Great - thanks so much. I never heard of that before.

I get this message whan I use the export module. What does it mean? Is there something I need to do? thanks.

This just happened suddenly. It starts to load and then everything shuts down as if I hadn't even started up cbb. I can load it from the menu however. Is there a way to just delete it from the start screen? Or to fix it? Thank you.

Thanks for making the effort! I think that's above my pay grade😁. I'm just trying to get a decent mix.

Another question, I have the Youlean meter as the very last plug on my master bus but that comes before the master bus fader. So it won't reflect raising or lowering the master bus gain? Am I missing something?

Here's what I figured out thanks to all of your input, keep CBB routed to the audio interface. I then export an MP3, turn off the interface and just enable the laptop speakers and get a good Lo-Fi comparison. Before I was having to send the mp3 over to my tablet but that sounds about the same as the laptop speakers, i.e tinny which is what I want for the Lo-Fi comparison. Thank you to everyone I love this group.

Thank you!

Sorry if this is a basic computer question but I just realized I could use my built-in laptop computer speakers for a Lo-Fi comparison on the final mix, but I can't figure out how to enable both interface and Lo-Fi and be able to switch between the two without going into settings each time. I'm on Windows 10 and my interface is a focusrite Scarlett i18 8. It looks like in Windows settings I either have to choose one or the other for the output. Am I missing something obvious? Thanks!

That's what I thought, thanks but when I export to MP3, the MP3 says untitled?

Thank you!!

I've tried both the export module & file/export but I have to type in the project name each time. Isn't there a way it automatically names the export with the same name as the project? thanks

Thanks! I thought about waiting until Insight goes on sale, mainly for the inter plug communication, but i read on another site that luffs is mainly for the final master buss & not for individual channel gain staging? So I just continue with rms & peek db for that?

I'm trying to switch over to luffs for metering. It doesn't look like CbB shows luffs. I'm trying Youlean's meter. Just curious what other people are doing for gain staging & leaving headroom for mastering? Thanks.

Thanks I think I got it. It looks like i have to do the edit on the take lane, if there is one, not the main track. i'm soo behind in take lanes.

I'm trying to salvage an old project & there's a linear curve on a take lane (I think) I want to delete. i'm way behind in take lanes as they have changed so much since Sonar X1. thanks

Wow, thanks. I'm just trying to get clarity in a spoken vocal w a background soundtrack.

Is it possible or even useful to do both together on the same track? Thanks.

Of course, it never even occurred to me to copy the track. Thank you!

I drew one curve by hand but I want to see if I can get a better result riding the fader. Is there a way to do that without deleting the first automation curve? Thanks

Sounds like you're referring to Mike in creative sauce 😃 he seems like a genuine good guy so I respect his opinions. As a long time Cakewalk user there's no way I'm going to change daws even if I wanted to because of the learning curve with the new daw and also as far as I know I would have to export every single track of every project and that's out of the question. My limited experience with other daws is that they each have their strong and weak points, maybe AI makes a difference now but I'm starting to think izotopes AI for example, isn't getting me any better results than I could do by hand. And I like izotope products. One more thing, I do some midi work in traction waveform and I find that to be a pretty cool daw, maybe not so much for audio but pretty nice for being free. The interesting thing is it's all in one view, no separate console and track views.

Possibly Izotope RX

all good advice, I got it - thank you!!

Okay thank you both, I'm away from my computer now but will check those out when I boot up again.

The default nudge settings or shortcuts aren't working for me, maybe user error. Is there a best or most efficient way to use nudge or to set these up? Thanks!

Thanks for yr help! That makes it more clear.
