Kick should always (in most cases) be mono/straight up the gut. If your hearing your Kick float around it could be a phase issue. When you bounce the kick and snare to audio tracks, do you still have the midi (Addictive drums) tracks too ? Could also be a plug in floating it around.

Not in the Track view but I had a similar issue that still pops up once in a while. Which leads me to believe its not Cakewalk, but my mouse or my midi controller (sending data while im editing). In my case I saw it in the PRV while dragging notes, either notes got stuck or didn't copy at all. A reboot of Cakewalk cures the problem every time. @lapasoa Do you have any midi devices ?

I've run into similar walls trying resurrect old projects. Sometimes its better to cut your losses then put money/resources into a dinosaur. This is also another great reason to back up all your Midi files in a separate folder. A lot of great suggestions on this thread. Hope you can make it back.

It would be for me as well. But only because I still have sonar installed on this same PC. Cakewalk and Sonar share certain folders. Uninstalling Cakewalk could hose some of Sonars presets.

Have you tried bumping up the midi buffer from 250 to 500 ?

It most definitely is a move forward. Firewire is being phased out in favor of USB 2+3 and also Thunderbolt. I cant speak for the 18I20 but I've owned a 18I8 for over 4 years now and its been rock solid. I've never even had to reinstall the drivers since moving to a better PC build 3 years ago (Intel I7 8700). Most of what I've read here on the forums have been positive in conjunction with Cakewalks Bandlab.

Your phone might not have a codec to play the wav file. Thus it just sounds white noise over your phone speaker. IDK. I do know WMP and VLC are not great for dissecting mixes, only for a basic listen.

Same here, probably because we were raised using multitrack tape and this seems to be the direct approach. I am a huge fan of Roy Thomas Baker and his huge background vocals (Producer for "Queen", The Cars", "The Darkness"). That is where I use Overwrite mode just as Lynn mentioned... To stack vocals.

ya if it was 48 to begin with and you uploaded at 48 I could see why, but your gaining nothing by uploading a 44.1 to a 48.

Some how I knew this was coming. Here's a former Cakewalk user complaining of Lag in Cubase https://www.steinberg.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=127656 It can happen in any DAW. You failed to list GPU specs. I would start there. I have never had an issue what so ever changing tabs in the multi dock but then again, I've never tried 1000 tracks, not even for "educational" purposes. I see you made this video a few weeks ago.. is this the monitor you are using ? If that is the monitor you are using, refresh rate could be part of the problem.

I would also find this useful. Might be an easy fix too.. The pop up marker window could add a color box to choose a color from.

If you have a project with multiple tempo changes, I suggest to create a project template. it will store all tempo changes. The template might only be good for 1 project but it beats doing it all by hand.

Yes SHIFT still does that. Holding CNTL+SHIFT will copy/prevent the clip from moving L/R. It will also allow you to move the clip up/down to another track without moving so make sure your first move is from L/R.

I thought "X" was bound to toggle Aim asst ON/OFF

Great mix, not blown away by the mastering though, sounds like something's could have been cleaned up and other things brought out more. Then again, your choice for a mastering engineer (if you call him that) would have been my last choice ever. Depending on time restraints with my own projects, I might try to take a quick shot at it. That first song "Bitter"... Wow great song.

Im going to say it as well, 700 tracks is a lot of tracks for any daw to handle. Each time you open the Console view, you are asking Cakewalk to repaint every graphic, every color and all this with moving parts (Meters, Faders, Pan, exc). I wish I had a solution, I use max 50-70 tracks per project and views are pretty fast moving here. You might try consolidating some of these tracks.

This is almost always a plug in issue. However you might be able to bypass this (direct route to the plug in) by disengaging any input echo on any tracks, this includes midi tracks. In other words...got input echo on ?

Are any of you experiencing this problem using Mix recall ??? Because theoretically, the only thing that can changes VST presets in a .CWP is mix recall. I personally have never had this problem before. But maybe Mix recall doesn't like some Cakewalk users.

It should be right next to the Console view tab if its docked. See photo below = by right clicking I can "Undock". Can you upload a photo for us ? Zoomed

There should be a tab at the lower left hand corner. they are your multidock tabs. Right click on the Video tab and select "Undock". Drag it to your other monitor and call it a day.

That's why Cakewalk gave you AUX tracks. That's exactly what they are for.

Best comment of the day

Yes but you don't have to go fishing through 3 or 4 tabs. This is exactly what Screensets were made for. I leave Screenset #1 for basics This is where Screenset #2 takes place. This is where # 3 takes over. This way you can press numbers on the Keyboard 1-10 to cycle through smaller views. I've studied this Multidock Tab thing for many years trying to find the most productive way to view/work. the Screensets are a great tool. But we all work differently, so what might be good for me, might not work for you.

Totally off topic to the OP. If you have a request for Cakewalk put it here. Though I wouldn't hold my breath on this one as its been discussed to overkill.

I would use the split tool as well. Highlight the clip and place the NowTime at the points which you want to Split. Press "S" as a keyboard shortcut. Delete the portions you don't need (you'll still have the slip edit content incase you need to roll out/roll in). Grab the ends of the Splits to add a gradual fade in/out and call it a day. These are basic tools we all use everyday in the editing world.
