This is a neat little VST, the lack of sounds isn't that big of a deal when you consider that the sounds are of high quality, plus there is nothing stopping you from finding the original synth and running it with jBridge.

Done and done, voted with the intensity of a thousand suns.

I wonder how hard it would be to convert the Dimension Pro patches to Kontakt Player format

The Palette Symphonic Sketchpad library is great for a starter library, however, I am looking for ways to expand the library in ways the brush packs couldn't. Namely, I am looking for a fine concert Harpsichord and Celesta. Some world instruments like a Pan Flute/Quena would be great too.

Yes, XPand!2 is a very good investment. I'd been able to find my preferred sounds fairly quickly with it.

Yes. But I'll take a look into it.

Yeah, I do think that the issue is related to having an effects insert loaded in the aux track. I have sent an email to the Cakewalk tech support about it.

That's weird because I have the outs spread individually.

Well that did it, apparently it didn't like Scheps Omni Channel being on the Session Drummer 3 patch point track. Deleting it before loading up Dimension Pro did the trick, and loading Scheps Omni Channel again doesn't seem to cause any conflicts. Now the next question would be why it happened.

I think it's worth it to mention that Roland Sound Canvas VA is a great replacement for TTS-1 with better sounds and the ability to edit the sounds more deeply, and include EFX. It's basically a hybrid of the SC-8820, SC-88 pro, SC-88 and SC-55 and with some sound design, mixing and mastering in an FX chain you can get some good results. Example:

Kontakt has a very deep internal bussing and FX-chaining system that can let you do a lot of creative things to your samples, even better since you can script your own user interfaces for the instruments you create.

Martinic Kee Bass is an emulation of a rare vintage bass synthesizer being offered for free : https://www.martinic.com/en/products/kee-bass FananTeam is also currently offering Monica and Stringya for free. The former is a monophonic dual-layered wavetable synth, and the latter is a 4-piece synth strings ensemble.

Try to reproduce the crash, test to see if if it happens with a blank project file. If it does, then make a dump file when the program freezes and include it, along with your project file/folder over to the Cakewalk staff to take a look at it.

The Meter/Key view is a great tip, it would help when I mess with alternating time sig progressions like 7/8-6/8-7/8-15/16 repeatingx4

So I have a problem when working on this specific project where Cakewalk would lock up when attempting to load Dimension Pro as a synth on it. It would lock up infinitely, with the CPU usage in the 35%-42% range. Even when closing the program, the process stayed stuck to the memory until I suspended and then terminated the process. (Using taskkill didn't work.) That, unfortunately, ended up hijacking the ASIO driver and I was forced to use WASAPI shared for the rest of the session, because only a full system restart would bring the ASIO driver ability back. I have attached the problematic project file. The dump file is sent to tech support. What's weird is that it's this project specifically that is causing the issue, I tested loading Dimension Pro x64 in a blank project and it loaded just fine. Freedom Redux.cwp
