I would clean all of them if they are getting full. The most important one is where your audio gets recorded and saved. Easier but more costly is to add another HD and point your new projects to that new uncluttered HD.

I don't know what you tried already so I will probably just duplicate anything you have already done but here goes: - Make sure no Usb hub is set to sleep or go into low power state - Uninstall or disable built in sound card - Make sure no rogue ASIO driver got installed that is not for your audio interface - Try with another DAW to see if it behaves the same

You can also just swipe select the area you are interested in and then go to the top of the clip, click and drag and it will create the notes for you.

1. Latency is caused by the size of buffer you choose. The Focusrite Driver is used to change the buffer size. Smaller buffer sizes cause less latency but can cause dropouts in audio if set too small or if your project has lots of plugins and instruments. Another option is to use direct HW monitoring. Your interface basically echoes what you are input to one of its outputs with almost no delay. The downside of this is that you don't hear any of the effects that you have added in the track in cakewalk. I don't have a Focusrite so you will have to look in the manual or on the Focusrite site to see where to set the buffer size. Make sure you have the latest Focusrite driver installed. 2. To record in mono you need to set the input of the track to a mono source. Usually the inputs to your device are listed as mono sources and then one that might combine two mono sources as a stereo source. Please look through the Cakewalk documentation or look up some youtube videos to get started.

As far as I know there are no converters that convert directly to floating point. They all sample in integer format. So even if the software lets you record and save the data in floating point format it is being converted from integers. That seems to be the same thing most DAWS do anyway. The extra Dynamic Range of a floating point number would give you no benefit down at the ADC level. Getting 24 bits from an Audio ADC is pretty challenging as it is. Even though the ADC chips list specs that seem to use all the bits those generally are done on a special test board with expensive clocking and other test equipment.

Piano roll view has its own snap settings so it could be that you didn't have the PVR snap enabled

Thanks for the input

Anyone have opinions or experience with these?

Do you have a virtual instrument loaded? Midi is just information and not sound. You have to send the midi to a synthesizer of some sort to make sound. Often, a screen capture of your project can help. Have you looked through any video tutorial or the Reference Manual?

The best way I know to do this is route both tracks to an aux track, arm the aux track and then record the aux track with the two tracks feeding it. This is a real-time process. You could also route the two tracks to a bus and then export the bus audio and then drag that rendered bus audio back into your project. I don't know of any direct way to "Mix" two tracks in the bounce to track method.

One way to debug this is to install a midi monitor app (one i recall is called midiox). Studio one, another DAW, ahs one build in. You need to make sure that windows is seeing the MIDI events before you can debug it in Cakewalk. Using a monitor app you can tell what channel and what device is sending the data. If windows sees the midi data then you can make sure Cakewalk is using the right midi device. Cakewalk has a little icon that shows up in the bottom right corner tray in windows that will blink an fake LED when cakewalk sees midi data coming in or out. Is this showing any activity? Before trying to record your midi make sure that you can hear a virtual instrument playing, with echo enabled on the track, when you play your keyboard. If you can't hear it you are not going to get anything to record. You should also see "MIDI" activity in the inspector, Hit I or view Inspector, when the MIDI tab is selected.

It might be that when you record your new controllers it adds a take lane. If you select all clips on your midi track and bounce them to combine them the controllers might show up as you desire.

You could leave them all in the same track, spread them apart by your desired amount. This would need to be done manually I believe. Then if you select all the clips and drag the end of one the others should extend by the same amount.

You would need to suggest this in the Features & Request forum

This sounds like a corrupt project file or a problem with one of your hard drives. Try creating a brand new project with nothing in it. Make a small change and save. Does it do the same thing or does it save properly?

I would suggest you get familiar with the Cakewalk Reference guide. ( Busses are found under the tracks in track view, you may have to pull them up, or to the right of the tracks in console view, you may have to pull a divider to the left. They are similiar to tracks and can have effects added to them just like any audio track. You master bus is whichever bus is assigned to go out to your hardware outputs. By putting the Calibration plug-in last it will apply the eq setttings to all audio going through that bus.

But do I need, or want it? Mixbus is good for mixing but I actually don't use it that much,

Your link just points back at this forum thread. Might want to move this to the "deals" section of the forum as well?

My suggestion would be one of two: 1. Adjust the synth pitch bend range to half of what it currently is at. Synths usually have the range which a full pitch change affects. For example 2 semitones or 12 semitones. If it is set to 12 semitones (1 octave) set it to 6. 2. Show the wheel values in the controller lane in the PVR. Use the transform tool to select all the wheel events and scale them down by 1/2. This is a bit manual but you should be able to get pretty close. A. Transform tool B. Transform tool bounding box

Try freezing the synth (* icon) and see if that sounds different.

Do you have another DAW or plug-in host you can try to load a VST into and see if the UI opens? This would rule out a system wide problem.

Maybe when you are recording you are hearing your audio interface's direct monitoring signal? Would be helpful to know what equipment you are using and how you are set up.
