Clip/lane muted?

This is quite possible if using different online (real-time) and offline (fast-bounce) stretching algrorithms. When using the same algorithm for both, the difference will usully be more subtle. The Groove-Clip algorithm does not typically yield the best result overall for offline rendering, but it generally works well for online rendering and it's quality issues tend more toward distortion than "hiccups".

That's the way I interpreted it as well. Process > Length at 200% should do the trick.

I have HPF enabled on a lot of projects and have never seen/heard that. Can't think offhand what action might cause it either.

All the time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_light_interference_phenomenon

You mean with just a tempo change in the tempo map? is it just one discrete change or a series of changes over a short period (which some people expect to be "smoother" but isn't usually musically necessary and can actually cause problems as Jonesey noted). What kind of noise? Is this just involving MIDI or also stretching-enabled audio clips? Some plugins (mostly delays) can behave badly with tempo changes; otherwise should not be a problem in general.

Thanks for clarifying as I was also a little mystified about the scenario that would make this necessary. This is a good example of a situation that comes up rarely enough that it might not make sense to have a dedicated editing mode to address it. But my guess is this is an orchestral piece and the situation is probably more common for orchestral composers.

As John pointed out, this is the root of the problem. The FX bin is after the Gain control. You need to insert the instrument in the Synth Rack and set its output as the Input to the audio track so the signal will enter the track ahead of the Gain control. Inserting instruments in FX bins is supported for backward compatibility for projects (actually pre-SONAR 2 .WRK files) that used this approach, but is not the preferred usage now and is subject to other issues.

You've got that backwards. Insert FX are inherently pre-fader because the FX bin is ahead of the Volume control. It's not possible to have them post-fader

The above seem to be in conflict with this: How are you expecting to move "everything" downstream of the insert point without affecting clips that cross the insert point? There are many ways to selectively move content later, but not by Insert Time/Measures. This function is designed to insert an empty gap in all tracks.

Once the project tempo is well-aligned to the audio, you should set the Follow Option to Auto Stretch before enabling Clip Follows Project and making manual changes to the tempos. Other modes will try to re-align transient markers to the timeline again which may result in some immediate stretching, especially if the mode is different from that used to Set the Project from the clip. Autostretch mode won't stretch any audio until you make tempo changes, and then will just uniformlyl stretch the clip between tempo changes without regard to transient markers which will tend to be more transparent.

That's true because the Record meter is ahead of the input to the track, but the hardware input connects to the track after the Gain control. See this signal flow diagram: https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Mixing.07.html The diagram doesn't show it, but the "take off" point to write the signal to disk is essentially at the same point as the Record meter. But on playback, the signal from the file/clip comes in ahead of the Gain control. So if you alter the Gain, you will hear the difference on playback but not while recording.

In John's defense I will note that you ommitted "and installed it" from your quote, which is key to understanding which application that poster was referring to. Having been accused recently of not reading carefully enough when I am, in fact, a very careful reader in general, I can sympathize. Sometimes you just miss stuff. And John's reponse seemed more of an "explanation" than a "deflection" to me.

Are you seeing this in all projects? Snap Intensity is saved per-project and the intensity of the most-recently opened project will pertain to all open projects, but you should be able to change it in any one of them unless possibly a particular project has become corrupted somehow. Workspaces should not have a bearing but you might try setting Workspaces to None and re-trying. Otherwise... I dunno.

Strange. File import/conversion is an offline process that should not care what hardware (physical or virtual) drivers are in place. Seems more like one of those drivers was not allowing the .WAV file to be written to the drive as opposed to interferring with the conversion process, although I suppose there could be some contention for a CODEC. In any case this might be something you want to take up with the virtual audio cable developer to get a full solution.

Nether the track's Gain (input) level or Volume (output) controls alter the recorded level of a hardware input. That is solely determined by the input level/sensitivity control on the interface. So you can freely change track's Gain to get the desired level into any FX plugins you might be using and Volume to get the desired listening level.

Is this happening with a new project started from the Basic template? Can you record the note into a MIDI track regardless of whether you're hearing anything?

Just to clarify, what needs to be changed is the Edit Filter. This would be my guess also.

You can't record/import the backing tracks into CbB first...?

The whole point of Clean Audio Folder is to find all un-referenced audio anywhere in the subdirectories of the project folder. It just isn't designed to accomodate storing audio files that it doesn't recognize as part of the project. I don't think that's likely to change. Workarounds that come to mind are: - Change the file extensions to something other than .WAV or maybe convert them to .FLAC. - ZIP the Files directory.

Enable 'Select Controllers Along with Notes' in the Controllers tab of the PRV.

Yes, click the minus button and choose 'Remove HMSF'; I'm not not sure whether it's ever worked to remove a ruler by unchecking it in the context menu, but it's reasonable expectation that it would.

Share the project?

+1 I have 30 years of old projects, and all of them open fine in the current release. But I'll also suggest you copy the track content into a new project started from a current template (or a custom template created from one of the included templates) as old project files can be missing values or have non-ideal default settings for various parameters/features that didn't yet exist at the time or have been re-engineered.

Another advantage of linked clips is that you can unlink one of them at any time to introduce a small variation without affecting the linkage of the others.
