  1. Hey, hey, Jonny, Go to Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts and Export your custom set. Then you can Import them after each update.

    Loop Point Minimum

    The minimum Loop duration is an 1/8th note. On occasion I'd like to loop 1/16th or even 1/32nd note. Is there a reason or can this be changed in a future update?
  3. Was TTS-1 ever offered as a standalone? Yamaha XG brush kits have both brush hits and swirls.
  4. Yeah, I renamed a wrk file to read cwp but since CbB opens both it probably just ignored the change. No doubt renaming a cwp file to wrk and using Home Studio 9 to open it won't work.
  5. I always thought it'd be nice to have a project file for GPO's Pocket Prince demo song. Doubtful they used Cakewalk to create it tho.
  6. Were the Expansion Packs part of Garritan's sounds? To me the GPO - Flute V Legato sample sounds identical to the Expansion Pack 1 - RGC Flute in The Venue minus a little reverb?
  7. Was this mentioned? Check your track "Input" button to make sure the Yamaha is selected with (channel 1 or omni) instead of the CW virtual controller. My Yamaha PSR540 also Keeps the MIDI interface light lit continuously. Must be a Yamaha thing. Since I don't use it as a controller, I leave that cable disconnected.
  8. In fact.... .. ....... . the file formats are so similar (if not exactly) you can change "wrk" file extentions to "cwp" & vice versa with little to no incident. Kinda like "cwres" (cakewalk resource) files are really "ini" files. You can open a "wrk" file in CbB, but you can only save it as a "cwp" file. ?
  9. What you call "playlist" is actually "Track View." The Playlist is an entirely different window in the "Save As" menu.
  10. Similar story here with a 1992 Ensoniq SQ'2 & Home Studio 9. When you think about it, Cakewalk still does the same MIDI stuff it originally did. .cwp files are very similar to the old .wrk files and have always been compatible. Old .bun files not always so much. Definitaly move your old ESQ files to modern media as old media can fail over time. I put mine on CDs before the original floppies & the disk reader no longer worked.
  11. Right. And thanks Promidi for your explanations. I actual understand all that, I'm just dreaming about how I'd like it to be. MIDI started in the early '80s and evolved thru the '90s. MIDI 2 in 2017/2020. As I understand it, MIDI 2 will only work with devices supporting it, not our current devices.
  12. Yes. Turn the grid at PRV's top right corner OFF and it follows the main Snap routine. Nice having both tho.
  13. It might be. In 20 years I've never seen this, so I'd also be interested in what the Event List has to say.
  14. There's times when you need one note to bend 1 semitone and another to bend 2, or one up and one down, etc. I don't really understand Articulation Tracks and may never - but - It might be cool if Take Lanes on a single MIDI track could be used to handle this. Or a 3rd lane specific to them.
  15. ^ This. My hardware synth/sequencer has built in option of bending the last note of a chord but cant be done like that in CbB's PRV. And not aware of any virtual instruments set up that way. Maybe the new articulation track can do it??
  16. How to update: 1. Uninstall Assistant 2. Download latest Assistant from: https://help.cakewalk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021665974-BandLab-Assistant-won-t-update-#:~:text=If you see an update,existing version of BandLab Assistant. 3. Install latest Assistant
  17. Tried to update 6.2.0 with Assistant only for it to keep vanishing w/o doing anything. Please explain how to update. Appears after closing it, it's still hanging in memory and needs a forced quit in Task Manager. Wonder if/when this will be fixed?
  18. i also use the old one... with a face lift.

    Reading old .WRK files

    Most of a .wrk or .cwp file info is coded so unless you can decode it there's not a lot of info to glean from it.
  20. Or at least add a right-click menu to copy to clipboard. Same for all text type views.
  21. NON-Segmented meter colors are changeable but use the same colors for both MIDI & Audio tracks. Preferences>Customization>Audio Meters is misleading as it affects both MIDI & Audio meters. (Edited...)
  22. S7 = Sonar 7. If both S7 & CbB projects are set up exactly the same using the same .mid file with different results, wouldn't one conclude the 2 programs are handing things differently?
  23. Confirmed here. It will do it at the beginning of the clip also if pedal down is the first action while recording. You can drag the ends out to see the cc data but not even bouncing will fix the clip visually. FWIW, SPlat does the same thing.
  24. +1 for non segmented meters. Segmented meters (png's) can be repainted different colors already. I use blue for MIDI & orange or green for audio.
