Hi everyone,
after almost a whole night, I finally discovered many things in CBB:
how to patch several soft synths in my project (TTS1, Roland Cloud XV 5080, Roland Cloud Sound Canvas)
how the drum map manager was accessed and used
how you could see a midi drum track
and a few other things
I saved my project as a CWP file and went to sleep
Today I tried to resume work and to my horror, I saw that the project was loaded just like the midi file I worked with: a dozen midi tracks plugged into Cakewalk TTS-1
what is going on here ? I checked that I wasnt working with a demo version but the About screen tells me: Free: Activated by Bandlab
wtf ? this is seriously beginning to feel more like debugging a software (I used to be a Windows/Delphi developer)than playing music
thanks in advance,
Bernard

Hello Bernard,

Perhaps you can clarify what you *expected* to happen - it's not clear from your post what the problem is.

I'm not seeing a problem here yet, either. More detail would be really helpful.

Based on what little information is here, it behaved as it normally does. You save your project as "normal" .cwp and it opens back up exactly as you left it. I use Cakewalk everyday and have not seen any issues with saving and opening projects just as an FYI.
