Synth Preview Output uses the synths in the project.

I remember discussing this with AAS. They may hard code the Cakewalk path in their installers. IIRC, they claimed there was some problem if they did not do it. Another thing to check is VSTPluginsPath in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VST.  Some installers use the path in this entry. Some modify the entry.

Double check were AAS installs dlls. In the past, I have seen it duplicate files putting them in the manufacturer folder under the VST folder and in the root of the VST folder. Not a big deal but one copy of the of binaries is enough.

The binding was removed years ago to prevent users from accidentally enabling the feature. By default "O" is free and the function is not bound so it is possible to create the old shortcut.

To see the standard header for a 32bit VST, hold the ALT key while opening the plug-in UI.

Usually the standard header window opens behind the plug-in UI window.

That said you would be better off Installing the 64bit version of Guitar Rig and any other plug-ins that have been updated to 64bit.

Enable the plug-in's MIDI Input in the VST2/3 drop down above the plug-in UI

Add a MIDI track, set the input to your controller, output to the plug-in and enable input echo

Cakewalk never sold Adaptive Limiter separately. BandLab has not released their version of the plug-in.

Are Windows and SONAR set to the same sample rate?

Does X3 work with the internal sound chip?

Probably won't make a difference...

Rename AUD.ini in %appdata%\Cakewalk\<SONAR version>

Try other driver modes

I did not make it clear that the initial click must be released to select the region before click-dragging the nodes. Failing to perform the initial click causes all nodes to move.

Using the smart tool when the icon changes near the top of the clip, click to select the region between the two nodes then drag to set the level like this

Select the audio and MIDI tracks and Bounce to Track(s)

Then archive the original audio and MIDI tracks.

Dropped MIDI notes may be the result of too low a Prepare Using: nnn Millisecond Buffers value. The default is 250, however; 500 or 750 often work better. Some use values as high as 10x the default.

Rapture must be activated. The serial number and registration code should be in your account. Did you try running the stand alone or the DAW as administrator when registering Rapture?
