If you look in task manager do you see a cakewalk.exe process after the splash screen disappears? Usually issues like this mean something is causing the main process to terminate. Try and backtrack to any changes you might have made earlier since you mentioned that it was working earlier.

Right as you guessed we have a timer to prevent inadvertently changing control values. People complained about accidentally changing values while meaning to scroll so this delay was added to alleviate such issues. I don’t remember if scroll wheel works on the effects rack but it it is treated no differently from other track or mixer controls.

The error message you list is not ours but from the Microsoft installer from the redist itself. This link seems to indicate that your windows installers may need repair. https://thegeekpage.com/the-feature-you-are-trying-to-use-in-on-a-network-resource-that-is-unavailable-in-windows-10-fix/ Also read this. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/protect/forum/all/the-feature-you-are-trying-to-use-is-in-a-network/80d4be22-aab6-47f0-a7dc-8a3131fc8df0?page=2 It seems that a registry entry on your pc may be pointing to a non existent drive which may be confusing the Microsoft installer. Check the path that it lists in the error message and follow those links.

@Twaddle did you follow this procedure and still have no success? BTW your post isn't about running Cakewalk. It's that you can't run the installer...

The global FX button also bypasses prochannel fx.

We install all redists that are REQUIRED by Cakewalk so using the installer provided should address any Cakewalk related issues.

Not all companies can keep up with the latest versions that is normal. However waves does test with Cakewalk and report issues to us. Changes on incremental releases are very unlikely to affect global compatibility.

Doubtful. It could be a general hang in the system or even a bug. Hard to say without the ability to reproduce it. Is it happening consistently with your project? However smaller buffer sizes can expose certain bugs or race conditions more readily so its a possibility that you may not run into it at a larger buffer size. In any case there is a simple resolution to switch to the default scheduling model.

Incorrect information. CbB started development from the last version of SONAR Platinum. The first CbB release was in fact identical other than a few bug fixes. There were exactly zero teething problems other than transitioning the activation system and some installer changes to removed bundled 3rd party licensed plugins. There is no comparison to any prior version of SONAR anymore. Cbb is a vastly improved and more stable program with thousands of bug fixes and hundreds of new features since then.

@LittleStudios you are using the "aggressive" thread scheduling model. The error code 19 means "Multiprocessing the audio tasks timed out waiting for completion". This is likely some corner case with your project that is leading to this. "aggressive" mode is not heavily tested so I suggest switching back to the default thread scheduling model. This is completely unrelated to the current update btw.

We own the licenses to them all. It was intentionally not included in the free set of released plugins when we first released Cbb. It may be released in the future.

Look ahead is not related to processing cost. Rather it is required to allow the processor to look at historical audio ahead of time. That is what causes the delay because the plugin needs to buffer audio in advance before it can start processing it.

The free version will not do MIDI extraction. Celemony no longer allows it.

If you are running the free version of Melodyne 5 or the player, MIDI extraction no longer works. You need to purchase one of the other products.

Hi everyone. The Cakewalk Web Installer has now been officially released. To download it, choose Download and then pick the Cakewalk Installer instead of BandLab assistant. Note that once you have Cakewalk installed all subsequent updates can be done directly from within the application via Help | Check for updates. Notifications for available updates are also automatically shown by default. There is no need to use BandLab assistant now unless you wish to do offline authorization for Cakewalk, or you want access to BandLab loops.

Please send a link to a project file with the issue as well as the steps to reproduce it including the name of the fxchain preset

@chris.r please capture a dump from task manager and send us a link. We can't investigate hangs with out this.

Our team is out for the holidays but we'll follow up when we're back in Jan. The most important thing would be to supply a link to a project file (with audio) that exhibits the problem so that we can look into it.

Interesting. We'll double check to see if something isn't being released.

To clarify, if you save as a track template multiple times from the same project, does it keep cumulatively eating up memory on each save from within the same project?

Please PM me a copy of the template file.

Let me know what Nueral DSP says. I am in touch with them and can follow up if necessary. It would seem that they are caching the sample rate and not responding to a change in sample rates properly. Cakewalk initially sets the sample rate to the default but the actual project setting will override this later. The plugin needs to respond to this change or it will be out of sync.

Wow thats a bizarre issue. It could be hardware or driver related. I have no idea how invalid mouse messages could be sent otherwise. Are you running a multi monitor setup as well? I see in your video that you have two monitors. Are they identical resolutions and have you set one up in windows to be higher than the other? Also to troubleshoot see what happens if you tile the axe fx on the same monitor as CbB, or flip cakewalk to the right monitor.

I set mine to 11. It has extra crunch

@Panu Pentikäinen have you tried using a different mouse to rule out a mouse driver issue?
