What’s the best way to ask a question?
Jim Fogle replied to Jesse Jost's topic in Frequently Asked Questions
@gbc410 George, Welcome to the Cakewalk by BandLab (CbB) forum! BandLab offers user and developer support through the forum and developer support through e-mail. I have not seen any indication that telephone support is available. I can attest that I've received a timely response when I've used both the forum and e-mail. -
Greetings Sarmad and welcome to the forum! You've created an interesting list. I'm just a beginner at audio production, working with midi and using Cakewalk by BandLab so I hope you don't mind if I ask you to expand upon your suggestions so I can better understand them. Your expanded explanations may help me to better understand how your suggestions will benefit me! Why would you need to search for loaded tracks or synths? What kind of external fx plugin do you mean? Can you provide examples? Examples. What can Cakewalk by BandLab change so it better handles notation? Do you expect or desire Cakewalk by Bandlab to handle notation as well as a standalone notation program? What notation feature(s) would you consider one or more giant step(s) forward for Cakewalk by Bandlab? Are you providing the Cakewalk by BandLab developers with bug or crash reports when you have instability working with lots of synths in huge midi projects? If so, thank you. I think everyone including the developers agree with you. Have you seen that the August 2019 update has more than 120 bug fixes!

Love it! That looks nice and is easy on the eyes. Wonderful! -

The Vocal Reverb strips are really green. Although the font and color pops-out I think that is a little too bright when viewed in dim or dark lighting. At night I typically have my laptop monitor brightness turned down as low as it will go. When I'm using it that way very bright colors overshadow the rest of the screen. -

Black font on yellow background like the insert labeling just above the sends? I think that would work very well. -

The only issue I see is the red labeling in the Send modules is unreadable. See the screen shot below: http:// -

@msmcleod How did you find out about the six minute limit? I did not see that information on the webpage. I tested it but could not tell a distinctive difference using the three settings. They all sounded about the same to me.

Place your mouse cursor in the display area and right click to toggle the display between the following time formats: * M:B:T (Measure:Beat:Tick). Example: 8:01:000. * SMPTE (Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Frames). Example: 00:00:21:00. * Frames. Example: 629 (only available if project contains video). * Milliseconds (Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Milliseconds). Example: 00:00:21:000. * Samples. Example: 926100. You can also right-click the display, and choose time formats from the pop-up menu.

New updates don't allow sinewave automation anymore
Jim Fogle replied to Mathew Valente's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
@msmcleod Or stop drawing altogether. I have not used this function but I would not expect drawing to continue when the pencil tool is outside the automation lane. -

@scook But not everyone is comfortable performing registry hacks and would rather not risk accidentally damaging the operating system registry. One workaround maybe to use print screen to take a screen shot of the paths the program follows to scan for VSTs and then remove all paths except for one. Perform a manual scan and see if there is an issue, if not then replace that path with another and test again. Continue testing until trouble is encountered then eliminate the VSTs one by one.

@Noel Borthwick @Morten Saether Thank you for taking time to create this post. There is much about Cakewalk by BandLab I do not understand but the short videos and comprehensive descriptions help me to understand the new behaviors. I'm loving the bi-lateral communication taking place in this forum. 2019.07 is a giant step forward and the communication is an important component of the advancement.

Thanks for the link Steve. So from the link It appears the term, toast notification, was first used by developers to describe pop-up messages. Evidently the name became a common term in public use over time. Just goes to show I'm a little behind the times. Don't use a cell phone too much either.

Steve you're answering questions faster than I can edit!

Hello, I noticed Cakewalk by Bandlab's 2019.07 update included some changes in how or when toast notifications are displayed which begs the question, "What is a toast notification?" I searched the Cakewalk by Bandlab Reference Guide but did not find a definition. @Morten Saether Hopefully a formal definition will be added in an upcoming update to the document, hint hint. Meanwhile, it will be interesting and enlightening to read all responses.

Try setting Cakewalk's tempo to match the wav file tempo before you import the file into Cakewalk. Chances are the file tempo is morphing during the import in an attempt for the file tempo to match the DAW tempo. Also, if my suggestion doesn't help please provide the steps describing how you're selecting and importing the file into Cakewalk.

This is the kind of stuff I like to see. Yes, there is a plan and it reads like a good one for us users.

Two more virtual steel guitars to add to the growing list of virtual steel guitars. Tod's midi steel guitar: $149 US Requires full retail Kontakt. https://todsvirtualinstruments.com/product/tods-midi-pedal-steel-guitar/ I get the feeling you program your midi track to hear what you want.

Normally $299 US; on sale for $149 US until August 10, 2019. http://www.wavelore.com/products.php?product=WLPS Old library that requires Kontakt 2.2 or higher.

Theme easy on eyes (update)soft yellow meters

@martins, If it is okay with you, I will wait until the updated theme is available. I like the theme. I do not wish to distract attention away from the theme. -

Jim Fogle replied to martsave martin s's topic in UI Themes
@martins I'm sorry I didn't respond sooner. I was offline for some time. My Dell laptop has Windows 7 Home 64 bit. I'm not finding the path you provided. I pasted and extracted the jsb4wun0.zip folder to the Cakewalk Themes folder containing the easyeyes theme. I pasted the png file into the easyeyes folder and inside the folder. No difference. I'm sure I'm not placing the file in the correct location but I'm not sure how to proceed. -

Jim Fogle replied to martsave martin s's topic in UI Themes
I like this theme a lot. I use a Dell laptop and normally my eyes start to feel strained pretty quickly. This theme feels easy on the eyes. One small complaint or change request. Look at the screen shot below and notice the Sonitus insert plugin. That color doesn't look too bright in the screen shot but on my computer screen those rectangles pop out from the screen like a 3D image. -
