I was having fun going through all the soundbanks and then had to update my video driver for another project and now the OsTirus crashes when I launch the GUI. Does anyone know a box I can uncheck (or other similar maneuver) in the nvidia control panel that might resolve this issue?

They should add Tonex SE to the Axe I/O 2 free product dropdown - we would have chosen it.

The SE version is very small but we picked it as a free choice for a new studio that bought the Axe I/O and was entitled to 2 free products. They are only interested in effects so we chose it and Mixbox, the only two offerings in the list that were effects. The drop down was only Syntronik SE, Modo Drums SE, SampleTank SE and the above.

SQ8ROM is a sampled version of SQ8L, a VST plugin based on the sound and synthesizer architecture of the Ensoniq SQ80. The Ensoniq SQ80 was a 1988 synthesizer based on a wavetable with an analog filter to generate its sound, something common in the 80s. The result is lo-fi and charming. SQ8ROM comes with 168 sounds, perfect for 80s music productions! SQ8ROM is a must-have if you produce synthwave, synthpop, vaporwave, and any other 80s-influenced genres. Available as a VST/VST3/AU plugin for Windows 8.1/10/11 and macOS El Capitan and up (natively compatible with M1 chips and all the latest versions of macOS).

8am EST CET to EST Converter - Convert Central Time to Eastern Time - World Time Buddy Already have it - never used it - I'll probably snag a copy for the studio I'm working with that doesn't have the full T-Racks

Interesting this thread popped up - I just happened to install Resolve recently to compare it to my Humble sourced Vegas Pro 19.

That is exactly what I was thinking and I had a nice buttoned down file sync scenario ready but this has a happy ending because I decided that once in a while the customer is always right and I like to think out of the box when possible. He's an excellent mixer that has a day job working in operations for "the worlds biggest band no one has heard of" 😀 I thought to myself that this technically isn't that complicated so therefore someone has built a solution. I looked around for several hours, found some opensource solutions like SonoBus that would involve opening firewall ports and other impossibilities when working with a remote person's network. Then I stumbled across Audiomovers plugin ListenTo. I'm allergic to subscriptions for client software but if it involves a network component I'll consider it if the price is reasonable. They charge $100 a year and it couldn't be simpler. You put the plugin in the Master bus, sign in, choose audio codec (we picked PCM 24) and a latency setting we left at default. We're using Jump Desk which is free to remote to the mixing PC. The "remote mixing engineer" fires up Cakewalk once remoted in and opens the ListenTo plugin and starts the stream which also copies a web URL that the remote user pastes into his local web browser. In that control you pick your local ASIO device and the level. One of the reasons I pursued this avenue is that I would have had to spend hours getting all the plugins installed on the remote user's PC. I compared a project I have a local copy of with the sound streaming from the remote - they sound identical. I'm sorry this sounds like a native ad, if you look around this forum you know I'm a bargain hunter who doesn't like paying for stuff like this but in this case, it solves an ongoing headache I would be the support person for. I'm happy about this turn of events.

I'm in IT and have worked with remote workers for 25 years going back to the first Citrix offerings. Audio isn't something we normally address, in fact when various remote software offerings began to support it, we found it an annoyance. I had a session yesterday where I thought I was going to help an audio engineer in another state copy over the Cakewalk project and audio files and then set him up the plugins we use. I estimated a couple hours of work and he would be mixing away. Instead I got pushback. They wanted to stream the audio from our mixing desktop back to their system and mix "remotely". I've been down this road during lockdowns. I helped several people use OBS, Voicemeeter and Cantabile to be able to give keyboard lessons remotely using Zoom. That was a long finicky process of trial and error that ultimately was successful for online keyboard lessons. Does anyone know a simpler way to route the Cakewalk ASIO audio over the internet to a remote computer? I tried installing just VB Cable which worked if we switched to MME but it sounded very distorted. Thanks in advance for any advice on this.

I just worked on a video with a singer. The video was shot with the band playing live. We decided to redo the lead vocals and the singer wanted to watch the video while recording. Am I correct that the beginning of the video can't be trimmed or moved back in time? We ended up adding a gap to the beginning of the video and reimporting it so we could move the multi-tracks ahead to sync it up. Is this the only way to accomplish that if the beginning of the audio track is further forward in time than the beginning of the video? Using default video engine on Windows 10 22H2 with latest CbB Cakewalk Thanks in advance for any advice on this.

I did a project in V10 last night where I imported 20 tracks recorded on our band's Soundcraft Ui24R. I used the new (introduced in 9.2) Grid Mode to slide the beat/bar lines onto the kick drum transients to line up the tempo map with the actual performance. It was a breeze and you can do it while the music is playing. I used the new UI "flat" buttons to add even more clarity on my $220 4K Vizio 40" TV I'm using as a display. It did crash on me once when I was adjusting the colors of the grid lines but otherwise performance of the DAW was very good.

I did a support request on the Harrison website and got an email back from Nathan a few hours later

I didn't get an upgrade email but Nathan at Harrison got me setup with the $99 for Pro deal - I had been eyeing some of the XT plugins, so this turns out to be a very good deal for me also.

I didn't get an update offer email - just created a support ticket

I've been working a lot in 9.2.105 and it's been solid. I have a 4K screen so v9 was a good upgrade for screen clarity. I never used the cue features introduced in V8 but upgraded because some forum members mentioned it fixed some issues I had run into. I'm getting a little bit of version upgrade fatigue and there is nothing I'm looking for that the product doesn't already do well. I'm happy to support development by keeping current since V6. I like that you can keep using the version you own and upgrade when ready. One thing I love about 32C is I can import 20 tracks from our band's live takes (Soundcraft Ui24R) and quickly get a good sounding mix out to the band. There's something about the DAW that glues the tracks together in a nice way. For more detailed/finished mixes we use Cakewalk.

Thanks for link - I've been listening to Gunship, Kavinsky, FM-84 and Timecop1983 - figured I might as well get some pre-configured drums for that.

I used the de-reverb to clean up a presentation recorded in a large living room. It worked really well.

Would like to see those pledges from Bandlab 😀

I concurrently use Reaper, Mixbus 32C and Cakewalk. Mixbus 32C isn't as good for recording/editing midi tracks (my keyboards and drums) but is the most fun to mixdown on. I think Cakewalk is easier for less technical users to lay down tracks and mix on. Reaper is the swiss army knife - there's a script/add-on for every need.

Hi John, Actually that checkbox causes WIndows Sound subsystem to route the sound to the speakers even though ASIO is already handling sound for Windows. So, you get this signal, and it's late because it's not your excellent ASIO low latency audio, so it sounds like an echo, and it only comes out the left channel because the Axe I/O guitar input is Windows channel 1 (Left).

I sent the link for that page to someone I'm working with a request he buy it for the studio 🤣

The Axe I/O Solo (and standard model) have a Monitor Knob - all the way left is all direct monitor - all the way right is all DAW monitor. I agree about just listening to the instrument direct while playing along with the recorded tracks.

I finally figured it out - I read Sweetwater's advice page on the Axe I/O. They didn't have the below steps in their guide but I found the solution just poking around in the tabs after choosing "Additional Properties" for the Input in Windows. Windows - Open Sound Settings. Click on Device Properties under the Input section. Click Additional Properties The old Windows Sound properties box pops up Choose the Input Tab Uncheck "Listen to Device"

Here is the setup: Cakewalk latest version Bass plugged into Channel 1 on Axe I/O Axe I/O Monitor knob rolled all the right to DAW Axe I/O Headphone volume at 12 noon In the Axe I/O interface Control Panel I have Direct Monitor set to Mono. I always hear the bass in the left channel even when I pan the input in Cakewalk hard right. I've toggled the interleave button to Stereo on both input track and Bus (tried toggling mono but didn't help) No matter what I do I hear the bass in the left channel I think its an issue where the Axe I/O is passing the Direct Out left channel all the time even when the Monitor knob is all the right to full DAW sound. Mentioning here in case someone says something like "you need to use a mono track for the bass" or some other setting I haven't seen yet. Thanks in advance for any input on this

I sometimes do IT work in the evening for a local church where the pipers practice ensemble. I love bagpipes but have to leave - it's deafening.

We've been evaluating large diaphragm condenser mics. So far the Neuman U87ai and the JZ BH1. I would describe the BH1 as a very clear sounding U87ai. The vocalist in our band prefers the U87ai as it is a little less crisp so perhaps the description should be "warmer". I prefer the BH1 but I'm not singing 😀.
