If you have access to one of the older Cakewalk versions such as Music Creator, you can install those and get TTS.


Personally, I only use MIDI when I connect my keyboard to play a part, either piano or bass. I'm like you in that I never learned nor had a desire to learn all the controller stuff. One of my keyboards has touch sensitivity so I can get that by using that particular keyboard however, for most things, it really doesn't matter since I can control volumes with envelopes. I use mostly audio in the real tracks or live audio and rarely use MIDI unless as I previously mentioned.

I do know you have to tell your program where the VSTi TTS is located. And you need to scan the correct directory in Cake otherwise it will not find it.

You can find my music at:

Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.
You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
