Short answer...yes. There are several threads in the old forum about it. Here area a few links - http://forum.cakewalk.com/USB-Foot-Control-m3735786.aspx http://forum.cakewalk.com/I-would-like-to-set-up-a-foot-switch-to-punch-in-out-record-from-motu-device-in-Splat-m3616550.aspx http://forum.cakewalk.com/MIDI-Foot-Controller-for-Start-and-Stop-m3195641.aspx http://forum.cakewalk.com/The-Handy-Dandy-USB-foot-Controller-m2998482.aspx

There must be hundreds of reverb plug-ins. Not sure what will sound good to you. Have you tried the other two reverb plug-ins bundled with CbB, Sonitus fx: reverb and REmatrix solo?

This still may be something the plug-in manufacturer must address. Try creating a hang dump and supplying it to BandLab.

My guess is support for OpenGL will not be better with older drivers regardless the fix should work for drivers with the necessary OpenGL support but the plug-in graphics will run slower.

This is indicative of a video driver that does not support OpenGL 3.2 Fortunately, there is a config option for the LP EQ and LP MB to handle this - Go to C:\Cakewalk Content\LP EQ\Settings Open LPEQ.cws in notepad Locate the string EnableOpenGL="1" Change it to EnableOpenGL="0" and save the file Repeat the process for LP MB using the LPMB.cws in C:\Cakewalk Content\LP MB\Settings I do not have the other plug-ins and cannot offer any suggestion other than to contact the manufacturer. Their plug-ins may be looking for features not available in the video driver as well.

BA downloads installers into %appdata%\bandlab-assistant\Downloads and deletes them after they are run.

According to Noel this fixes several things As with all recent Melodyne releases, I save my old installers, just in case. Actually, I save all old installers regardless of the manufacturer.

yes

I suppose it is possible but can't say I have ever had the option re-enable as a result of updating SONAR or CbB. I have had the option off for years.

This is why I have previously suggested the "Input Echo" button and function be disabled on tracks where input is set to None regardless of the "Always Echo Current MIDI Track" setting. Until something like this is implemented, the best thing to do is make sure to turn off "Always Echo Current MIDI Track" in preferences.

I use the start screen but also wrote a replacement which allows me to launch projects using different versions of CbB (64 bit SONAR Platinum and Producer too). It also allows deleting entries from the CbB MRU used by the file menu/start screen and several ways to create and maintain lists of project, project template and MIDI files to display in the tool. The program is called Cakewalk LaunchPad and is available on my google page.

That sounds like the old Cakewalk web site. There is a link to the correct support page in the Cakewalk by BandLab menu at the top of this forum. There is also a post about contacting support in the FAQ area above

Those appear to be 32bit plug-ins. While the 32bit SI plug-ins should show up as instruments, the 64bit versions are bundled with CbB. Is it possible there is 32bit version of a Cakewalk Product also installed? If so, the best thing to do is remove the 32bit plug-in path(s) from the CbB VST scan path in preferences. If the 32bit path(s) must remain or these are really the 64bit plug-ins included with CbB somehow misidentified as 32bit FX plug-ins, try a VST reset on the same preferences page as the scan path entries.

The state of the dirty flag does not matter. Saving a project, saves the screen layout. However, because the dirty flag is not set, it is easy to leave a project without saving the screen layout if it was changed after the last save.

Both Perfect Space and VC-64 are 32bit plug-ins that have not been updated in years. I know there are those that treasure their old plug-ins but it is not too late to stop using them.

Make sure to save the project after changing the layout. Changing the screen layout does not dirty the project so closing a project or CbB will not display a save reminder.

FYI, the Elevate Mastering Bundle, another plug-in collection from Eventide on a different update schedule was updated April 9th (although Equivocate shows a May 17th update date). I do not recall seeing any announcement for this update (certainly don't expect one from Eventide - they are one of the worst in this regard). Both the bundle and EQ downloads are listed in the main download page link above.

Both of the above recommendations work fine. A no-cost collection of plug-ins that includes both a tone generator - MOscillator and a tool to independently control Left and Right track volume - MUtility is MFreeFXBundle.

No, Melodyne Essential, bundled with some versions of SONAR starting with X3, is a regular retail product with a non-expiring license. There is a time limited trial version of Melodyne available under "Install Add-ons"

Using screensets it is possible to toggle between the Track View and Console View with a single keystroke

The product this forum was created for - Cakewalk by BandLab

If the track plays without any plug-ins then the problem is the plug-in. I do not have STL Tonality so cannot guess what the issue is with the plug-in. It may be as simple as loading a preset. BTW, TH3 Cakewalk is included with CbB, it does have a demo of the full TH3 but that does not need to be activated to use the TH3 Cakewalk features. In fact, there is no reason to activate the demo as TH3 is not sold by Overloud any more. It was replaced with TH-U.
