    Kick Cakewalk Around With Me For A Minute Please

    Bummer. Haven't tried CE yet. Is there not a way that you can add it to the .ini file?

    Kick Cakewalk Around With Me For A Minute Please

    There is nothing that you can do in an editor that Sonar can not handle with plug-ins, with the added benefit that it stays synchronised to the rest of the project. And yes, you can call an editor from Sonar. Most editors are added to the Tools menu when you install it. Just click on a clip...

    Project5 and Samples

    P5 can load only .wav files straight into the groove player, but for real sample libraries you would need more. DS864 can load wav iaf akp krz and sf2 banks. It it fine for those, but I use Livesynth Pro for soundfont (sf2) banks from inside P5. Depends on what format you have your samples in...

    Kick Cakewalk Around With Me For A Minute Please

    Just a thought. I love Cakewalk, but it all depends on your needs. Sounds like you are a Midi only guy. Cakewalk's strenght is the integration of a sequencer with midi and audio recording. If notation is all you need you can get away a lot cheaper, but then you will run out of options very...

    Cakewalk tutorials

    I like the "click on the button and see what happens" approach. Too lazy to read!! The software today howeve get so complicated and intimidating that I sometimes have to RFTM. Hope you find something good. Let us know.

    Cakewalk tutorials

    The best book I can recommend is Sonar Power. http://www.garrigus.com/ For dummies I strongly recommend that you work through the tutorials that are included in the help file with Cakewalk products before buying any books.

    Sonar 3 PE automation on mains out?

    Thanks. Yup, that's exactly what I found. Now we must start looking for that hidden switch because this is a real pain. Do you know how I can force each new audio track I insert to route automatically to bus A? I know how to do it "manually" after inserting the new track and then click on the...

    Sonar 3 PE automation on mains out?

    How can I put automation on the main out bus in Sonar 3 Producer edition? In Sonar 2.2 I used to be able to open the mains out in track view and put my automation envelope (e.g. main volume fade out) on the track view. In Sonar 3 I can only fine the mains out in the console view. I managed to...

    Sonars biggest letdown: effeciency after mixing or when a quick on-the-fly CD needed

    Don't be a sissy!! That trick is really only for those who can do 20 songs in 14 hours for 3 different projects. Normal people like me would be fine just making the changes in Sonar (just a few clicks more).

    Sonars biggest letdown: effeciency after mixing or when a quick on-the-fly CD needed

    This may sound like a bit of work initially, but it works fine once you got it set up. Sonar stores the deafault pths inside the registry, so first go to registry editor and export the following entry to a file: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR\2.0\UserPaths] My file...

    Sonars biggest letdown: effeciency after mixing or when a quick on-the-fly CD needed

    All very valid gripes. I'm not sure how I ever will be able to record and mix 20 songs in 14 hours. The 1 aspect where you can save lots of time is with your file management and backups. Make sure your Sonar is set to file manegement by project. When starting a large project like this, set your...

    Wrapped VST in Sonar...what works?

    If I had to list all the VST's that works in the wrapper, we would fill a couple of pages. It is only the exections that does not work. I would suggest that people rather list those (that does not work). One, most notable one that does NOT work in the Fxpansion / Cakewalk wrapper is the...

    Sonar piano roll view behaving badly

    Thanks for the replies. Moskus. The properties menu that comes up when I right-click is for note properties. Bluesmeister. I tried that. I created a new default template, but it does the same. In fact it does the same with all the templates. It can probably be a corrupt dll. I will re-install...
