Stop the transport and turn of the record and input echo buttons. Try different presets.Д¬akewalk will start recording the MIDI data from the controller. Play a few notes on the controller to confirm the synth makes sound (some load a default preset, some require the user to load a preset). Set the input to your controller, enabled the record and input echo buttons on the track Most virtual instruments work the same and Studio Instruments are no exception.

Many use a real MIDI keyboard but CbB has a virtual controller which uses the PC keyboard or touch screen. There are a variety of ways to enter MIDI data. Thanks for any ideas to get me out of the ditch! I'm running on an HP laptop, 16 GB RAM, Windows 8.1, new Cakewalk installation a few days ago. I've tried setting this specifically to the SI-Drum Kit 1, Midi Omni, but still nothing is recorded. The default is the Virtual Controller assigned to Midi Omni. Is there some setting I'm missing? I've looked at the midi port settings, tried some variations with the other soft synths such as strings. There is an active sound bar in the drum track and I hear the drums, but I do not see any sound patterns on the track itself, and there is nothing after I hit the stop button and attempt the play button.

I arm the drum track to record, then hit the main record button (set to overwrite). I hear it in my headphones, and I see sound bars in the drum and master mix channels. I can bring up the kit, select a sample pattern and loop it. This adds a track and assigns a default midi port. I select 'Insert' then 'Soft Synth' and Drums, and SI-Drum Kit. I'm just trying to get the virtual instruments packaged with the new Cakewalk to record, such as Drum Kit 1.
