Cakewalk (updated free Sonar from Bandlab) is almost working
How to get the Cakewalk daw output asio/wasapi/wasapi-shared
into the linux audio? Someone good with pulse-audio/wineasio
can probably figure it out. Might even 'just work' with the new
well-configured AVLinux? I think gmaq would love
the 'Drum-Replacer' utility. Requires 'Bandlab Assistant'
to be installed, and start cakewalk download/installation.
Errors that appeared were ignored, and the works
successfully installed,
The installer asks if it should install Melodyne, but all else
appears to be automated, and slow, as there is a lot going on,
so more patience needed than for a zippy Reaper install.
Good luck! I am using Ubuntu Studio 19.10, wine-staging 5.5

Re: Cakewalk (updated free Sonar from Bandlab) is almost working
Got Cakewalk sound working, my wine/wineasio needed a serious spring cleaning,
and both a new wineasio and wine-staging (5.6) showed up
in Synaptic, for extra luck, and sound is now working through pulse-jack-sync

How is latency and overall performance?

Re: Cakewalk (updated free Sonar from Bandlab) is almost working
Hi, I have a nylon guitar sample, and a pad sample loaded
on the first two IK Sampletank 3 slots (16 part multi-tymbral) and there is
no sign of latency. I have an i7 2600, 4 core, 8 thread cpu
at 3.4 ghz and 8 gig ram. I'll try Sampletank 4 later. I havent looked into
Cakewalks cpu prefs at all, yet. Syntronik, IK's sample-based synth, also
showed itself to be playable.
The daw includes a drumkit, Bass, E-piano, string-section
and general-midi module, TTS-1
Cheers

Re: Cakewalk (updated free Sonar from Bandlab) is almost working
Hi, sorry for reviving an old thread.
I tried installing Cakewalk on AVLinux using the Bandlab Assistant app but the GUI in said app is pitch black, so I can’t install the DAW.
Anybody with a similar experience who may provide a solution? Maybe some libraries are missing in wine?
Cheers

Re: Cakewalk (updated free Sonar from Bandlab) is almost working
Installed it yesterday.
Using PlayOnLinux, Wine stage 6.7 and Mono (latest version proposed by POL).
I just downloaded Cakewalk (I used the downloadable exe and not the assistant), setup POL to act as a windows 10, used the shared winasio driver (which uses pulse audio) and.... That's it.
It works like a charm. No latency, and the same move tool/UI I am using on any other PC of my own

Re: Cakewalk (updated free Sonar from Bandlab) is almost working
I tried the current Cakewalk just now on my Pipewired Devuan Daedalus, WINE 7.19; it did install — after I found a couple of mfc100.dll files and inserted them where they belonged — and successfully played on the bass and piano instruments...but on my i5-4670S CPU @ 3.10GHz it uses ±33% system CPU on all four cores while doing nothing. I suspect my lack of a proper GPU is part of the problem, but REAPER runs much better.
