0 Duncan Gardiner Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 I found the answer: The project had been opened as a MIDI project not a Normal Cakewalk project. This makes sense now I know but why did it let me create instrument tracks and save them? This was a couple of hours of work. A warning would have been useful.

0 Will. Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Did you save the file accordingly? Prehaps you did not save it as a CWP file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 user 905133 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) I just duplicated this as follows: Open a midi file. Insert a soft synth. Point the midi file to the soft synth Save using Save, not Save As which allows users to change the file format. The presumption seems to be that users will know to change the file format, but new Cakewalk users might not realize that. Perhaps you want to put that in as a feature request--a warning that if a project has a soft synth that will be lost with the suggestion to use Save As to change to a Cakewalk file.
