There was an update to EZBass  since i last posted - the VST3 version now works as expected, as does the VST2, on my machine.

Cakewalk crashes when you add too many vsts...nothing you can do...you just have to go over the parts you lost.Hey as least you will get plenty of practice on your guitar

So how many do you call « too many » ?

Even if Cakewalk crashes, the recorded audio will still be on your HDD.

Make sure the input within the Kontact gui is set to omni. Gets me everytime.

As a principle i always re-installed  my sound card drivers after a major update in W10.. I did this after upgrading to W11 and no issues.

J

Not a fan of exporting, i prefer bouncing. 

i’ve never had an issue bouncing tracks (including midi - ezdrummer)  and occasionally with ez bass.

i bounce all to a stereo track. Works for me.

John, you might want to consider a Ryzen cpu and a B550 mother board (MSI or Asus). 

They are W11 compliant and now both MS and AMD have issued corrective updates for the latency issue they had, my machine purrs along. YMMV but i’m not going back to intel for the foreseeable future.

Plus the price is great !

I think you need to do some research here.

Google DAW and audio device / audio interface and how to use them.

Decide on the type of music you want to make and with what.

Soundtrap is not a DAW. Cakewalk is. To learn how to use Cakewalk takes time, there is a learning curve, patience is a virtue, (as with every DAW).

Does it matter if vst2 works ?

I have no idea what you’re on about.

VST 2 working fine here. On the Studio rig and on the office rig (both are StudoCats).

If you have the Classic Rock add on, the volume starts out very low, if you expand « Effects »  its down to zero. If you bump it up, dock the vst in the multi dock then collapse EZ Bass, it loses the volume focus and goes back to zero (ie no sound). All other add ons are ok.
 

This happens in the VST3 and 2 versions, but not stand alone. I have opened a ticket with Toontrack. According to a thread on their website, for the vst3 version its an issue.

J

If you want real time collabs try Jamulus

J

I would up the i/o buffers and run latency monitor to see what that throws up. 2 good places to start.

J

Yes this also happens to me. I get feeling its a bug with Toontrack

FWIW, The Classic Rock bass expansion pack cannot save the volume setting (known bug at Toontrack).

J

Transpose ?

Isn't there a setting in Windows that hides the app title bar?

No. I had this issue after an upgrade. Top righthand corner of the Cakewalk window - Workspace > None

That should fix your issue

Thanks! I'm in to the Fallout series from 3 on and Skyrim but that's it. I was told I can run them in 1080p HD at 60fps smooth as glass with a 1060 video card with 16Gb ram. Good luck finding one though. 😩I looked for months if you recall the thread and I never could find one, and when I did it was a scam. Took me weeks to get my money back from eBay.

I see they just remastered and re-released Quake. You can play it online again even on consoles. I don't even want to get sucked in to that scene again. It consumed my life way back in the day. Hah. It still doesn't look as good as GLQuake though if you remember that port. I made a custom bootable DVD a long time ago with all the editors, GLQuake, various scripts, and all the official add-on's with original CD soundtracks (compressed). Plus it had Quake II and all the official add-on's for it as well. You can play it from the disc or copy it to your drive and customize it more. It won't work on Windows 7 or 10 but it fires right up on XP. I can't bring myself to throw it out even though I don't have an XP machine any more.

FWIW you can play the Quake games on a W10 machine, BUT, through the Steam platform. Doesn’t look good, imho.f

I use CbB for recording my own music (rock, blues) and for putting my own stamp on some covers.

Also for recording our group live and in rehearsal (16 tracks of audio in 1 hour stretches) via a MTK 22 mixer which has full USB capabilities.

I know it's just a stupid but of software but I truly feel like a friend or family member just died. 

We all know this is not going ti end well for the end users. It never has and never will.

And mark my words ... thjs will happen with Cakewalk by Bandlab. Yeah they can sit there and swear to God all day long it won't but money talks and b.s. walks.

Cakewalk will be sold too again some day so fast your head will spin. Anyone who says it won't is a liar.

Pure speculation

Have you activated the software yet ? Let it do that once, then you.re good to go.

Note it needs re-activating every 6 months or so, which it does automatically when you open it and your PC is online.

Was anyone offered the Win 11 update through Windows update? None of my PC's are being offered it even though they are marked as compatible.

No, Downloaded the update assistant and used that.

The AMD and MS patches are both live now.

My Ryzen set up seems to be  more sprightly now.

I don’t know which is worse, this or Sheryl Crow.

Listened, then went back to your original post and realized you weren't saying THIS song was bad but almost any cover.  Got it.  'Cause I was going to say, damn! That's not bad at all! 😁
