Yeah, warm, sultry horns. 

Love the bass playing and the tone of the bass the most.

David Gilmour would approve. Very tasty licks, yum!

A harmonically complex tune, I enjoy hearing stuff like this. I would enjoy playing some of those chord progressions on a guitar to hear how they would sound.

In the past, artists might speed up the whole recorded song a few bpms, of course, thus having everything raise in pitch. Such as to build excitement, or maybe even fit on the record... This was often done just with vocals - Bruce Springsteen even, on Hungry Heart; Paul McCartney would do this.

I appreciate you're probably not looking for this, well, unless you're working for the Chipmunks... but going up 2-3 bpms overall this way may be okay or fun to try.

I actually started a new Playlist  For both Sonar and Next a while ago but had to take down the videos as requested because they didn’t want anything happening outside the beta testing. 
I put this first one out a few day ago just to show people how to get it. There’s actually nothing much else to say because nothing really changed. 

 

Awesome. I am a subscriber. I appreciate your efforts.

Not a bad idea for him to get "first to market" with the new channel for the new software. That does make this video here more like a promotion that could have been a reel or short. Still, I look forward to watching. I had drifted from him when the channel was going in different directions.

Channeling Leonard Cohen for sure. Cool.

Good news! And we can all relate to your frustration. Being methodical like you were, about troubleshooting, pays dividends.

Long shots, but:

Using a gate or some sort of ducking by parallel... could that silence or eliminate the notes or portions you don't want?

Or, make a pattern with volume automation, effectively muting every second note, copy-paste down the track?

Thank you again, @John Vere. I think we share being Canadians. I am in Northern BC where we are into the -30s celcius right now. Stay warm!

I'm impatient too, but ah well, at least they are just working behind the scenes and I don't have to endure a crowdfunding campaign...

A difference this time is the notification for me has a deadline, in this case, 13 days, "before time runs out"!

Happy New Year -- should be a really neat year, with NEXT etc. Let's see!

Yes - Merry Christmas, everyone!

Semi-related and you probably know, but if you are logging dates and keys of songs etc there is also the Notes section in the Browser.

That's cool, thanks! Sometimes I want to have the track view run across my two monitors.

Ability to Increase the font size, even just a little?

I do have two large monitors, but still, that only helps a wee bit... I know I can go into Windows display settings and make everything bigger - but that brings other issues.

This was in my notes (below) but if you haven't already, consider using Markers and/or the Arranger track to note where sections are.

- Ctrl+A to Select All

- Clip Properties in Track Inspector, expand Audiosnap.

- Check Enable.

- Set Follow Options to 'Autostretch'

- Click to check the Follow Proj Tempo box.

It took me more than a few years to stop being sheepish and obfusactory, when the "So, what DAW do you use?" conversation arose. Especially since, the most common reply back to me was invariably, "Cakewalk, what's that?" But soldiering on, gaining, expressing confidence, I found that curious folk will be intrigued. Perhaps, keep letting people know - they will catch on or it's their loss!

Just change the tempo if your tracks are all midi. Use the tempo view for where you want the changes.

For audio tracks, I think you turn on audio snap for all audio clips, then enable it so the clip follows the project.  Then change tempo.  Then bounce the clips. But honestly, I think the answer is to re-record. 

I know that he uses some fast delays, and different in milliseconds on the left and right - so a delay plugin could help, to start. Then somehow the delays have a pitch bend. I'm not sure about doing that but a chorus plugin might work.

Edit > Preferences > Colors > Search: markers > Choose Color

Or use the Arranger Track for different colors for each section you can set.

It was a quick and easy install and activation on my end. Seems to be working same as always.

Such an interesting discussion from everyone. My takeaway is how much so many people care about this product. I know I do...
