Hi

I am using Scaler 2.8 in Cakewalk with the performance “Delicato” (phrases, “con amore”) and the tempo is increasing as Scaler starts to play that part I dragged as a MIDI into the DAW.

Anyone experiencing the same issue?

Thanks  
Carlo

Maybe I messed it up with the Sync feature cause I have created the project again and it’s working. Any clue about what I may have done?

Thanks

Did you drag the MIDI to the Scaler track so that the MIDI was playing itself? That would give unpredictable results.

I did but turned off the performance. Not sure what happened but pretty sure was a problem with the Sync in Cakewalk. It was the first time I was using it.

Thanks
