Cakewalk tt1 not playing any sound

[Jellybeantiger]

I added a classical midi file to Cakewalk  then added the TT1 vsti and routed my midi tracks to it but no sound.

 

I can see the green metres working on all the midi tracks but there is no sound.

 

I find the routing in Cakewalk much harder to get to grips with than Reaper.

I actually did work this out ?

Output routing on the TTS-1? Any other synth work?

Insert the SI Bass Guitar. Open the GUI and click on the strings. You should hear the notes sounding.

If not, screenshot of Preferences -> Audio -> Devices.

Did you add a TTS track?

Here is the easiest way to setup a MIDI file in Cakewalk.

It will also demonstrate how to configure TTS-1 to play the file.

• Make sure no MIDI output device is select in preferences
• Use File > Open to open the MIDI file

That icon with midi and something else combined,confuses the hell out of me.

 

In Reaper I load the multi vstis and there is a drop down box where I can select midi channel amount and also audio output tracks for the vsti multi instrument and bang ,it’s done..

 

I really need a tutorial on multi instrument vsti loading and what to select when loadung that vsti and what tracks to get them to work?

 

So confusing Cakewalk’s multi channel routing ,eepecially that combined channel with the two icons,midi and audio.

Do I load 16 of those combined channels,16 midi and audio and if I do load 16 midi and audio,how do I get them to link up with the multi vsti?

I think I will stick with Reaper because it feels more intuitive to me.

You should use Reaper because Cakewalk doesn’t work like Reaper judging by your complaining in 3 other threads.
If you don’t take the time to watch a few videos on the basics or better yet open the documentation using the built in Help module your going to struggle. So far all your complaints are user inexperience related. Cakewalk is complicated and 3 x more powerful than Reaper. It takes time so relax , start watching the tutorials and you’ll be cruising along in a week or so
