By my reading, "prunes" keeps the chain. Here's my rationale: pwalpwal had extended the chain from explosion/exploding with dukes of stratosphear - my love explodes and then with gene chandler - -duke of earl. pwalpwal changed the association with a different gene-- gene clark - no other I then did an intentional pivot on no (from no other) to Zappa's MOI song Oh No which doubles as a reaction to pwalpwal's missing the opportunity to use a Zappa (MOI) tune which I added: Duke of Prunes. So, you continued the run with Prunes. 😉

Since I am a fan of delays, I just had to give this a quick try. Some preliminary observations/opinions. Despite the Paypal "Buy now, Pay later" notice The download was instant. It didn't need an account or an e-mail link. It didn't need to be activated. It does indeed seem to be free. About the physical modeling (spiraling delay) I needed headphone. It does sound like much more is going on than simple ping-pong delay. Other The UI is simple, but functional. (You won't need a manual!) Malware Bytes and Windows Defender detected no issues (zip and unzipped). I did a simple test of the vst3 in Voltage Modular. (I did not rescan CbB yet.) Controllable Parameters are: Rotation Speed, Decay, Time, Beats, Time Mode, Stereo Amount, FIlter Frequency, Filter Width, Dry/Wet, Bypass. Most of the parameters show changes in the Plug-in's UI.

You missed an opportunity to include "Duke of Prunes" in your song association chain. 😛

JMO: Not a crime. As for Mixcraft, JMO there is no comparison with SONAR/Cakewalk. Personally, I have no problems with people choosing one DAW over another. If you read my posts, you should see that I have spoken out in favor of people making personal choices of DAWs based on their own personal needs. But pre-emptive venting about the price before you even know what the price will be is wrong on so many levels. IMO you should have waited until the price was announced and then complained, whined, ranted, threatened to stop using Cakewalk/SONAR/Sonar. That's the proper way to belly-ache around here. 😛

From everything I've read we will have more than enough time to make an informed decision. Setting a personal price point is admirable. I do that all the time based on my financial circumstances.

Thanks for the confirmation! Some of my Roland Sound modules also have sets of SC sounds (M-GS64 and the RA30) as well as the Edirol VSC IIRC (the one that came bundled with Cakewalk/SONAR back in the day).

I think you'll find that to be more true for people who have been using Cakewalk for a very long time. I could be wrong, but I don't think it's an old v. new, either-or thing. Personally, I like having multiple methods. Each has advantages and each has disadvantages. Sometimes one method fits the current workflow; sometimes a different method fits better. Having said that, it might be that veteran users know multiple methods and new users only know one. JMO: Making it into an "old, outdated" v. a "new and improved" bipolar debate seems bogus to me.

I suspect they are in the process of updating the infrastructure. I ran into a similar issue with regard to the online documentation and reported it.** I don't have any pressing needs, so I am planning to wait until the infrastructure gets sorted out. If you have an urgent need, you can contact support. **Here's the reply I received. I hope this information helps.

Yep I agree.

I don't know, but I found some more info. Roland's Sound Canvas VA sound canvas VA versus TTS1 - any opinions? thread on another forum Maybe some people here know how the TTS-1 samples compare with the Sound Canvas samples. I will defer to others who know more of the inside scoop on the TTS-1 samples.

I don't know for sure. Maybe it's one of the samples from the Sound Canvas line of products. Roland should know. Update: I just did a Google search for "Sound Canvas Samples." If my guess is correct, perhaps there are some independent sfz libraries that include samples of the SC piano sample.

My bad for responding to the rant.

You are right. I did quote myself: Very perceptive of you.

Please re-read this ^^^^^ in conjunction with the recent discussion. To me it seems intended as a display of cleverness and purports to be a defense against any possible accusation of being bashy: Now, that's kinda bash-y. 😄 but if you were to do an unbiased textual analysis, I expect the rant would be shown for what it is: an extension of "bashery" as if to say, "You want to accuse me of bashing, well here: read this. So there!!!!!!!" In short, (1) there was a warning in regard to bashing, (2) the ante was upped with a rant, (3) I called the rant into question without resorting to insults,** (4) the ante was upped by with an intended insult, etc. and here we are. **Note: "WTF" was a statement of disagreement, not an insult.

But I am so much enjoying giving the BS back! 😆

Let's add, "Please stop inflicting your insults, one-up-manship games, etc. on others."

"Giving crap back to those who try to crap on you might not be "kind," but (1) those that dish it out can surely take it, (2) that's the only thing some people understand, (3) speak truth to insults, innuendos, etc." --Me 😜

"Speak truth to insults." --Me 😛

Actually, it was the truth. I thought of telling you to take your meds for your rant. But I thought that would be mean-spirited, rude, and insulting. Then when you brought up meds, I wanted you to know that that's what I thought when I read your rant. I do not play games like you do. I do not trade insults for the fun of it as you do. I speak the truth. "That's the best you can do?" and "kiddies now . . . . " is part of a typical one-up-manship mindset,

That was question to YOU!!!!!

If they honor it for those who paid Gibson, but not for those of us who were long-time paid up-graders since long before Gibson's ownership, I will go into a tirade, scream foul play, vow never to use CbB ever again, will whine and complain anywhere I can, etc.!!

WTF? I really hate it when people rant just to say, "I'm done with Cakewalk." I never understood why people don't just leave. It's been said that misery loves company, but honestly get on with your life and stop trying to bludgeon others. You have a choice to use any software or to not use it. It's really that simple. As for the the Lifetime Updates Gibson offered, I distinctly remember asking myself, "Who's lifetime?" based on all the "End of Life" notifications I had received for various products I had purchased. I don't feel Bandlad owes people anything more over the Gibson "money grab." Bandlab has generously provided free updates with some amazing new features and many improvements and bug fixes for five years. Please just move on. Stop inflicting your misery on others. JMO: People who plan their future so they can do revenge should find better things to do with their lives.
