I a willing to take that risk. I know the workaround so far. I have asked Cakewalk support if the subject of dropping support for CAL scripts has ever been discussed in their development meetings so far. It hasn't.

Another option is to Select All (of a track or the entire project). Then go to the Menu item: Edit | Select | By Filter > Select “None”. Then select Notes, then OK. Now when you Copy, only notes will be copied.

All my MIDI only projects are CbB. The CAL scripts and Studioware panels I have written makes Cakewalk the only choice. I would be lost if Cakewalk ever dropped CAL scripts and Studioware. They speed up my workflow immensely.

In preferences | Audio | Configuration File try adjusting the following: EnableSetThreadIdealProcessor = False MixThreadCount = {number of cores minus 1} You might like to exit Cakewalk by Bandlab, go to the following folder and make a copy of the AUD.INI file before doing this: %appdata%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core

A couple of questions: What audio interface are you using? What driver mode are you using? What is the name of the VSTi you are you using? ASIO is preferred. This is checked with Preferences | Audio | Playback and Recording. My PC is configured as per my signature and I can play VSTis in real-time with out any undesirable delay between key-press and note output.

Usually for “under the bonnet” changes, enhances, bug fixes, optimisations, etc....

I just thought I would mention that the MS Visual C++ runtimes are not included in the regular Windows updates. These have to be updated manually. When you get the error message, is it the installation of the Native access itself that manifests the error message or is it the installation of an NI product itself. If it’s the latter, then one thing you could try is head over to start + run > appwiz.cpl and uninstall the offending application. Once that is done, then attempt the install of same application through Native Access.

Maybe spray a tiny bit of contact cleaner in the pitch controller wheel (definitely not oil based! Not WD40!)

Just used Native Access to download and install FM8. No problems here (PC configured as per signature) This has to be an issue at your end. Try updating your network drivers. Restart your router Try using a wired connection between your PC and your router (ethernet) Is your Windows fully patched Try updating your Vdist runtimes See: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads

We need more info.. Is this a MIDI project or an audio (or a combination)?

I updated to Sampletank 4.16 mid project (risky I know, but I have backups) that has 3 instances of Sampletank 4 (each with a few instruments therein) and I did not experience any crashing or anything like that. It just worked. This is on a PC configured as per my signature.

Sampletank 4 updated to 4.16 Syntronik 2 updated to 2.01 Update via IK Multimedia Product Manager.

Or you can freeze the SIT (that has MIDI data in it ) and then drag the resultant audio to an audio track.

And one other thing I like about it is that there is an ASIO plugin for it to enable ASIO support inside ORBS Studio.

Maybe try renaming your aud.ini file then starting Cakewalk (It will be rebuilt) This file is located here: %appdata%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core I am assuming that you have visually confirmed that you are running the latest graphic drivers. Check the drivers visually using manufacturer's websites rather than via Windows updates.

As you probably know, MIDI is simply data that tells a synthesiser what notes notes to play and what not. Cakewalk can simply open the MIDI files from File | Open. Use this method as this contains tempo information that's in the MIDI file. Importing the MIDI file does not. If you do not have a MIDI port on your PC, Cakewalk should open the MIDI file with the MIDI tracks routed to TTS-1 If you do have a MIDI port on your PC, then your MIDI tracks will be routed to that port. It appears that when you open your MIDI files, the MIDI tracks are not routed to anything, hence the silence when you play back. What you need to do is make sure your MIDI tracks are routed to something that makes a sound, be it a hardware synth connected to a MIDI port on your PC, or a software synth (or VSTi) I did a quick search on YouTube and I believe this video might get you started:

Something has changed. Do you have any 32bit plugins or an plugins tat might have gone into demo mode? What happens if you open the project in Safe mode (Open the project while holding shift) and deselect plugins? Maybe reinstall your Audio interface drivers. Update your graphic drivers.

You can already do this using Task Queues. Task Queues are saved with your project.

The FULL Version of Kontakt 5.6.8 or higher is required.

Which version (Numerically) of Cakewalk are you using? Maybe try the BETA Focusrite drivers. On a non Firefox browser, head over to beta.focusrite.com (search for "Focusrite USB2 Drivers 4.87.4")

This sounds similar to an issue I am having and that I have reported to support. In my Paste Special Options, I have “Paste into Existing clips ” enabled. I also have "Use Paste Special Options on Paste" checked in Preferences | Customizaton| Editing. Yet, when I paste a clip, that clip pastes as a new clip. This is contrary to the setting in Preferences | Customizaton| Editing. It is only after I open the Paste Special dialogue box and then cancel, that the setting Paste Special Options is used. I have logged this with Cakewalk support. You might want to do the same as it does sound similar to my issue. https://help.cakewalk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000025633

+1 for keyboard short cuts for the tools, except I use D > draw, S for Smart tool, m > move, e > edit

Smart tool?

Only someone with CHS9 will be able answer that......
