Could somebody tell me the elementary steps , to just record two tracks on Cakewalk ?

That's a fairly generic question. What do you know already? What equipment do you have? What do you want to record?

Check out the tutorials page too.

This is a loaded question with many variables. A better explanation of what your trying to do would help your cause and produce more in-depth suggestions.

For example. Are you trying to record 2 audio tracks or 2 midi tracks ? Im guessing 2 audio tracks. How are you sending the signal into Cakewalk ?

You need to insert 2 audio tracks into a blank project. You need to make sure the inputs are set to your device (soundcard) although they should default to your device, that soundcard path needs to be set up in preferences.

Your tracks must be armed and possibly input echo engaged if your using Amp sims.

Another note- you might not need 2 audio tracks if you are only simply trying to make a stereo track. Cakewalks Audio tracks are stereo compatible.

Using an acoustic guitar, you can record the built in pickup on one track and a miked acoustic on a second track and then listening to them in stereo.
