The link has been updated. The latest EA (build 22) is also available as an in-app update (Help > Check for Updates). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechDad Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) Installed Update 22. It plays files, but when paused the whole program hangs for several minutes, then comes back to life. Every time a project was opened and the playback was stopped the program hangs. I know sometimes the account needs to be reactivated to avoid some issues, so I tried reactivating but the process failed. I reverted to previous version, then reactivated account and reinstalled Update 22. Stopping playback doesn't hang the program any longer. It appears Update 22 doesn't process account reactivation and relies on it to function properly.

Jim Fogle Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) I just updated to build 22. The in-program toast prompt for the update worked properly. The file prompt to activate on computer Help works properly. Thanks for the on computer Help. I dislike using internet Help since it continues to display a pop-up announcing the old Cakewalk site is frozen.

Cédric Lawde Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Yes. Bandlab account is ok. I've check my izotope plugs and, as usual, its Ozone who freeze the system. No Cakewalk sorry. iZotope is heavy bugued... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can verify by logging out of BandLab in CbBand retesting. Let us know if you can reproduce this. Perhaps its only when the program is in a state where it needs activation?

If you send a dump file while the app is in a frozen state we may be able to find what is causing the hang, 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjoens Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 All I can say is, if you overcomplicate something, confusion will entail. If you then change that overcomplicated something to something even more complicated, confusion will yield to frustration. - ConfusedOne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Borthwick Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 That would imply that the issue is not within Cakewalk. The app cannot hang windows itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User 905133 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) The sizing/scaling has worked well on my PC for several years, so I really don't want to change my PC's settings so I don't get this with the new offline help system: Does CbB have a parameter I can change that only affects how much of the help text is within the banner's dark background and how much is below it? (Not a big issue, I can use on-line help and the reference guide pdf.) Edited June 11, 2022 by User 905133 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John T Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I never quite have the time to get involved in the whole EA business, but just want to say 1/ thanks to all who do, especially the developers of course, and 2/, this: Quote Automatically extend final take when loop recording in Comping mode ... is such a small, subtle, but brilliant improvement. This kind of workflow-focussed stuff is gold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.r Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) POSSIBLE BUG: I have MIDI clip with some notes and controllers, I select it and do Process>Length by 50% (start times and durations left checked, I only untick stretch audio, whether it matters or not, idk) as a result all controllers data that was before and/or after any notes in the clip are deleted. Am I missing some settings? Edit: just checked further, stretch audio doesn't matter. Any setting by less than 100% will crop any controllers data that sticks out before or after the notes in a clip. Settings by 100% or more keeps the controllers. It must be bug ? Edited June 12, 2022 by chris.r 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampires At Dawn Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Hi there, This is my first post to the forum since the Bandlab takeover. I’ve been a Cakewalk die-hard since 2004. I’m having a serious issue with the beta. Every project I have that contains a midi instrument has this new behavior. I don’t know if it’s a bug, but if it isn’t, I’d love to turn it off. If select a track in the console view, the audio and midi channels in the Track view will expand. Even if I touch a plugin in a bus in the console view, the last midi instrument selected will expand in the track view. It gets even stranger in that, I can save the project with a midi instrument selected, with the entire folder collapsed, then close the project. When I reopen the project, that instrument will be fully expanded when the project loads. I don’t know if I’m explaining this well, but it’s really frustrating to have to keep closing folders all of the time just because I adjusted something on a bus. Please know that I am grateful for any help that can be provided. I certainly don’t want to seem like I’m complaining. I really am trying to help the beta. If I need to submit images, I can. I’m hopeful that someone has seen this although it doesn’t seem like it was mentioned in the previous posts. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The behavior I'm seeing is not that the tracks expand, but rather if a track is in a folder and I click on its strip in Console View, the folder that the track is in will open. I can't see any reason for this behavior. I don't know whether it's new or not, but I don't care for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
