A feature that is unique to Cakewalk is the ability to save and recall mixes. The Mix lens quickly brings the mixing console to the front and center of the screen, and the Make Beats lens brings up the timeline and an empty drum pad matrix.Īt the top of the screen, Cakewalk displays the module section, which contains the transport, tool selection, metronome options, time signature, looper, marker placement, as well as a few others. The Advanced lens displays the full set of modules, the timeline, console, and folder browser.
At the top right corner of the screen, there is a drop-down menu with quick access to workstation view presets. Workspaces in Cakewalk are referred to as lenses.
The GUI and layout of Cakewalk is sleek, professional-looking, and largely has the same feel to previous Gibson-owned incarnations. You’ll find a bunch in our sample pack marketplace. Since MIDI controller names and audio drivers can often have long, unwieldy names that are difficult to remember, users can select the box “Use Friendly Names,” which allows the use to custom rename the drivers and MIDI devices to something shorter. Flexible Routing: each row routes to a track, multiple rows can be routed to the same track, per row mute and exclusive solo.There, the user can select their audio interfaces drivers, activate or deactivate inputs and outputs, setup MIDI controllers, and set the sample rate and bit depth for the session.Play Styles: Global and Per-Cell modes for looping and latching (set cells to trigger from the beginning, or offset from SONAR Now Time).Four triggering modes with measure, beat, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64 note resolutions.Drag-drop any audio (multiple files at once) and MIDI content from the Track View or the Media Browser into the Matrix.One-step capture of Matrix “performances” to Track View for more precise editing and mixing.Cell-based view offering non-linear arrangement and live triggering.Click the Capture button to simultaneously record your Matrix performance as an arrangement of audio and MIDI tracks in SONAR’s Track View. The Matrix provides a comfortable, trigger-anything looping environment using four trigger modes, multiple play styles, and advanced MIDI controls. The Matrix view is easy to use, simply drag-and-drop any type of audio or MIDI clip/file/pattern from the Track view, Media Brower or desktop into empty cell, then click individual cells or columns of cells to turn on and off playback. The Matrix is also a perfect tool for beat-juggling and triggering one-shots and backing tracks live. Matrix View – with simple and flexible cell-based, non-linear audio and MIDI arranging and triggering, the Matrix offers new ways to experiment with arrangements, creating remixes of existing songs, and quickly lay down beds of tracks for new songs in any genre.
