CDK Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Lately I've encountered one of the most frustrating bugs I've ever experienced with Cakewalk. If I select a group of notes (either in Staff view or Piano Roll view) and apply the MIDI Plugins | Uncategorized | Velocity plugin to raise or lower the velocities say by -10 or +10 (the number doesn't matter), each event I have selected will be doubled and the velocity will remain unchanged. The only way to resolve it seems to be to quit and restart the program which frankly I don't have time for anymore. It's not a guaranteed fix anyway. Sometimes I quit, restart and the problem remains. It happens with every update and has become so disruptive to my workflow I'm considering abandoning Cakewalk for good and switching to another DAW. Anyone else experienced this? Edited August 30, 2020 by CDK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmcleod Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I've tried to reproduce with various settings and cannot reproduce this issue. Can you post a more detailed recipe, i.e. exactly what steps did you perform for this to happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol_Jonesey Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Nope, works as expected here I've been using the Velocity plugin for years without issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scook Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 To change velocity for selected notes, I usually opt for the Event Inspector method described here it can set all selected note to a particular value, add/subject or scale values Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
equality Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I have exactly the same bug when I use Cakewalk velocity MFX plugin. Frustrating, a very useful tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
