DallasSteve Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I just updated my version of Cakewalk this week. I notice what I think is an error in the selection range. In the image below I show that the first note is cut off in the selection range and the note from the start of the next bar is included. I'm 99% sure it didn't do that before. Do others see this behavior or is there a problem in my installation? I've tried contacting Cakewalk support about a problem in my installation this week and they've stopped responding to me. I haven't been nasty to them, but I am disappointed with their lack of response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vere Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) 3:01 is the very first tick of measure 3. It is the 1 of 1, 2 ,3,4. The downbeat. That's how M:B:T works. Measure, Beat, Ticks You are thinking of H:M:S:F Hours, Minutes, Seconds, Frames where 3:00 is the start of the 3rd minute.

Most likely the selected notes actual start times are one or more ticks left of the grid. Try lasso selecting the notes (Right click and drag). The actual selection range will then show in the module. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DallasSteve Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 I dug into the Events view and I see that the notes are all :959, one tick before the beat. I created those notes in Piano Roll View. I didn't intentionally shift them one tick earlier. I haven't changed my method of operating. Can you suggest why the events got drawn this way? Does it have something to do with the 2 Ticks setting near the top? I didn't do anything to that and I don't know if that's the default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmcleod Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Maybe you hit nudge by accident? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a little strange because the only way you get a duration that small by having Last Touched set in which case it would only stay that small until you drew a longer note. In any case, the draw duration shouldn't have any bearing on where the start times snap. I would have to go with Mark's suggestion that you inadvertently nudged the whole clip at some point.

DallasSteve Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 I haven't intentionally used Nudge. Is there a keyboard shortcut or button I might have hit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasSteve Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 I guess I better dig into the Events for all the tracks and nudge any back to 0 tick to prevent future mishaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baay Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Num Keys on the 10-key pad nudge by default if Numlock is off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasSteve Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Hmm. My laptop doesn't have a 10-key pad so I guess it wasn't that. Edited March 9, 2022 by DallasSteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user 905133 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Am I misreading your event list? I am seeing duplicated notes. If I am reading that correctly, are the duplicated notes intentional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am reading that correctly, are the duplicated notes intentional? I didn't see that. It wasn't intentional, Maybe it was a copy/paste error. I'll clean that up. Is there a CAL program or something that searches for duplicate notes? Edited March 9, 2022 by DallasSteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user 905133 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Not sure if it will solve the problem, but might be worth trying to fix. As for a CAL script to help, I defer to others who use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjoens Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 You could quantize them. Are you using Snap To when creating notes? I've had occassional issues where Snap is off a minute amount and won't snap correctly without quantizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
