There have been several threads about this over the last couple of days. BandLab is aware of the problem and working the issue.

If running CbB 2020.09 or newer use the in-app update process If running an older version of CbB use the Cakewalk Web Installer The Cakewalk Web Installer handles first time installs too.

It is true the plug-in is difficult to maintain but I suspect there are quite a few users who find it handy for playing MIDI files. Regardless, the problem described in the OP could be a symptoms of a larger issue with the software after Opining on the utility of TTS-1 may miss the point of the OP.

If I am reading the OP correctly the larger issue is power conditioning If this means the PC lost power, a UPS is in order. A good UPS is much cheaper than the time spent maintaining a PC suffering from unreliable power.

DX plug-ins must be the same bitness as the host. There has been a 64bit version of TTS-1 since the first release of 64bit SONAR over 15 years ago.

So it's day 2 of a project that indicated re-install. How much time should be invested in this alternate strategy? A simple uninstall/reinstall takes is a few seconds + download time. If reinstalled using the Cakewalk Web Installer, the full CbB installer will be available for future use like maybe a clean uninstall/reinstall if the simple uninstall/reinstall does not solve the problem. If a clean install is required. See this post to avoid losing 3rd party VST plug-ins in the default Cakewalk folder If uninstalling is a problem, run the 2021.06 rollback (found in the 2021.09 announcement) and the 2021.04 rollback (found in the 2021.06 announcement) then update to 2021.09. This too will download and run the full 2021.09 installer.

The label for Velocity is Vel+. Velocity cannot be automated so toggling offset mode does not affect it. FYI, by default the letter O is not bound to anything.

This is an older VST2 version of the plug-in. All the Softube PC modules are regular VST2 plug-ins that pull double duty as PC modules. Unfortunately Softube broke PC module compatibility over a year ago and they have no intention of fixing it. As noted above the VST3 works. Thanks for nothing Softube. Worst support ever. Update: I have heard Softube has fixed the problem but there is no release date. Until then, the only solution is run an older release.

GroovePlayer is the metronome and does not appear in the plug-in lists. WRT, TTS-1 not showing up in the plug-in lists, did you clear out the old tmp files from the plug-in layout folder?

try the Cakewalk Web Installer

Since the plug-in still works in existing projects, it feels like a registry problem. Try unregistering the plug-in then re-register it. To unregister the plug-in at the command line as administrator type regsvr32 /u C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared DXi\TTS-1\TTS-1.dll

I just noticed this. How comfortable are you with regedit?

To switch plug-in layouts click the triangle on the right side of the plug-ins tab It may be a corrupted layout. The "Sort by" layouts are cached as tmp files in the plug-in layouts folder. The default location for the plug-in layouts folder is "%appdata%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Plug-in Menu Layouts" The path is stored in Preferences > File > Folder Locations. Shut down CbB Delete the tmp files from the plug-in layouts folder. This will force CbB to rebuild the layouts on startup.

Preferences > Audio > Playback and Recording

Did you create that layout yourself? Try switching layouts by clicking the triangle on the right side of the plug-in tab.

The slider is disabled when running WASAPI Shared or an ASIO driver that does not support buffer size request by the DAW. If running WASAPI Shared change driver mode to WASAPI Exclusive. If running ASIO change the buffer size in the ASIO client software.

Which plug-in layout are you using?

Lower the audio buffer size in Preferences > Audio > Driver Settings or the audio interface software.

If TTS-1.dll is still in "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared DXi\TTS-1" you could try re-registering the plug-in by opening up a command window as administrator and typing regsvr32 C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared DXi\TTS-1\TTS-1.dll If the file is not there or fails to register, a simple uninstall/reinstall using BA (or uninstall from Windows and use the Cakewalk Web Installer) should bring it back.

Bandlab is aware of the issue. Thinking it may be a problem with BandLab Assistant, I sent an email to @Jonathan Sasor and he replied in one of the threads. AFAIK, nothing has changed WRT the installers and the initial thought was the MS redistributable libraries were messed up but this does not appear to be the case. I am sure there will be a solution to the problem but it may take a few days.

The problem is the images are on an unsecured server. In Edge Under Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Insecure Content Add https://www.cakewalk.com to Allowed

The Cakewalk Web Installer has not been officially released, however; the EA version is available.

I doubt that will help. Others have tried reinstall and updating MS libs. In the last couple of days there have been two other threads about this It is unusual.
