You don't have to. Opening the export dialog again automatically dismisses it.

Its apparently a virtual memory paging error. May be worth passing the info along to them in case they have received other reports of it.

FYI Re AMD systems https://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-windows-11-slows-cpus-up-to-15-patch-coming

This is not a stock windows dialog so it's not unexpected that it has some differences in behavior. But we'll look into some improvements.

145 is indeed the latest release that's why.

@dave coomber Can you check the size and details for the installer file that was downloaded?

2021.09 Update 1 has been released. Go to Help Check for updates to download it.

As Morten wrote there is no error. Its working as designed.

@Laurence Levin If the program is exiting on start the most likely reason is that something has corrupted your C++ redistributables. Please download the latest redists or try reinstalling Cakewalk. Does it fail to load the application itself or is it failing to load a specific project file. If you are having an issue with a specific project please make sure you are running the latest EA build which is 145 and retry it.

This is a Roland driver bug. Drivers are supposed to handle abnormal termination properly. You have to power cycle the device after a crash.

The link in the main thread has been updated to Build 145. Thanks to Kim Strong for his assistance tracking down this issue. Issues Resolved in Build 145: S-Gear 2 VST3 plugin crashes on some systems when inserted

In every release of Cakewalk by BandLab we include a link to "Rollback installer" along with its product release notes. All historic product release information can be found here with links to the corresponding rollback installers. If you encounter a problem after a new release, you can try and rule out whether the problem is specific to that release by using a rollback installer. Running a rollback installer will revert the installed version to the last publicly released version before the installed version of Cakewalk you are running. NOTES Please note that the rollback installers are specific to each release. i.e. you cannot use a rollback installer downloaded for an earlier release on the latest release because it will fail to run. If you need to, you can also go back to past versions by downloading and running rollback installers in succession. To get back to the latest release after running a rollback installer go to Help | check for updates and reinstall the latest update. PS: We only support the most current version of the application. Since Cakewalk is always evolving, older versions may contain bugs and certain features may not function properly due to back end changes. Always work with the most current version of the application and directly report any problems to Cakewalk should you find any.

@Robert Stringer what issues specifically? There are no changes that would result in this. You can certainly roll back but its unlikely to solve anything.

Another build posted today with the following fixes. Link in main post. Issues Resolved in Build 144: MP3 options dialog does not show recalled task settings Export as MIDI exporting whole project if selection at time zero Intermittent crash when closing Arranger Section Context Menu Windows notification sound when opening export audio dialog in some projects

@Jean Corivo thanks for the update. I'm glad its ok now but I'm not sure what could have caused that. Perhaps it was related to the fact that the bounce was doing unnecessary resampling if the project sample rate was different from the default sample rate...

That isn't a dropout. The plugin is failing to load. Either its not installed properly or its a plugin authorization issue. You would have to follow up with iZotope on that if the problem persists.

Please post any findings in the main feedback thread. The feedback for tasks is in the main export dialog and you can cancel from there by pressing the cancel button. I'm not seeing your issue however. When exporting with source category track folders I am seeing progress displayed and cancel works fine. You could make a video to show whats happening.

We posted an early access build for an upcoming 2021.09 Update 1 release. This build addresses user reported problems from this thread. Please check this build as soon as possible and report back.

We're pleased to announce Early Access for Update 1 of 2021.09! This release includes a small handful of user reported stability issues. If you have encountered any of these issues, please check out this release and and confirm that your issue is resolved before we release the official public version. Please note that Early Access installers are update installers, which only update from a specific version. To install the 2021.09 Update 1 Early Access build, you must be on the latest public release of 2021.09. Download Cakewalk 2021.09 Update 1 EA installer If you haven't already done so, please read about the Early Access Program before participating. Please keep responses specific to problems or comments on this release. Unrelated bugs or feature requests should be posted in other threads or the feature request channel.

Perhaps you have notifications disabled on the other PC then.

Interesting, do you recall if you were running at a higher buffer size when the issue happened? Any use of surround buses / effects? I doubt its related to flushing tails but you can disable it in preferences | audio configuration by setting "BounceFlushTailsMaxDurationSec" to 0. Its hard to say what the cause is for this from your symptoms but if you see a recurrence let us know. We are going to be releasing some fixes this week that solve some other reported issues but they had different symptoms.

Hi @Adam Casey, We're aware of the mono issues with external inserts and its on the backlog for future investigation. Its not that its not important its just that we're a small group and we have had a ton of things to address before getting there. Thanks for your patience and we'll certainly keep you in the loop when we get around to tackling that for sure. Regarding the solo issue, we tried to reproduce this today and were unable to do so. Would you be able to send us a project that exhibits this behavior so we can investigate it further? Try and eliminate as much as possible from the project to simplify it first, and then save as to a new folder and zip the entire project folder with audio. You can upload it and PM me or @Jonathan Sasor a link to the file.

@Olaf if you have any project that exhibits this we'd like to see it. To rule out any of the new stuff did you try turning off effects tails flushing and are you exporting with the buffer size set to "follow playback"? Does this problem still persist?

The toast is not shown when executing export tasks in the queue because tasks can create multiple files in different locations. Its only shown when doing a single export.

I think you are overanalyzing this. This is not something that requires a ton of documentation for something beyond what's already there - which is it provides higher resolution for mixes. The documentation is for users not computer scientists For those who are curious for more detail there are the white papers referenced or the web.
