Sonar X1 crashes every singel time it receives a sysx dump.

Console-view BUG over all problems with the GUI.

CWBRN-3577

 
First of all, all kinds of GUI are very slow and feel unstable in SONAR X1 right now. Unstable like we referring to "Lagg" if it were playing a video game.
I have and use a good NVIDIA graphic card so it should be that what is causing it? No, I think use of outdate "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" is more that couse it, and implantation of some functions.
 
 
Console view-- "Main" snap not as you left it? Not even in screenset lock or unlocked? It foreget if it were Wide or narrow view sometimes too?
What makes it even harder overall to work with is that you have implant "locked it" to an amount of a "pre" SNAPPING-graphical "value" on all borders in Console view, "Track" "Bus" and "Main"?
WHY? Its the same stupid feature as in Windows in "desktop"--->"Snap Icons on desktop"? Why? In windows you can unlock it but not in SONAR X1? Let us unlock it to floating Snap-view in Console, not "PRE"-Snap Step view. If I wanna display only half "track" let me. Its should be up to me, right! ;)
That is WHY causing this iritating problem in the first place.


 
In Console-View floating View second Monitor
*BUGs

1. "Main"-section change the "Section-Wide"-value, random in Locked or unlocked screenset?
2. "Wide or narrow "tracks" forget especially in MAIN-section, random in Locked or unlocked screensets.
3. "The graphic are slow" when you scroll and seem very unstable in use of many Pro Channels views in same time?
4. Many view IN CONSOLE-VIEW ----> The "Playback locater" "stutter" forward, unstable fashion in track view?

 
Seriously! Please FIX all kinds of graphical problems in SONAR X1 and stop use outdate Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Librarys!! As it is now, the graphic feels that SONAR X1 should crash and die while you working?

"Main"-view Console-view

CWBRN-3579

Unselect "MAIN" in "Console"-view doesn't remember status in differnet Screen sets? Don't know why it happens?
Lock or unlock screensets same result

Are there any BETA tester on CAKEWALK? I mean this very very simple bugs. How hard is it for a BETA TESTER to discover all this? Pay me instead to do the JOBB for you...
 
 
 
I hope it worth all the time and efforts it take making all this reports for FREE to Cakewalk? I hope you take all reports we do seriously. At least should Cakewalk say "Thank You".

When you move a node, small yellow box with the actual value of the parameter you are changing shows up. But it is refreshing itself with every mouse move so as a result, it is blinking constantly and it makes hard to read out the value. It is also changing its position along with the position of the mouse cursor.
It happens while moving envelope nodes, PRV view - moving notes, changing velocity.

It should stay in one position and the actual value should be visible while moving the node or changing the position of the note.
Imagine you want to set a volume envelope node to -15 dB. You start dragging the node down but you cannot see the actual value of dB for the node, because the yellow box is refreshing itself constantly while moving the node, and it is not visible until you stop moving the node. So you have to move-stop-move-stop the node until you "hit" the desired value. Very bad workflow and it looks very clunky.
The same happens in PRV view while moving around a note. You cannot see actual position of the note while moving it. Again, move-stop-move-stop workflo is required.

Turn on the Aim Assist, go to Envelopes mode and lasso select some nodes. The vertical Aim Assist's line is interfering with the lasso rectangle and while moving the mouse, it creates an ugly graphic blur.

PS! CWBRN-3587
Happen only if you select Save "FX Chain Preset" when the BUS or AUDIO Channel doesn't have loaded any "FX Chain" templet. I don't know why the OPTION are available in the menu when no FX Chain are present?

@ vksf01

Is it repeatable with any other soft synth?

Process / Apply MIDI Effects in menu doesn't work. Only available with right click on clip/ Process Effect

Possible Bug
In 8.5.3 when you freeze a synth you can freeze any effect plug-ins along with it which are bounced to a wave file and the plug-ins are then disabled. However when pro channel is used on a track where synth needs to be frozen it appears that it also is mixed down in wave file which is normal as in 8.5.3, however the pro channel is still active after the bounce this in effect means your bounced wave file being processed twice once in the bounced wave where its already been included in the mix then again through the pro channel causing distortion and clipped tacks.
 
Should the pro channel also be disabled after a bounce automatically?

Expand track folder in TV moves TV up to Track 1.

Gotta be a bug - why would it do that?

This would appear to have been fixed in X1A although it's not in the list of fixes.

CORRECTION:

IT MOST DEFINITELY HAS NOT BEEN FIXED AND IS EXTREMELY ANNOYING!!!

I've tried reporting this on the problem reporter page but that has er... a problem. I'll try again later but anyway. Not a show stopper...........

Description: Display bug in Transport module on metronome count-in

Actions to reproduce:

1. Assign the metronome to a MIDI note
2. Set up a metronome, count in period - I use 2 measures
3. Activate metronome on record.
4. Press record
5. Record for a while
6. Press Stop

Expected behaviour:

I would expect to see the time display in the transport module count down the count in and then change to time display.

Actual Behaviour:

The count in counts down to 1 and then stays there. The time display never returns it just displays "Press ESC to cancel: Count in 1"

Even if you can eventually get it back to time display it is still displaying the count-in message, over-written with the time display.

Does this on both my desktop Windows 7 x64 and laptop Windows 7 x32

EDIT:Problem reporter now fixed - CWBRN-3600

Confirmed. And why does this feature only work with the MIDI metronome? Is that intentional? I didn't even know about it, 'cause I never use the MIDI metronome.

In X1a:
CWBRN-3652 Clicking on FX in CV moves the FX to another track
1: After loading Floating Cori Yarckin demo, either as the supplied bundle or as a
saved project,
2: CV is floated outside MultiDock & maximised on screen 3 (all screens 1680x1050
res), all strips are narrow. CV view has tracks 1-19 displayed & buses 1-10 & 1
output strip displayed.
3: If there are no tracks selected, or any track other than 19 & I click (or double
click) on the FX "icon" for track 19 (GR) the FX is moved to track 36 & the CV view
scrolls to track 36. The same happens for any track (tracks 19 thru 24 tested) that
is up against the track/bus spliter as long as the track is not selected.
4: Moving the track/bus spliter bar (even if returned to original position) stops
the behaviour. Saving the file & reopening after moving the spliter prevents the
behaviour in future. If file not saved after spliter moved the behaviour remains on
reopening the file.
CV is set up as follows:
Modules: all on except icons; All narrow strips; Sends = 2; Eq plot=default
 
I think the behaviour occured in X1 too.
Can anyone confirm this behaviour? XP Pro SP3 (32bit) Specs in signature.
 
edit to add: same behaviour on Shify&TheBigShots_Lance_Jones sample project. Compressor on track 20 gets moved to track 38. 100% reproducible here.

Lasso select in the clips pane does not select both clips when two clips are overlapped. CWBRN-3656

I change the output to computer speakers but it always changes it back to headphones.  Hard to change it to speakers in the track view, best place to change it to Speaker output is in Console View.  Have to do this everytime I insert a Softsynth or bounce to track.  here should be a place where I can select my preference or identify a default so I never have to change it again.
