I don't know what "select - by filter" means. I tried right clicking and dragging on the sustain info(I'm guessing this is what u call the "events"?) in the controller pane but it doesn't let me highlight it. I also don't know how to assign/reassign events to diff midi tracks. I appreciate the help but I'm afraid you'll have to dumb it down some more for me too navigate thru it. Thanks!

Hi, for my piano vst I'm showing 3 sustain pedals in the Controller Pane. I only need one. I don't know how to delete the other two. When I click the little "-" symbol to the left of CC: 64, it disappears but when I save and reopen the project all 3 sustain pedals are back. How do I permanently delete them? Thanks!

Oh, I didn't know it was being redesigned. And yes, I'm on my mobile. Thanks

Hi, when I clicked on the Cakewalk forum today I noticed the bell icon was gone. I don't even see where to access my account. Any tips?

Australia, wow. Well I def appreciate the help my friend. Cheers from south Louisiana and good luck with the new album ✌️

Thanks Tim, it works perfect! Btw, I'm starting to think ur a vampire like me(Up all night). ...Unless ur in China. In which case, have a great evening 😉

Hi guys. I know how to move a section of a track to another track by pressing control and dragging the waveform down or up to the other track. Using the control key keeps it in precise time. But how do I COPY a section of a track to another track and keep it in precise time with the song? (I do know how to copy and paste to another track but it's never in time with the original track. I have to zoom in and adjust the timing which is a big pain of course). Thanks!

Great to know man. Well, since I really just use TTS-1 for one piano sound, I think it may be time for me to get a stand alone piano vst. Thanks a lot Tim!

I think u may have something Tim. After all, the TTS-1 was the first thing I started tracking the project with. I still been editing the midi on it but I'll be freezing that track soon. In the meantime, I'll just restart the project when I make those type of edits. Btw Tim, does the ocassional crash like that pose any risk to my project file or to my system?

Hi Tim. I have a lot of effects. Like TTS-1, VX64, Sonitus delays, etc. But it did this even when I only had a few tracks with little effects. I just got it to crash again then I looked in the Events Viewer and it showed the Cakewalk crash error. However, all the info and code stuff is over my head. I just read it could be driver related(?). I def hear a click/pop when it crashes. I had the buffer set very fast when it just crashed. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Hi guys. Whenever I duplicate a track then press play, the project crashes. So instead, I have to save it and reopen the project then press play. The same thing happens with certain other procedures, like when I open a bundle as a project. I have to immediately save & restart it. If not, it crashes. Is this normal?

1972, very cool. I'm sure you'll get it up & running again. I like the gain mod & v30 too. (I get the feeling that amp is a screamer)

Awesome John. Please comment back on ur experience with it. Also, I feel u on the amp tech thing. All 3 of my local music instrument stores are now shut down and the amp techs they worked with don't do repairs anymore. They seem to be somewhat of a dying breed. Btw, what year is ur Princeton John?

Ah, my bad. I never knew how the MP1's circuitry worked. I just knew they sounded amazing(and that was thru an old Peavey solid state PA). That said, I def agree with ur earlier post that the sound is all that matters. I still own a couple nice sounding tube amps but I've been using a cheap JOYO American Sound pedal(Tech 21 Blonde rip off) to record. It sounds as good as any Fender tube amp I've ever played. If it sounds good to me, I careless about name brand, tech specs, tube type, etc. Cheers!

Well, I've watched many tube comparison vids on YouTube and IMO, there is subtle differences but I agree that it's way overblown (much like tone woods). In a blind test, I doubt many people could rate tubes by their price point.

Agreed. Btw, I'm a huge EJ fan. And although Ive never owned a Tube Driver, I used to own 2 ADA MP1's and they sounded outstanding. No one could ever convince me that the tubes did nothing in there. It's still the best sound Ive ever had at really low volume... Full of harmonics & sustain. Like the Tube Driver, the MP1 has produced some killer sounding tracks.

First, I'm very jealous of ur Skylark John. Those amps sound amazing. Second, My dad told me I could have his tube tester when he died but my brother, thinking it was just some "mad scientist" gadget, threw it in the garbage. (That one still hurts 🥺) But yeah, although the Tube MP gets very mixed reviews, a lot of home studio guys swear by it , esp for tracking bass. I hope u do try it again. I'd be curious to know how it works out for u.

Thanks my friend. Good to learn about the high end roll off thing too. Since my DI is a super cheap passive one, I'm sure there's plenty of that going on. The good news however is that I'm a stellar musician. So no amount of sound degradation can mask my immense talent. 💪

Thanks John. I was actually running it like u said... with input set high & output set low and it wasn't clipping my interface and sounded nice. I think you & Tim are right that I'm prob fine without the DI. I also didn't realize that a DI box could degrade the sound. I'll just keep using it like it is. If my interface ever dies, I'll make sure the next one is designed to accept line levels. Thanks for the wisdom guys.

Thanks bud. Yeah I've heard of voltage multipliers. I also know there's a lot of "tube" pedals where the tube does basically nothing. Snake oil aside, I find the ART smooths out the high end and fattens things up. And if I'm delusional... I'm okay with that too 🙃

Thanks Tim. That makes sense. Presonus is prob just wanting users to play it extra safe. I've broke that 'no line signal' rule myself a few times and the interface still works fine. So it's def not super delicate. Cheers!

Hey guys, this is what my Audiobox usb96 owners manual says... "NOTE: Active instruments are those that have an internal preamp or a line level output. Active instruments should be plugged into a line input rather than into an instrument input. Plugging a line level source into the instrument inputs on the front of the Audiobox USB not only risk damage to these inputs but also results in a very loud and often distorted audio signal. In other words, don't plug a line level source into the combo jacks of channel 1 or 2." I can attest that line signals are super loud thru my interface. That's why I bought a DI box. My interface is an older version though, maybe they've upgraded the inputs to now accept line level. But it's all good guys. I'll just try it into the DI then A/B it with & without the Tube MP. Again, if it sounds just as good without it I'll nix the Tube MP altogether. Thanks for help guys!

Thanks John, good to hear from u. Well, call it placebo effect but I think it sounds pretty smooth. Btw, I have been running it like u said... straight to interface with an unbalanced cable and it's worked fine. I just wanted to make sure I was getting the optimal gain levels and not damaging my interface However, I will do some A/B'ing with & without the Tube MP. If it sounds as good or better without it, I'll be happy to chunk it in the closet. Heck, one less thing to hook up. Cheers!

https://support.presonus.com/hc/en-us/articles/210044713-AudioBox-Series-Connecting-line-level-audio-source Sorry to doubt u Byron but everything I've read on the usb96 says it's not designed for line level. Am I missing something?

Hi guys. Im wanting to run my ART Tube MP mic pre into my interface. However, I just found out I'm not supposed to run a mic pre into the interface's mic pre. My interface (Audiobox usb96) also doesn't accept line level. Couldn't I just use my DI box after the ART mic pre to lower the signal back down again, then into the interface's XLR input? Thanks!
