I’m disappointed. I thought you were going to give us the chord sequence to « All I Want for Christmas » . But i’ll certainly have a look at this as soon as i get out of the cold shower ! j

Pro on desktop and ltop.

On my set up the piano icon hangs around for a few seconds after Cakewalk is closed. Always has done. if is more than that, maybe a dodgy plugin ? Why is it a problem ? Jerry

I had a similar problem. Turned out it was an old Pace software driver from a long ago installed vst and no longer used. once uninstalled everything went as expected, but finding the culprit took many BSOD’s. All is up to date now J

Boss GT 100 line out to audio device. Effects already applied. J

For live recording i us an Asus i5 ROG laptop. I added more ram and it can cope with 16 tracks via a Soundcraft MTK 22 full usb audio mixer. I record onto its HD then when we have a pause, i transfer to a usb drive to free up space. its now 3 years old. It does what its supposed to, latency is good. I’m a happy camper Jerry

Just seen the news. There was only ever one James Bond ....... RIP

Set the overall volume level quite high (three quarters up.) Keep your patch levels low to avoid noise.

No, i leave quite a lot of headroom all the same.

10 to 15 seconds here. My a/v does not scan the various Cakewalk directories. J

This quite common., has happened to me often. Simply re-install your audio drivers. J

I go direct from my Boss GT100 into a Focusrite and then into CbB. I have no issues getting the tone correct. It just needs setting up correctly before hand. I record at a relatively low gain and then normalise the signal if really necessary. Jerry

Yes they do. But....... Your last statement is a bit OTT, i think. You have to take into account the variables of each user’s setup/system. So what may crash for one, won’t crash for another. Otherwise each brand’s forums would be inundated with complaints..... Is CbB « unstable » for you ? Does CbB crash « too much » for you ? i have a home built affair and it is solid - CbB hasn’t crashed since i can’t remember when. Oh, and you haven’t taken into account user error which we are all prone to at some point. Your make other reasonable points that are ok, but, and please don’t take this personally, i just don’t agree with your last phrase, its a little hysterical, s’all. at the end of the day it is all about making music............. isn’t it ? J

Yep the 18i20 is the bees knees for me. And i could daisy chain it with an LS56 (haven’t tried since the W10 v2004 update. cheers, J

Your opinion, of course. I don’t need audio snap so can’t comment, but why don’t more people complain about it ??? i find Ableton clumsy and it doesn’t suit my needs. Y MMV but hey, this is the internetwotnot no ? Best, J

The problem is with one of Pro Tools components. Cfnd.dll Googling to find out about this file got me 19 700 odd hits, the first pages being Avid forums etc. So its a known issue for some. I sometimes use ExpressVPN to logon to a work server, I don’t have any problems even if my ADSL gets cut off momentarily,. It takes just under 2 minutes for the modem to get the signal back. Cakewalk doesn’t even twitch. IMO you need to chase up with Avid. Cheers, J

Whilst you were in device manager, did you click on the Drivers tab and update said drivers ? Jerry

https://www.file.net/process/ucrtbase.dll.html Re-install the run time ? Jerry

First thing to do is re install your audio device drivers. That should perk things up. Worked for me. Jerry

Open Cakewalk in safe mode, then eliminate which plugin is not playing nice with your up to date system. Jerry

For those of you worried about giving personal details, try this site ref you personal e-mails. I bet you.’ll be surprised. : https://haveibeenpwned.com Both my e-mails have been pwned, but so what ? J

Had same problem. The. Work around is to do a manual install. I always take a copy of the Cake installer so wasn’t a show stopper. Jerry

No, not necessarily. I tried Melodyne 4 with the EA last night and it performed as expected. Jerry

Thanks ! Agreed re the solo, will take into account. J
