The day & years before when I was using Platinum there has never been this issue. I read that the new bandlab version was supposed to be more stable /less resource demanding so it is a little tough for me to think the card that worked perfectly with Platinum on Monday (and the past several years) suddenlyhas an issue Tuesday. I don't know what you mean by pause/break button? Where is it and what does it do? Asio Drivers. Same as Platinum.

I just copied the .dll to the VST folder and did a rescan.

I'm not worried I just wonder why Cake always defaults the compressor after the eq like it's their "suggestion" for some reason I don't know about.

Pretty new to band lab but have used every version of Cake since 4. I was using Platinum for a few years and since it was getting glitchy with my newly updated Melodyne, I decided to jump to the Bandlab version. Only problem (s) I am having with it is: 1. I need to need to have the input echo on to hear when editing blobs and I never did before. Not a big deal but strange. I have read about the Global effects button thing but that is not relevant here. .2 My biggest problem,The floating timeline cursor is "jerky" when playing/recording. I have a pretty powerful computer with dedicated video card. This never happened before in Platinum and now with the bandlab version, it is fuzzy double vision looking and jerky across the screen,not smooth like before. Is there maybe a new setting I'm missing. I tried for the heck of it to up the buffer but it did not affect the crummy looking cursor.

I know this has been covered a lot in the "legacy" forum, I searched here for some recent opinion and couldn't find any (searching "prochannel compressor & EQ) So I am again wondering why Prochannel defaults placing the compressor after the EQ? I had always been taught compressor should go first but it might make sense to cut frequencies you don't want before they can affect the compression. Right now I am speaking of Vocal tracks and using either the CA-2A or PC76 compressors. Where should/do you recommend EQ placement and why?

In the CA-2A peak reduction controls the amount of compression and gain controls the post-processed output level. I would call that make-up gain.

Problem that I have with this is that it t doesn't seem to have any "makeup gain" and diminishes the signal quite a bit. Am I missing something?

I am still running the last non bandlab version. I am skeptical of the "free" version which requires a "downloader" to download. If it was really free this wouldn't be required. Seems there is something going on behind the curtain I don't know if I can trust.

Thank you everybody for all the great suggestions!

I don't see why not. At one point it was being given away for free.

Looks like it is 64 bit also. Normally not offered for free!

Thanks I'll try it!

I tried this one it buzzed and had all kinds of problems

Good luck getting them to do that.

I'm using the Lost Angel now. Even if I was a millionaire I doubt I would pay $100.00 for a plug in. I heard the Waves is good, if it was $30.00 I might try it.

That would be a closer to reasonable price. $180.00 for a plug in....No way.

Thank you very much for your efforts!

Do you have to keep bandlab assistant on your computer? If I wanted to download/use say, Sonar platinum (bandlab version) will it run without the assistant? I am always leery about "assistant " type programs, being as if it was really free you could just download it. "Assistant" downloads usually tell me something is phoning home,tracking or taxing my memory somehow.

Thanks. I was trying to change this in preferences/colors. I don't think I have a "theme editor".

Where?

How can I get the CA-2A?

As I had said, the "modulation" thing was just an example, it has little to do with what I am asking. I initially thought that was enough to get someone to understand what I was asking for. The last screenshot I provided showed and circled the exact text I want to change color of. In your example short delay,plate room, That is what I wan to change text color of. Yours are green. What element changes it to green? I want a different color for "on" and "off"

Ok I'll send the screen shot of my actual console. See how "short delay" is greyed out and when on is light blue? (circled) I want it to be greyed out when off but bright red or yellow when on. I don't know how I can be more specific than this.

Question: Is "Modulation" the name of one of your buses? If not, what is it? A: Actually that was just a sample from the internet to show the area of exact text I want to change. My sends are Delay & 2 reverebs So far this isn't answering my specific question. I have found a way to change text colors but not in the box I have circled. Modulation is just an example of the text & the exact location. When it is clicked on and off it changes color. I want to know how to change those colors and those colors only.

I have a downloaded theme I love to use with one exception I just cannot find a way to change something and I believe it is possible. In the console view, the text in the stackable sends boxes goes from a light grey/blue to a slightly darker blue and it is very difficult to see when it is clicked on. I know by seeing other themes there has to be a way to change the text color say,to red or something when it is on. Does anybody know how to do this? I've tried everything that makes sense to me. In the attached example I want "modulation" text to be a vastly different color when on. Which setting does this?
