Ok, I understand. Thanks! Glad to help!

Noel, I continue to have crashes, but this time is not Amplitube related. I'm starting to use remote recording plugins, as Connection Open and Audiomovers. This time the crash happened when trying to insert a track template with Audiomovers Listento plugin inserted. Enclosed the screenshot and the dump file. Thanks!

Thanks! I did check and the file is correct. Enclosed the image.

Thanks Noel! Very helpful. I'll redirect the Amplitube issue to IK Multimedia then. --- "The second file is a crash in the prochannel bus compressor on one of your buses. I'd like to investigate this further, so if you can reproduce this please let me know. Its hard to say what caused the crash just by looking at the dump file but the plugin's internal state is corrupted so its possible that heap corruption caused the issue. Unhandled exception at 0x00000000471E5CB7 (PCS-BusCM.dll) in TyC 0205 Patiamigos v3 1-6_04052021_171612.dmp: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xFFFFFFFE47227160." Ok, I´ll try to reproduce it. If successful, I'll send you the dump file. --- "All your other dump files in the public.zip are caused by you running with an old automation dll. Are you using an old version of @scook utilities to load the application? Perhaps you have already fixed this since your other dump file doesnt have this issue. If not reinstall Cakewalk since you have a wrong dll there which is going to cause crashes. The dump shows that you have a different version of cw130Auto.dll." Nop, I'm not using scook utilities. My Cakewalk version is the latest: 2021.01 build 098, 64 bit --- Thanks a lot!

Got it. I was misled because the "Mix Enables Option" has the select bus options available. Now I understand. Looking forward for this option to be implemented. Thanks Noel

Hi, I'm trying to export several stereo tracks at once, using the Track Source Category in the export dialog window. All tracks are routed to a Bus containing the Adaptive Limiter plugin. The thing is that the exported audio is not going thru the limiter, therefore the audio is not properly exported. I have checked all the boxes in the Mix Enables options to make sure that the audio is being processed all the way thru the bus (see picture) If I export track by track using the Entire Mix Source Category, the audio is exported right. May be I'm missing something? I tried to find a Signal Flow Chart to double check the signal flow, but apparently is missing in the online help (https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=4&help=Mixing.07.html) Thanks!

Thanks a lot - I'll do that.

Hi, I've been having a lot of crashes in a project, and the crash window refers to a problem with Amplitube plugin, an Amp simulation plugin. Enclosed the minidump file. I'll appreciate any help. Thanks!! Andres TyC 0205 Patiamigos v3 1-6_04052021_171612.zip

Got it: at first I just copy-paste the 4 new modules, and of course it didn´t work, so I did copy-paste all the modules of the Select Tool Tungsten Theme into my edited theme and voilá. Got it - Thanks a lot.

Great - Thanks! I'll give it a try.

Hi! Haven´t find the way to change the width of the Select module... I go as far as to find the Control Bar /Modules / Select / Background (large) within the Theme Editor, and get stuck. Should I edit it in Photoshop? - thanks!

... and a snapshot of the export video configurations that always works for me. H.264 codec is the best I came across. Using this configurations I manage to work really smoothly with video inside Blb.

... All the video related tasks described above refers to using a video editor to prepare your personal copy before importing into Cakewalk.

I work a lot in projects involving video and syncing music to it. No problems at all, providing that: 1. the video is encoded with mp4 codec and you have your windows codecs up to date. 2. You add a blank space at the beginning of the video to provide room for any pre roll you need for your music. 3. The exported video is not too heavy (for your computer configuration). 4. The other thing, for accurate frame syncing is to reexport your video file with as little as 1 frame in the Keyframe distance option of your video editing. This ensure that when advancing your video frame by frame (in the video window of Cakewalk) , the video doesn´t jump several frames. Once you get the video right, just import it, and it should play smoothly, using little resources. If you get it right once, to get it right for ever. For the music composition task, I find useful this: 1. Lock completely the audio track imported along the video, to ensure that it doesn't change position when you change your tempo. 2. Mark your video syncing spots using the markers feature and lock them, for the same reason. Sure, it would be nice if someday this wonderful DAW could just move the video in the timeline and lock it...! Hope this helps!

Also, you can select all the notes and drag with your mouse until you get the desired length. All notes will be shortened.

I have problems too with Bandlab Assistant updating itself. Doesn´t work. I had to download directly from Bandlab website. https://www.bandlab.com/products/desktop/assistant

...and to access this menu, press I or open the Inspector Tab, usually located at the left side of the track View. You should select your instrument track on the Track Pane to see the corresponding controls.

Wow, that is good news Noel! Thanks for the work involved. --- Glad to help!

Hi Noel: Here is some additional info: the crashes occurs using the VST3 versions. Apparently with the VST2 there is no problem - Good luck!

Hi, Noel. I’ve got some new information: The crash occurs only when deleting an instance of the Vienna Synchron Player Plugin AND USING IN ANY WAY IN COMBINATION WITH TRACK TEMPLATES (Save track template / load track template), as long as there are TWO instances of the plugin loaded using track template commands, and deleting the second of any of the instances - WEIRD! When inserting the plugin from the Insert/Soft Synth menu, it works fine, no matter how many instances are loaded in the project, as long as Track Templates are not involved. BdLb crashes in the same way when Saving Track Templates, as I reported in another post. To reproduce the crash: 1. Insert Synchron Player 2. Create (save) a track template Close BdLab, Re Open 3. Insert Synchron Player track template Instance #1 4. Insert Synchron Player track template Instance #2 5. Delete one Instance of Synchron Player 6. (sometimes Bdlb crashes here) 7. Delete second instance of Synchron Player 8. (More Often BdLab crashes here) Enclosed a new mini dump file. Untitled_09122020_145435.dmp

Hi Noel, thanks for your answer. Good to know that there is an explanation! The crash happens every time I delete a Synchron Player instance, no matter if it's a new project or not. It happens every time, so it's very easy to reproduce. In the meanwhile, I'll try the VST2 plugin instead of the VST3, as suggested by other user.

I have 32 Gb RAM. Some plugins, like Omnisphere, use a LOT of RAM. Others, not so much, so it depends on your particular setup. If your setup is full of VST's, the extra RAM is a blessing. Anyway, when I upgraded to 32 Gb, I really experience a big leap in terms of speed and reliability. Now I can load a LOT of VST's without struggle.

This a professional grade DAW. Yes, it takes time to learn it. If you do so, you probably will find it extremely easy to use.

Yes, same here with the arranger hanging. Haven´t tried with the latest update. It's supposed to be fixed.

Sure! ... sorry, how do I send a PM? didn't find the link - Untitled_09102020_191231.dmp
