My God, what a mess!

Fortunately, VST3 created a standard as to where the plugins are installed. For VST2, it is the wild west as to installation paths. You really ought to organize your VST2 installations and put them all in the same place instead of just blindly accepting whatever cockamamie scheme of manouver the developer dreamed up and then having to go on a hunting expedition later on to find them. C:\program files\ Steinberg\VST plugins is always a good choice; that's what I use and that's what Steinberg intended although they didn't enforce it.

Oh, what I really hate is - I forget what they call it - that one where a real carrier (take your pick) moves your shipment most of the way and the post office makes the delivery. I've seen a package come all the way across the country in two days and the post office sit on it for TWO WEEKS!

Not to my knowledge. Why not learn to read music? It's not that hard and being able to do so even half- assed really opens the world up to you.

That's not a bug. That's operating as designed. You have to change the MIDI channel of your CC events as well.

You sure you don't have a bad cable or connection somewhere?

Maybe your bass is stuck in the Suez canal....

What is the best food?

RTFM.

I think one of the lead developers probably knows how this is supposed to work.

Great, but what did you do to solve it? Maybe somebody else could benefit.

The best investment you can make in your mixes will be bass traps. Real bass traps, not the foam chunks masquerading as bass traps. They are actually really simple to build.

How is updating going to break compatibility with ongoing projects?

Just FWIW, I froze both Surrealistic MG-1 + and Voltage Modular with the same envelope you described and it worked perfectly. Different synthesizers, but same developer. So, while I don't have the solution, I do know that it DOES work.

Oh, BIAB.... BIAB doesn't handle odd time signatures correctly.

How often do you save? If and when CbB crashes for me, more often than not it is after I have made a bunch of changes without saving.

You really ought to listen with your ears instead of your eyes.

Cakewalk's staff view is abysmal. Always has been and does not seem to be much of a priority. Even a cursory search will reveal thread after thread going back into the deepest reaches of prehistory. I am not one to tilt at windmills and this one is tilting at windmills. You're certainly free to do as you wish, but my advice would be to throw in the towel . It sounds like the staff view is truncating what is being displayed. Odd time signatures display just fine in PRV. I don't know about your workflow, but composing in the DAW doesn't work for me. As someone who can semi read music, the PRV is confusing for writing stuff out; I find it great for editing, though. I tend to write everything in notation first, then export the MIDI and open it in Cakewalk. MuseScore is not very difficult and to get better you have to fork out some real money. I would highly recommend it. I use either that or Guitar Pro depending on what I'm doing.

Dupe

The staff view in Cakewalk is, um... how should we say... real basic. If you just have to look at notation I would advise using a real notation program. I have absolutely no trouble in the piano roll view with all kinds of crazy time signatures that change back and forth all over the place and PRV follows them just fine. I've never bothered with Cakewalk's staff view

Yes it will. I'm watching it do so right now.

What an idea! ?

It's all has capabilitiess at least moderately above my own skill level.

Maybe it's because I RTFM, follow the instructions and do it the way they say to instead of the way I want to
