tjmicsak Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 How can I recover my old Cakewalk 2002 effects that were used on tracks I am importing into CW by BL? These were not outside VST but were the built-in FX in CWHS2002, but imported files into CW by BL are not there even though they are shown in the FX window. I also get the warning pop up when opening the files that those FX were not found. Can I import them off of the initial program CD still somehow?

scook Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 It depends. This is a pretty common problem when migrating projects to 64bit hosts. Pretty sure Cakewalk Home Studio 2002 was 32bit. If the plug-ins are VST format, they will load into CbB. If the plug-ins are DX format, they will not load into CbB. My guess is they are DX plug-ins. You could install Cakewalk Home Studio 2002 load the projects in it and swap out the plug-ins for 3rd party VST plug-ins, hopefully new ones that have both 32bit and 64bt versions. Keeping a 32bit host around while transitioning to 64bit is handy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Welcome home to Cakesville. Your best hope is probably going to be to copy the list of FX that are missing from a project and replace them with ones with similar functionality. There are many good bread-and-butter FX that come with Cakewalk by BandLab, and the www is a cornucopia of good freeware ones. The one from the '20's may even sound better than the 2002 ones.
