Updated, painless actually, and it now works fine thanks a lot!!

Ah! No I hate updating it makes me nervous but guess I need to! A better error message from them would help though.

Nope! Did this but still wont save work. I suppose I now need to get help from the Bandlab people. To be fair they are very helpful ( or were, its a while since I e mailed them) but now I have work to do urgently for my band and cant do a thing. Not good. It may be free but if it doesnt work then thats not relevant.

Thanks but no, this doesn't work. I'll wait to see what their support people say, they are pretty helpful, but I think we all know where this is heading!££££$$$$$

Havent been on CW for a while and as usual it needs activating. Followed the support e mail and logged in from inside cakewalk, but nope it wont work. Now I'm stuck and need to save my work for tomorrow. This is really really annoying, I'm not au fait with the controversy about CW's future, but can anyone tell me whats going on?? No wonder people are looking elsewhere!

Thanks John, I was coming to that conclusion, i.e. new mixer with a monitor send on each channel. My setup is very modest ( as are my fees!) so I was hoping to avoid buying a new mixer but I reckon its needed. For a simple 1 guitar, 1 mike, 1 keyboard setup and a monitor out to in ears do you have a recommendation? Years of being in bands and leaving it to the sound man have ended up with me sadly lacking in knowledge. Another lesson learnt too late!

Hi thanks for replying it’s appreciated ! I’ll try this this afternoon

Hi all, I know this isn't really DAW related but everyone here ( not me!) is so knowledgeable I thought I'd give it a try. I've recorded backing tracks using CW as my DAW , export to MP3 for my iPad, and panned the click track over to the left, all other tracks ( stems) to the right. So when I play my in ear monitors need to here the click and the track but not the front of house audience. I can do this on my Peavey Mixer as it has a monitor mix for every input. So faders off for the front of house stops the click track being hear front of house. Monitor for the click track to in ears can only be heard by me. Its usually channel 5 , using a splitter lead out. But my little Yamaha MG82 just has a single monitor knob which controls everything. I attach a pic. How do I get the monitor output to play click and backing track but NOT the front of house speakers? As I said not specifically Cakewalk related really but I know someone out there in CW land can help!

Hi all, I have a backing track which for some reason has a long gap of no sound at the end, which I need to trim. But on the DAW there's nothing there, all the recorded tracks have ended. How to do I trim this?

Never heard of drum replacer? Its a plugin I assume?

I know I've asked this before, but; I use backing tracks from Karaoke Version. Their click track sounds too harsh on ballads so I need a hi hat instead, to follow the click track. Tried doing this live manually as an audio track with my Juno but it wanders and is difficult to correct. I need a simple(!) way of matching the two and then I will mute the original click track. I know helpful posters have shown me ways before but I am USELESS at stuff like this, is there a simple way to do this?

Sorted thanks, dont even know how I did that in the first place!

Tried that didnt work!

As usual a novice question see screenshot. I did nothing Guvnor! But opened up the track and it was all shrank and I've tried everything to no avail. Help please I know its a dumb thing to ask but searching will take forever! I've obviously hit some button by mistake aaagh!

All sorted, thanks all
