jono grant Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) Hi, please help! I'm having a very strange problem recording in Cakewalk from my UAD Apollo thunderbolt system. If I arm cakewalk with any "pair" of inputs, say 1 and 2 for instance, I get a very damaged sounding recording. If I disarm one of the inputs from the pair and just record one of them, the audio gets recorded fine. If I record on to tracks 1 and 3 (not a pair) the audio is fine. I thought it was a UAD issue but I don't get this problem if I record into Sound Forge or into Cubase. Something is causing Cakewalk to make a corrupt recording when choosing a pair of inputs (mono or interleaved) What could possibly cause this? PS. I'm an advanced user, so I've ruled out any other obvious stuff like sample rates etc. It's only when recording input pairs in CAKEWALK. What could it be? I'm attaching two mp3s, one is recorded to an odd set of inputs (sounds correct) and the other is recorded to a pair of inputs (audio is corrupt) Thanks 01 drum on input 1 and 3 sounds fine.mp302 Drum on input 1 and 2 sounds corrupted.mp3 Edited January 22, 2020 by jono grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono grant Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share Posted January 22, 2020 @Noel Borthwick Any idea about this noel? Could a setting be causing this behavior? Other DAWs I'm testing are not having this problem. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baay Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I thought it was fixed a some point , but I recall there being an issue recording stereo inputs with 'Remove DC Offset' enabled. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David, that was it!!! Thank you soooooo much! Can't believe that! @Noel Borthwick they should really remove that feature if it doesn't work. What's the point of it? I spent days trying to figure that out. Not sure if it's on by default but it shouldn't be... J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baay Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Glad to help. It's not on by default, and works with mono inputs as you noted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono grant Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share Posted January 22, 2020 Right, not on by default. Some might think it's a good feature to turn on. I must have! At the very least they should indicate in the help file that it causes this issue with input pairs. Thanks again! J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
