WIn 10, Scarlett18i20 We need more information. Detailed PC specs? Audio interface settings (sample rate, bit depth and buffer size) Latest drivers for your Scarlett? (https://downloads.focusrite.com/focusrite) Plugins used and how many tracks? Bitness of plugins (32bit or 53bit:) Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The devs don't seem to care. ? Most likely culprit is plug-in incompatibility. I choose my words carefully, because I'm beginning to understand that "it's probably a plug-in" is too often read as "it's the plug-in's fault, Cakewalk is never to blame." The issue is that they're not playing nice together. I have at least one plug-in that works fine in other programs but with Cakewalk, needs to be used in VST2 form only. Otherwise it generates horrible screeching, which I do want sometimes, but not unintentionally from a chorus effect. The VST specs are loose enough that both pieces of software can be compliant and still fall down and go boom. A plug-in can expose a flaw in Cakewalk and vice-versa. Look at the Cakewalk update release notes to see the changes made to Cakewalk so it can work with certain plug-ins. As a practical matter, the thing to do is first try the operation with all FX disabled, then if it works, begin whittling down the plug-ins you're using until you find which one the operation is choking on. A VSTi may be what's not playing nice, but that happens less often. At that point, you can report to both the plug-in manufacturer and the Cakewalk devs that there seems to be a compatibility problem. The plug-in devs obviously have easy access to the freeware Cakewalk, and the Cakewalk devs can usually get an NFR license for testing purposes from plug-in developers (one of the perks of being a software developer ?).

I am glad you knew I meant 64bit....... but everything else you mention does apply to the 32bit ones..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
