Cakewalk doesn't include an Instrument Definition for my MIDI instrument. Where can I find one?

Cakewalk - Frequently Asked Questions
If Cakewalk doesn't currently have the definition for your instrument, you may have to create the definition yourself. We do offer step by step instructions on how to do so here. You might also consider posting a request for the definition on our General newsgroup, which you can access from our Newsgroups page. Often, another Cakewalk user has already created the definition, and will email it to you. (Back to top)

Why can't I get any MIDI input to Cakewalk?

Cakewalk - Frequently Asked Questions
The first step in getting MIDI in and out to function properly is to make sure the cabling to your external keyboard is correct. You need to connect MIDI Out of your keyboard to MIDI In of your interface, and MIDI Out of the interface to MIDI In on the keyboard. If you are using external sound modules, connect them via the MIDI keyboard’s Thru jack.

When I record MIDI, Cakewalk gives me doubled notes. What's wrong?

Cakewalk - Frequently Asked Questions
You'll need to determine if this is a recording problem or a playback problem. To determine which one it is you'll need to start with a new file in Cakewalk. Click the Record button and play 4 notes. Stop recording and open the Event list view from Cakewalk's View menu. If you see 8 note events look at the Channel column in the Event list. If there are 2 different Channel numbers listed in this column, then your instrument is transmitting on multiple channels.

Why doesn't Apache include SSL?

Apache Server Frequently Asked Questions
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) data transport requires encryption, and many governments have restrictions upon the import, export, and use of encryption technology. If Apache included SSL in the base package, its distribution would involve all sorts of legal and bureaucratic issues, and it would no longer be freely available. Also, some of the technology required to talk to current clients using SSL is patented by RSA Data Security, who restricts its use without a license.

Why doesn't all midi-files play ?

Sokoban Frequently Asked Questions
Only one midi-file is playing. When next track is selected, nothing plays. This is caused by the fact that I am using relative paths to the MIDI-files. It seems that the MIDI-player sometimes "forgets" the current working path The simple solution is to always give the full path when starting to play a MIDI-file. This will be corrected in the next release. A workaround is to edit the Sokoban.ini file with an ordinary text-editor (notepad or wordpad).
