Cakewalk Drag & Drop Issue: Missing Plugin Properties Window

[Yudi Musik]

Hi everyone. I need some help. When I drag and drop a plugin like a drum instrument into the Cakewalk interface, no properties window appears; it just gets applied directly. This means I can't adjust MIDI settings or create 16 channels for my drums. Any suggestions?

Which version of Cakewalk software are you using? In Cakewalk Sonar, after inserting the synth open the Synth Rack View and click the round-ish Insert soft synth options button, set the options the way you want, and then put a check in the Ask This Every Time box. Then the synth properties for the synth should open when you insert a synth.

In the Synth Rack, there is an icon to the left of the name field.  Click that icon and you will see the Insert Synth options.

At the bottom left of this screen, click the selection “Ask this every time”.
