As much as I would like to recommend Davinci Resolve, it runs like a dog on my Dell latitude 7490 (i7, 16gb ram, 500gb SSD). Premier Pro (the money hog that it is) runs pretty snapy

The 1030 series is about 3 years old, you can get cards with passive cooling such as https://www.ebuyer.com/791771-msi-gt-1030-2gb-passive-lp-oc-graphics-card-gt-1030-2gh-lp-oc?gclid=Cj0KCQiA962BBhCzARIsAIpWEL0XX23qudlkA5JOIWKTU2SuMKoWq_suuiPTXOIh3Yz5zmDMvzL1MNUaAijPEALw_wcB. The prices seem to have gone up a bit recently though, but haven't all graphic cards

The English edition is now available https://www.falkemedia-shop.de/sound/beat-english/

You can also get it via PayPal here - https://www.falkemedia-shop.de/sound/beat-english/ (although this months edition has not been translated to English yet)

Speaking as a total amateur who makes music (if you can call it that) just for fun all I can say is I think CbB is the best free software I have ever used. It's *%$&@#! fantasic!!!

Epic games have been giving away a free game every Thursday for the last few years, but STAR WARS™ Battlefront™ II, along with GTA V has probably been the best so far

+1 for disabling Intel Speedsteep

Try the WASAPI modes available. I have an ancient laptop that performs pretty well in WASAPI exclusive or shared mode

You could try handbrake - https://handbrake.fr/. Its free, Open Source and is pretty good at converting video footage from one format to another

For a long time I used the on board sound card with headphones. I didn't really see the point in buying a external audio interface as I was only using VST instruments. Then I got a Behringer UMC204HD as it was going cheap on Amazon and the difference when listening through headphones is like tasting the difference between dishwater and orange juice!!! Definitely worth it

Since the upgrade I get the crackling in wasapi shared mode, but switching to wasapi exclusive fixes it

I have see this problem and the only way I could get Cakewalk to export properly again was to restart it

All the plugins I have work, and behave just as the do on my Dell that is also running windows 10

I have cakewalk running on a Windows 10 boot camp partition, mac pro 2010. All is well

Although it looks a driver display problem, I don't think it is. This problem doesn't appear anywhere else in Cakewalk (or Windows). I have removed the card and used the on board display chipset (Intel HD 4600) and the problem is still there. I even used the windows 8.1 Radeon HD 8490 driver which installs fine and runs everything fine except the ACT window. Am I doomed to a life without sliders and knobs!!!

I agree, that is exactly what it looks like, but I have not had an issue like this with any other application. I am using a Radeon HD 8490 with up to date drivers, Windows 10 1903

I have a Nektar Impact LX49+ which I am trying to set up as a control surface. The drivers are installed and Cakewalk can see it. The transport controls work and the pots and sliders move random objects in the plugins. The trouble is when I actually try and map the controls using ACT I get the following window pop up which does not let me select anything . Reinstalling the LX49 drivers and Cakewalk has not fixed it Any ideas?

In the mid to late 80’s North America had cheesy generic rock/pop. In the UK we had Stock, Aitken and Waterman. I think the UK got by far the worse deal

The first thing that came to my mind when I read the topic heading was this

And let's not forget that the most famous Irishman in history was actually Welsh
