While I would agree with that because we could go back 5 years on any daw forum that allows it and dig up software issues, for the most part the responses to those users argue against the point he thinks he's making. It should also be noted that a much larger percentage of users having technical issues show up at the CW forums because they want help. The larger silent majority are busy making music in CbB.
I agree with you, starise!
If it works well on one of your machines but not on another, I'd say with 96% certainty that this is a video driver issue, since you almost certainly installed and configured it the same way on both machines. Unlike Cubase, Sonar doesn't need Aero or any other "eye candy". If your ATI or NVidia card has any extra software running, you may want to turn those things off to save resources. And that alone might also end up resolving this issue. I can't reproduce this problem either, and I'm just using the Intel HD Graphics 4600 video system.ruslan.st wrote: ↑Thu Oct 11, 2018 11:31 am I use original Mercury theme, without any edits.

I wasn't too familiar with Nyabinghi reggae rhythm before I heard the track, but like many of the other people who posted comments said, you have a cool groove there. And any time you get a chance to work with someone named "Isaac Newton", you'd better not pass it up!DeBro wrote: ↑Thu Oct 11, 2018 2:13 pmSure, here's the link by first logging into your Facebook account.

That's great to hear! How about a link to the page?

For those who do not have a Facebook account, here's a direct link to the audio file. Even if you're not into this genre of music, the song showcases that Cakewalk is a well capable music production software.

Thank you for explanation. I tried to resize, move, scroll window and velocity lane separately, but velocity bars do not appear. Other CCs - modulation, expression - can be drawn and are visible. X-Ray settings change and turning it on/off doesn't make velocities visible. There is quite generic Intel HD 520 video card on my Dell, no much fancy options in it. Tried to tweak screen resolution, scaling, but nothing happens. Seems that due to some reason Cakewalk decides not to draw specifically velocity bars for unmarked notes, while it can draw all other elements of UI and note rectangles in piano roll, which in essence are just rectangles with the same color as velocity bars should be.planetearth wrote: ↑Fri Oct 12, 2018 12:13 amIf it works well on one of your machines but not on another, I'd say with 96% certainty that this is a video driver issue, since you almost certainly installed and configured it the same way on both machines.

Do the invisible velocity bars move as you scroll back and forth in the window, and/or do they become visible if you shrink or enlarge that section?
The only "transparency" feature Sonar has is for overlaying some screens on top of others. You can change the "X-ray" settings in the preferences, under Customization : Display. X-ray isn't used for the velocity bars, but it does take advantage of some of the graphics card's capabilities. Maybe turning it off (or on) might help.

Ah, yes. I didn't notice if you'd mentioned that the notes weren't selected. That makes a difference.
This is the kind of thing that makes many people start crying "bug!!!". This is a deep program, and it is being constantly updated, even now that it is presumed dead
It was a horrible, cataclismic change. A lot of users, me included, were appalled. At the end of the tunnel, it was for the better, but X1 was a tough one to swallow. I went to Live until things got better, circa X3. Anyway, it was Roland who actually destroyed Cakewalk's public image, IMHO. Gibson put it back in the right track, but then it went bankrupt by itself. The devs, with Noel leading, have been doing a terrific job these years in spite of all, and they deserve to be supported, especially for the price.
