Thanks again John. Not at my Music PC until tomorrow but will take a look. Note: Choosing any input (other than Default) does not help.

Thanks John! Problem is I can't find any reference to the Loopback as an option. I tried uninstall/reinstall of OBS but the Loopback is just not there. Not sure what else to try. Cakewalk is set to 48/24, but some test Projects load at 44.1/24. OBS is also set to 48. OBS doesn't record Audio for either.

Note - also tried to add an Audio Input Capture and Audio Output Capture, but they did not help. I hate being a newbie!!

I'm obviously doing something wrong (as usual :^) I'm new to OBS. Installed it and can record, with sound, from a browser. But can't get OBS to record output from Cakewalk. I have an 8i6, 3rd Gen. I added the Loopback (following a Focusrite tutorial) and it shows in Cakewalk. If I play a project in Cakewalk I see output on the Loopback port in Focusrite Control In OBS, if I capture the Cakewalk Window and look at the Desktop Audio options, I only see "Focusrite USB Audio" - not sure if I should see the Loopback as an option(?). If so, no idea how to get it to show up. If I pick the Focusrite USB Audio and play the Cakewalk project, no sound is captured. Any idea what I am doing wrong? :^(

You can undock / float almost anything. Does this help?

Do you mean the photo I included ?

I posted this on another Topic and thought it might help others so I'm posting here. The referenced (free) utility works GREAT for me - hope it helps others! Here is a link to the utility: https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/persistentwindows.html See this post for more details:

I've always had issues with Windows not staying in place after monitors are turned off, especially when it's a mix of Display Port and HDMI. I have 3 monitors (actually 3 4k TVs). I am on Win10Pro - not sure how much better Win11 is. This program has been absolutely GREAT for me. Works like a charm. All Windows are ALWAYS where I left them. See this link (note: MajorGeeks is a well-known and respected site): https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/persistentwindows.html

Solved. The track interleave was set to Mono. When I set it to Stereo all worked as expected. No credit to me - posted the same question at Cakewalk by Bandlab - Creative Sauce Group on Facebook and got and quick, accurate answer. I've got a lot to learn - thanks to everyone who visits and comments on these Forums!

I've been testing out Waves Harmony and noticed that panning within the plugin does not work - there's no audible difference, even if I pan hard L or R. I then tried some other plugins - Waves Doubler2, Nectar4 Voices. Panning does nothing on them either. The voice always sound centered. If I pan the actual track L or R it works fine. Am I doing something wrong? Is this a Cakewalk anomaly or issue? Don't have another DAW installed to test. Can anyone test and advise if you have the same issue?

Why did it take so long to fix??

Anyone have any knowledge regarding this comment from Slipping into Sanity? I can't find any reference to an "EDITION" on the copyright.gov website.

Think about how many songs that have NOT been written due to all this back and forth on questions that have no answers... ?

I have the same issue and get the same exact message. I use 1 Samsung and 2 Sony 4k TVs as monitors. Only solution I've found (as mentioned) is to disable the Intel audio devices so only my Focusrite 8i6 handles audio. Definitely think this is a Cakewalk bug that needs to be addressed.

Jim, I'll head over to your site later today and sign up for some consulting time - it will be well worth it!

Bleh. Having same issue as last time I tried a dedicated Video Card. Not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or need to adjust? I installed the Gigabyte RTX 3060 card and installed minimum stuff using their installer. Even did a re-install using the NVCleanInstall option (thanks Jack Stoner). LatencyMon showing NVIDIA as the culprit. Samsung and one of the Sony TV's are connected to HDMI ports on GTX 3060. One Sony is connected via an active Display Port to HDMI cable (all TVs have HDMI only and GTX3060 has 2 HDMI and 2 DP). All displays look great and are at native resolutions (3840x2160, 60Hz). Samsung is in Landscape and Sony's are in Portrait. I'm not gamer, etc. and am not at all savvy when it comes to GPU's. Any suggestions? Should I disable on-board graphics (or does that even mater)? Using a pretty powerful PC, dedicated to just running Cakewalk.

Yeah, saw that - thanks.. I've used Gigabyte motherboards in the past and they worked well so I'll give them a shot.

Thanks HIBI and Jim! The MSI that HIBI mentioned does seem to slow the fans at lower temperatures. I'm going to trust Jim's judgement and go with a Gigabyte card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060. It has a lot of reviews that specifically mention how quiet it is.

Jim, is there a specific card you would recommend? I am not a gamer - this is a PC dedicated to Cakewalk. Need support for 3 monitors.

Thanks Jim! I am looking specifically at MSI GeForce RTX 3060 12GB GDDR6. It looks like the fans are pretty quiet and speed is adjustable. I've changed my mind on the 2 new TVs. My main Samsung AU8000 has good picture quality so I'm going with (2) 50" Samsung Q60A Series TVs (4k. 60Hz, 3840x2160) - same specs as the AU8000. I was thinking of going up to 120Hz model, but I don't know if that would make any difference as far as Cakewalk display is concerned. Cakewalk seems to render fine on the 60Hz model. Any opinion on 60Hz versus 120Hz?

I'm revamping my setup and will be using (3) 4k TV's as monitors. Main monitor is Samsung 55" 4k UHD AU8000. Thinking about (2) Toshiba 50C350LU 50" TVs as side monitors (flanking the Samsung on left and right in Portrait mode). What is the difference between the various "flavors" of the RTX cards? I'm looking at the RTX 3060 12GB GDRR6 card. Does it matter if it's branded MSI, EVGA, etc.? Is there a better option (RTX 3050, etc.)? I'm note well versed in the nuances of video cards. Not a gamer at all - this setup is strictly for Cakewalk. Side note: Opinions on the quality of the Toshiba TV welcome - I've never owned one...

Moises is fantastic and reasonably priced: https://moises.ai/

Not sure on that one, but there are many folks on this forum that know a lot more about Cakewalk than me :^) - hopefully one will know the answer...

See this discussion and especially the entry by msmcleod. Should solve your problem! https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/topic/27804-piano-roll-view/

Think I said this already, but just to reiterate - many thanks to Jesse, Noel, Mark and all the Staff for staying engaged and providing as much input/details as they can. Don't think you'll find that much direct / hands on involvement from many software companies.
