Don't know what "round" means but themes for Cakewalk by BandLab can be found in the Forums > Community > Content > UI Themes forum.

This will bypass the entire PC rack even if some modules in the rack are left "ON".

Since you posted, I'll update my post above here: Not true since a complete system reinstall. 32 bit- StVX64.dll v1.0.3.0 (2012) 2208 KB (StyleDial) VX64_VocalStrip.dll v1.0.4.0 (2014) 1954 KB 64 bit- StVX6464.dll v1.0.3.0 (2012) 3041 KB (StyleDial) VX64_VocalStrip_64.dll v1.0.4.0 (2014) 3041 KB I remember reading about it or maybe had an issue myself awhile back but don't have any details. I was just offering as a maybe why they're hidden.

I've always used Elastique for bouncing clips with good results until today. Bouncing should clean up audio distortions. But today it actually created them. 4 sec vocal clip before bounce: audio looks and sounds fine. after bounce: audio looks and sounds distorted with popping noises. I tried bouncing this clip with a bigger one with the same results. I switched to Radius and got much better results. They each work better for certain tasks - as outlined in the documentation, but none of them should create distortion or artifacts damaging a clip beyond use. So just wondering what might be going on here.

Sonitus plugins have been around forever now and still no way to automate them ON/OFF? They all have a BYPASS button so can it be added to the automation list? For instance, when using the Equalizer, I have to separate sections of a full length clip and setup 6 automation lanes for those sections. Or put the sections on a separate track, or... It would be simpler to automate the Sonitus BYPASS button.... or even the track FX Rack ON/OFF button.

Only me & only once.... Either way looks like I misread it, but they were already renamed so I wasn't going to rename them again. I just finished using the method I posted in bold above and didn't take so long. Took longer to create this thread tho you helped get me on the right track.

Yes I renamed them in the folder. The quickest, most common, traditional method used by normal people everywhere. Thanks for that info Canopus. but simply loading and Saving As to the same name does not work. I located the STRING names in a resource editor and found the names had not changed. This method only works if you're renaming it differently than the name it already has. What does work is, opening the theme, double-clicking a color, clicking OK and hitting SAVE. Now... does doing that to 40+ already renamed files sound like a good use of time? I love the T.E. but the renaming thing sounds like a bad way to code.

I just cleaned up my theme folder of unwanted/unused themes. Then I renamed several. After a system reboot CbB still lists all the old names in Preferences. Not sure which is which now. Since Theme Editor is no longer updated is there a way to fix this on my end? Theme Editor itself sees the new names as expected.

Something wrong with the Browser when Audio FX is listing MIDI FX instead. Try removing and reinstalling Cakewalk as administrator.

Well it does change the track icon as it should but doesn't change the sound or Pan of the output. Something disabled the Pan function permanently locking the tracks in the hard panned state they were in. I could post before and after screenshots showing this.

I was curious if I had done something to cause it but now I don't think it's something that can be reproduced intentionally and may have happened during one of CbB's frequent crashes or hanging in Background Processes. AAR the offending tracks are replaced with new ones in the latest saved project... so far so good. Turns out I had saved several sequential projects that have the bad tracks but they will lie dormant until deleted.

... something interrupted my train of thought.

Easily confused with Interruptibility.

Same track with Pan set 3 ways resulting in same left output. Bus plugin is stereo Sonitus Equalizer. The other track panned hard right affected the same way.

Depends on the effect you want from the track. It's common to use a stereo plugin on a mono guitar track.

dxshell works great but has some odd side effects. I put it in the TTS-1 folder so VSTHost will see and load it. Since it's in the TTS-1 folder, Cakewalk/Sonar lists it twice: Does the same for Dimension LE dxi and Roland Groove Synth, only the dxshell versions load in Cakewalk with a blank GUI and no sound. VSTHost gives me a mile long list of other "dxshell.dll" with no clue what plugins they are. Not sure how it finds it's way outside the TTS-1 folder but all hosts seem to let it go wild.

Tracks were deleted but appeared as any new track would, Pan knobs simply didn't work. I finally traced the issue to a 2020 project that was saved in x32 SPlat. The last good project was also saved in x32 SPlat. The problem is there when opened in SPlat so SPlat is to blame. I haven't worked on those particular tracks since then so didn't notice the issue until now.

In my case it's possible the Metronome was going thru outboard FX so the last note's tail was recorded. I try to avoid this... most of the time.

Since only one response out of 80+ viewers I can only assume this is a rare event. Pan law is 0 and never touched. Audio files seem ok as they play correctly in a new track. So... old tracks must be corrupted?! Any rate, they are now replaced with new tracks properly panned.

what did I do??? One mono audio track plays hard left and one mono track plays hard right when both Pan knobs are -0-. All track settings look right for playing dead center. Converting to stereo and panning opposite results in silence even though you can see wave form on both channels. Interleave button changes nothing. No FX. No bus. No automation. If I create a new audio track and copy the audio clip there it plays dead center as it should.

3rd topic from the top of the list.

Problem is with the 1st initial try. If I reselect the tracks and apply the change a 2nd time, it works.

Interesting. I just updated to that when I tested. Will reboot and test again.

This seems to be an issue with Pianissimo v1.0.0.15 and only in Cakewalk/Sonar. v1.0.0.12 works fine but is 32 bit and has to be bridged.
