  1. Some users reported latency problems with LoopMIDI. When I last checked (a few years ago) it also had issues with UWP driver mode. When I was using a virtual cable, I used LoopBe1. While it did not have latency problems, it was easy to setup feedback loops with it. I stumbled on using a plug-in to forward MIDI data while experimenting with solutions for another forum thread. It has been my solution to this MIDI routing issue ever since. Maybe BandLab could supply a simple plug-in a MIDI broadcast button on instrument/MIDI tracks or spin off another hybrid track type to handle this request.
  2. DP standalone or the DAW must be run as administrator to activate the synth OR use the Cakewalk Command Center to install it. This tool automatically activates Cakewalk products as it installs them. Once activated, the standalone and the plug-in do not need administrator to run.
  3. There are two basic track types in CbB, audio and MIDI. An Instrument track is a hybrid presentation of a MIDI track input and audio track output controls with the data portion of the track displaying either audio or MIDI data depending on the state of the track. Frozen instrument tracks display audio otherwise they display MIDI data. There is only one type of instrument track. Buses only handle audio. The audio may be from other buses, audio or instrument tracks.
  4. So this is just the project file. A project file does not contain audio clips. To share a complete project including audio either zip up the test2 project folder or create a bundle using with File > Save As from the CbB main menu. Regardless, I could dummy up an audio clip for this project but here is no need. This project consists of one audio track and one MIDI track. It does not contain the TAL-Vocoder in the audio track FX rack or ProChannel. When I add the plug-in to the FX rack of track 1 (the audio track), the VST drop down appears as expected. Once the "Enable MIDI Input" option is enabled, I can route the MIDI track 2 output to the plug-in.
  5. Use whatever track type(s) make you happy. A synth plug-ins in CbB requires at least an instrument track or one audio+MIDI track pair. Synth plug-ins will not work without a complete routing even when they do not generate audio, For "synths" that do not generate audio (mapping plug-ins like the Code FN42 plug-ins mentioned above and sequencers) I always use an instrument track. For synths they have one output, I often use an instrument track. For synths with multiple outputs, I use one MIDI track and multiple audio tracks.
  6. To take advantage of all the content bundled with SONAR X2 Uninstall CbB Perform a full install of X2 Re-install CbB
  7. The Cakewalk website is in read-only mode. Account data on that site is from the old company. New accounts are not permitted. Cakewalk by BandLab support is available from support@cakewalk.com
  8. Added instrument definitions for SI-Drum Kit and Superior Drummer 3's default map.
  9. The data needed to display note names in the Label pane next to the Note pane in the PRV. I used the SI-Drum Kit help as the data source. While one could just the existing GM definition, this shows only the sounds available in SI-Drums. I also added the labels for playing patterns. SI-Drums,ins in on my google page or use this direct link to download. If you need info about adding this to CbB or creating your own custom note names entries, feel free to ask in this thread.
  10. The old Cakewalk website support page is for the old company. The current support email is support@cakewalk.com
  11. I don't have the plug-in to test but maybe this will work http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=NewFeatures.016.html
  12. The data needed to display note names in the Label pane next to the Note pane in the PRV. Based on the default SD3 drum map. SD3.ins in on my google page or use this direct link to download.
  13. The image is from the web-based DAW called BandLab. The instructions for installing the Windows-based program "Cakewalk by BandLab" using BandLab Assistant are here
  14. I don't use Waves products but it appears from the note linked above, a different version is supplied by Waves support. It may not be the same as the version installed via a rollback. Regardless this might be something to take up with Waves support (just like the Waves page suggests).
  15. Something like adding an adjustable loop counter to the sections in an arrangement.

    Multiple Midi Recordings

    Synths playing data from other tracks is often the result of the synth's instrument/MIDI track input set to "All Tracks - Omni" and one or more other synths in the project having "Enable MIDI Output" turned on in the VST2/3 drop down in their standard header. This can be avoided by not using "All Tracks" input settings and turning off "Enable MIDI Output" in plug-ins that have the feature when the feature is not needed.
  17. Or for free try TAL-Vocoder. Here are some threads about getting started with it
  18. Maybe this would be a safer bet for now https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/2-Effects/39-FX-Bundle/7744-iZotope-Make-Music-Day-Bundle or just vocalsynth https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/4413
  19. While it should still work as an external editor, newer versions of SpectaLayers support ARA2. Whether using SpectraLayers as an external editor or a Region FX, the Melodyne processing will have to be committed before additional processing or rolled back and performed after using SpectraLayers.
  20. If running CbB stay away from Ovox for now
  21. OK, I understand. This is not normal behavior, the output appears to get reassigned as a side-effect of the split (normally this would not be noticed because the assignment should be the same in the instrument and audio+MIDI track pair), however; from what I can tell, there are other problems caused by this bug Will be testing this in the next release.
  22. It is not necessary to split an instrument track, the MIDI output drop down is on the MIDI tab in its track inspector.
  23. I noticed in the YT comments someone mentioned using the master.ins as an alternative to a drum map. This has always been an option but alternate note names had to be set every time the track was opened in the PRV. With 2021.06 alternate note names in the PRV persist per-track making this an attractive option. I created an AD2.ins from my master.ins it is available here
  24. I mostly use VST3 plug-ins but still install both. Yeah, it can run into a few GB of disk space with hundreds of plug-ins but nothing like the space required for audio data used in projects, sample and loop libraries. There are still a few things VST3 developers are slow to adopt. One I experience is sending MIDI CC data from a plug-in, a VST2 feature added to the VST3 spec around a year ago. Still waiting for this to get added to the plug-ins. Here is another example of a missing feature
  25. Is the deal with Objeq Delay one of the personal offers in your account? If not, check the upgrades and offers section on your registered products page.
