thats not it, but thank you.

I downloaded this and tried it. Included a video above and below in my first post and down below (same video). Can't say I really know how to read it though. There was nothing in the Bottleneck and Burdened By yet I seem to have a drive that is all red though I don't know how to tell which drive it is.

yes, done this.

here is a video -glitches start about 20 seconds end and will eventually stop Cakewalk. My i5 with only 16gb RAm doesn't have this problem.

Hi everyone I don't know if I am in the wrong forum. The posts seem to be from a few months ago. Maybe I got behind and got lost. f you are still active I have some questions for you regarding my computer. I am still using my 12 year old i5 and it has been working flawlessly even though I use high powered synths like Omnisphere and others and some orchestrations up to 100 track count. Got a new computer and it is much faster, newer, Windows 11 -64GB RAM and works flawlessly unless I put much on/it, and then chokes even if I raise the latency to 512 -and I am using RME and MOTU AVB interfaces which are known for great latency. I have a tech (and saw a video) about real time performance and it shows the culprit could be the drive I am recording to and try an internal drive. I tried an internal drive and same probl;em. Of course I didn't try moving all of my synth libraries to the internal -just the recording chain. it's really sad. It's the second time I have tried and don't seem to be able to successfully get a new computer working flawlessly. Could it be one of the sticks of RAM? The technician didn't want to try checking yet because it seems the going thought is it is either the interface or the drive, though both interfaces work great on the old computer, and the same type of external SSD drive. Hopefully yours if you have heard of this problem.

all good stuff. I actually just did this with the computer that now freezes -it is my backup, and just like you my old computer runs better. It took me off and on a few days to install everything on the new computer but since its done, I will fix it. Thank you

excellent. I really appreciate the time you have taken.

Thanks Bristol. I have a tech coming in 24 hours. I will get it working and give the WINDOWS 11 thought 10 months to brew.

my MOBO is ok. Think its better to swap out the CPU and then I'm good to go? This is homemade Desktop. How will you be careful?

thanks. How does one be careful? Use a third party security system?

so what will you do?

I am and have been a music producer for many years. I assume I will have to get a new computer as after October Windows 11 is in the house. My backup computer is freezing a lot (Windows 10Pro) 64G RAM, 17-7700k 4 Core 4.20 GHZ and a tech is coming to look at it and is telling me to buy a new computer instead as it is not compatible after next October. My main computer is an i5 and has been working daily for 12 years -new SSD Drives, RME Interface. I am here in Japan with nobody to talk to and would love to meet with someone in Zoom soon to see/hear my options. I toss these two good machines? Keep the best as a backup and don't go online and buy one new one? I have "read the manual" but my backup computer is very good with 64GB RAM and if there is anyway to avoid moving forward to 11. The techs concern is if I have to get a new computer in only 10 months, why put money into this incompatible one. Finances are a big concern as I do a lot of things to help people for low budget so need the cheapest professional way out. I have all the best VST's money can buy and some of course CPU extensive. To reiterate, I am a musician and not a geek and no longer work for labels who take care of these things for me so could use some help and am willing to pay for the time as well as help you with your mixes, keyboards, backing vocals, etc. Would be wonderful if it could happen soon as the tech is coming Japan time Saturday 28th 5:00 which is EST Friday 3:00 am. Hopefully yours, Michael

Hi. This is most often when I have a lot of tracks especially (only when) using Omnisphere ann some heavy processing programs. The song sounds ok but the measures are kind of stuttering. If you close Cakewalk and go back in it always fixes it. Is there another way? I tried toggling FX, PDC master buttons but doesn't help.

Bristol Jonesy you have made my day -and saved me so much time. I use keyboard shortcuts all the time and saved them all in a file, but adding a new one is often daunting. Please message me if you need any help with music, keys, mixing, your dog. Much appreciated.

I'm not catching this. How to I get to those places you are talking about? I have a shortcut the volume envelope on/off toggle but I can't find clip gain. Where is Toggle Track? Where is the edit filter? Where is Track View Area?
