This stream auto-updates

  1. Past hour
  2. I had just shut cakewalk down and maybe a background thread was still active. I ignored it and it seems to be working fine.
  3. That's true. A corrupted sample can cause this. I can always reinstall the sample as I have it backed up. That may be the next attempt!
  4. More thoughts, not knowing much about your system or instruments' functionality (just general observations of software): But it could be caused by one of the instruments being played, having some issue that is causing an overload of it's own buffers or audio stream or playback engine. If any of the instruments has had an update to it's engine or other software bits, that might cause it. If that one spot happens to call a sample that isn't used anywhere else, and the sample is damaged or if it's one of those instruments that updates it it's samples, it might be a cause.
  5. Those used to be called WORM memories--write once, read many. In the days of fuse-roms, they called them OTPs, one time programmables... Good grief I'm old.
  6. Today
  7. And a screenshot of your Export window settings. To insure sound consistency, you can record the entire mix real time to a stereo track from the hardware output. The resulting audio can be dragged to desktop (wait for the process bar in the Transport module to complete).
  8. I'm a big fan of Windows 11 Pro so far. All of my OneDrive accounts and all of my MS software loaded up and just worked. It was a nightmare setting it all up on Windows 10. I tallied up the cost. June: $1306.66 What I paid in December: $1740 The MOBO dropped or it would have been another $90. Everything else stayed the same except the RAM/M.2 skyrocketed. Sys Specs: I9 14900K, 64GB 5600 RAM, 2T Gen 5 M.2 Drive, Non-PCI lane splitting Aorus Mobo, 360MM AIO Cooler, 750W PSU, Case to fit the cooler Win 11 Pro. Prices are only going to go up, so if you want or need to build a new system now is the time to do it.
  9. This is typically true, since the file information, especially building/maintaining the Master File Table (MFT) is dependent on number of files and not their size. A million tiny files are going to take longer than one 80GB file to write. Cell complexity (QLC, TLC, etc.) will also affect write speeds fairly dramatically as well as expected longevity... I didn't even realize that Penta Level Cells (PLC) were in the pipeline till I saw this article (supposed to be released this year, but none exist that I can find), and they are basically designed to be read-only (no proposed expected lifespan on them for writes/erases). The vast majority of consumer SSDs today are either quad (QLC) or triple (TLC) and are geared much more for read operations, with the writes being more intricate/slower per cell complexity. Only the SLC models are designed for "high intensity write operations" without burning out the cells, which is why they are highly preferred for O/S drive usage where they get temp files written to them often and in high quantity, and they are designed to last 30-50 longer than QLC/TLC variants for this specific task. While QLC/TLCs are great for content that is "fairly static" like sample libraries, data archives, etc. They are not the best choice for something that will be written to often. Even with advances in technology I do still do not trust any SSDs for important archives (or images), so I keep one internal HDD and one external HDD for these purposes.

  11. You just jogged an old memory. I ordered an amp one time. They only had the floor model at Guitar Center and I wanted a new in the box one. It was in stock at the warehouse in the same city. Waited and waited, no amp. So I called and asked if I could just drive there and pick it up. The kid got snotty with me and asked why I wanted it so bad. I said, you know, your right sweety, I don't want it that bad. I cancelled the order and I haven't bought a single thing from Guitar Center since. That was a good 7 or 8 years ago. Maybe more now that I think about it. The amp wasn't the only reason I stopped buying there, but it was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. That said, I did take them for a like new condition hollow body with matching hardshell case w/logo for $240 bucks that normally sold for $1000 w/case. This was before the amp debacle. They said they couldn't get rid of it because it was left handed so I helped them out with it.
  12. Now that I think about it, it probably isn't a problem being caused by CCCleaner. I thought it might because today CC Cleaner was trying to goad me into upgrading while Sonar was playing today. But since the audio glitch always happens around the same measure in the piece, it's not likely being caused by some event involving another app, i.e. virus checker, downloading virus updates, etc. If it were it would not always happen around the same measure.
  13. Rob Reiner was so influential and impactful to modern society. If you look at the totality of what he did, I'd dare say it was profound. He did not deserve to have it end like it did. Assuming what they are saying is correct, getting murdered by your own child has to be the most horrid thing that could happen.
  14. If it *was* in roman numerals, it would be much harder for them to confuse the two.
  15. Was worth a shot.
  16. My portable 2TB nvme drives transferring EW HO to another were writing 32mb a second on a power USB 3 hub. That's HDD speed. At least they don't load that slow. I don't care now, That project is done. At last with spinning drives they let you know if they are approaching death,
  17. Screenshots of console view! With project playing. And please use proper screenshots not your cell phone.
  18. I learned that if you want to reduce the size of this delete the sample folders that are not for close or main mic. You basically keep the first 2 folders of each instrument. You can also just download what you would use in Opus. Also if you email their support you can get an extra license.
  19. People who know English make the same mistake. They are usually younger people. I have an address that ends with a 5 but somehow those Prime people confuse a 5 with a 3 and it's not Roman numerals. I don't do Prime so when something comes I know it isn't for 3. This error happens 3 times a year. Cool thing is Sweetwater has a warehouse very close to me. Everything is next day for me and I don't have to pay for shipping. Back in the day of shrinkwrap if you ordered from EW they charged you for overnight shipping. If you are not home it would get shipped back to them.
  20. No! Why? still working!
  21. Note- the track has been corrected. The first post mix was messed up, two drum tracks were playing together. The track is now fixed (play in the first post) and now the drum kit is mixed correctly, which is how they recorded it. I did no mixing on the drums. And now you can hear how nice this kit sounds.
  22. Yesterday
  23. Absolutely revolting.
  24. No. It has a crown and if you read what Jesse posted you will see in bold print that Membership is required. It’s nothing to get excited about yet but it’s a start. Still no way to brighten the background of the PRV.
  25. i clicked on edit, and the free tier window popped up. Can we edit the colors with the theme editor using Free Tier?
  26. Has anyone seen how a certain person reported it? Shows his real light.
  27. Generic coupon code: 2025WINTER_40 Great time to buy my favourite piano library which is pretty spendy at full price! https://premiersoundfactory.com/piano-premier-kawai-legend/
