Someone else mentioned this as well. Cakewalk is selecting two or more inputs in the midi track. I have to go in and reselect the input I had previously selected and saved. Sometimes all inputs are checked... as many as 10.

For the most part. But... 1. I had to set MIDI out to 002 to keep things stable. Unless I missed it, nothing in the Sonar info said to do that but the Mixcraft info did. If I didn't have MC probably wouldn't know this. Thought it was supposed to figure out the connections on it's own but sometimes it just wouldn't do anything. 2. The CB Act module displays strange characters as described above. 3. The 'Patch>' button acts as a Play/Stop button while simultaneously expanding/closing the Browser Synth Rack. (???). 4. The manual was written for 61 keys so for LX88 all references to key #s are off by one octave. Also missing some steps which I had to figure out on my own. (edit): 5. 'Inst' key only brings up 1 arbitrary softsynth GUI, not the one on the selected track as it should. @Larry Jones Trying to use all the controls but it's a little confusing especially when controlling multiple DAWs that require different settings. Almost not worth the hassle. Nektar's info is all over the place and requires a bit of investigation and patience to make it all work. Not a lot of helpful videos either. A small matter of inconvenience is not being able to change the controls. I'd like the track buttons to default to SOLO instead of MUTE and the Master/Track fader to control the... master track, not the "current" track. If this can be done, I can't find any info on how to do it.

Hi, older Sonar project but I don't use templates. FWIW, it disappears every time in Sonar & CbB. @msmcleod Good idea. Forgot about that one.

For some reason my LX88+ and Sonar aren't getting along too well. Connection is hit and miss. Sometimes the Control Bar Module displays Chinese characters in the middle screen instead of the track name it's controlling. Sometimes it doesn't work at all. I run it thru a powered USB hub. No way around that.

In other words, bounced softsynth audio doesn't count as an audio track. If one was to use it they'd have to record the audio onto an audio track.

Anyone know if the area behind the control bar modules is editable? Only visible when moving modules around or at the far right end where the Cakewalk logo sits.

Mysteriously working now. No need for this double post, I guess.

Mysteriously working now. Can't say why it didn't work before but it still disappears after opening. I have to double click the clip again to reopen it. Is that normal? I also notice you can't select a frozen or bounced softsynth clip, only real audio clips appear in the dropdown.

Thanks Noel. I have several audio tracks. I opened the same project in Sonar PLAT and it worked, except that it disappears after opening. In CbB it opens and stays open but doesn't work at all. It could be hanging at the opening point for some reason.

Well, in this thread we like YES! As in, center zone, null zone, neutral zone, no up or down zone, for pitch bending should be -0- (zero), not 64, which makes no sense in pitch bending. Sure it's useable as is, but why was it changed? All previous Sonar versions up to X3 had it the previous way. For some reason Sonar Platinum changed it to default with the rest of the cc's.

FB tightened security due to recent publicity.

Right. But the BOX pages aren't forum, they're created and managed by the user. Is Elffin still around? I haven't been able to find a user list page.

(I'm duping this Q here as I got no response in the Q&A forum.) It seems to work in SPLAT (tho the editor disappears as soon as it opens). I follow the online directions. I watch the videos. But all I get is a dead VS Editor that does nothing. After selecting a track and creating the region FX, the Editor dial opens but instead of the track name at the top, it says <Select Guide> and the dropdown is defunct. The clip turns gray and says "Vocalsync" in the name but it isn't split in half like the pictures show. If I click anywhere away from the editor, it disappears. The online doc says "Right-click the desired guide track and select Set as Default VocalSync Guide Track on the pop-up menu." but there is no such selection in the pop up menu. Is something wrong with CbB's VS here?

I still see ads. On the old forum mobile app.

Yes but wasn't Elffin managing the BOX pages? https://app.box.com/s/jcaqb2lpcpi9f16uq99b1zvo9fmatnje

The old forum app still has ads! And the "Featured Articles" tab has topic links to this forum with BIG avatars!

I don't see any ads on other DAW user forums but they are on the old CW forum mobile app. Seem to be Google ads. Use non-Google messed with services and you might be OK. Don't have them on the laptop running IE11 & Chrome with a Metered Connection.

I usually send tracks to Group Busses and the Group Busses to the Master Bus.

They were on the old Cake forum site mobile app as well. They aren't on my home computer IE11 & Chrome (I have the cache cleared on browser close and run a Metered connection), only mobile devices.

Those not seeing ads are probably loading non cashed (cached) pages.?

Neither one works for me.

Thanks.
