Very late to this thread.

Can't say what hasn't already been said but here are additional details with my 23 years experience with the program:

+1 for improvements to note-snapping for Staff Roll.  Cakewalk Home Studio was really good at this.  Having note snap set to 1/16 "To" mode and note length to 16th does not produce results as expected.  Example:  " 1 e & A " when laid down as expected with expected timings: "1:01:000, 1:01:240, 1:01:480, 1:01:720" often produces note snapping errors like: "1:01:000 1:01:360 1:01:640, 1:01:720" at default ticks per quarter note.  This is especially irritating as a main reason I find Cakewalk very comfortable to use is the Staff Roll, where I initially learned music theory.
+1 for VST wrapper stability improvements.  More specifically to multiple instances of Rapture Pro, of which I've had crashing over.
+1 For panic-clip !  Save our eardrums !  Please.
+1 For fixing diatonic transposition math.  -8 does not in fact lower MIDI data by one octave.  I find myself having to make adjustments after transposing.

Highlight a portion of the song (even blank measures) and "delete and ripple" all tracks and clips like in a video program.  Also insert measures, moving all tracks and clips forward.

Safe mode project load:
 
Instead of a mindless string of you wanna load the plug and that one?
Provide use with a big static scrollable on screen table listing the tracks and the plugs with check boxes for each plug. So we could see that one or two plugs we loaded recently that is causing all the trouble.
Naturally the would be a button to select all / none also.
 
We nearly always know what we did but still must go through the string of interview questions to get there. And you better not accidentally click Yes to load the offending plug when you have just clicked Yes 78 times or more.
 
This could be done over lunch.

Yeah... just had a thought of a possible way to approach one of my issues regarding (wishing for enable/disable track/promoted image while Lanes are displayed...

Would it be possible/easy to reverse the image colors for track/promoted and Lanes?

This would be another approach to my eye confusion regarding which are actually my clips for a given track though still not as desireable as the original enable/disable for the promoted images...

1) Option of NOT recording new take lanes (record mode Sound on Sound) to previously MUTED take lanes.
2) Easier way of selecting parts of one track and making a new track just of these "selected" parts either by copying or moving these to new track.
 
wishes, wishes...
first one is actually a big boo-boo for me as it stands now.
 
Thank you.
 
 
 

The list of commands and menu options that drops down when customizing the buttons on the Custom Control Module needs some love.
 
I did remember Noel saying that this was only a first-cut solution and that it would be worked on... but so far it has remained a long, difficult-to-scroll, cryptic thing. I have found it difficult to find specific commands in the list.

So, um, if this feature is on the list for improvement, consider this an up-vote.

A new and modern script language.

Although CAL scripts are useful, it's absurdly limited, old, difficult, not intuitive (LISP-like) and poorly documented. 
With a modern script language, CbB could evolve a lot, apart from the bakers' development. 
 
Something like Python, Javascript, VBScript, in addition to CAL, would improve a lot the parallel development, by letting the user himself cover the current development gaps by removing the overhead from the bakers.

I've done that, but according to the developer of AZ Lua, unfortunately, this language only works for a whole track, that is, it does not obey the selection of a specific stretch of track. So it's practically useless.

some bugs needs attention

• Midi-clip looping

i got this many times and it is really frustrating
from addictive drums i got midi clips, that i place into track, then i need to loop them 
in tracktion i can just click the L button on top of the clip and it works well, in CW i got to go into menu, bounce to clip (sometimes) then groove-clip-looping - but it's alright, the error goes when it enlarge a midi clip just adding some space behind and to remove this space you got to move clip, bounce or try to do soemthing else, that actually wont work. So what i want is that button or menu entry that will simply make midi to work as loop, just for make it a track wide. it seems like it groove beats+1

• Piano Roll muted clips view

when you modify a note clip, you need to move some, mark some, do something with notes and when you got other clips behind those notes will be marked as well. so if i got few "track lanes" all these lanes will be marked.
 there's a button to not see muted clips, but if a whole track lane is muted (so clips are muted too) those notes still appear in edit mode. what i want is to not see all muted clips whatever they are personally muted or whole track lane, because i got to mute each clip. 

• WDM timing error (in wasapi too prob)

if i'm working in loop mode after sometime notes begins to work different, it feels like they are like not synced and played with some random delay. I don't remember if it happens in ASIO, sometimes just a whole clip not responding for some unknown reason, then if stop\play it works. Something wrong there and i'm not sure what is it exactly. 

• ACT control not reacting some knobs

well in learning mode for synth all knobs  are working
i decided to make some preset for all synths, so i don't have to learn each one for the same usual controls
i thought i could do this with ACT, but when i was setting knobs and sliders, some of them was acting, but a lot of others didn't
and actually i'm not sure if i can define a behaviour of those controls for synths

Can we ever expect to have an arranger track? Also I've heard there are major problems with the Maschine software. I hope there's a fix coming for that.
 
I switched to Cubase when Gibson went sideways. There are many powerful features in Cubase but I loved the workflow in Sonar. I'd gladly switch back if we'd get an arranger track and had a functional Maschine integration.

Please fix the Advanced feature in the BandLab's Cakewalk installer.
ALL of the folder selection fields in the installer when run in Advance mode are read only and cannot be changed.
 
This has been broken for a while and is still broken in  build 24.7.0.13
 
 
 

as for update process of bandlab assistant maybe you'd make a patch update mode?
i mean not downloading whole installer, all instruments etc, but if we know current version, then we can just download diffs or execs+dll's that were changed, so it wont take much resources and time to update. especially for hotfixes.
