It sounds like y'all might actually be closing the program, as if you were going to walk away and stop making music for some period of time...if you don't do that and stay slaved at the computer like me, and don't close the program, you don't have to wait for it to open again.

Getting many DX or DXi installed can be as "easy" as opening a command prompt in the folder the dll file is in, then entering "regsvr32 dxeffectfilenamehere.dll". It doens't work on everything, and it doesn't actually perform all the install functions, it only adds it to the registry in the appropriate places to be seen as a DX plugin. If there are files, presets, etc., that aren't installed or not in the expected places, it probably still won't work. But this has saved me much heartache for certain no-longer-made plugins I have used over the years, and makes swapping out test versions of some of them possible.

Here's a good one: Felicia You could literally paste your lyrics (above) on the Midi track and you have a singer. Tons of control over every part of the performance, too. It kind of makes me feel sorry for the singers who depend on studio background work and commercials, etc. This software is really good now and will only get better. I think live performers will be Ok, but generic studio work is going to be replaced by these AI tools.

Hi, As you can see in the image, the option "Show Vertical Gridlines" is unchecked and still the gridlines are showing. How can I fix this? In the track view it works, but in piano roll, they are still there. In case you wonder why I need this, it is because I need to work with unquantized midi events and the gridlines are very confusing and distracting. Thank you

I have made a reg file that, when imported , adds the keybinding ALT+SHIFT+L to “Lock/Unlock the Screenset from modifications” in Sonar 2025. This should not modify existing keybindings. Of course, before importing this file, make sure you either export your keybindings to a KBN file, or export the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Sonar\Bindings Sonar Screentset lock Keybinding.reg

He has done so many iconic roles. "Sneakers" (1992) is one of my personal favorites because of the off-the-cuff humor in it with very serious undertones. All-star cast, yet seems quite a few have never even heard of it. RIP

I'll have to listen to some demos; if it is "robotic" like all the other types of voice synths I've run across over the years, I'll pass. Back in the beginning of Vocaloid, for instance, I was impressed by it doing vocals at all, but it never got human enough for me to use. So I've been collecting the "dollar" (or two or three) packs of samples from various places on their "really big sales" the last couple of years or so since discovering them, and just the little bit I have used so far has changed some of the things I was making from "ok" to "amazing", as far as my own ears are concerned. I doubt anyone else of the very very few that ever listen thinks so, but that's ok. When they volunteer to find me a set of vocalists to do what I want and record for me just for the feel-goods of doing it, they can have a say. 😆 There are examples of what I'm doing these days with those in the last several songs above, if you're interested.

Mark, You mentioned the Korg nanoKontrol remote surface. After reading about it I decided to ditch TouchDAW and get a nanoKontrol. It took half a day to resolve a problem caused by the nanoKontrol being registered in Windows as MIDI device #11. Korg's driver apparently had to have it in the top 10 devices. Once I got it working with Sonar I realized how much easier it is to use. Almost everything about TouchDAW confused me. So I just wanted to say thanks for the tip.

Sounds like you need to invest in Synthesizer V Studio 2

Cool. I don't remember if I've ever seen it. For me, besides Butch & Sundance,, I loved Jeremiah Johnson and The Sting. And I actually really loved The Electric Horseman. I think it's a beautiful story... A Rodeo star who's come to resent fame sees himself in a famous race horse. And by helping free the horse, he helps free his himself. I always thought it was an underrated movie. And Redford and Jane Fonda always had great chemistry. I rate it two thumbs up 👍 👍

I'll put in a vote for Melodyne if you have it. As long as you have your audio aligned to the correct tempo and you aren't playing like Jaco Pastorius, the quantize macro does a really good job of lining up the notes, and you can see and hear the amount of quantization you're applying in real-time. You can select small segments or large blocks to quantize (changing the quantization snap value as you go). Moving around a few stragglers is also a breeze. Of course, there's a bit of a learning curve for Melodyne, but the basics are pretty easy and it's more than worth the time... As far as the countdown... I just meditate for ten seconds

Jees, the only thing I can think of is somehow you're leaving the 'note on' message behind when you drag. Try opening the Track Inspector and change the start time of the clip to the desired start time. See if it works that way. Drag all of the other clips the other way one measure and what happens?

Box arrived today and it works great, well worth the $99.

Gracias por la aclaración y por tomarte el tiempo para responder.

Three Days of the Condor is still one of my favorite movies. RIP.

To answer their questions: 1. ALT+SHIFT+L is unassigned by default. 2. There is no Lock/Unlock Screenset in the Global Bindings so manual assignment is impossible. You might also let them know that there's many shortcuts that work if imported but aren't in the Preferences list.

True, which is why I keep SA3 but SA4 has that interesting ‘similar sound selection’ thingy, which I wouldn’t want to miss either.

I started a support ticket. It seems like they expect the bindings to be there... I think the Bakers might have to take a look at this?

That was the point of my point,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Hello?

🤘

Bascially their last relase (the producer thing) is this + access to a lot of other libraries content , so i would rather go the new stuff . I own synthanthology 3 and on the 4 you lose access to raw waveform for the second OSC section.... whcih is a shame ... this is why i didn't upgraded

Most likely not, that is a 32-bit DXi and I do not recall there ever being a 64-bit version of it; but someone might have more insight to help you.

What you played was good, I was talking about tonality. Everyone's taste is different though, so take my comment as lightly as you want 🙂

Yeah...set the Wayback to 2004... I have an old project that's using an ancient DXi softsynth called PSYN II. I've got the dll (dated 09/08/2006) along with it's .chm file. There used to be a way to get this installed into the registry. Would this still work if I did?

Thanks, kick do you mean tonality, or whats played? I wanted the drums relatively simple against the bass line.
