I can confirm some files can't be converted at all. I will investigate the reason.

Those which are converted looks reasonable, but I will check what kind of warnings they produce.

Video track is not converted by ReaCWP (no-one so far has ever tried/requested that...). Adding video to conversion is a complicated task, so please don't expect that in foreseeable future.
 
As with many other things, video in REAPER is not the same as in Cakewalk. You will need to find reasonable for you way to deal with that.

Hi Robert,

Mark was quick, so I will try to be quick as well

Please try the "test" version (b427M). It should have "Is on"/"In offset mode on" Function (these function return "success" when true, so if you "play" the action and offset mode is on, you should see it in the "Overview" tab, otherwise you should see nothing there).

I have not checked myself since I have not installed new beta.

Alexey.

BTW I am using .idl only, I am not using standard Cakewalk .h or API wrapper classes since AZ Controller is written in 'C', not 'C++'. But from the header it is obvious what I had to change.

Hi Alexey

I contacted Mark today and they have agreed to expose the button labelled 'Envelope/Offset Mode' in the API.  Details from Mark are as follows:

------------
ControlSurface.h, EProjectParam is now:

typedef
enum EProjectParam
    {
        EPP_SNAP   = 0,
        EPP_OFFSETMODE   = ( EPP_SNAP + 1 )
    }    EProjectParam;

Calling ISonarProject::GetProjectState( EPP_OFFSETMODE, &bValue )  will result in BOOL bValue containing the offset mode status.  TRUE means it's in offset mode, FALSE means it's not.  I'll update the idl / tlb / header in the public SDK when I get the chance, but for the moment just changing this in the header should suffice.
---------------

I should be able to test this new feature in the next Beta from tomorrow.

Please let me know if you need any further information from Mark in order to be able to add this to AZ Controller.

Regards

Robert

Hi Robert,

It is not exposed, till I have overseen something in IDL.
Please ask Mark what he thinks.

Alexey.

Hi Alexey

I am beginning to use the fader level offset control quite a lot in complex mixes.

So e.g. I have an organ part which needs fader automation to make it more prominent at various parts of the song.

Then I decide I need to offset the organ level by a few dBs without affecting the automation curve.

CBB and Sonar offers this offset facility.

The problem I have is that fader offset is not available as a control in AZ Controller under the Strip Action Configuration.  This would not matter when using a conventional hardware control, but as I'm using the fader position feedback to control my external mixer channel levels, then I am sending the wrong level to my PIC when any offset is applied.

Can you tell me if any offset functions are exposed in the API which might be possible to bring into AZ Controller?  The Cakewalk function button is labelled 'Envelope/Offset Mode'.  Detecting which state this button is in might allow a practical means of storing the offsets.  Then I should be able to do the rest of the work in the PC.


Regards
Robert

I'm migrating several projects because I need to resume production on a new album. I'm putting them in this shared folder. One thing I've noticed is that projects that contained videos aren't bringing them back into Reaper. So, after the migration, I have to put the video back into the Reaper project.

One of the issues I'm having is that when I migrate the video to Reaper, the track keeps the sound file with it, whereas in Cakewalk there's a separation.

ACT MIDI is the same size regardless of DPI awareness settings.
Not a big deal for me, my vision is far from 20/20 so I do not see a difference with or without DPI awareness,
and I am using a 42-inch screen.

I have a Cakewalk/Sonar project that opens perfectly in that DAW, but it doesn't recover anything in Reaper 7.42.

I'm using the latest version of the DLL.

Could you take a look at it? Where can I send/make it available?

AZ Controller is not DPI aware. And I don't have 4k monitor. But may be I can reproduce on FHD monitor if I set the option...
Do you have the same problem with other plug-ins, like "ACT MIDI" and "Mackie"? If yes, you can contact Cakewalk.
