Thank you for your tips. This is the only video that I have found that actually helps me with cakewalk. I have been a long time user and still find myself learning so much. thank you again.

Hi Mike, 1st time caller, long time listener. Tip 5 did save my sanity and I can't thank you enough for it and all your incredibly helpful videos. You are a gem in the Cakewalk world of content. Using the "Selection" option instead of "Project" when exporting finally allowed me to give some breathing room at the end. A simple solution but one I could not figure out until now. Best wishes to you, I'm grateful for all your help and hard work.
Love the peak finder feature! Many years with CW, and I never knew about it! Also, if you have that situation where your MIDI or audio ends, but an FX tail (like reverb) decays past the project end, if you export the whole range, the decay will still get cut off. It's best to extend a clip (MIDI or audio) to the end of the decay. Even though there's no events there, CW will see the end of the song where it should be.
if you're annoyed about invisible things after the end of the song you can also use the ripple edit to select everything after the "expected end" and delete everything in the selected "visually empty" bars... you'll get rid, yet not knowing what was there. But, somethings you can't be bothered trying to finding the left-overs from a longer previous state. Love your videos, mate! Cheers!
@@CreativeSauce Ich hatte auch so ein Problem und alle Tipps haben nichts gebracht, aber der hier, mit „ripple edit“ hats gebracht. Besten Dank „vandergleal“ :)
@@CreativeSauce Nope, didn't use that one ever. For drums, I commonly select a note in pianoroll (let's say the HHat,) to activate the velocities for all, then fiddle from there. But the transform thingy seems much more handy.
I use the transform tool all the time on controllers. One thing to be wary of is that it does not respect event selection. Anything inside the transform marquee is transformed - selected or not. Now, a transform tool for automation nodes - that would be even more awesome!
Mike, you can also designate the different drums to go to separate tracks INSIDE Addictive drums.. each drum channel on AD2 has settings at the bottom of each channel (each drum) and you can specify where that channel will go, and here you set up to go to its own track.. mine is always set to this, I can always (H) hide the tracks.. ( you can hide tracks using the "H" key.. it will only hide track view tracks.. if you open up the Console, those tracks are not hidden.. you can then (again) hit the "H" key in console view and hide the track mix channels as desired.. great tip.. you might wanna include this one.. I use it a lot when I have test tracks, or tracks I don't want to see while concentrating on what I am working on.. cheers, mate (Oregon)
Really have benefited watching your videos. I totally was surprised and grateful for the Audio to Midi Secret. You see I own Passports version of this but lamented the loss of the product key. now I can hmm a tone and covert it to Midi. SO Powerful. I think will say gratitude by becoming a Patrion subscriber. How do i do that again. the Thanks button here is not Patrion
I'm somewhat new to DAWs (Cakewalk being the one i like the most) Been learning the concepts for about two years One thing i would suggest for the list, is 'Track Folders' Now this might be a "Me" thing, but i've started putting tracks in folders a lot, then i can collapse the whole folder but still see a color for each track in the folder preview. Also, easier to copy sections without having to copy each individual track.
Great video Mike , 30 Yrs of using Cakewalk and I always learn something new !! I use a newer method to avoid the PITA that is the " where is the end of the track " nightmare. Simply Press A to open the Arranger and make one long selection that covers the song between your ideal start-finish points. When you click on the middle of the arranger selection it will highlight everything for Export within it in a way that's very repeatable and stays saved within the project ( which is what you want if you have to export a load of stems for example )
In the Transform tool - if you raise the lower side of the square away from the bottom so that it lies above the velocity peaks of parts/events you don't want to change, the quieter ones will be left unaffected. It's kind of having a MIDI-version of a compressor, since you only attenuate loudness above the threshold.
These are awesome tips - thanks Mike! That audio to Midi conversion capability is unbelievable! Do you know how to set the time indicator behaviour to stay put when pressing Stop during playback, instead of it jumpng back to its original starting point?
I've dealt with that last one before, and it did drive me bonkers! It took me several hours to finally figure out that it was volume automation. Edit: I had no idea about the "Peaky Finders" tip. That one will be invaluable for sure!
Hey Mike. Love your stuff, as always. If I might make a request, could you add chapters to your future videos? For someone like me who likes to bookmark your stuff for future reference, it would be nice to find the one thing I was looking for rather than have to scrub through. Keep up the good work!
Mike- I have used Cakewalk and formerly SONAR for years in my studio for hobby and professional work. But I continue to learn some new hidden shortcut about Cakewalk from you in this channel. Especially since it went to BL. Thank you for providing such an incredible and helpful resource for Cakewalk…an amazing DAW that can do just about anything I throw at it, and you’ve brought it out in the light with your content. Greetings from usa. You rock!
Great job, Mike. Even though these are geared toward new users, I nearly always glean at least one new tip from your tutorials, and I've been a Cakewalk user since 1986.
Hi Mike, great tips. Thank you. I have just been trying to edit some AD2 drums and if I had known about the CAL scripts it would have been Sooooo much easier.
Hi Mike, Cal Scripts are probably the most useful part of handling MIDI in Cakewalk IMHO. Using Cal Scripts for humanisation or varying velocities is extremely helpful. Sure there are many other ways to do it but Cal Scripts are very useful. Just a thought Tony. Ps thanks yet again. Lately I’ve been getting into Reaper for MIDI. I just find being able to create my own tools by simple scripts, tool bars and Note Maps. Note Maps really make a huge difference to both understanding CC Lanes and Key Switches. Cal Scripting was also a fairly handy way to get repetitive functions to happen (if it goes well?) I tend to also use the Event Viewer to discover stuff I don’t see.
I suspect it's the language itself which has diminished its popularity. If there were a more sophisticated implementation.... like in Python, or a Java based scripting language, it may have seen more people jumping in there I guess. I know keyboard shortcuts can be used to execute CAL scripts, but I always wished I'd been able to place them as a button somewhere. Also always kinda wished you could record and store macros, a bit like photoshop. Aye, a man can dream!
@@CreativeSauce I attach CAL scripts to buttons and sliders on Cakewalk Studioware panels. Granted, I have to use an old version of Cakewalk to edit them, but they do work in CbB. I use them for every project I do.
Brilliant video as always Mike. Thanks. 😊 It's hard to not see that last one as a bug. Why would it consider automation and tempo changes beyond the point where there's music for them to affect? As it happens I almost always export an arrangement so I never have that problem. (And as pointed out in a previous comment the arranger provides a good workaround even if it's a single arranger section.)
Yet another VERY useful and informative video, Mike. I knew some of it - and some of it was new! Profuse thanks. Per some of the comments below, I'd be mortified if the Cal scripts (or some of them) were removed!!
Awesome video again Mike. You really do have a gift when it comes to explaining this stuff. There are many others out there with similar videos but I keep coming back to yours because they are so relatable. Having only gotten into Cakewalk recently, CAL scripts are new to me. Would love to know more about them. Also, for those of us stuck using virtual basses, would love a video on sliding and bending of MIDI notes. 🤞🏻 All the best.
Great tips as usual. I like the last tip, my songs tried me banana sometime when I play MIDI song even the song is over but the clock still ticking. I spent so much time exam the the events lists but couldn't find the problem. Now I can pin point the problem, thanks for your tip.
Would love to see some videos more midi focused for like cc11 and recording that stuff. Also midi recording options like recording multiple notes in different takes what I mean is of I record a string part and wanna go back and record another string on top of it what's the option that allows both to blend and not over write the original
Hi Mike, thanks again for your videos, I learn something new every time. Regarding peaks and meters, I find it useful to use the shortcut SHFT+j to reset everything to zero (once all of the reverb has faded).
Hi Mike. It's Feb 7, 2022 and I tried to implement the Cal Script 'split note to tracks' and got a message that it wasn't supported in Cakewalk. So your caution in this video about its availability is apt. But I've watched other videos of yours that have shown at least two other ways to route a particular drum to its own track. The Cal Script approach though seemed the easiest so if there is another approach like this it would be good to know about it. Thanks.
Hi! I'm a beginner, and I have a question that I can't find the answer to. I have instances where a bigger chunk of the end of a verse overlaps with the beginning of the next one, but I recorded both verses onto the same track, and I can only choose one take for a particular part (so it cuts either the end or the beginnig of a verse off). I hope I could explain my problem clearly enough. Thanks in advance for your help!
Great video Mike. A topic for your future "Cakewalk Secrets": Is it an automatic background recording functionality in Cakewalk, like the "dump score log" in FL studio, that can save our ideas when we forgot to hit record...?
Hi Mike. Great video. I like that part of the clip where You presented the possibility of insertion of vst's inside the cackewalk effects chain. Could you pls let me know what is the ordering of those effects in that chain ? From up to down or the opposite ? I mean which of these effects is applied first that from the bottom or that from the topmost side of the effects chain ? Cheers
The Cal script works wonderfully but, do you have to assign an instrument track to each new midi track to enable further editing such as volume? Many thanks and keep up the great work.
I've used Cakewalk DAWs since the late '90s, and still learn new and useful tips each time I watch any of your videos. Thank you! The peak finder feature is the most useful tip for me in this video. I have now turned it on and can find the peak via right-clicking the peak dB number on the bus as you described. However, it seems that this can only be done by playing the track in it's entirety and lowering each peak as I encounter them at the point in time they occur. Is it possible to find all peaks above a certain level (say -3.0) present in the track, in order that I could quickly navigate to and lower those peak volumes without sitting through a playback?
Excellent series. Always something revelatory for me. Thanks! Useful category: The transform tool is going to speed up some of my common midi edits. I might even try that cal, split to tracks. I do it differently category : The song export length thingy never bothered me, I’m in the habit of selecting my song length on the time line. Probably still will…
Make sure you do a save before running a cal script, as they sometimes go wrong, and the number of changes made can exceed your undo limit.
Very true! Thank you.
Definiteiy. There are some commands that will categorically crash Cakewalk by Bandlab (Yes, editSlide command, I'm looking at you)
Exactly as you say. It can be a nightmare!
The iceberg gag left me cold...😉
Disappointing, after I made such a titanic effort!

I love that tip of the iceberg 😂😁😀😎🤩
I aim to please :)
My my my... that View Tempo Track Show /Hide!
Mike you just made MY DAY!
Merci, Thank you x1000!
Glad you clarified that particualr CAL script. I had no idea what they were asking for when they said Channel and Port number...
I tuned in right at the point where you said,
but do with care, cause a little bit of your soul dies with it. Haha,😂 great content man.
Hoping for more tutorials about the freeze button in CW
Peaky Finders!!! 😂😂😂
I see what you did there!
TRANSFORM applied to midi notes is brilliant.
Tons of uses for it popped into my head before you were even done with the demonstration.
😎👍👍
Great tips. That peak finder was golden! Thanks.
"hi, I'm mike. And i hope you will"
Great pickup line, thanks
Don't worry Mike, I enjoyed your joke!!!! Also great video thanks!
Yep. Been using Cakewalk since the beginning. Didn't know any of that! Many thanks!

Adding FX into the pro channel just blew my mind

Great to hear! Thank you Mark :)
Excellent Excellent Excellent Mike!!! I remember the CAL scripts in the Sonar Days. Thanks Again!!
Another fantastic video!!! Thank you so much!!!
Best tip? Has to be the dreaded silence after a project ends and trying to find out why. This helps!
Finding the end has always frustrated me.. that's a Great TIP
Thank you Mike, very fruitfull video. I like a lot the transformation velocity feature it realy helps a lot
Great tips, Mike! Thank you.
Great tips Mike! Keep them coming please! :-)
Another eye opening experience!! 15 years with Cakewalk, and YES!! you can teach this old dog new tricks!!
Many thx Mike!!
Thanks Mike, I really like the "Peaky Finder" option on audio tracks. Helps in a great way when gain staging and with other stages too. Keep it up

Your raise the bottom by clicking (and holding down left mouse button) anywhere *between* the small white circles at the bottom side.
The change of velocity/volume is then done as usual by clicking and dragging the central upper circle of the square/box up or down.
The last tip was the most helpful and a timesaver when trying to find out why the export came out so long.
Thanks
Thank you!
You rock bro! Some of these I didn't know about. The first one will be most useful 👍🏼
Mike, another great video!
Started my day with a dad joke. Nice.
Sadly - one more reason for my kids not to watch my videos!
The last one was a real pain to me too!
Thanks a lot
Thank you so much - I learned 4 new things. I already worked out "mixing it up"
Another informative video, particularly AD2 drum split
Another great video. Unbelievable how easy it is to forget some of these!
Thanks, Mike.
Another great video Mike. Very helpful and entertaining at the same time.
Holy CAL! Loved tip #3. I also hope they allow for this somehow before this method become unsupported.
