The "Load once; plug-in handles multiple MIDI channels" checkbox applies only at the time of adding a plug-in to the list. So the checkbox belongs to the "Add" button. I realize this is a bit confusing. :oops:
Ah that makes sense and explains why the check box didn't change when I selected different instruments. I edited my rcINST files and sorted out which of the synths I'd like it to re-use. I usually just use the sound fonts inside Rapid Composer since I'm focusing on the notes/melody and save the instrument/sounds stuff for later in the DAW.

I'm not holding my breath on Cakewalk actually fixing SONARs looping problem. They have improved a lot with the monthly updates but they still seem reluctant to address many of the long standing issues that continue to plaque it.

v3.3b11 is choking on launch when it gets to Setting Audio Device...

RC becomes unresponsive at that point and won't launch.

I've tried several times. b10 doesn't do this. I haven't tried a restart of the computer yet.

This is on OS X 10.9.5.

I'll check this now, please hold on.

I know what you mean. A few years ago I contacted them about a similar bug but I did not get a reply. However recently the Cakewalk engineers are very responsive and they seemed to take my bug report seriously. I am optimistic about this bug will be taken care of.

OK, fyi, this one opened, had to reset the audio settings to core audio, they were turned off when first opened RC b11. Tried quickly a couple of saved RC files and they played. Thanks for the quick fix, Attila and have a good weekend!

Hi Attila
I hear no preview of chords after i click in master track and on a chord(to open quick suggestion window). preview using active track is enable. i test with a new create song. problem too

I notice that messages somtimes come under the chord windows. for example when chord selector is switch to "For preview" but no phrase is in phrase editor

it is big good enhancement and the realtime phrase preview work good, but use chord preview sounds. is it possible to switch it to use active track ? Edit: now it work and use track preview. seem it depend on chord suggestion setting

Thank you, magicmusic, all problems will be fixed for the next beta version.
The rewrite of the 'Palette' goes very well.

Thanks,

Hello Attila!
Yes, in the last beta there are very big and very good changes!
I just started looking and learning new tools ...
I do not know about other users, but I have one unpleasant bug.
I think this is a playback problem in loop mode.But maybe I'm wrong ..
When the track is played in loop mode and I select a chord in the master track, I work with new instruments (chord selector, for example), then there are visual changes of phrases, but I hear unchanged phrases ... In loop mode, no changes are heard!
And I can hear the changes only after stopping the composition And a new playback start ((
Thank you ! New tools for work are adorable!
Sincerely lulukom

@lulukom Here it work ok, i use win 10 64 . when change the chord, the notes stop and as soon a new note come, it play the new note with new chord.

For Master track need enable. I use a range of 1 bar or more. work ok

BTW: its really powerfull, i see not at beginning, it is also possible to have chord selector open in phrase editor. so can change chords and phrase editor play correct. must switch to for preview and preview phrase editor

only when in phrase editor loop play is enable, and it play, click on chord play button the chord is play and the phrase continue, so sound odd. to use chord selector in phrase editor should not start to play

Thanks for the answer!
  I'll use mac os and with the preview everything is clear,
But as I already wrote in the process of playing the song in the loop mode
changes can be seen, but can not be heard until a new restart of playback!
Thank you !

Hi lulukom,

I have tried this on macOS and Windows but it worked well. Any chord changes were immediately heard during loop playback. You may have found a bug that appears under special circumstances. Will you make a screenshot about your composition, or even better, can you send me a composition file that shows this bug?

There will be another beta version during the weekend which will have all v3.3 features.

Thanks!
Attila
