In the Triton Extreme vst, the GM banks are only available in the Program mode, not in the Combi mode.  There is only one channel available in the Program mode, unlike TTS-1 and Sound Canvas where there are multiple channels.

In combi mode the browser is browsing for combis. In combi mode go to the left side of the UI and select a program, then select the downward facing triangle, then select Load Program and that gives you the program browser. Select GM from the top of the browser.

??     Would I have to go into clip properties ?

I double click the clip so it opens up. Normally the problem is obvious, at least when I've run into a problem.

It analyzed the loop wrong. Number of beats or BPM or something. Go in and set those values manually.

I haven't used the FCB, but I do use Roland's FC-300 and Yamaha's MFC-10.  Those have 5 pin midi connectors, so you need some type of midi IF.

So I've brought up the Lord song edit..... having trouble with playback.... I can hear my guitar plugged in the interface but I can't playback anything. HElp!!!

What audio interface are you using? They often have a monitor function that allows you to monitor the input. Make sure that is turned off or set to playback.

I got the Dumble, Trainwreck, and 64 Tuxedo Prince.

Tonex SE

3 x Tone Junkie captures for Tonex SE.

Not BF deals, but I picked up a Kingsley Page DS last month, I use it inside the fx loop of an amp head based on a 5A3 circuit as an overdrive channel and I also got a Two notes Torpedo Captor 8 so, I wasn't planning on spending much this year.

It says one day only, but it worked for me today. I went for the ToneX SE sale so, I picked up some of TJ's captures. Use code BF80. He has Kemper, Helix, and others as well ...

Any pedal should be fine going into the instrument input. If you have a pedal with a buffer (many boss pedals) you can try any input. As an example, the boss DD-8 has a 1 meg ohm input and 1k ohm output. Boss pedals are normally bypass buffered, so you don't need to have the fx engaged to get the buffer. Turn the gain down if you use an input other than the instrument.

You can check the specs for boss pedals here -

I normally use them in front of an amp, preamp or modeler or in the fx loop before recording. After I've recorded, I normally use digital fx.

And your next question is? I looked at the manual and it says -

USB-C Port ..., USB audio stream, ...

and under operation it does discuss recording. The question is: are NUX ASIO drivers any good? Let us know if you try it.

MIDI is not audio. ASIO is audio, not MIDI. Look Under Preferences, Audio, Devices. See Glenn's post above.

I have a problem with latency when I have effects on the master bus. When I turn off all effects I can play and record normally without delay.  And again if I turn effects on, the problem still there. Its only while recording. I have pretty powerfull computer with lots of memory, I install the latest ASIO drivers from my audio inteface's site and nothing. Same thing happen when I record vocals. Is this I do something wrong, or I don't do what I suppose to do, ot this is normal?

P.S. It happen only when I have effects on the master bus. If I add effects on the track-everything works normally

Any help will be appreciated

Mastering FX may be linear phase and that requires a look ahead buffer that can cause delays. Check your mastering FX and see if any are linear phase, if so, the delay is expected. You normally don't use linear phase FX when recording. Normally, mastering is done after mixing ...

It's best to put feature requests in the Feedback Loop ...

i use the AD2 Jazz Brushes.

Yeah, I use the AD2 jazz brushes as well.

I suspect you have it sync'd. When you select play AD2 starts to play the selected pattern.

I'm sure there are a number of ways to do this. One way is to select the track, then select the time on the timeline, then do a track - delete and select the options you want.

if you use a high quality usb key (don't skimp on this) to host your Waves licenses, you can readily switch between machines, just not be able to run both at the same time. 

I'm aware of that, but it's easier not to have to worry about a dongle and I don't feel like I'm missing anything.

I have a DAW and laptop and CbB and Live 11 and most plugins installed on both. Most plugins allow 2 installs, they just can't be run simultaneously. I only have a few wave plugins (since I need to buy 2 copies).

Yeah. You can do Frippertronics type things with Boz Digital Labs Imperial Delay, but if you want it sync'd you have to calculate the time. It goes up to 10 seconds. For longer delay times Melda has Superlooper - I like that as well. Another is Expert Sleepers Augustus Loop.

Does your IF have direct monitor? If so, make sure it is off.

So last night cakewalk didn't crash for the first time in a while, which I'm chalking up to using USB 2.0 instead of 3.0.  Possibly the MOTU drivers just weren't tested in that scenario, or maybe my specific computer's USB 3.0 hardware has some problem.

Glad to hear it. I first tried a usb 3 port and when that was flakey, I tried a usb 2.0 and that worked for me - that's why I suggested it. I just do home recording, so I power my PCs down overnight. USB 3 is supposed to be backward compatible, I'm not sure what the problem was with my USB 3.0 port.

I liked the article. As a guitarist I tend to think of recording, which is what I do, but I've been playing a bit with orchestration and after reading Jerry's article I see MIDI orchestration more like painting.

I've had it about 2 months.  I should have returned it in 30 days but I hadn't been writing music for a couple of years so I took me a while to see a pattern to the crashes.  Ironically I got windows 11 because it is supposed to make better use of the i9-12900K's many cores , but I do have suspicions that this tech could be a problem for MOTU and/or cakewalk.

Have you tried different usb ports? My M4 didn't like the first usb port I tried. If you have some usb 2.0 ports try those. I switched to a different one and it's been fine since. Another thing to check is the power settings and make sure that selective suspend is disabled on the usb port you're using. Also disable usb power management. I'd try trouble shooting before replacing it, I think it's a nice IF for the price.

Is the MOTU new? I've been using a MOTU 4x4 without any problems for years. My DAW is Win10 though.
