To get the physical location of clips Select the clip(s) Right-click on one of the clips or a blank part of a track to bring up the context menu Click last option on the menu - Associated Audio Files

The only time I have seen that error the plug-in was trying to load programs (AKA presets, the files with .prog extensions in ProgramData) made for a different synth such as opening Rapture programs in DP.

All Cakewalk DAWs and Cakewalk by BandLab share all the content in the "Shared" folders and some registry entries. There is no way to keep them completely separate when they are installed on the same machine.

The quick way is to set the track interleave to Mono The track interleave button may look different than the image in the help. The track interleave in the track inspector is just above "E" in the image below. It also may be on the track header and console strip. The best way is Bounce to Track(s) set the Source Category to Tracks, select the Track and set the Channel Format to Split Mono. After bouncing the track pan the track containing the audio to center and delete the empty track. In the future instead of recording the track in stereo set the input drop down on the track to the appropriate channel (in this case the left channel) and set the interleave to Mono

All of the Add-ons are optional.

It is a 30 day trial of the full version of Melodyne. After the trial expires, the editor stops working but monophonic audio-to-midi and tempo detection continue to work. BandLab Assistant keeps track of what it has installed by writing records into the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Installers

They had a general sale last Winter from mid-Dec through early Jan.

The 64bit FX2 Amp Sim was last bundled with X2. It is the one installed when running the 64bit install option.

It's pretty old but the 64bit version still loads in CbB This series of DX plug-ins were never ported to 64bit. They cannot be used in CbB or any 64bit host. Having a 32bit version of SONAR installed can ease transitioning old project to 64bit by allowing the projects to load all their 32bit plug-ins.

Here are two ways Cakewalk provides to create custom MIDI note maps: Drum maps and the Tranpose MFX

In general, it helps to provide information about your hardware and OS. In this case some details about the hardware used to record the audio and how the signal is being monitored may help isolate what is bleeding into the other tracks. If there is a "What you hear" setting on whatever device is playing back the audio this can be the problem. Sometimes users with mixers accidentally route some of the playback back to the recording track(s).

maybe because the option in the red box is checked

Here is the process for handling crashes and dumps If the reinstall fails, it is a support issue - contact support@cakewalk.com

Cannot tell if the clean install process was used If it was and failed as described above, the installation was pretty broken Even if uninstall fails from BandLab Assistant (should never attempt to run uninstall directly from Windows, CbB uninstall runs from a menu in BA as shown in the image below), the subsequent steps in the clean install process remove the remaining binaries and configuration. At that point the reinstall is effectively a new install of CbB. Keep in mind step 9 of the clean install instructions deletes c:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Vstplugins. This will result in removing any 3rd party plug-ins installed in that folder.

From the product brochure available in the link above, the BR-800 included a copy of SONAR 8.5 LE. This 32bit entry-level DAW is no longer available, however; the good news is a more capable product is available, supported and free. It is called Cakewalk by BandLab. Here are the instructions for download, installing and activating Cakewalk by BandLab using BandLab Assistant.

Cakewalk never wrote drivers. The driver is available from Boss here

Bundling is provided for backward compatibility. When per-project audio folders were introduced almost 18 years ago, bundles became redundant. Bundles do provide a single file for sharing but it is little different than using zip (without compression) on a project folder created with "Save As." The main difference is zip files are more robust than bundles. Moving a project is a simple OS operation using Windows Explorer. Bundles are far to brittle for backup or archive. "Save As" creates a folder containing the same content as a bundle without the added risk of reformatting the data. There has been one case I recall over the last 18 years where bundling provided a uniquely useful function...repairing projects damaged by a bug in Autosnap. The bug was fixed years ago.

IIRC, SampleTron is an old XP-era IKM plug-in. It is probably trying to access a protected part of the registry. If you cannot figure out what part of the registry the plug-in is attempting to access and modify its permissions you will have to run CbB as administrator. A better solution is replace outdated, unsupported plug-ins with current and supported products. Updating everything except a few plug-ins and expecting these plug-ins to perform as they did when they were actively maintained by their manufacturers is not reasonable.

Drum Replacer is not a regular VST3 plug-in. It is intended to be used as a Region FX only. It is excluded by default in the Plug-in Manager so it does not show up in the plug-in lists.

The chip installed in a PC is designed for audio playback. It will work fine if you primarily plan on using audio and MIDI loops entering MIDI data using step recording or directly into the Piano Roll View, Staff View or Step Sequencer You will have limited success recording audio or MIDI from external devices such as a microphone, musical instrument or MIDI keyboard.without an audio interface capable of low latency performance.
