Command Center offline for me as well. Uh oh...

Thanks JohnnyV. I'll try the custom install option and try to get all the old goodies in place before the big changes come.

Thanks scook! I did a search and did not find that topic - sorry for the redundancy! I'll test it out. With all the changes happening want to make sure I get access to all the older stuff I paid for before they possibly disappear...

I bought licenses for many Cakewalk/Sonar versions over the years and have access to them through my Command Center account. Unfortunately, I did not know about the best install sequence (older versions first / CbB last) so that you get access to all the plugins that came with the older versions - and I'm too far in to consider a fresh install of Windows 10/11. Question: Would it be possible to install the older versions in a Windows Hyper-V Virtual Machine, export the plugins/FX (or copy the relevant DLL, etc. files), then import them into CbB? Has anyone done/tried that?

Ed, I see your point and hope that is not the case. However, even if they opt for a realistic price (and NOT the dreaded subscription model) for future upgrades I'd be OK with that (i.e., you don't have to upgrade unless you want the new features). As we all know, nothing is truly "free". I'd be happy to support the Bakers - they've done really great work on this great DAW.

They are amazing! Makes me either want to practice - or give up. :^)

Spend less time buying, playing with plugins and more time practicing and writing. I am sooo guilty of neglecting the advice I just gave…

Thanks Tom. I did more testing and I get the same results for #2, some dropouts, some not. I guess I'll just live with it and see if the new update changes anything.

DeeringAmps, I'm thinking it might be a Cakewalk issue. Tried these experiments as well: > Drag a midi clip from Cakewalk to EZD3 - audio engine drops out. >Drag a midi clip from Cakewalk to my PC Desktop area - audio engine drops out?! > Drag the midi clip from Desktop back into Cakewalk - no drop out. > Drag the midi clip from Desktop into EZD3 drop zone (below Tap2Find) - no drop out. Can you replicate this? That would rule out my PC, midi clip, etc. as the culprit.

Thanks Promidi! I don't use Firefox but I'll see if there is something similar for Edge or Chrome. I still find it strange that the topic Author is not clearly identified in the thread.

Whenever I drag midi from Cakewalk to EZD3 midi drop zone (below Tap2Find) Cakewalk's audio engine drops out. Also happens with EZ Bass. Not sure if it is a Cakewalk issue or a Toontrack issue. If I drag a midi file from my Windows 10 PC to the midi drop zone the audio engine does not drop out, so I think it may be a Cakewalk issue? Anyone else experience this? Can anyone else re-create this on your system? If not then I know it has something to do with my setup.

I think Moises is pretty good for what it does at the price point. Would love to hear from others who've found similar/better solutions.

Moises does track separation and chord detection of audio

Send me the WAV or MP3. I'll analyze it with Moises and send you the chords - and only charge $7.50 (half price!). Sorry, but no flashlight :^) But seriously folks - I've had good success with Moises (moises.ai). Pretty nifty. No affiliation - I just like it. I'm sure there are others - please chime in.

Maybe I'm missing something - and maybe this is in the wrong forum area (since it's not Cakewalk 'improvement' feedback), so moderators please move if appropriate. When reading threads I don't see the Author of the post identified (like on most other forums). As I read the thread, I end up having to scroll back to the original post to see who the author is. Could be my error (not unusual :^) If the post Author is indeed not identified on the sidebar I'd like to request that as a feature added to the forums.

My feeling is that there is going to be a truly noteworthy update released in the near future that blows our collective socks off. "Skill is the child of patience" (Obi-Wan Kenobi)

There are so many unusually gifted people on this planet... See attached WMV file - he is great! Question - How do you embed a video into a post? I only have this as a WMV file. I see a "player" screen when I am setting up the post, but it does not make it to the post as useable/playable. IPlayPianoWithMyBalls.wmv

Must be a really big announcement since the "Any news on update" thread has totally vanished. Uh oh, since I referenced that thread this one might be headed to the same black hole...?

Is this happening to everyone or just me? (Note: Bapu, nothing to do with you, it's just that yours was the only notification left in my Notifications dropdown). Note: The referenced Topic has disappeared... the plot thickens...

Thanks Mark! I missed that sneaky Chevron hiding out on the right (in plain sight :^). That gives me all the options as well. Looks like both yours and DeeringAmps solution works. Thank you both - my Cakewalk education continues!

Mark, if I set source to "Entire Mix" I only get my Focusrite in Sources: DeeringAmps, that works - and you're sooo right - not intuitive at all.

I must be missing something obvious... Trying to bounce/combine multiple audio tracks into 1 stereo track - but I keep getting just a complete duplicate of all the selected tracks! What am I doing wrong / not understanding? > I have a test song with 16 tracks (2 vocal, 14 instrument). Want to mix the 15 instrument tracks down to 1 stereo track, resulting in 2 vocal tracks and 1 instrument track (the 14 mixed down tracks). 1. Select all the instrument tracks 2. Go to Tracks/Bounce to Track(s) I've got Track 17 as the destination and, to me, that means all get mixed down to one track - Track 17 (ie, it doesn't say new Tracks, it says new Track). But the result is 14 added tracks (17-30)? I know I can export to a WAV and then re-import. What am I missing?

Thanks all! I ran across this on Ebay. Not sure if it is all the K2500 sounds or not (or even if it is legit). Seems so, as the company has been around a while. Anyone have any idea if this would be worth the minor $10 investment? Kurzweil K2500 Synthesizer Sample Library: 3,800 High Quality WAV Samples | eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/275085394293

Thanks for the helpful advice. Never heard of SampleRobot - will have to give it a try. Makes me think that there might be samples of the K2500x already out there. I will poke around the web adn see if they already exist.
