Sometimes when a certain project using certain plugins is closed, the Cakewalk process remains. Then when I attempt to relaunch Cakewalk, it won’t. When that happens, I use a script I have written that forcibly ends the Cakewalk process. This active line in the script that does this is the following. wmic process where name="Cakewalk.exe" call terminate Yes, I could use the taskkill command, but I have found that sometimes that does not actually kill the Cakewalk process.

Do any plugins (synth or effect) have MIDI out enabled?

Updates are also about new features - many of which have been added to CbB since the Splat days. Very few of these publicly released CbB updates have ever given me issues. And on the rare occasion that there were small issues, they were always quickly resolved by the Bakers.

This is why I prefer controllers in PRV controller lanes. Much more control. I even have written CAL scripts that convert linear changes to curves and some that adjust the contours of those curves.

I would have thought that, because Falcon is not multi-threaded, you would be suing Falcon more (That is if any lawyer would accept the case)

The version numbers (among other things) of any of AAS plugins are found by clicking on those two double down arrows near the top centre of the AAS plugin GUI.

What is your source? If audio, then just use a tremolo effect. Meldaproduction’s Mtremolo comes to mind. If a MIDI instrument - depends on the instrument - it may have this feature built in. Or you could map a CC to the right parameters.

Yeah, that works. It’s still a bug though. No where in the CbB help file does it say about having to have the png file in the Project Templates folder for it to show up in the Start screen. There is no such requirement for CbB Project files - the PNG file shows up even if the PNG file is not present. The image data is embedded in the project file itself as it is in the Project template file. I guess this will be fixed in the pad version when it’s released.

I think the driver that comes with the Behringer UMC22 is actually a version of ASIO4ALL. (Some please correct me if I am wrong on this) Personally, I would ditch the Behringer UMC22 and get an audio interface that comes with proper ASIO drivers (EG a Focusrite Scarlett series).

I tried it here as well. Could not get it to work with a template. Projects work fine, just not project templates. I even tried loading the BBCSO PNG file from the template zip file - nada! Must be a bug. (can't even try a previous version of CbB) FWIW you could log a ticket with CW support. Mind you, I don't hold much hope, as this version of CbB might not get any more fixes.

I just tried it here and it worked fine. This is with Cakewalk by Bandlab 2023.09 Build 62. I copied the BBCSO Discover.cwt to my Projects Templates folder as defined in Preferences - File - Folder Locations > Templates Enabled the start screen (I do not have this enabled for my day to day). Closed and reopened CbB. The “New” section indeed showed the correct image for the BBCSO Discover template. I think the asterisk doesn't appear in the title bar to show that the file has been edited is probably because the same image is already in the template and technically, and file has not changed.

What have you tried so far? What driver mode, sample rate, bit depth and buffer size are you using. Are you using a proper audio interface that comes with its own native ASIO drivers (not ones that are actually wrappers like ASIO4ALL). If you have antivirus software, have you excluded all Cakewalk folders. Have you decrapified your New PC - many new PCs have unnecessary software installed by the vendor that can (and should) be removed. Can it be assumed that you have performed all Windows update and updated all of your hardware drivers? (Use manufacturer’s website for this - Don’t use Windows Update). If relevent for your CPU, have you disabled Core Parking - also set CPU min and max to 100% in power settings. In fact, disable any power saving measure you can find. Just because it’s a new PC, don’t assume this has been done. Personally, I think it's either a driver issue or sample rate issue. Others more experienced that I am will likely chime in with better suggestions.

If you have fresh installed Cakewalk by Bandlab 2023.09 Build 62, then the full installer will be in the %userprofile%\Downloads\Cakewalk folder. The exact name is Cakewalk_by_BandLab_Setup_29.09.0.062.exe and the exact size is 589,145,424 bytes Also, I hope your guess is wrong about that price - seems a it bit high (especially with the way the Aussie dollar is going).

$US29.00 for me. Does need a dark mode. The GUI is way too bright! (Like the Augmented Series)

A choice of both would be nice....... (like NI’s Massive X)

Have you tried reinstalling using the updated Cakewalk Command Centre? If you need a password reset of your Cakewalk account, flick an email to support@cakewalk.com

And here was me hoping for a dark theme for these things.....

And if you must still use them, even MP3 files can be encoded at 48khz.

Which is why I have told Windows Updates to keep its hand off the drivers. See: https://www.techilife.com/exclude-drivers-from-windows-quality-updates/

Same goes for the SW1000XG (installed in a 2nd PC controlled via MIDI) I have here.

While I do not use my MIDI controller as a control surface, I have seen other posts that seem to indicate that any MIDI port that is use for your control surface should not be used as a MIDI track’s input MIDI port. Some MIDI controllers even have two MIDI ports - one that can be used for a control surface and the other as a MIDI track’s input MIDI port. I know my PCR-800 does. You might want to go a head and post this question as a separate post.

When I said controller, I actually meant the Continuous Controller MIDI Events (CCs) in the MIDI track that is being routed to your VSTis. I use a single external MIDI playback device that is multitimbral. Each part responds to its own MIDI channel. Each MIDI track that is routed to this external MIDI playback device is set to a spefici MIDI channel. Even when I am using VSTi synths, I still set each MIDI track that is routed to said VSTi to a specific MIDI channel - especially if the VSTi is multitimbral (like Sampletank or UVI Workstation for example). I try to avoid using “none” and I definitely avoid using OMNI anywhere.

Yes, that’s the setting I use. When I start playback after a note start but before its end, the chase function searches back to play that note. For me, this works for VSTis as well as outboard gear. Maybe some VSTis need time to initialise before playing a note Are you using lot's of controllers? Are there some where many controllers are happening at the same time?
