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

...... recorded 2 months ago, not perfect but here we go. https://soundclick.com/r/s8dwn6 RIP Peter, Jerry

Without him its arguable that there would not have been some of todays artists. What a player. RIP Jerry

Consider yourself as shot. Ridiculous.

Nope, 1909 is stable for me. J

Well even MS are saying don’t update...... my roll back was successful (which surprised me ) but its 1 hr of my life i won.t ever get back. why can’t they get it right for the majority ? jerry

The easiest thing to do when ever there is an update is to download the latest version from the website. Why bother with the hassle ? jerry

Anyone tried it ? Meet any problems ? when i tried updating it hit a couple of BSOD’s and then (luckily) rolled back to where it started from. Ouf !!! That’s me finished with it. Jerry

The pre-sets are a great place to start from when finalising a track. I use it on a final mix to get that extra width and clarity. Great piece of’softwzre. Jerry

OK thats your work method. Me i would use the MTK as the only sound device, playing back the Midi drums AND over dubbing real drums at the same time. One thing you might not have considered is that you can’t use the ASIO Drivers of your Soundcraft for your method as that protocol doesn’t allow for 2 sound devices to operate at the same time. Not criticism, just a thought ! Jerry

Good question, i wrote to SOS a couple of weeks ago asking them the same - no answer received. Jerry

Great movie, all we need now is the Venice concert and of course live at Pompeii.............the DG version Jerry

If you have the MTK version of the Soundcraft with full USB connectivity, why not use it as a sound device instead of going through a sound card ? There are drivers available and they're rock solid. I have the MTK 22 version and can use it with Cakewalk no problem. 22 tracks in and 22 out, live or studio. I use it with a laptop. Its a simple but very effective machine and the pre-amps are superb. Jerry

I also have the double dvd, what a great video for confinement , and for the complete version of DSOM.......... Jerry

I had a similar problem once with my Focusrite after upgrading the drivers. Turned out i didn’t have ASIO selected within Cakewalk. On selecting that, then closing and re-opening Cakewalk, all was back to normal. Good luck, J

Just seen a concert from her (recent ? ) not a single Eurythmics song, only jazz/blues standards but wow what a voice and presence (Olympia TV on Canal + France) ........ Just sayin’ J
