It was the problem. Spotted it while you were typing your answer. 🙂

Version 2024.12 Build 125 Automation working on old projects. This one started off as all MIDI files running into a TTS-1. Replacing it with individual VSTs. If I record automation I can see it in the clips, and I can hear it, but the controls don't animate. Probably related: Fader is at -6. I open automation lane for volume and it shows 0. I enable Write and the fader jumps to 0. Disable Write and it jumps back to -6. Seeing as it works properly in old projects there is just something funny somewhere in this project. EDIT: Solved; Envelope/Offset mode was switched on.

Under Export -> Audio -> What to export select Entire Mix. Sources must be your speakers.

When you say hit Save, are you using File Save or do you have Save in the Custom module on toolbar? If so, maybe remove and reinsert it. You can even try sunning scannow /fs. Nothing to lose.

It stopped nagging many months ago.

You mean the updated version runs better than the one you were using? 🙂

Have a look in the Community Content UI Themes section. Might be one there.

Then go to YouTube and watch Creative Sauce videos about getting started with Cakewalk.

EDIT: It was a folder permissions thing If i set up a layout and then use Save as, Save as type = Template, Go to folder = Templates folder, click on an existing template, and then Save, it copies the existing template's filename, and then saves the template with that name in the projects folder. It does read the templates from the templates folder.

You could try asking in the Instruments & Effects section.

You do realise that CbB will no longer have "updates", only bug fixes?

As a matter of interest, what was your project folder?

And when you have free time go to YouTube and watch Creative Sauce videos about Cakewalk. Never mind their age.

Pay for Sonar

Decent Sampler is a sampler. You load it as an instrument and use it to play samples recorded in the decent format. You load Soundpaint as an instrument. Select which sound you want and play it. Why you think they are DAWs is because they can be used in standalone mode. You connect a keyboard, select a sound and play a tune. But you cannot for example load Keyzone Classic into them. You cannot use them to mix multi-instrument music with them.
