Can it be assumed you are using: · The latest version of UVI Workstation (Which, at the time of this reply, is 3.1.15) · The latest drivers for your Radeon 780M https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html

Hey, I am with about the old gear thing. I still, to this day, still a (circa 1999) Yamaha SW1000XG card in another PC (for current paying projects). This has pretty much made me immune to the loss of TTS-1 fiasco Roland created.

As a test, I signed out of BL and then signed in. The sign in page still asked for my Bandlab credentials as it normally does. This only difference this time is a 2FA challenge (which I am OK with). I proceeded and I was back in.

Cakewalk should be able to accept MIDI dumps. Just make sure that “System Exclusive” is selected in Preferences - MIDI - Playback and Recording For for details, see: http://legacy.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=CakewalkSonar&language=3&help=SYSX.06.html#1113268

Even with Freebies, one has to decide if you really need it. In my case, my final decision to pass on the UAD 1176 freebie hinged on the fact that I have IK Multimedia’s Black 76 (part of Tracks 5) and Arturia’s Comp FET-76 (Both emulations of the The 1176 compressor).

I have done a similar thing with the Native Instruments daemon service. Normally I set the service to Manual and stopped. I have made an Autohotkey script that open starts the daemon service and then runs Native access. It sets the daemon service to stopped when I exit Native access. The script also resets to state to manual if an update to Native access resets the service back to automatic.

I do not think you will get any easier than SHIFT drag vertically for a move or CTRL + SHIFT drag vertically for a copy.

This is one thing I would like inverted. Holding CTRL should activate "automatic placement slots"

Based on the demo that you can download, there is one issue that would be a showstopper for me. Even though the articulation maps are triggered using Note Events, the Chase Mode is set to CCs (which is the default when creating one). These articulation maps will not chase unless you set the articulation map’s Chase Mode to either Note or Full (which is what I would have used). Unless one knows how to bulk edit 12000 artmap text files, changing “160000 articulations” would be a very long job. Also, it would be handy to be able to purchase just the maps you actually need. Note: Chase mode means that if you start playback under an articulation map, Cakewalk/Sonar searches back for, and sends, that articulation map Event so that the correct articulation is applied before notes start playing.

If you do the following: · In Cakewalk, create a MIDI track, enable its input echo and set its MIDI channel to 1 · Route that MIDI track to the M50 · Put some notes in the MIDI track via PRV. · Playback those notes Do you get any sound from the M50? If you do the following: · In Cakewalk, create a MIDI track, enable its input echo · Set that MIDI track’s input to the M50 , Omni. · Set that MIDI track’s output to the M50 · Play some keys on the M50 Does the MIDI Meter show activity and do you get sound from the M50?

And when you record into the SIT track, you get no MIDI events therein, is that correct. Also, if the sound is coming from the m50, and you want that going to Cakewalk, you would have to connect an audio cable from the M50 to an audio input of your Focusrite. Then create an Audio track, into which you can record to. On the M50 editor screen in (Cakewalk), what do you see if you click “Global” (or even “Utility”). Any where to select MIDI ports?

On the M50 Editor MIDI track, can you expand the input (where is says “OMNI”). Personally, I would set this specifically to the M50 1 Keyboard Are you absolutely sure that the actual sound is coming from the VST itself, not the M50 itself.

Can we please have a screenshot of your Preferences - MIDI - Devices screen.

Full screen screenshot please (not a phone photo) - including Inspector of the MIDI track that you have routed to the plugin.

That automation lane looks like it should work. That image is not showing me a ramp down shape. What happens if you add another node further down and then move that node to zero (thus creating a down ramp)? Another option, if the plugin responds to velocity, you could always simple edit the note velocities using the PRV Transform Tool to reduce the velocities of the notes with each subsequent hit. You have to be careful with this though, because with some synths, velocity can affect more than simple volume. There are actually many ways to achieve a fade out of a sound in Cakewalk. I had needed a fade out on many instruments or sounds in many projects and I have never had any issues.
