Thanks for the replies! I had bought Sonar Platinum before it was taken over by BandLab. Do they consider that when purchasing this, or no? New features look interesting. I was curious if they had done anything with some of the older issues: Score editor, video compatibility mainly. And yes, "decades old" I've been using cakewalk/sonar since the late 90's. Time flies!

Curious about the new Sonar version. Is it just the same-old with a face-lift? Have any decades old issues been sorted? Thanks

This seems to be helping! Thanks! I am combining UAD/Waves/FabFilter and a few other plug manufacturers. Interesting.

I am rendering in real time, yes.

Glitches are in the exported audio.

Hello, I'm having issues with glitches or gaps in audio, after I export it from Cakewalk. Everything fine during playback but after I export (live or not live export), there is often a glitch or a few glitches near the top of the file. I'm a long time user, I know about buffer size etc. Something else is causing this I believe. I've played with read and write caching, they don't seem to make any difference. I'm using a combination of UAD plugins (Which never seem to cause issues) and also waves and a few others. Never had these issues before. I also try disabling internet/security etc. Sometimes helps but not always. Task manager not showing any large use of disk or memory. Curious if anyone has any suggestions I could try. Thanks Jono

Hi, I'm working on a surround music mix (5.1) in Cakewalk, all is good. (Monitoring through a UAD Apollo x8P, in 5.1 monitoring mode) I notice in Vegas video, there is a single button method of monitoring the downmix on-the-fly. So you can flip back and forth between 5.1 and the stereo downmix. (It's in the monitor mixer section) Is there a method of doing this right in Cakewalk? Perhaps a workaround way, like, exporting the surround mix to a multichannel wave and then re-importing it back into Cakewalk? Would that replicate the down mix, or would it be inaccurate? Any ideas appreciated. Thanks! Jono

One more bit of info: If I just import the kick drum audio into superior drummer with the tempo map it synchs fine. It's if I try to create a kick drum midi file and bring that in. Then it doesn't sync. I'd like to have the midi file though so I can trigger to other samples that are outside of Superior Drummer 3. So this has something to do with the way I'm bringing the kick drum midi file back into Cakewalk. perhaps it want's no tempo map in Cakewalk after importing? Can't figure it out. J

Hi I have a Cakewalk session with a rather detailed tempo map. I have live drums following the click that uses that same tempo map. All good. I export my individual live drum tracks that I want to bring into SD3 trigger. When I work with a single tempo, I simply type that tempo in to the superior drummer program and everything lines up. In this case, I make a separate midi track from start to finish. I export that midi starting from bar one. It makes a midi file with the tempo map embedded. All good. When I import that midi track into superior drummer's tempo map area, it goes in but it is not accurate. When I create the drum midi file say for my kick drum and bring the resulting midi file into Cakewalk, the tempo map really doesn't match Cakewalk's tempo map. It definitely has a tempo map, I can see it in SD3. But it drifts from the main tempo map in Cakewalk. What could I be doing wrong? (The SD3 tempo map doesn't seem to have as much detailed resolution. If CW reads 125.15bpm, SD3 seems to round off the number to 125bpm. Is that the issue? Not fine enough resolution or something? Any help appreciated. Thanks! Jono

Well, I'm not going to apologize for using the word soundcard. ? And yes, I suppose I'm old. Anyhow, the ASIO panel (A button located in Cakewalk's preferences) has always opened THE SOUND INTERFACE'S settings page. It is no longer doing that. I was curious if anyone had noticed that change. I imagine is has to do with the UAD update. Jono

Hey there. After a recent update of my UAD software, clicking on "ASIO panel" in preferences no longer opens the soundcard properties. Wondered if anyone else experienced that? Please let me know , if so! Thanks Jono

Sorry > The "band Lab Assistant", launched from Windows. It has a login button but goes to a blank screen. It used to go to another screen where you could update etc.

Hi, curious, when I open Bandlab on my computer, a screen opens but it just sits there and doesn't go to a login screen. Any reason for this? Thanks Jono

Band lab doesn't seem to want to open or go to login screen. Is it down? Thanks JG
