You need an audio interface with a Loopback Feature.

To use input echo and real time effects you need a combination of a real powerful PC and a top end audio interface so that you can run a low buffer settings. Audio Interfaces and features- https://youtu.be/z6gjvuCV4GE

Sound Blaster cards have a very badly written ASIO driver and are not recommended. You're better off to pull that card and use your on board audio. Long history of issues. It obviously doesn't support WASAPI. But you have a proper interface you should use that for in and out and things will work properly. If all you have is computer speakers then plug those in using an adapter to the interface headphones or the rear outputs. https://youtu.be/Avtw7dOb0fM https://youtu.be/iAeqy0nW5uY

There’s another thread with same question First thing you should always do is Enter your question to Google. But there’s 2 ways First is drag the audio to the timeline and melodyne will try and create a tempo map. Second is audio snap. There’s lots of tutorials on the subject. My favourite is the one by Mike of Creative Sauce

You need to supply a lot more info. There’s nothing to go on to help you. Don’t be afraid to go into details the more we know the quicker the solution Is this just one old project? W10, certain plug ins there’s lots of reasons.

Well I depends on your Audio interfaces drivers. Not all ASIO Interfaces support other driver modes. My Tascam hates WASAPI Exclusive and My Motu doesn't recognize WDM or MME etc. The Zoom probably has poorly written audio drivers and might not support WASAPI. There's been other posts in the past where people couldn't get this to work smoothly. The Zoom becomes your audio interface sort of but it was not really designed as such. The Focusrite seems happy with all modes more or less. I had both my on board and the Focusrite with all modes except WASAPI shared. MME I loose the other inputs and outputs. I would assume your Focusrite uses a similar driver so this is a Zoom driver issue, nothing to do with Cakewalk.

You can also just grab the end of the midi clip and drag blank space. I do this a lot.

The OP actually doesn't need a waltz, The song they posted is a 6/8 slow blues-- big difference. @Jaap Geraerts let me know if the midi file works for you.

Might be a bug in version 4? I just did it again in the same song same guitar but a different clip.. The song has a lot of audio and midi going on. And doing this I created a cool sound by now doubling the guitar riff with a Banjo VST called YoJo. Anyhow in the past I've probably converted close to 100 bass tracks into midi. I even did this with Home studio. So I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem but here's what we do now.. @Noel Borthwick - now Noel will read this thread. He'll probably ask for you to send a copy of the project.

I don't know but I just tried this were I took a lead guitar solo and dragged it to a new midi track and I got a pretty good tracking of the guitar solo. Only a few octave jumps to edit and it's done. Did you set the dialog to "melodic" ? I have the latest Cakewalk with Build 147 and Melodyne Assistant 5. Only thing that I can think of is your selecting more than the one track,, but that wouldn't explain the deleted files.

If you use ON Board audio then watch this video. https://youtu.be/iAeqy0nW5uY If you are using a proper audio interface then watch this one. https://youtu.be/Avtw7dOb0fM

That exactly what I was referring to You create a tempo map by dragging audio to the timeline or you use audio snap and spend all day moving marks around

There are lots of good tutorials on using Audio snap. Mike of Creative Sauce has a real good one. Did you try dragging one of the drum tracks like the hi hat to the time line. This is a Melodyn feature that works when it works. I found hi hat the best.

Funny how people don't take the time to read the release notes which is offered after the install. This is real important information and much easier to take the time right then to do this. You'll miss out on all the new features some of which you actually might need.

Oh I had you all wrong- That's a blues song and totally different. You'd have the blues fans running for cover if you played a actual Waltz It's actually what we call 6/8 time or Slow Blues. The snare or accent is on the 4. not the 1. Here's a better example. October.mid 6-8 time 60BPM drum loop.mid

You are correct and it's why I often avoid using the metronome. I use drum patterns instead, most originated with my Roland 505 drum machine. Here are a few of my midi drum patterns as well as the Tennessee Waltz which has bass and strings as well. Make sure you have NO midi output devices selected in Preferences and the TTS-1 should load and play these files. waltz beat 85 BPM.mid WALTZ 2 104 BPM.mid Waltz 3 122 BPM.mid TENNESSEE WALTZ.mid

The video was on my possible to do list and I bumped up production thinking it might just be what you needed. My methods are probably not approved by the big guns but I don't care, it works for me and seems like it worked for you too. Ya, that old turn up you monitor thing often gets me as well. I used to have little white out marks on my old Power amp and I always set my other controls at 12 o clock and leave them there. My new power amp needs me to put that white out line on it soon! But I use the You lean Meter to tell me what my getting deaf now ears don't. I was tested last year at Costco and they said I "should" be wearing hearing aids. Phooey on that. I can hear my wife yelling at me same as always. ANd I can always move that white line up a few more db

Check for automation on the drum track. Look in the event list as well. That is the only thing I know about that can change the level of a midi track

I got a PM from You Tube asking why I didn't mention USB mixing boards. I thought about it but the video was already 12 minutes before editing. Yes USB mixing boards can also be audio interfaces but to me they fall under Mixing board first- Audio interface second. I decided to stick to the topic that I figured most would be interested in. I have a Soundcraft Signature 10 which I used as an interface briefly before it just stop working. Hard to recommend that. Crappy generic drivers. I have also used Behringer Xair and a Yamaha mixer. The Xair was so complicated I just gave up, I really needed an iPad,, but I do believe they make good interfaces. The Yamaha was basically a Steinberg audio interface and I would highly recommend that, But my experience is very limited and short lived so why trust my opinion. The problem is most are only a 2x2 interface and this confuses people when they see all of those inputs. And some have bad drivers or use generic. Then the good ones like the Yamaha are probably out of a lot of peoples budgets. $600 is a lot to pay for a 2x2 interface. It's certainly is a great choice for a band needing board mixes or a person with a lot of hardware needing to be connected. But then It might be more cost effective to purchase a none USB mixer and a 4x4 interface. So there, I left all of this out of the video to save time. Maybe I'll make a part II and elaborate on the process of choosing.

Making this video I spent a lot of time on a few vendor sites just looking for the pictures. Often they don't even show the back which is more important to me than the front. It's easier to understand features by looking at the pictures than to read through 2 paragraphs of hype. I discovered where this is not always the case is with items like Instrument/line toggle buttons and the mix control for blending playback with input. This is sometimes hidden away in the software mixer. If you hate software mixers then you need to be aware of this. When you first look at the picture you would have to assume these features are missing.. which sometimes they are. But you can understand that using a software solution instead of the more convenient hardware option keeps the cost down. Like the missing power supply on my Motu M4 cost me $40 to fix. I would have been happy to pay that to have it included, but then the Motu would have been a higher price than the other competing 4x4 units on the market so you can see the strategy there. Consumers drive the market and the majority make the mistake of shopping by cost and not shopping by other important factors. I had never even heard of a lot of the units I found. Amazing at how many I would never consider purchasing because my list of needs. People come on this forum a lot asking for recommendations and that's OK but its only a small factor on choosing the correct interface. And we can become easily Biased when we only have a small world of experience. So therefore this video which I hope will help the many people who have never used an interface before look a little harder at what they need first before pulling the trigger. I think at this point in time interfaces all have good ASIO drivers and then it's really a price point driven market of the more you spend the more you get. My quest last November for a 4x4 interface showed me that once you narrow it down to say 6 brands then the final pick is the one that is the closest to your ideal. They are never perfect. And price can defiantly sway you.

Please remove thread- Video needed updating -editing.

Don't know if the two are related but this was due to another Izotope plug in.

I rebuilt 2 computers last year and also did similar to what Andy did. I wanted fresh so cloning was not a good idea. I have everything backed up to a portable drive including my command Center stuff. I did install splat first and then CbB. The thing that takes the longest is VST’s. But I just installed the ones I actually use and the rest are easy to grab if I need them.

Do you set your input to Omni It might be a channel issue

Your thread actually now serves a purpose. People will now know if they had your issue that it could be a plug in. And Isotope stuff is often a problem with Cakewalk. I uninstalled all of mine. It was my first thought when I saw this thread.
