  1. For my long planned Superior Drummer....waiting for Black Friday saves me 100 bucks There is a very small chance, in many years shortly before I die....I get smart
  2. I just have budget dektop pc's...1 step up from the cheap models. 1 fried long ago but could fix it by installing a video card in the back. I expect dust/dirt in combination with constant maxed out cooler running caused the cooking. Since then I clean it every year and have a standard working cooler...all is good. I should be good for next 30 years / till my 80's Only spectacular DAW improvements would make me get new computer.
  3. Thanks John, I bought new Kingston RAM for my 3 old computers, they have reasonable SSD and 2 TB storage each. If I get it all working, I should be ok for the remainder of my time maybe Don't know ofcourse if there's any software coming in future, but hoping I can stay with my machines..
  4. tanks, I saved that advise for my new laptop coming next ! amazing mcAffee get away with it...had thought someone succesfully sewed 'm...awell...mr McAffee hang himself..
  5. Am I wong thinking McAffee installed software to make my laptop slower....at the end of my 1 year contract ? Had this several times untill years ago I removed all McAffee.. Just curious...
  6. somewhat simular these free VST's: Simple Haas effect: VFXFreehaas Proximity VST has a bunch of presets that can be fun..
  7. Hi, for a new VST with 500GB samples...would I want to increase RAM from 8 to 16GB ? Windows 7 and Intel i7 cpu / 2TB Also, any Windows/Cakewalk setting update that would help ? Thanks for reading + wishing a good weekend 😊
  8. no, it worked this week for me...I just enter a number (no dots or anything) and press enter, done. (you have to stay under 30% of the total purchase amount)
  9. Thanks Jim for your reply. though the drive is 10 y/o, I have 3 same PC's (2 backups) and had this on all when I checked/backed up lately.
  10. iic the SSL console bus compressor has a 'feedback' circuit...perhaps the Warm Audio is too. My Sknote (pulse width modulation) compressor had such circuit too, to me it sounded a bit like RMS compressing.....made the 'tempo/beat' energy somewhat 'relax'. To me it sounded like the attack was 1 hair later, but it can be real nice. Feedback + RMS combined probably is a little too much for a bus in most situations (could be brilliant on fe backing vocals maybe).
  11. related somewhat, this EQ boosts freqs based on a tracks Key. (I never try this stuff -> far beyond my skills/talent) https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/11473-Scaler-EQ?a_aid=5ffdbe6f41253&data1=mrd-nl-9120433730297132000
  12. John, thank you for taking time ! On control bar 'performance' module, 'disk load' window went red on engine dropouts. I'd say my SSD is good but maybe software orsetting caused the disk load/audio engine probs (have no virusscanner, defender,firewall,Windows update = off). Checking/unchecking 'use multiprocessing' / 'MMCSS' didn't help, 'enable read caching' = off always. Running high samplerate + low buffer but very few VST/tracks (increasing buffer didn't help). Maybe I should check CPU / RAM settings on my computer. Thanks for your time and help, I'm ok for now
  13. imo a stereo compressor can do magic..'glueing' things and sometimes making the mids (bass,drums) tighter. depending on the material, sometimes a 'dual mono' compressor works better. imo dual mono keeps/adds width/depth that you can lose a bit on stereo (or linked dual mono). (Just what I used to hear on my Drawmer dl251 compressor (VCA dual mono with a 'link' and 'peak/rms' modes switch).
  14. I'd have free pack of a toilet paper version
  15. Jim, David THANK YOU. (Seems) solved now, no more audio engine dropouts. Could be I had 'global folders' not set correctly...reset all the folderpaths too and created a new project + folder. Thank you guys, you ROCK !
  16. Hi Folks, Hoping someone could help.. I can't use Cakewalk when setting project path to D-drive....when I change it to C-drive problem is solved. My C-drive hasn't got much free space.....so hoping someone knows a trick/solution.. MANY THANKS !!!
  17. That is either a USB cable from the Gene Simmons vault or a Custom Shop Masterbuilt (handwired). Joe Bonamassa has 1 surely for under 100
