Will.

Thanks but chocolate ice cream always seems to cheer me up.

Im upset with CbB right now. I have no more projects available to do. I have never been this disappointed before. How can one work without any projects! Its ridiculous . . . So, farewell until the next notification.

Apologies, but I saw the title is a trend and as we all know, you have to follow the trend in the music business. I am done with Cakewalk though. Finished all my projects and well within the time frame I had set for myself. No crashes, No hickups (thought there was issues with panning, but I was just too tired mentally and physically so some things got ignored by mistake and left untouched.) Had a smooth workflow. Looking forward to this few days off. Just have to get these out to their owners tomorrow. FR: Though. I know we can do this with Ctrl+Pin (its a daily use,) but would it be possible to get a global ON and OFF button to pin plugins automatically? For some reason it became a need. I kept forgetting to press Ctrl when opening a second or third plugin after pinning the first one.

Explain more. I'm too lazy to research this "Time Track" right now.

Things dont just disappear. Check your AV sandbox/quarantine. Are you sure you saved everything? There was no window to ask, "would you like to close the program without saving?" I mean 11 tracks disappearing out af an entire projects - as in vanished? Theres some gremlins in the system for sure | OR | human error at play. Can you confirm if these files are in the project folder?

Here's an interesting question to this: How about having the outputs to be renamed automatically on the audio tracks in CbB? Would this be up to the plugin to do this, or the DAW when sending the plugin output to an audio track?

I wouldn't use this very much. It often bring problems.

It does give the track number.

If you really want the "Zero" start. Its basically just a 'Time Ruler Format" feature. We can maybe just put in a request for it to display a little bigger? Time Ruler .mp4

Shift everything to start at measure 2 and drag the first clips out to "Zero."

This has been in Cakewalk since I started with Cakewalk X1 LE back in 2009

This need more clarification. Reason: I would'nt want a new project to open with a previous saved export dialogue settings. So you probably want it to open within the project it has been saved in. I think this is why the new prefix tags were created. You have to choose the right one (too many for me to type here now.) So, if you export stems, then you have to choose track name or clip name - which ever fit best for the export. I think notes are in there too. So just click on the tag next to the name for the list to pop up. Though: it makes sense for this to be chosen automatically when choosing the source. I think this follows your project sample rate. So if you create and mix in 44.1/24 and export to 48/32 it will revert back to the project sample rate. Too lazy to get up to check this now right now.

On a serious note and I really mean this . . . PT? Well, I will let you experience that world yourself and just say - within a period of two years, 60% of my clients have moved to another DAW. Which left me reaching deep in my pockets to keep doing business with them.

Ha! Well then, farewell. 15years? Sh*t! by this time i would not rely on Autosave at all if it keeps losing my work. Hehe! I've been married to CTRL+S for 12years in every software i use - all the way across in to paint! I bet you that freeze was a windows update, Antivirus picking up on a "POTENTIAL" corrupt file, as many AVs think every file is - especially Windows Defender. 100% guarantee it was a plugin acting up temporarily too. The iLok taking its meth shot. Chocolate Ice cream is your friend in these hard times.

What version are you running? Check for updates. If there's available, download and install them from within Cakewalk. If there's none available - locate your download folder reinstall the last download version and try again. First start with checking for updates (from the Help Tab.)

The plugins that you use.

Install your Interface drivers again - it will fix it. I have been experiencing this too a couple of times.

This could be related to Windows cumulative updates not installed on the system.

There's a new update available 28.02.37 UPDATE 1. It might fix your issue. https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/topic/41192-cakewalk-202202-update-1-early-access/ Your built of windows 10 also play a role with bugs in Cakewalk. I have had personal experience with this on my test machine last month, where I never had issues with CbB before. I had by accident installed the 20h2 built of windows 10 instead of 21h2. Had a really bad experience with CbB. It kept reverting all my settings back to 0. Even plugin settings when I open the project again.

I've literally encountered this a few times with a setting. It's literally an eazy fix, I just need to remember what it is. Try disabling the loop. Shizzs! I have to think now ajd try to reproduce it, but I promise its something literally infront of the user.

You might want to create an account first if you dont have one. As seen in the picture above, go to the HELP tab inside of the DAW, click on SIGN IN > create an account and it will activate CbB automatically.

Yep. Nothing blurry here. Crispy clean and sleek. On the same level as other DAWs.

I don't own it. I might buy it next week, but i'll try the demo and see wat the hype is about before making the decision on a purchase. I've seen some tutorials, but it didn't "wow" me. Although, i have to say: trying it personally and watching videos about it are two different worlds. My experience with many DLL's is the annoying built-in Microsoft Windows Defender blocking them - especially when it enables itself on updates

There's a reason why its called "rogue peaks." That is why I say, it can be anything. If it's an audio clip and happens at the beginning, then someone abruptly trimmed/cropped it down to where there was information on. If it happens exactly when the clip starts where there's nothing - even when it seems there might not be something (there's always something/noise in an audio clip) a fade in will definitely fix it. If it's randomly as you say, two frequencies might be fighting with each other for space. The ear then hear these buildup at random times withing the mix. Buildups dont occur only in the low end area, but throughout the mix and might be masking the actual culprit. Try giving the audio clip in discussion a slower attack from the clips its competing against - even when you have a fade in on. It can be a ping pong delay whose feedback is too long and loud that clashes/feeds into a certain track. It can be another track that's not aligning up with the loop when its enabled. It might be how it was recorded, so when ever you feed it through some time processing effects it shows its face at "random." I something spend 30mins searching for it going through each track. Trying to fix such problem with SOLO or MUTE wont give you what you're looking for. You have to locate it while the track play. You said it yourself, that it happens on the same place, but at random times.

Agree. The Antivirus might be blocking it. Avast and Windows Defender are two most annoying AV software causes, but highly recommended for me.
