Hello again,  I have a slightly different problem using Cakewalk.
I want to use it to 'record' music from a barrel organ or similar
device using switch closures to pick up each note.  I can get it to do
the recording but I still have 2 problems.

1 - I can't see what is being recorded (or even IF it is being
recorded) while the recording is being made or while I'm setting it up.
I can hear the notes but I can't see the notes appear on the piano
view.  I have seen this at a friend's home when he records from a
keyboard but I cannot figure out how to set up my system to do it.
My screen just shows the little square moving across the measures at
the top.  When I stop recording, the notes appear.

2 - If I know beforehand what the tuning of the organ is (which key
equals which note) I can just attach the correct note (wire) to pick up
the key.  But if I don't know the scale for certain, I'd like to assign
a guess at the arrangement (or a random/consecutive arrangement) and
make a recording.  Then I'd like to be able to reassign the notes to
match the actual arrangement on the organ.   Just a simple table would
be great.  Starting with the standard MIDI note assignment 0-127 with
60=C5.   2 columns with 128 rows.   I could change the letter in the
second column and the note attached to this number input (left column)
would plan this new note (right column) instead.   This would go a long
way to figuring out the tuning of some organs which are in bad shape,
for listening to unrestored organs or for orphan barrels.

By the way, I know you can 'move' entire individual rows in Cakewalk's
piano view vertically to a new note, but this combines rows and is
_very_ hard to keep track of.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
