1 Hatstand Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Hi there, it would be helpful if you can provide more details. What virtual controller do you mean? Screenshots might also be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 tecknot Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Hi Volodymyr, Try pressing Ctrl+Tab to toggle through any open windows in Cakewalk. It's possible that the virtual controller is behind the Track View. If that doesn't do it, try setting Workspaces to none. Kind regards, tecknot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Nigel Mackay Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) Play, Record, etc is not being done through the virtual controller. The virtual controller simulates a MIDI keyboard. If the virtual controller is open and has focus, pressing K plays a C note. And pressing L will play a D note.

1 John Vere Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 The virtual controller is found in the views menu. You can choose a piano or QWERTY keyboard. It does seem to disappear sometimes but if you choose the piano version then pressing computer keyboard won’t toggle terrible things don’t use the computer keyboard. It’s dangerous!

1 Nigel Mackay Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 It sounds like reinstalling Cakewalk might be a good idea. It is a painless experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 scook Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Instead of using the keyboard shortcut, try opening the controller from main menu View > View Controllers With the computer keyboard virtual controller active, keyboard shortcuts like "K" are pre-empted by the controller. The keystroke must go to either the controller or the DAW. It cannot go to both at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can interact, cant see and close. Edited March 16, 2021 by Volodymyr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no ideas how get it. Toggling pages do them unfocused, it means that controller is there. Nothing helps. I`m like a fisherman who trying to catch a window, hidden deep inside project page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
