  1. Scook, Thanks "It may be found by clicking in the plug-in UI followed by the F1 key." This is what I was looking for. I've not used SI and didn't know about the "F1" key.
  2. Friends, I've been searching for a tutorial to help understand the implementation of the SI Bass Guitar. Is there a folder that contains those grids? Specifically, how do I get the pattern grid into my project? I like the NiceBass using either or both Pop or walking in the Jazz blues section. Any help appreciated
  3. Sorry for the late reply. I will begin to delve into your answer above and your youtube site. I truly appreciate your insight and help. Willard
  4. Why is my articulation map scripting for EastWest NOT working? I have followed the Tutorials from Tony Manfredonia, XEL OHH and Mike @Creative sauce. I've been successful w/ my scripting for BBC, but EW is a hard nut to crack for me. Below are the instruments I've chosen for 5 instances of EW - 1st, 2nd Violins, Viola, Celli, Bass: Chan:1 1st VLN NV NV NV VB RR NI Chan:2 2nd VLN Pizz RRX4 Chan3: Viola Spic Marc MOD Chan4: Celli Tremolo NI Chan5: Bassi Trill HT WT NI I have enclosed two images: EW-1 Shows 3 channels responding to the incoming midi data for the 1st Vln. EW-3 Shows my EW articulation map editor page along with tracks and the synth rack. 2 side questions: In the articulations view the Pizz & leg are in bold print, the last 3 are not, why? In the generate MIDI events I don't understand why all five articulations don't all appear in the drop down list? Can anyone see the error of my ways? As always I appreciate the expertise of this great forum. Thanks Willard
  5. Nigel, Thanks for tip. I've looked at these youtube sites with the exception of EXL's His explanation, because it dealt w/ BBC, and the way in which I am learning to use it, helped alot. Thanks Willard
  6. Hi all, I like to transcibe early music. Much of it consists of 3/2, 6/8, 4/1 time signatures. Is there a connection between ticks and tempo in order to get, for example, either 2 clicks per measure or 6? In a piece I am transcribing currently, the correlation between the Adagio mm and the actuall performace tempo doesn't jive. I adjust by raising or lowing the tempo. Can that problem be overcome? When using a multi VST - like GPO - using the keyswitch allows one to need a single instance of a part present. However, with EW Play or Kontakt etc, the extensive variety of KS articulations can not ALL be represented in one track. QUESTION: How do you approach this dilemma? Do you add the entire midi/or audio to a track; or just copy those notes that require those additional articulations to a new track? Thanks for any advice.
  7. Serendipitous playing around in the plugin manager somehow thru various deletions etc the original appeared. Sorry to bother you all. Willard
  8. Hi all, I was attempting to install a new VST (w/o success) and spent too much time in the Plug-in manager. Apparently while shifting things around I screwed up. The Audio FX now shows an backup synth instrument page. How can I (do I) resurrect the Audio FX page into the Brower . I am specifically talking about the FX that appears in the 1st spot next to MIDI FX. Attached is a png the shows the Audio FX filled with an old instrument file rather than the audio files that used to appear there. Any suggestions appreciated Willard
  9. Matthew, As I study your templates more, I realize that you do what I am looking to do when you 'enable' the synth and the instrument. How do I accomplish this? Willard
  10. Thanks for that work on the template. You have all the instruments loaded wihin the "LABS orchestra" am I correct? Is there a way to combine various VST's ie GPO, E/W and spitfire into one templete and then disable loading into ram a particular patch or an entire synth, yet retain the possibilities of adding later? Willard
  11. Thanks for your reply. Just to make sure I'm on the right track. I could have a series of VST folders ie EW; GPO; listed but empty. Then when I open the template simply install what I need. IE 5 GPO tracks, 2 EW etc Thanks Willard
  12. I am developing a template but have been unable to find info on disabling a VST from loading into ram. I use BBC SO, GPO 5, easrwest string orch much more than my other orch Vst's. Generally use a number of articulations and various Vst instruments, but not in every project Is there a way to have a folder w/ eastwest present, but w/o it being loaded into ram? Willard
  13. After a forced ms upgrade this morning, my sound is non-existent. I've done the sound test w/in microsoft, the sound test with my Behringer UMC202 uphoria. I've changed my audio back and forth between 48000 and 44100, checked all connections. My drivers are updated. I don't get anysound when playing youtube videos etc. Any suggestions. I've only a smattering of ignorance w computer technology. Willard
  14. Thanks, That's all I needed. Sonivox's guidance is quite wanting. Willard
  15. I have no understanding of how to route multiple instruments from CbB to the VST. Do I need multiple instances of the VST ie Flutes Sonivox 1, Clar Sonivox 2? Or can I use a single instance of Sonivox and route channel 1 flutes, channel 2 clarinets? I've tried both but I'm missing something. Willard
  16. Somehow, I've found the files all over the place by using the search. I think it has something with the way I'm starting the file. I've been cheating and using the same file project over and over rather than my original template. That is probably where the confusion is coming in. Thanks for your help! Willard
  17. I am confused. Nornally when I save a project a new folder is added "audio". They are labled (entire mix 1 etc). A couple of my recent ptojects have not developed the "audio " folder so I have no idea where the bounced mixes went I have routed the midi thru my Addictive Keys synth. I bounce the file and can't locate any audio file. My preference says D:\cakewalk content\audio library. However I am beginning to believe that has nothing to do with this situation. Any help appreciated.
  18. I have a small SSD of 500Gb and a 900 GB SATA drive. I am going to purchase an East/West library. In order to stretch my SSD space, would it be advisable to run CbB from the SATA dr and leave all my sound libraries on the SSD. If so, can I simply redirect a new download of CbB to the SATA dr? Thanks Willard
  19. Is there anyone who is writing SFZ code using Visual Studio Code? With this stay at home order I see an opportunity to try my hand at this. I kinow NOTHING about coding, but I would like to experiment w/ the many early SFZ and SF2 files I have, but don't use. EMU Proteus 2 etc. OR, a list of places that have tutorials going from simple to complex coding. The latter are sorely missing w/ youtube. The majority I found tend to assume you are a knowledgeable coder. Thanks Willard
  20. Hi all, Really weird problem. I am constructing a project from my q49 kybd. All midi notes are correct. Project in A min. 3/4 's thru and an A double prime (midi key #57?) plays slightly flat. All other A's of the same play correctly. This happens regardless of synth. I've checked midi event list and there are no extra midi cc's in that line. On the other synths ARIA player and Somivox Orchestral companion play correct when I press the appropriate key on the synth property page. Any ideas for trouble shooting? Willard
  21. Problem Solved I set my ARIA instrument up with wrong CbB settings. I was doing some different experiments and then took a break from everything for awhile. When I came back to using the program again I hadn't reset the settings! gettin' old ain't for the faint of heart!
  22. For some reason I can't seem to get a wav file to appear on instruments I never had trouble with. Hooked up as usual Midi: input Q49 kybd output to ARIA (or any other Synth) channel output assigned output to ARIA, echo on Synth: Aria echo on (w/ channel and instru assignment) output to Master A wav form does appear at the master but not w/ the aria Midi cc's are Vel, Modulation and Volume Does not work w/ midi files or directly from the Kybd. What's my 75 yr old mind missing?
  23. The only major problem I have had w/ CWB was a windows crash. Since then working great. With the onset of both 32 and 64 bit plug-ins, I wonder if it is worth some comments about keeping both sets and/or eliminating 32 bit if possible?
