  1. Yes, if you are willing to edit the registry. This may be performed with regedit or the Launchpad tool I wrote. If the projects have the same name, I don't believe it is possible using the Start Screen but Launchpad shows the project path.
  2. The greyed out value next to the 64bit DPE check box is driver bit depth. Most ASIO drivers use one bit depth so this drop down is disabled. Moreover, driver bit depth has nothing to do with sample rate or the problem reported. FYI, this is not the record bit depth which is set on the File Audio Data preference page. This too does not affect clip playback speed but should no lower than the driver bit depth. Choice of driver is made on the Audio Playback and Recording preference page, however; changing to a different driver mode is likely not the solution. The choice of 32 or 64bit engine does not affect clip playback speed. Neither does creating projects on 32bit software and playing back on 64bit software.
  3. One thing that can cause the DAW to play clips too fast is the sample rate of the clips is lower sample rate then the sample rate reported by the clip headers. This can happen when the DAW sends the audio interface (currently running at a lower sample rate) a request to change sample rates and the interface ignores the request. When recording the DAW writes the data at the interface sample rate but the clip headers are set to the DAW sample rate. One way to see if this is what happened here is modify the clip headers. One such tool I have used in the past to preform this task is sox. Using sox to change a clip header to 44.1k is sox -r 44.1k clip.wav fixedclip.wav If loading the fixedclip.wav into a Cakewalk project running at 44.1 plays OK, it means the project was actually recorded at 44.1k. If the fixedclip.wav runs too slow check higher sample rates.
  4. The Q&A section is the only one setup with that feature. It also has a slightly different layout that is less geared toward discussion. For the rest of the forum consider adding [Solved] or the like to the subject when a topic has a resolution.
  5. The only reason to run Cakewalk as administrator is if you are using old (XP era) plug-ins that access parts of the drive or registry that require elevated privileges on newer OSes. Even running these old plug-ins, often it is possible to either install them in a user writable location (for those writing into the install folder) or change the permissions on the disk or registry to get around the problem. Unless you have plug-ins that require elevated privileges, there is no need to run CbB as administrator.

  7. Cakewalk did not offer physical media for Platinum. You will have to create the disks yourself. The installers are available in your old Cakewalk account. Addictive Drums and Melodyne are managed by their respective companies. XLN Audio has a universal installer for their products. It is available at their site Melodyne should be downloaded directly from your Celemony account. With the exception of these two products, the rest of Platinum should be installed using the Cakewalk Command Center. The installers used by the Cakewalk Command Center are the same as the installers in your old Cakewalk Account. They are cached on your PC. The default location is C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads. Cakewalk By BandLab can use everything bundled with 64 bit Platinum. CbB started with the Platinum code base so the DAW is very similar to Platinum except it does not include most of the plug-ins and content bundled with Platinum. Of course, CbB has been updated regularly since BandLab purchased the code. Currently BandLab recommends performing a full install of SONAR Platinum then install CbB.
  8. If the definitions are they way you like them in X3 then rename the master.ins file in %appdata%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core copy the master.ins from X3 folder in %appdata%\Cakewalk into %appdata%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core The X3 folder is product specific so it could be SONAR X3 Producer, SONAR X3 Studio or just SONAR X3 depending on the version you purchased.
  9. Plug-in Properties is in the drop down above the Plug-in UI. The Plug-in Properties dialog is available in the Plug-in Manager too.
  10. Another way to make low end mono using M/S EQ
  11. Do not use the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth. It is likely the major cause of the delay you are experiencing. In fact you may as well disable it. Instead use soft synths instead. Rather than adding a MIDI track try adding TTS-1 or any other soft synth to the project using the Add track menu. See the To create Instrument tracks section on this page.
  12. Unless you need to send MIDI to the soundcard, disable it. Even if you do use the MIDI output, for now it may be a good idea to temporary disable it and see how CbB sets up TTS-1. Adding soft synths to a project may be done in a variety of ways. Different methods have different ways to add (or in this case not add) tracks to the project. Several use the insert soft synth options dialog. This dialog has check boxes to control which track types are added for the synth. The add track menu has its own option settings. Midway down the page is the To create Instrument tracks section. Regardless, it is easy enough to point an existing MIDI track to a synth and delete the newly created track(s) using the MIDI track output drop down. A complete synth routing includes at least one MIDI track and one audio track (or an instrument track which is a hybrid track consisting of a MIDI track and an audio track).
  13. To create a new project from a MIDI file, open the file using File > Open from the main menu. If the MIDI output section in preferences has nothing enabled, CbB will automatically add TTS-1 assigning the appropriate instruments to the MIDI file. It is possible to add a MIDI file to an existing MIDI track using File > Import > MIDI but import strips out the MIDI tempo data.
  14. Run the standalone version of Melodyne and update it from there or Set the check for update in the Melodyne help menu to manual.

    The Vedio View Problem

    When documented features seem to be missing the first thing to check is the Workspace setting. The first image shows the Workspace is set to Basic. The Basic Workspace does not include the Video view. Try setting the Workspace to Advanced, None or create your own.
  17. could be related to this thread from the old forum.
  18. Most of this applies to your question
  19. Keyboard shortcut J toggles the scrub tool With the scrub tool enabled, click-drag plays notes in the PRV
  20. From https://www.cakewalk.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/2007013355/SONAR-X3d-Update With X3e and newer (including CbB) the VideoEngine sets the default engine but when DirectShow encounters an unsupported format the DAW falls back to the Media Foundation engine.
  21. Chances are the file being loaded cannot use the DirectShow engine. If this is the case rather than error, CbB automatically switches to the Media Foundation engine.
  22. The position in the ini file should not matter. When VideoEngine is set to 0 CbB tries using the DirectShow engine but if it cannot load the file it will automatically fall back to the Media Foundation engine.
  23. I do not have Cubase to test but to make this work in CbB, the transport must be running.
