V Vocal Not Found?
Hey all, having a problem with V Vocal.
I've never needed to use it before so not sure if it has been a problem for the last 18 months or if it is new.
Basically, V-Vocal is completely greyed out. All of the 'Create V-Vocal Clip' etc is all greyed out and unselectable.
I searched and saw people had a similar problem so tried the following suggestions which have not fixed it.
- Used shorter clips
- Bounced audio to clip
- Reinstalled Sonar
The V-Vocal .dlls and files seem to be in the right place amongst all of the other shared dxi and vst plugins bundled with Sonar. I've been on for about three or four hours and just can't seem to find a solution to the problem.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.

You have to select an audio track or a section of an audio track first and then right click and the V-Vocal - Create V-Vocal options will not be greyed out.

Woah, slow down tiger!
Check to see if there's any layers on your tracks. V-Vocal doesn't play well with layers
Check to see if any clips are locked
If you do want to reinstall, make sure you do it properly.

Hi mate. Never use layers as I don't really know what they are. As for locking clips, not sure what that is, how would I check To reinstall I uninstall, then reinstall form my disc and then work my way through the updates. A long boring process haha. Thanks for your help.

Switch to layer mode using this switch:  You might well have stuff recorded in layers whether you intended it or not - you'll easily see when you click the button. If you DO have anything there, select the entire track and do a Bounce to Clip, then try -Vocal again

What version of windows do you have?
Reinstalling should be a last resort.
Do you see it in the Cakewalk Plug-In Manager? Its called Cronus (not V-Vocal) in the VST Audio Effects section.

"bounce to clip" has always done it for me.

Also make sure that the clips aren't groove clips as it doesn't work on them.

I'm using windows 7. Ahh, Cronus is not showing. I even inserted the file where the Cronus.dll is as a folder to search in the VST menu, but it still doesn't show up. Hmmm.

Sorry to keep bumping but I have a project on and this would be really useful to have.
Should I contact Cakewalk direct?
