I love the message in this song. It is awesome what time does to us, both physically and mentally. This will be the 50th anniversary of my high school graduation and looking back, I can't believe that almost an entire lifetime has gone by.
The music is superb and your video work brings back memories of my own youth.

Unusual and pleasing. I especially love the vocal effect thing and the percussion.

Cool! You've given us an audio-visual tour of your music creation system. The heart character is very entertaining. How creative!

You really threw my ears for a loop about midpoint. I seriously thought that chime-guitar thing was something going on in my house! You have a unique style there that is both interesting and lovely at the same time. Thanks for sharing this.

The You Lean meter is very light load and I have it on hundreds of projects I export. I never turn it off. It is not likely the cause of an export issue or thousands of people would report it.
I think the best solution is to capture that crash dump an have some one look at it If it is Trillion I will be listed as a cause of the crash.
If your SSD drive is a Samsung they have a diagnostic tool. I thought my drive was needing replacement and I ordered a new one in the box was the info about the tool app so I installed it and it showed both my Samsung drives as being 100 % healthy.
https://semiconductor.samsung.com/consumer-storage/magician/Honestly I don't know what the make of the SDD is on my system. Back in 2021 I special ordered a Dell desktop PC for dedicated music production. It's a certain type of SDD. I don't remember what they call them but the drive is about the size of a stick of chewing gum.

What about a thumb drive?
Create a simple project and save to the thumb drive. Make a few edits; will it save normally? Add Trilian, will it save normally?
OS, Samples, and projects are all on one drive?
Not entirely. When I'm creating a song everything is on the SDD. After the project is completed and I'm satisfied with the mix I do a double backup to a Seagate external HDD and a cloud storage service I rent. I have run completed projects off of the Seagate successfully but extensive work I always do on the internal SDD. But to directly answer your question, yes all the elements for creation are on the same drive.

What happens if you move the project to a different drive?
I would want to be sure that my audio drive isn’t having issues.
Just a thought…

@DeeringAmps Using another drive is not an option for me, but the one I'm using is an SSD.

Thanks, @John Vere, & @mark skinner.
I started a support ticket with Spectrasonics who asked me to send a screen shot of the diagnostics screen. Should be hearing from them shortly.
Could it also be a Windows 10 issue? 🤨

I've been taking notice of late that when I go to save something in CbB using the Save in the Edit menu it hangs for a few seconds and just closes the program without saving anything. I've just lost a half hours work because of this. Any ideas as to what all of a sudden is causing this behavior? I'm using Trilian Bass module when this is happening. Switching to ctrl+S seems to work OK......for now.
Thanks

Sol;
I have this problem too. I just do as Tom suggested and it seems to work for me. Hopefully Toontrack will address this soon. I have brought this to their attention.

I've been on this planet almost 68 years and I'm still appalled by some of the depravity of the human race and how horrible we can treat each other.
Great acoustic guitar sound.

Yes smooth. The flute sounds great, nice melodies and harmonies. Very pleasant mood with some changes now and then. Very nice. Never forget when my rock loving son first heard me play a Peter Tosh song and it had bird sounds in it, he was amused.
@treeshaThanks so much for listening, treesha!

This is a beautiful, haunting piece which reflects your sophistication as a songwriter and arranger. Lovely flutes! I'm checking them out, thanks.
@Lynn WilsonThanks so much, Lynn. I can imagine you getting quite a bit of use from SA samples. I think you'd like them!

Hi John
Flute sounds excellent and a very enjoyable song - on the mix i just thought the shakers sounded a little to far forward, apart from that all good.
Cool stuff
Nigel
@Bajan Blue Thanks for the feedback, Nigel. I'll investigate the shaker.

Well done John, the background bird ambience and the flutes work most effectively . . . yes, most amazing sampled flute sounds I've heard, interesting blend of technology and nature you've accomplished here !
Thanks @noynekker for listening and commenting.

The flute stands out really well, one of the better sampled instruments I've heard. Very nice melody on top of a jazzy score.
Bonus:
The birder that I am had to ID the bird in the picture. It's an Eastern Yellow Robin that lives in Australia.-Bjorn
Thanks @bjornpdx! Actually, I made a slideshow video for this song, but now that I've "redone" the music I'm going to have to update it before I put it back up on YT. In the video I picture and identify several birds. So, since you're a "birder" I'll try to remember to PM you when I re post it back to YT.😉

It's a great song. Agree that the vocal effects get in the way of being able to understand what you're singing and I'd love to understand more of it. I did understand a few lines ("Did I break wind?" is hilarious 🤣).
Also, the lead guitar is a bit too loud. I'd pull it back just a bit. Otherwise, great! Being a senior citizen myself at almost 68 I can appreciate where this is going.

Never heard you sing before. You have a great voice. I think everything in your plans for the orchestration worked out great.
Wondering what you're using for the strings.

Very enjoyable and relaxing. The sounds are all well balanced and mixed. I can hear everything.

Intermittent Save Problem
in Cakewalk by BandLab
Posted
OK. I did these things. At first I didn't see all of the files listed in the drill down until I showed the hidden items. Then there was Roaming between appdata and Cakewalk, but I filled in those gaps myself. 😉
There are 9 Cakewalk.exe*******.dmp files but none of them say "Crash" in them. Are they all crash dumps? There are 2 that are time stamped for 5/24/23 and that's what day these crashes happened last but I don't remember what time they happened. There are also several .dmp file that are time stamped from various other days and times (some going back to last March and September) and I don't recall any problem happening before 5/24/23.
Secondly, I opened the Audio Configuration file. There wasn't any ExceptionHandlingSeverity so before I go on with your instructions I want to be very clear about what I'm doing. I've never been this deep into the program and I don't want to screw anything up. So, I see an Edit Configuration File tab on the upper left. When I click it it opens a Word Pad document. Is this where I'd add the ExceptionHandlingSeverity? If so, how would I set the value? Are you saying that doing this would cause it to warn me before a crash happens?
Thanks so much. I appreciate your help intensely.
😀John B
