark skinner 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FJ Lamela Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Yes, i have the same problem, i can't open any projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryW Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I've not seen the pop-up myself yet, but had a look at the Sonar pages to see if there were any updates. I noticed the suggested specs have been posted. What's not clear is if 8 cores means physical cores or logical cores, as if it's 8 physical cores, then I guess a new PC is on the cards...

John Vere Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Is this only happening with people who are off line? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked the Bakers about that a while back. Their answer was that 4 physical cores should be enough for the Core Cakewalk program. They mention 8 cores on the specifications to cater for any possible third party plugins that the Bakers may wish to include in the final release of the new sonar. Of course, we do not know which, if any, third party plugins will be included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Wynn Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 3 devices and no pop up. All are online, running various Win 11 betas with the very last CbB installed. To be honest I’m just happy people are reporting some kind of forward progress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol_Jonesey Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 This "splash screen" will ONLY pop up if you open CbB whilst being offline. If you go online first you'll never see it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Collins Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I've been away overseas for three weeks, started up my music PC for the first time today and got the pop-up, but now Cakewalk won't open any of my projects and even if I just start it up and do nothing it freezes. I've tried reinstalling it, but it's totally borked - I can't do anything. This is incredibly distressing - does anyone have any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the countdown reaches zero you can click through? Are you off line? If so, and if you can, go online and the countdown should not appear.

Steve Collins Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I’ve tried it offline, seen the pop-up, waited for the countdown and closed it. I’ve also tried it online and not seen the pop-up. The problem is once CW starts I can see the cursor switching from the arrow to a circle and back, like it’s constantly thinking about something. I can’t use the software at all. Everything else on my system is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windows updates would have happened in that time. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling (and updating if necessary) the drivers your audio interface?.

Steve Collins Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 First of all, I want to thank you for your help. Second, I realised it was a problem with my soundcard and I’ve managed to fix it. Can’t express how relieved I am 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fine when I am home working on projects and am online however, when my band is performing live my Surface tablet is NOT online not to mention many of the outside venues we play there is no internet... What a stupid suggestion or requirement... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
