Thanks MS.... Is that Guinness your drinking?

In CbyB I was able to drag and drop an audio clip onto a midi track and it would get converted to midi This is not working in latest Free sonar. Is Melodyne used in the conversion process ? as ive not installed this yet or better yet another checkbox hidden away in the bowels

Thanks Colin That did the trick . Its not an option Ive ever amended so Im guessing its either new in Sonar or the default action was changed Thanks everyone who chiped in

Does the new 'Cakewalk Sonar' not have the ability to have more than one project open at the same time like 'Cakewalk by Bandlab' did or have I missed something somewhere

There's a couple of things I want to change but cant seem to find 1. Screenshot shows '(Untitled)' . . . . not sure what actually it is that is untitled 2. qwertyuiop - How can I change that to something useful

Trying to drag & drop midi from Monarch Kit in Kontakt 8 into Sonar but does not work Ive seen it done by streamers who are using other DAWs and the Monarch GUI tells you to do this Is there a setting

I was wrong . . . . . . For some reason you have to chagne the drum map to GM for the midi to play back correctly Who knew ... well me obviously

Midi files imported from 'The Monarch Kit into CbyB are playing the wrong kit piece/articulation Is a Midi Drum map required to fix this issue If yes any ideas where I could get one

Used touchdaw in the past but couldnt get the free one to work . I was mainly using it to input different CC data for orchestral libraries Is there any alternative??

Brave kindly generated this when asked the above question . . . Method 1: Global Setting Go to Preferences > Customization > Plugin Settings. Scroll down to the Instrument section. etc ....... The customization section has no 'Instrument' section ! How is this done in CbyB ? Thanks for answering !

Excellent ..... I tried ALT as well as CTRL when scrolling with the mouse button but wasnt aware of a keyboard option.... Thanks

Chrome, Brave & Edge Brave is my preferred browser so Ill see If I can find out how its done

There's an area between the Track and Clips pane that shows differently depending on track type. You can left click on this and move up and down to Zoom in and out of the clip also double clicking on this area on an Audio track restorse back to some sefaul. My question is can this action be performed on multiple audio tracks at the same time ?

I dont think this is a 'Me' issue as I've tried on multiple PC's and browsers ..... but who knows ???? The online documentation has no images in it ..... sort of https://legacy.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Introduction.24.html There's a place holder where the image should be and if you right click and select 'Load Image' option nothing happens but if you select the 'Open in New Tab' option the image is downloaded and displayed As Marvin Gaye sang .... 'What's Going On'

Thanks for your time Jonathan That worked a treat !!!

I've been using the process outlined in http://forum.cakewalk.com/Startgt-New-From-Template-Custom-Icons-m3415439.aspx To create Icons for templates Ive added in the start screen Its not something I do often and when Ive tried it today its not worked. Has the process changed or am I missing something else

Just reinstalled BBC S.O. Discover & downloaded Patrick Wichrowski's template. (thanks for the work Patrick) Is there a resource for Orchestral Sample Library templates for Cakewalk ?

That in itself is an answer so I'll take it

I skimmed through through the 32 page thread but gave up !!! I guess as it stands the answer is .... "We don't know "..... Suck it and see

Greetings... So with the arrival of 'Next' & 'Sonar' what will happen with CbyB My understanding is that I will be able to continue to use CbyB as its already installed but say I get a new system will i be able to get access to the old CbyB installation files or is it at this point where a will have to look at paying for this software ?? Thanks for any help . . .

If ive understood the countless DAW videos I've watched on YT then More cores is better if your composing Orchestral or Hybrid orchestral music and Single core speed is much more important for other types of music Am I right in assuming the I5 is the better option (I generally write songs in the 'Any other type of music' category i5-13500 Processor, 14 P Cores , 6 E Cores, Pcore Base Frequency 2.5 GHz i7-12700 Processor, 6 P Cores, 8 Ecores, PCore Base Frequency 2.1 Ghz

So what is the better for music production i5-13500 Processor, 14 P Cores , 6 E Cores, Pcore Base Frequency 2.5 GHz i7-12700 Processor, 6 P Cores, 8 Ecores, PCore Base Frequency 2.1 Ghz Its a moot point if purchasing from Chillblast as their music production PC only offers the i5

I'm based in UK and looking for a reasonable site/company to build this for me . . . . any suggestions

Thanks for all your thoughts chaps Historically the stuff ive written in the past would fall into the '24-track song-writing demos' category (20 ish VST instrument ) but in the last year Ive written a few 'Orchestral ' tracks (30 kontakt) instruments all on a 6th Gen I-7 I just want to have a better machine than I currently have. So if my old system can deal with what Ive already done then a new one should be a great improvement The question then becomes do I do What Jack did and buy the biggest CPU I can but rarely use it to full capacity ? ..... or or go the I-7 route which will be less costly !!

I have a fair number of questions but don't know where to start...? I'll put some context here though . I am about to retire and fancy a newer Windows based PC to make music with. I will only be recording myself so my needs are modest compared to some. And whilst it would be nice to have 13th gen i9 64 mb ram etc my first question is what's going to suit my needs But a little more specificity to my questions What cpu should I start with
