  2. The Maag/NTI airband has been a favorite of mine for decades. The Plug in(s), also great. I just copped the Kaz 747, and will report back when I can.

  3. I just bought it and realize that it is NOT all their plugins. Not that they were trying to hide that, I just didn't bother to verify what wasn't in the deal, my bad. Looks like the Integral Studio Pack III is missing: BusDriver Garbage LSD (but it is on sale $19.90 @ Best Service) the Analog Studio Rack collection Drum Tools E Channel - Essential Channel Strip (everything in the Essential Studio Suite is there except this). on sale $5.99 at Best Service Magma 80s Spaces If is missed something on the list drop me a line and I'll edit it. While this is still a hell of a deal it would have been nice to have gotten some of the other pieces. Not sure why they omitted the Essential Channel Strip. (though it does look horribly dated) I already had BusDriver and the Analog Studio Rack collection so already had what I consider the 2 biggest omissions.

  4. Here's a song (and video) I did this week. The song is the Dead Kennedys' Holiday in Cambodia but with new lyrics about an anthropomorphic poseur dog with Short Man's Syndrome. Obviously. Some songs just write themselves. Also, there's some guitar nonsense.

  6. In the first moment I missed also that not everything is included. Luckily I had noticed it before I purchased! 😄 But still I think it is a great deal! One thing that has been important for me: Now I have the latest version of the Blue Tubes that support mouse wheel on the controls! 👍 The version that we got with Sonar Platinum did not support this and it was not updatable! Now all of their plugins except the Analog Signature Pack support mouse wheel.

  7. I had to go through them all before buying as I knew it wasn't including everything, but there were quite a few very similarly named plugins (for someone not familiar with their stuff) so it took a little while to understand what it included, or more so didn't. I would've loved it to include Analog Studio Rack and 80s Spaces. I'm a sucker for reverbs! But it was a whole lot of bang for buck and lifetime free updates including updating to VST3 free when released sounded pretty good to me. There are some I'll likely never use, but there are some pretty decent ones in there that make it worth it.

  8. Love you can use Jam points on their hardware. I want one of these. The reality is it would get ignored like most of my plugins.

  9. Last night we played one of our favorite venues, a winery in the Cascade foothills. The stage is right in the vineyard, surrounded by grapes. Even better, a stage you can drive right up to. I got to use my fancy new crank-up speaker stands for the first time, as there was room to place the subs properly - in front, side-by-side. We left the covers on them. These covers let you do that, with a zippered flap in front that can be folded back and velcroed in place. Putting those covers on is a PIA, as you have to lower the subs into them, *****-end first. We gotta start making enough money to hire a roadie. I am still blown away by how good those RCFs sound. Better than a hack band like us deserves. I set up my TASCAM DR-07 mini recorder on a mic stand out front. The idea is to record our arrangements for the new guitarist, when we find one. Unfortunately, our current guitarist happens to be pretty good. Good enough to set our expectations high, so the search goes on. It was the first time I'd used the DR-07, which I'd bought just for this purpose. I didn't even know if it was working correctly. I set levels and let it run for the entire 2-hour show, hoping for the best. Ended up with a 1.4GB MP3. Never seen a 1.4GB MP3 file before. Turned out what I got was 2 hours of wind noise with some music under it. Enough for our future guitarist to learn the arrangements, though.

  11. Thanks for info. From web page: To get most of their plugins for $39 (with eventual updated DSP code & resizable GUIs) and get free updates to VST3 versions? Sounds like no brainer territory. Edit: corrected 'All of their plugins', its most of them not all of them. See following posts for more information.

  14. Hats off to Hyundai (brand) for their success with the Kia brand. Kia was (and still is) the secondary brand to the Hyundai (car). Back in the '90s, before Hyundai's quality improvement efforts, the Hyundai cars were pretty awful, and Kias were terrible. To quickly improve product quality ahead of their international push, Hyundai did something brilliant. When Toyota released the 5th generation of the Camry, Hyundai bought the entire 4th gen manufacturing line and moved it to Korea. Their next generation of Sonatas were 4th gen Camrys with different sheet metal. They reverse-engineered the 4th gen Camry and adapted what they learned to their own design and manufacturing efforts. They still needed to offer that 10 year warranty to overcome existing buyer hesitation due to previous awful product quality. But...it took them several years before they applied those learnings to Kia. On a relative level, Kia was their Chevy to the Hyundai Oldsmobile (before GM corrupted it). Now, I've met several people who think that Hyundai cars are the second brand of Kia. THAT'S excellent marketing. I spent 9 months riding around Seoul in taxis when I worked there. The 'mobum' (deluxe) taxis were the new Camrys/Sonatas, while the regular taxis were Kias and similar. They were miserable. Hyundai has come a LONG way.

  17. Excellent. No nits nor crits. I'm hearing a production that has realized exactly the mood/texture it set out to create. Another winner👍I'd like to respectfully recommend a listen to the Everything But the Girl song "Driving" as a song with some of the same uplifting musical areas Sub Vibe deliver so well. Please, carry on🎶🎶🎶🎶

  22. This was not too hard to get set up and working and it does exactly what I was looking for! I wanted something to remotely click play record stop etc. and I wanted something so I could tap in a midi drum sequence on my phone with a light touch of my fingers. For tom rolls, cymbals, snare, bass drum etc. I do not think the XYpads have velocity sensitivity but that is okay, I usually set everything at 64 initially anyway. It also works smooth as could possibly be even when Cakewalk is in play mode, and there is no perceptible lag with midi but I assume that could change once my project is proliferated with track and buss effects. I just bought this to enter midi. KAT Percussion KTMP1 Multipad Drum and Percussion Pad https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/KTMP1--kat-percussion-ktmp1-multipad-drum-and-percussion-pad I thought I could just use my fingers to tap in a beat but even with the sensitivity set high on the drum controller it requires a pat rather than a tap/touch. It randomly misses a tap. The phone app responds to even the slightest tap. This app stays connected all the time I only need to open it on my phone and as long as the midi track is selected in my DAW this controls it. I would like to return the drum controller to Sweetwater but I think it is cool and it could come in handy someday. It did not cost too much either and it is really easy to use. I could have used my midi synth controller for this but it also seems less responsive than the glass surface of my Samsung Galaxy s22 phone. Thank you for this suggestion. I have a complete electronic drum kit I bought about a year ago that I am still paying for on my credit card, for this purpose and never used sitting in my spare room all set up and covered with a cloth. I seem to find out these solutions shortly after I buy something that does not quite work. And the solution to this problem was about 5 dollars for the TouchDAW app.

  23. I worked for Sam Ash Music NYC in the late 70 's. We had the Kramer guitars with the aluminum necks ... To be honest with you they played very nice and they were high quality guitars. The price range on those were a little out of my range or I may have considered getting one . ( they cost as much as a Les back then ...about a grand ) I used to kid around with people and tell them this is not the guitar you want to drag around in zero degree weather and play right after getting in from out of the cold ... Stanley Jordan used to come into the store once or twice a month and play his .....Man we were all hypnotized when he came in and did that . Kenny

  24. TouchDAW is great in case you have a tablet. It works on phones as well, but since you can't have all controls visible, that introduce some limitations. Another approach is to start with tunable solution: https://www.azslow.com/index.php/topic,295.0.html Unlike TouchDAW, OSC with AZ Controller does not require extra background service. You can tune it for your needs (well, that require some effort...) and you are not limited in the length of track/parameter names. ----------------- It can be just wireless transport buttons is everything you need. Then check https://www.azslow.com/index.php/topic,288.0.html It is web based, no extras on the phone side (and so fast and free to try/use).

  26. There was a weird news article recently that both Baltimore and Delaware police are offering FREE steering wheel locks for Hyundai and Kia owners since they are the most frequently stolen vehicles (and keeps going up). Left me sort of baffled since 1) that implies Hyundai and Kia have no GPS built into the vehicle (??), and 2) steering wheel locks take all of 15 seconds to bypass. I hit that forum bug the other day myself. Editing out an errant "s" in a reply with quotes turned my entire reply into a quote and deleted the quoted material to boot

  27. Cakewalk is only concerned about the vst files, not the presets or samples (those are opened by whichever vst you load into Cakewalk). A few things here: The two entries you made with "Spitfire Audio" in them in Cakewalk Preferences for "VST Scan Paths" can be removed. The others mirror what you have in the Spitfire Audio app, so if installed, Cakewalk will find them. In the Spitfire Audio app, if you click on the "LABS" tab at the top, be sure you have installed the instrument(s) you want to use. Also be sure that the "Default content path" (on the left in your screenshots above in preferences for that app) are valid paths... those are where Spitfire Audio app is putting the samples. When inserting a VST Instrument (VSTi), Cakewalk is only opening the instrument itself, and letting the instrument "do its thing" at that point. The simplest method to insert a VSTi is to drag/drop from the Browser on the right edge of Cakewalk (hotkey B opens and closes that). In Cakewalk's Browser you need to first click on "Plugins" at the very top, then "Instruments" directly below that. The Browser will then show which instruments you have installed. Scroll down to "Spitfire Audio" and there should be an entry in that folder for "LABS." Drag and Drop "LABS" to the left side of the Track View into an empty area and you will get the pop up to insert the instrument. To be simpler, select "Simple Instrument Track" in the top left, and then "OK." The LABS instrument should then pop up for you, and you select the instrument/presets from the top of that window.

  28. No worries, you were helpful. Maybe I just needed a little more explanation, which you provided here in the follow up. The only thing I really want to do with the dry mix is to cut out mistakes and pull good parts out of different takes to paste back in. I have a good case of tinnitus so I definitely don't trust my ears to mess around with EQ or effects, those things I outsource. Great idea about posting to Songs. I recently moved all of my recording equipment and DAW desktop out of my one bedroom apartment and into a spare bedroom in my friend's house. So it may take a few days to get over there and export some projects to WAV for posting here. Thanks again!

  30. I saw that today. Glad to see they are back doing new/original synths. JMO: Too many people making emulations/clones of old stuff. Yes, the old stuff has its place, especially when it is a well-done blend of "Vintage Gear" with contemporary UI/software techniques, but I am finding new/original synths can spark creativity if done well.

  32. The export dialogue allows you to choose any combination of Sample and bit depth. It doesn't matter what the project was recorded at. To bad you ended up with 44.1, that sucks. But there's nothing stopping you from exporting it at 48/24. I think it's brain dead that Cakewalk seems to set the default recording to 44.1? It's like a 12 years ago concept. Almost nobody uses CD's anymore. Everything is on video now and that is 48.

  33. Pretty darn nice. This piece has a lot going on. Lots of different EQ ranges to optimize, I can imagine the fun (i.e.: lots of work) you had to get everything sounding as good as it does. More instruments (horns, organ, percussion) would add to the impact and musicality. Real nice as is🎶🎶🎶🎶

  35. This is great. The band sounds all on the same page aiming for all the right hits and landing bulls eyes. The girl has a great voice, a natural that is 100% recording friendly. Agree with Tom that there is a bit too much sibilance in the recording, that's about the only element I'd adjust. Oh, maybe add another horn or two to give those horn sections a bit more powerful delivery🎶🎶🎶🎶

  36. https://gaga.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=AudioPerformance.05.html According to the documentation the sample rate of imported files is converted to the project sample rate. It appears that you can have files with different bit depths in the project, but there is a setting to set the bit depth of imported audio http://gaga.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=AudioPerformance.06.html http://gaga.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=AudioPerformance.09.html If your project is at 16/44.1K then I would export directly to 24 bits. Internally Cakewalk is using 32 or 64 bit floats. So if it converts the floats to 16 bit and then exports to 24 then it doesn't matter the order you export in. If it goes directly from the float to 24 then a direct export to 24 bits would be recommended.

  37. I made a simple CAL script that solves this by deleting all MIDI notes with 0 length / velocity, which somehow still triggered all pads in ADSR Drum Machine. If anyone finds this useful, you can find it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16tx4aq6TJ9xMuP7lG-CTZ6wArb2N5o_c/view?usp=drive_link This is what it contains (you can check it by right clicking > opening it with your favourite text editor): Put it in your Cakewalk install directory > Cakewalk Content > Cakewalk Core > CAL Scripts. To use it, select the clip by clicking on its header (so all notes are highlighted) and click on Process > Run CAL (or assign a keyboard shortcut to it).

  44. I have been actively assigning new keyboard shortcuts to cakewalk functions that I use often. However, many functions are not assignable. For example, SHIFT-R turns step-record on/off. But, there is no function to close the step-record menu. This function requires using the mouse. It would be great to bring more (unassigned) functions into the Keyboard Shortcuts menu, to allow users to assign more key bindings.
