ValhallaDSP’s SuperMassive has always been free. And always been incredible. Now updated to version 2.0 with two more reverb modes: https://valhalladsp.com/2022/06/01/two-new-supermassive-reverb-modes/

SNEAK PREVIEW............ Larry, this fall, when he gets his "free" Vocalsynth 2.5 and Nectar 3 plus extra pro.........

And there it is again. It's never asctuall "Calkewalk" itself with this forum! LOL. You had to settle for "a lot of times" when you couldn't provoke the actual response you wanted. In your thread, I and others repeatedly said words to the effect of "if you think the latest version is causing the problem, roll back to the previous version." But it seems like you wanted to pick a fight and had a heck of a time doing so. 😄 We have more than one person in this thread who is saying that this build broke something on their system and not a single one suggesting that it's not an issue with the Early Access Cakewalk build. Sometimes it is, and then we help the developers fix it by sending in as detailed a crash report as we can, complete with our system specs. With audio apps, it's critically important that developers know what hardware the person's running. Not so they can fingerpoint or say "you don't have enough RAM and you need to buy an SSD" but because they need to know what hardware Cakewalk, or "Calkewalk" or whatever you want to call it, may be having trouble with. Obviously, it works fine on their systems or they wouldn't have sent it out. I myself, this morning, installed the EA build on my laptop and suddenly, projects that played fine the night before were clicking and then grinding to a halt. I tried this, I tried that, including rolling back to the last release build. Then I discovered that I had both onboard sound and my Presonus interface enabled as output devices using WASAPI. Apparently Cakewalk doesn't like that, so I unchecked the onboard audio in Preferences and all was well again. ASIO would probably work even better. Last night, I didn't have the Presonus plugged in, so it was a completely different output device configuration. All this crap matters. It's impossible to say, because AFAIK you've never even said what version of Windows you're running. The bigger question is: if you have all of these other DAW's that work smoothly on your system, and Cakewalk is crashing, and you're unwilling to divulge the information needed to figure out why, why don't you just use one or all of those other DAW's? They're all fine programs that pretty much do what Cakewalk does (aside from crashing on your system). Surely you'd be happier?

I’m a guitar player. Just because I have a bass and can navigate the fretboard doesn’t make me a bass player. Mostly I played with guitarists who “played bass”. It rarely “worked”. 9 times out of 10 I come up with what I think is a “clever” bass line. Then I go back and fix it as it does not sync with the drums or support the tune. Often I find midi bass pacs a bit “pedestrian”, until I hear it in context. I’m finding myself bonding with EZB, and getting “there” much quicker and with better results. YMMV t

They're not old, they're "Classics"....just like me

Blessed be. This will make a huge improvement in my drum recording and comping workflow.

Now this is a no brainer: https://denver.craigslist.org/msg/d/strasburg-sonar-x1-producer-software/7491448517.html

I'm known to buy doubles of things without checking if I already own it. I'll not be fooled on this one. Even if it is "like new"

Thomann Music has the EBX 3 pack for $143. That's practically 50% off the retail price of $89/ea. https://www.thomannmusic.com/toontrack_ebx_value_pack.htm

It's a no brainer to avoid this if you don't have EZ Bass.

I’m seeing stars now

Streamworks Audio's SWA Complete SONAR X2 is old, but covers 90%+ of what Cakewalk does: @abacab has kindly listed a description and links to each chapter in this post:

https://www.dskmusic.com/dsk-soundfx-vol-1/ DSK SoundFx Vol. 1 features 32 Sound Fx, featuring vinyls, thunders, waves, people…. Level control. Midi automation. Win and Mac compatible (32 & 64 bits VST, VST3 and AU).

Only 12 more months to go (hopefully) for 50% upgrade to K14U, and 36 months for 50% upgrade to K15UCE !

And claim it’s IK fault!

Bundle up nvm

And now you won't (if you use CbB 🙂)

I joined right as the "Sonar For Life" campaign started. I bought it for $500 and thought I'd never have to spend another dime.

I sent this: Just a heads up: You're right that this was awesome software but Sonar X1 is abandonware and can no longer be registered. Cakewalk was purchased by Bandlab. The latest version is Cakewalk by Bandlab and is 100% free. Still awesome though. https://www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk?lang=en Here's the reply: Wow! How bout that?

This loyalty offers on the iZotope site will never make sense to me. I have Ozonone 9 Advanced and I have an offer for Ozone 9 Standard for only $99. OK... I also have Ozone 8 and Ozone Elements registered in my account. But... still... this does not make any sense.

At least we can still all agree that Monster speaker cables are worth the money, right? 😬

Do you have enough for the whole class?

It was more enticing when there was a 1 year Groove3 pass included.

You dog! whoops, I mean Bluzdog! 😎 @Bapuhave you received your serials? Mine just hit!

Our band Citizen Regen uses a real live drummer.

While these bundles aren't specifically discounted, they are a discount vs buying individually - these are good items to add to a shopping list, for the occasional storewide coupons.

Yes. I get on with it just fine. Great for rock vocals. J

@Grem I'll give you $600 + shipping for that abomination of a guitar. I'll get me coat.

Not if you live with Animal 🤣

Or, make friends with a drummer and record real drums. It's easier in the long run.

It's exclusive at 79$. Others can sell for less.

Classics never die 😄

And me!

I'm ashamed and see my search algo failed. Word "Valhalla" is not enough apparently.

I’ve been keeping a six pac for drums and EZKeys around for a long time. Never had an issue. I’m not worried Toon would ever reject a serial #. t

The Shamen - Progen (Move Any Mountain) I seem to have a ridiculous number of remixes of this, including a full CD with 14 mixes plus all the samples to remix it yourself.

If I did not have Insight (1) Ozone 8 Standard RX7 Standard most of the PA plugins above then this would be an interesting deal! But just for the sake of the update it is not worth IMO. This is the crux with iZotope, they really don't value what you have. And updates/upgrades are so expensive!

Crossgrade and Upgrade to Neutron 4 are the same price with code GROUP - $125.16 https://www.jrrshop.com/izotope?dir=desc&order=special_from_date

but like I keep pointing out, I just had no clue!! And my guitar, well it just had no glue!!

Ain't got no house in Westchester No fresh ground cold brew No high plate of becan Ain't got Nothing but the blues No fresh strings to wind Play Am at 425 Covid vaccine made me pregnant Cant see outa my good eye My shoes are split My blue tubes crackle My stop lights don't matter Can't afford gas. And I'm a terrible poet.

I like these plugins, but I do find it a bit confusing with the astrology naming scheme.

Yeah, those instructions should do the trick. Whenever I use WASAPI with my laptop's Realtek I'm actually getting better performance than some of the "pro" interfaces I've used with proper ASIO drivers. There *is* a Realtek ASIO driver but this is legitimate hot garbage and doesn't even meet the basic ASIO specs - definitely do not use this, WASAPI is the way to go with a Realtek.

Thanks, I was not understanding I needed to press shift as well. I seem to have the same as you now..the pan knobs work but they don't track all the way. A bit of an issue for my L-C-R mixing style 😃 I'm reasonably happy with the functionality I DO have now though, I am fast with shortcuts so Save - Undo etc wouldn't be used anyway. So long as I have transport and fader banks I think I'm good. Thanks again for your help.

Hey your serial is showing. You should edit those links.

I've been trying this with an Oxygen Pro 49, I assume it's the same firmware as your Pro 61. Similarly, the pan knobs don't work properly (not full 100% range of motion, only around 75%) but this isn't new to this release. I can't find any reference to high or standard resolution so I don't think that's a solution. I can make the pan work using ACT learn, but it would be nice to have it work properly in Cubase mode.

I didn't ask, nuntheles(Paul) glad ye did knot answer

Thank you @cclarry

What's the difference with the real Playbeat? Knowing PB, they'll offer an upgrade from Playbeat Lite to the full version next month
