Cakewalk Not Detecting MADI Tracks

[Ed Driscoll]

Hi there,

(I posted this to support, but I thought a member might be able to help me as well.)

When I set up my new computer late last month, I installed my RME Fireface UFX+ audio interface via USB 2.0, which gave me a limited number of tracks. I recently switched it over to USB 3.2. My Fireface GUI can now see the tracks that are coming in via my RME Octamic XTC MADI interface, and I can hear them as well, but these tracks aren't visible within Cakewalk. (They were previously, when I was connecting the audio interface via Thunderbolt on my previous computer)

Is there a way to get Cakewalk to search the audio interface options again without having reinstall Cakewalk from scratch, much like it does a VST scan, or some other approach to resolve this?

Thanks,

Ed

You are speaking of RME audiointerface channels not tracks. Tracks are in the CbB tracks view.

In Cakewalk preferences, Audio section, select Devices and enable channels you want. If you can't find them there or they are grayed, check Driver Model in the Playback and Recording.

Azslow3 is right. You must inform Cake you intend to use them.

Hi all,

Thanks for your suggestions, but it turned out to be a USB cable issue, and once I switched to a new cable, the MADI inputs are now visible on the Fireface TotalMix FX GUI, and in Cakewalk as well.

Regards,
