Base 57

Note that the "Comp" icon must be showing to heal clips. If the "Move" icon is showing Cntrl-clicking will unselect the clip. The smart tool shows the "comp" icon on the bottom half of clips.

I have an older midiSport 4x 4 running on Windows 10 1903. I learned the hard way that it absolutely does not like being plugged into different USB ports. If you look in the registry it is likely that there are dozens of references to the same MIDI ports. You will probably need to delete the driver and clean out the registry. Then reload it and make sure it always stays on the same USB port. At least that is what I had to do when I first built this computer several years ago.

Setting the follow option to Auto stretch was something I've been missing all along. Thank you for that. You fixed me.

Just press the s key. That will split a highlighted clip at the now time without the dialog box.

Happens here too. 19.9 hotfix. I replied to a thread in Feedback Loop regardingt this. But this is the appropriate place.

The hotfix . 19.9. Build 68

Happening here too. Except mine is stuck on fast fade in.

Instead of alternating between 3/4 and 4/4, you can make that section 7/4.

I'm not sure if this will help but here goes. I have several hardware Midi devices connected through a Midisport 4x4. I use a freeware utility called MidiTrix which allows any Midi input to be matrixed to any output including virtual ports such as LoopBe and rtpMidi. This allows me to control any of my devices from any other without regard to DAW settings.

I have seen this also. Click on the clip and the waveform will draw. At least it does for me

Guys, OP wants some sort of Stop Marker before the end of the project. I think if one were to experiment with some kind of midi loopback (whether a physical cable or virtual like LoopBe) it may be possible to place a stop command into a midi track. I'm too lazy to do the experiment myself

Seriously? You want to trade a biannual log in for a pop-up every time you open CbB?

Have you tried the new filter for the Smart Tool? Unselect "Comp" in the Smart Tool drop-down. Then you can edit take lanes much the same way as you could back when they were called "Layers". The short answer to your question is; yes. However when lanes are open track edits must be made on one (or more) of the lanes, not the track itself.

Use Shift-Right click. Don't move the cursor so far away that it turns into an arrow (it should be a pencil). Cntrl-Right click also works. edited to add: I think this is broken. It should work with just the right click.

I also use Normalize often. Usually it's only one clip at a time so I don't have the same issue as the OP, but maybe I have learned to only do one at a time to avoid the problems.

Yes, kind of.. You still have to name the clip. There is an option in the Tracks tab (In Track View) to copy track names to clip names. However this also adds a number to the clip name (which is what you are trying to avoid). So this is not a perfect solution for the problem. What I do when exporting mixes, stems or individual tracks (that contain more than one clip) is first create a new track and name it. Then I bounce whatever I want to export to that track. The rendered clip will have the same name as the track. After verifying that the clip sounds as it should I export the clip. FWIW I like your idea. It would make exported files of multiple tracks much easier to organize.

If you export clips instead of tracks the clip name will be the name of the resulting file.

Korg 1212 I/O. I had an ADAT and that card had a control port for it as well as an optical port. I had a local computer store build a bleeding-edge Pentium 4 machine around it. The whole setup cost over $7K. Korg stopped supporting that card about a week after I got the computer home but it worked well so it wasn't a problem. A year or so later I bought a second ADAT and a BRC so I pulled out the Korg card and installed a card By Sonorus that had 2 ADAT optical ports. I used that rig for several years and while it is currently gathering dust in my dinosaur exhibit, it still works.

Early nineties, a friend who had upgraded gave me his old Cakewalk floppies (I think 3.0). He knew I would really like it and would buy in to the new version. He was right. Three days later I bought a new copy from a local music store. When I called Twelve-Tone to register it they said they had just released another new upgrade and after confirming the purchase date with the store they sent me the latest version. So in the space of two weeks I went through three versions of Cakewalk. After that I followed the upgrade path to CbB. I don't think I skipped more than five versions from Pro Audio through SPlat.. Although I didn't get into SPlat until the Foxboro release (couldn't resist the deflate gate) I was in it for life.

Another one for the band name list. Thank You. You guys are a never ending source of inspiration.

I use a 43" 4K TV (3840x2160 scaled at 150%) for my main monitor. Cakewalk looks great on it as does everything else. I have no idea what may be causing the problem you are having. I just wanted to let you know that 4K does work for others.

Are you using scaling in your display properties? If so try turning it off. I do use scaling and the behavior you describe is exactly what happens if I try to use the scrub tool or jog with it on. I need the 150% scale to be able to read screen so I have learned to live without jog/scrub.

In Track View / Options under Click Behavior you can select "Left click locks scroll"

Same here. Cntrl-i and Cntrl-Shift I toggle track tab and Pro Channel properly. Shift- I only opens Clip Properties. It doesn't close it anymore.
