I just installed Cakewalk SI and A. No matter where I put .dlls or show them to Reaper it won't find them in my VST plugins. B. I can drag and drop a loop from Cakewalk into Reaper (although they aren't truly working 'together' and Cakewalk has to be manually set to the same beat) but it will...

In one song I successfully set up the envelope so that when I moved the fader on one track it recorded my moves beautifully, up down, all around so to speak. But on this new song it will only allow me to move up or down in the envelope and THAT volume is what I get throughout the envelope. It...

Their beta drum kit looks interesting, but after downloading I can't find the dlls I need as it comes in something called a .RAR file. The designer is no help as he points you to his 'forum' which is pretty much inoperative and inoperable. I don't have a problem with all of that since I just...

After rendering several songs what is the simplest way to assure they all have the same or similar volumes after being burned to a CD? Do you somehow 'normalize' all the 'masters?

Has anyone tried this with Reaper? Reaper isn't listed as supported but it says: Use it as a stand alone program or with your favorite Mac/PC music recording software like: •Ableton Live™ •Apple GarageBand™ •Apple Logic™ •Cakewalk Music Creator™ •Cakewalk Kinetic™ 2 •Cakewalk Project5™...

I was using Reaper last night. Opened it today and I can hear myself but show no input. When I click to select an input nothing happens. It won't open the mono, stereo, selection box etc. Help. It will show me Midi input options but not mono or stereo. This is weird that it just started doing...

I finished the 330 page manual today. Whew... I've been playing with multiple tracks, compression, EQ, chorus, etc. and I'm impressed. This is a much more user friendly program than the Cubase my audiogram came with. Everything seems pretty easy to figure out with a little practice except one...

I've been having static issues between my recently purchased audiogram 6 and Cubase AI4 so I thought I'd try Reaper. I just tried recording a track and it showed me that it was getting input saw lots of little hills and valleys, but playing back I could hear nothing. Where do I tell it which...

Anybody else had this problem? I've been trying to register with Steinberg for a week. I go through the rigamarole on their registration page, then when I type in the security code it loops me back and tells me I put the code in wrong. The thing is (and this is rather nifty in a Twilight Zone...

So. I figured out my latency issues by using the metronome. Even managed to add a drum track. Now I have a new issue.... I know. It's endless. I started a new project and recorded one stereo track of vocal and guitar. No issue. Then halfway through adding a mono track of 1 background vocal the...

For what I want to do this looks like all the drums I need. IF I can get it to work. Cubase finds it, even gives me a dedicated audio track for it, but then when I drag and drop (or rather try to) a drum beat into that track it puts the drum track in a dedicated midi instrument track I have to...

When I'm recording shouldn't I see input levels on the specific mixer for the track? I can see the main input level go up and down. I can see the levels for the other recorded tracks as I record along, but not input for the track being recorded. Is this standard?

In the hopes of getting my latency issue resolved I downloaded a 2.8 version of ASIO here. http://www.usb-audio.com/ I have Win 7 running Cubase AI4 and using a Yamaha Audiogram 6. The new ASIO was so crystal clear it blew my mind and it lowered my latency to like 11 ms but I still got a...

Being a newbie (and because I can't figure out how to set up mono tracks) I've been recording all in stereo. I know. Goofie. But when I click record on stereo I record. When I click record on mono I get no input. What silly thing have I missed? This is Win 7 running Cubase AI4 and using a Yamaha...

I have Cubase 4.5.2 running Windows 7 and it seems to work pretty well except for the latency. No way I can record voice on one track and guitar on another. I have to record both on the same track. I can get away with another track for harmonica and lead, but trying to slip in another guitar or...
