Ok...found out some information. He's alive, but in the hospital and not well. But I was told that he will contact us when he gets out of the Hospital... So that's good news!

Great news! I was just about to suggest that perhaps he's still alive... didn't wanna jinx it! Thank you so much Larsy for all your efforts!!! Awesome work as always 🙂

The mission was a success! I probably still need to get him a better monitor but he's in business for now. Thanks again for all of the input! Rocky

Good grief, that's good news!!!! Whoever (hopefully) speaks with him, please pass on our most sincere wishes!!!!

45% of me would like have it and 65% thinks all these type of sounds have become very cliché already. The other 10% of me was never very good with numbers.

Hope springs eternal!! God bless.

Yes indeed, best wishes to Terry and his family!

Yes, let us al hope for the best!

I think that, in light of the new info, we hold off on anything until we hear from him...

I think that we should try to fulfil his last wish here on this forum and get the money to his family no matter what. Even if it takes until April, May... it means nothing else that more effort from our part. We will get there at the end! Steps: 1. So he had left 3 kids behind. Contacting local schools and asking / trying to find out in which school they go to. 2. as Grem suggested. Contacting local tv station 3. Contacting local newspapers . Same as above with the addition to ask for the ''death announcement'' being made last couple of months that would match the name surname you have for Terry. 4. Anyone on the Facebook that was a friend with him that we could find and get in touch with?? 5. If we pay for the advertising on the Facebook, with the text that would explain our mission, it wouldn't cost that much...

This is off the top of my head.... Reach out to local tv stations "Action Reporter" in his area and tell them the story and where we at and how we'd love to give the money to his family as he intended it to be.

Where is the search at right now? We know his town, but IIRC that's about all know. I'd love to help the search but I think for privacy purposes any further info hasn't been divulged. I'm with Mibby (and a lot of us, I know) that supporting Terry's family is priority one. If we've exhausted all avenues to find his next of kin, that's cool, but we should at least decide the direction we want to go with the donation.

Don't even say that! While I like Magix Products, I wouldn't want them to be involved with Cakewalk...

Now, when we add more than one audio file into Cakewalk, lets say for mixing, Cakewalk adds "(i)" as a suffix indicating the number of track. Also, when we Export tracks or stems it is mandatory to enter a name which ends up as the prefix, preceding a "-". And the output will also have a suffix of "-i". It all started with the File names "File 1, File 2, File 3". It would be a good thing to not have these additional characters added while adding or exporting the project. Please make the addition of the name aka prefix optional (incase anyone wants it). Let me know if a change in setting would get what I requested.

Not @Fleer but I really like Lounge Lizard. it has a certain "bark" when you lay into the tines. Pianoteq can sometimes come across as too clean or sparkly, which is alright if that is what you need but the dirt just makes things feel more authentic.

That's great news! I'm in when he contacts us!

Here is a clip covering Acoustic Scoring Guitars. There is a lot of content in the library. I love that they give you all of the techniques mapped together and as individual patches. Heavyocity Scoring Acoustic Guitars | Livestream Flashback

How do you still have these "resources?" Don't you know Larry??! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ride. Bachman Turner Overdrive - Let It Ride:

5 years ago this week I decided to try and get into writing instrumental music for TV shows, it's been a big learning curve but I've been a Cakewalk user since the mid 90's I've written around 400 track in that 5yrs - most of those are now in Music Libraries where they can be used by various TV production companies - it's a tough gig , I've had about 50 TV shows use my music now, the money is not amazing but seeing your music on TV is kinda cool. Here is a playlist of a bunch of them

Glad to see a fellow musician getting a little "traction" with their work. Especially when using CbB! Kudo's! t

According to the guy who rebuilt mine, SSD failure is much exaggerated and something of an urban myth. True in the early days of SSDs apparently but not these days, provided you stick with reputable brands. I don't know, just glad to have mine back and working again. Andy

The king kingeth !

Get. This. It’s the best of AAS and the best of modeling (together with Pianoteq).

I own the Engl Savage 120 and really dig it (gives me a good chance to compensate for my real Savage at home 😉 ). I also have the others via subscription (testing them for a year and then buying the best with the subscription voucher PA sent me - pretty fair game I think). I like the Friedman (DS-40 more than the BE-100) and the Diezels also the Fuchs Train II. Maybe the Orange (Rockergain) and Mesa though they lack the original appearance as they are not licenced by the Real Amps manufacturers. Those PA Plugins are really enjoyable in my opinion. You get great tones quickly without fiddling around to much. Decent amount of good soonding and verstile Cab and Mic chains, gets you up and running quickly. And the look of the licensed Amps is great not to be underestimated I think. Makes you wanna play them. 😉

The short answer is, it depends. Sound is subjective, and to my ears, I can hear the difference if I lower the parameters for high gain targets. The less distorted the sound, the easier it is to train, so for clean or low distortion I might get away with lowering the parameters. But I want it to work as well as it can for any potential sound, so it’s my best guess based on limited testing on the hardware I have available. User feedback on what works and what doesn’t has helped a lot! With the training, you’re trying to minimize loss, which is the difference between the predicted sound and the actual sound, so I can put a number value on the accuracy of the models. I also look at plots of the waveforms to visually see how close the sound is.

I love your videos. But I also love that you sound like one of my favorite actors, Michael McKean.

Just wondering if anyone else has gotten this Cakewalk by Bandlab DAW thingy? I don't wanna be the first and get stuck with something I didn't pay for! 😆

Bite your tongue, man! Nobody wants that. What if Behringer bought Fender? Fiat bought Lexus? Spirit Airlines bought Singapore Airlines? The North Korean government bought Microsoft? Löwenbraü was being brewed in frickin' Texas? Oh, sh*t, that last one's already come true.

Audiffex has a very nice Gallien-Krueger LE for free. Adds a nice bass amp sim to your bass VSTi.

Love that Chromaphone 3! And maybe it's time to check out Unify again. Tried the demo last year.

That's just weird. For whatever reason, I literally just watched this video while procrastinating doing some work...

Hey! Developer here, thanks for all the feedback and models! High cpu usage is currently the trade-off for the flexibility of copying pedal/amps. There's alot of number crunching behind the scenes that allow for the same model structure to produce a wide range of tones (as opposed to optimizing for one specific sound). From what I've heard from the Quad Cortex, my SmartAmp plugins are not quite there in terms of accuracy to the target hardware, but hoping to improve it. Also, the SmartAmpPro is intended to be used with reverb or IR's, so if you're running it by itself it will sound dry. Here's a model I made from recordings of the Gojira plugin; which definitely gave the capture some difficulty. The result is a pretty good sounding distortion model, but not 1:1 with the Gojira sound. Enjoy! gojira_test_model.json

Those people probably made out a better, since they get to spend that money on better plug-ins and virtual instruments. Half of the Cakewalk stuff was super old and not updated in like a decade. There wasn't really that much value in a lot of that. Whether they see the light of day is only relevant if they are either throwon into the package as freebies or sold for ridiculously low prices. Otherwise, there are better plug-ins to be had on the market; and many SONAR users used those plug-ins. SONAR license holders who paid for a decade or more deserved to have the DAW developed as aggressively back then as it is now, and it honestly wasn't. BandLab has done what most companies that purchase a product and make it a freebie don't... They've actually made it a better, more attractive product. Imagine if Cakewalk was purchased by MAGIX or Corel?

Very similar to Why start another thread about essentially the same subject? You could have added the system details to your original thread. Although, I doubt the additional info would have changed the replies.

I’m happy to announce that Cakewalk is getting the attention it deserves from industry professionals! I encourage you to watch the video above I did with Warren Huart of Produce Like A Pro. This was a promotional venture to kick off the release of my new course in Warren’s Pro Mix Academy. (The Ultimate Cakewalk Course) If you ever have any questions feel free to email me. I also go live once a week for Live QA and Tutorials. Last but not least here is an entire playlist showing love to this DAW: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwqZ0GPSfFgbc8gLCxaYngRGVvlaf57gI If you’d like to learn more about the Cakewalk course you can find it on the Pro Mix Academy here: https://transactions.sendowl.com/stores/5349/205312

Thanks. Makes sense.

Steinberg confirmed that the official update is available now. You can download it here.

last day at intro price...

I'm loving it "warts" and all, especially the huge ambiance! 👍's t

I can't find the video now but I remember seeing an A/B/C comparison of SSD vs HDD by Linus Tech Tips on YouTube. He set up 3 gaming rigs side by side and didn't tell his staff what type of drive was in each one and had them try them all. They all said the one with the HDD was faster and more responsive. I tried to find the video but he's done several SSD vs HDD comparisons and I couldn't find the specific one I was looking for. What I took away from it was yeah they are fast for large file transfers and installations but in real world applications like gaming HDD actually performed better. I'm not sure how that translates to the DAW domain. I'm running 2 250GB SSD's in my DAW (See sig). Previously on my old i5 750 I had 2 HDD's and one died. I ended up running off of external USB memory cards from an old camera. The roughly inch long rectangular ones. I saw no difference in performance with the exception of installation speed. I could have more than quadrupled my drive space for the same cost if I would have went with HDD's this time. I regret not doing that now. My system seems to go through phases depending on what Microsoft does with Win10 at any given moment anyway. Sometimes it's snappy and lightning fast, then an update will come through and it will be sluggish until the next update, then it's snappy again. I hate everything about Windows 10.

I don't have any suggestions for the final mix because I thought it sounded pretty good to me - nicely done. I hope Rachael deserved this composition😄

Cakewalk's staff view isn't meant to be a full score editor, it's a staff view. Given that most of the dedicated score editors out there support rewire, there's always the option to use them without having to switch DAW.

If you are the sole author of multiple songs, you will likely want to take advantage of the relatively new option of "Group Applications for Unpublished Works" (GRUW). That will allow you to copyright up to 10 individual songs for a single filing fee. To use that option you must use the online (eCO) registration, and upload each song as a separate digital file. You can apply for both the composition (music and lyrics) and the recording rights at the same time, but be careful to be sure that you are doing so when you file. Most song writers are primarily interested in registering the composition, and the quality of the performance and recording is not an issue, they just want the convenience of not having to transcribe the music into standard notation. The advantage of the GRUW, aside from the cost, is that each song gets its own individual copyright, which makes it somewhat cleaner to license individual songs. If you want to copyright the actual recording of a group of songs that you have organized into an album, then you need to register as a collected work uploaded as a single file, and the assumption is that it will be released in that form.

All great mixes! It's a shame the money isn't there for this sort of thing. At least mot much of it. Thanks for sharing!

Ample is well known around here. They make quality stuff. Their free P-Bass is really good too, and I bought their 5-string bass. Don't have any of their electrics yet.
