Check that your MIDI track do not have any CC7 events in there. Select all, then open Event List view. Maybe filter to display just controller events.

What does https://speedtest.net tell you that your speed is? I am on 50 megabits per seconds ethernet wired internet connection and, for me, it only takes a few minutes.

Define “redoing my computer.”..... On a fresh install of Windows 10 and after patching it, but before installing any third party security software, you should be able get Cakewalk by Bandlab up and running via Bandlab Assistant. The only other issue I can think of is a poor or unstable (or slow) internet connection. I am on a stable, ethernet wired 50 megabit per second internet connection and I have never had an issue installing or updating Cakewalk by Bandlab, ever.. I am on Australian English with my system locale set to Australia When Bandlab Assistant downloads the current Cakewalk by Bandlab installer, during the installation, it’s in the following folder: %appdata%\bandlab-assistant\Downloads Note: This file gets deleted after a successful install of Cakewalk by Bandlab. At the time of my post, the name of this file is “Cakewalk_by_BandLab_Setup_27.01.0.098.exe” and is exactly 560,644,752 bytes in size. (I always keep a backup of this file)

I have MIDI WRK files that I did as far back as 1998 (in Cakewalk Pro Audio 9) that open (and play) fine in Cakewalk by Bandlab (all versions to the latest)

Are the AIR and SONiVOX issues with Windows 10 only with the installers themselves or the fact that the plugins are on your Windows 10 system?

And then there is this from Plugin Boutique tech support after requesting the installers... "Due to a severe technical issue with the Windows versions of various AIR Music Technology & SONiVOX software, we have made the decision to remove the affected products from the Plugin Boutique site whilst we wait for the updated installers which will fix this problem. As a result of this, we recommend that Windows 10 users DO NOT download or install any AIR Music Technology/SONiVOX software. "

Maybe try temporarily disabling ExpressVPN On a properly configured Windows 10 machine with zero issues, Bandlab Assistant should work properly.

I've done a lot of country tracks that use pedal steels. Therefore, I too, sometimes only need to bend one note while leaving the others untouched. As per previous posts, I just use a second pedal steels track to bend that one note.

That would affect all notes. Also, moving would achieve an abrupt change. I think the op wants to achieve a smooth glide from one note to another using pitch bend. However, if you do that to an instrument on a single track, all notes bend to the same range (usually 2 semitones up, 2 semitones down) Some instruments (a pedal steel for example) bend just one string of a chord. They also may bend one note, one semitone, and another note, 2 semitones. That's why I suggested inserting the instrument (a koto kaguya in the case of the OP) in both Kontact slots so that each instrument instance can have independent pitch bends.

What are you needed to know. Are you needing to know how to place the same instrument in two Kontact slots so you can adjust the pitch bends of each, independently of each other?

Then it looks like you can just load the same instrument into more than 1 slot. Then simply set the MIDI Channels of each slot accordingly. I don't use Kontakt, but I reckon that's you'd do it. I have the same dilemma with pedal steels so I just use more than one pedal steel track to get independent pitch bends on each string.

This depends entirely on the synth are you using? Which synth are you using? If the synth you're using is not multitimbral (can trigger different sounds on multiple channels), then one way is to use separate instances of the synth for the notes that you need to bend to a different range.

The issues only appear with users who have a very specific configuration. For most people, myself included, this update installed without a problem. If you have waves12 , then there is a file that the WavesLocalServer process hold open, preventing Cakewalk from modifying that file. Either kill the WavesLocalServer process, or reboot prior to install an you'll be fine. This is a bug with waves12 (that waves are looking into) not Cakewalk by Bandlab.

I don't have this unit but is it possible that it’s because they are listed in pairs?

Because of the effort of you and your team, I believe Cakewalk by Bandlab has become THE best DAW to date.... The expediency at which issues get sorted puts a lot of other manufacturers to shame.....

These are preview hotfixes. They are released to address specific issues that the Bakers believe are serious enough to warrant their release. Use the list of fixes in the release notes to help you determine whether to install them or not. If you are not affected by anything listed in the hotfix, then you could hold off until the next pubic release. That being said, I have installed all preview hotfixes to date (I'm now on 2021.1 Build 93) and I have never had an issue with them.

You can actually rename CC controllers globally - but they are just that, global. The idea to have specific CC name mappings per VSTi would be excellent. While Bezier curves for CCs are not possible at this time, the PRV transform tool is probably the closest we have at the moment.

Thanks for this. It makes a huge difference. Any chance the intensity can be adjusted (Either in prefs or registry)

I'm not really sure and I would be guessing at this stage as I do not use this specific equipment. I think what you you might want to do is contact support https://www.enttec.com/support/

You're almost there. Right click on anything there with the words “Hub” , and go to properties > power management. Then deselect “Allow the computer to turn of this device to save power”

It depends what the drivers are for. I don't use Dell hardware so I can only assume that if that page says it it up to date, then you should be all good. As far as the DMXis sometimes losing communication with Cakewalk by BandLab. It's probably more a case of the DMXis losing communication on a hardware level. Check that the USB power management is disabled - this is done in the device manager properties for the USB Root hubs (start+ run devmgmt.msc)

You might want to consider completely uninstalling "TinyWall" altogether. The built in Windows firewall is more than adequate for the task these days.

You might want to get this issue sorted before troubleshooting the issue with the DMXi - they could actually be related.... When you say “downloading latest drivers”, which specific drivers are you having issues with?
