I wasn't talking about not having Internet in the first place. -

I don't know why some people are so scared to connect their DAW computer to the internet once in a while. -
Setting so timeline slider will go wherever I want to put it
Byron Dickens replied to Muzician's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Absolutely. The big problem with search boxes is if you don't know exactly how what you are searching for is phrased, exactly what it is called or how to spell it, you often come up blank. -

Turn off "snap to." -
Sez you. How about changing it to what you want and then saving it.

I still have my Korg X3 and try to shoehorn it into just about everything.

Cakewalk keeps crashing during freeze if I touch it
Byron Dickens replied to sean72's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Have you considered just taking a chill pill and just letting CW do it's thing while you get some coffee or something? -
Sorry to tell you this but you might have wasted your money. Should have gotten a real audio interface from a known, reputable manufacturer of pro /prosumer gear.

How to Locate which clips have FX
Byron Dickens replied to Bassfaceus's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
How long have you been struggling with this? There is an easier way. Practice good project hygiene. Approach things in an orderly, logical and systematic manner and document them as you go along. Spending a little bit of extra time on the front end can often save tons of time on the back end. -
Any plugin that problematic I ditch and move on to something else. That's an easy one. In the preferences, check "suspend audio engine when Cakewalk is not in focus "

Byron Dickens replied to Bassfaceus's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Now you know one of the reasons why pros meticulously document every session with copious notes. -
Outside the US, there isn't the same fetish about every product having to be xx% profitable or it gets killed.

MIDI USB connection/Friendly Name issue
Byron Dickens replied to Michael Forer's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
If those are what I think they are, then that's probably the problem right there. How is Windows supposed to distinguish between generic devices and keep track of which is which? That could also be an issue. It sounds like what you need is a real MIDI interface: https://www.sweetwater.com/c677--MIDI_Interfaces -

Using PlugIn manager to install Kontakt Libraries
Byron Dickens replied to Leighton Cooper's question in Q&A
The documentation from NI will tell you how to install libraries. No, the plugin manager doesn't do that. Kontakt is the plugin, not the individual libraries within. -
^^^^^^ This for starters. As far as improving the Staff View: if it was that easy, don't you think the Bakers would have done it by now? There must be some technical reason - beyond laziness or disinterest - why it hasn't been done. I suspect it has to do with the fundamental difference in how DAWs and notation handle things. Music notation is merely a guide - a roadmap for the performer whereas a DAW is built on the paradigm of a tape recorder which captures and then reproduces a specific performance. Notation can not convey all the subtle intricacies of performance and interpretation that a musician brings to a piece but a recording can. A strict rendering of notation produces a stiff and lifeless result and an attempt to precisely notate every aspect of a performance results in an extremely messy score that is nearly impossible to read. My preferred solution is to use each application for it's intended purpose, based on it's strengths, instead of fighting with things. I ultimately find life much easier that way.

Byron Dickens replied to ALAN WILSOHN's question in Q&A
I always try out any new plug-in with a dummy test project before I use it on anything I would care about.
