Audio Engine Dropout

[tdehan]

I am trying to collaborate on a project with my guitarist.  He's downloaded and installed Bandlab Cakewalk.  I've sent him a MIDI file that I have multiple instrument tracks on created in Bandlab Cakewalk.  However, whenever he tries to open the MIDI file in Cakewalk he gets and error that says “Audio Engine Dropout”.

I have Cakewalk installed on 3 different computer and have never experienced that issue or error.

What can I suggest to him to try to remedy the issue?

Thanks

Ask him for the number in brackets after the audio engine drop out message, this will tell you the problem. In fact if he clicks help on this message it will take him to a list of what each number means also, they're not always easy fixes or 100% but somewhere to start for sure.

The number that shows in the error is '0'.

Chart for dropouts.  Sorry there is not more info on whatever is going on.  You can right click on that image below, and save it, in case you have other kinds of dropout messages:
