Razorlame is a GUI for the lame encoder. It is a free batch wave to mp3 program. (It can do a bunch of codecs) It requires Lame encoder to work. https://sourceforge.net/projects/razorlame/ I couldn’t find the direct sourceforge link Here are links to 32 & 64 bit versions https://www.videohelp.com/software/Lame-MP3

This is actually video software but works on a few types of audio files. Three great features. 1 it’s free! 2 It will do 40 songs rather quickly. 3 It is pretty good at what it does. From the web - it is not a compressor, normalizer or limiter although it contains all three. I should have said 4 great features #4 It is super easy to use. You should give it a try! https://www.videohelp.com/software/The-Levelator

Have any of you guys ever had a song you saved, and when you reopen it all the volume or gain envelopes are pegged to the top? What key combination could cause this?

Can you check to see if you have some volume or gain envelops all the way to the top. I have seen this happen a few times. Please post a response if this was the problem. Thanks

Turn the volume up on the track. Lower all but the fade. Fade in where the fade out was. It is a little tricky and will probably add some noise to that section.

I will too.

I just assumed because almost everything else works that way. Sorry for the misinformation.

You can select multiple clips, hold the CTRL key down, move the volume while it is down. Release the volume slider, then lift the CTRL key. All selected clips or tracks will change. You can use this on gain, effect send volume, pan and a tons of other stuff. You can also do this with midi. You can’t do mixed clips like some audio and some midi tracks/clips.

You already have your answer, but clip gain is special because it is reflected in the wave form graphic.

Thanks I think I have used EZ Nashville a few times. I thought they were barely ok. Thanks all, I was hoping like 10 people should say why don’t you use “this” one. Back to the drawing board so to speak.

What are your favorite brushes For EZ Drummer or SD3? tia

Hey John, I just wanted to drop back in on this thread. The reason is that I just want to thank you for putting the link to Sonobus in this thread. Once I finally got that thing set up it works really really well. Thanks to you, I can now listen to, and mix in any room in the house. Or should I say, any room in any house in any state in any country. I pair Sonobus with RVNC. They work great together!

I have had this happen a few times, but not with just Omnisphere. I have had tracks that would just not freeze. And, yes the ports were all set up properly. I had a large project where after saving and reopening, all the ports were shifted one slot. I haven’t had much time to play with this to figure out what happened. I was going to freeze a few tracks then delete delete the top one while leaving it frozen. Save and reopen it to see what happens.

Someone said there are no 32bit converters. Me I got to google everything lol. Check out Mytek - True 32 bit integer. It guess this is future proofing your recording, and emptying your pocket book simultaneously. Wow 384kHz /32 bit integer. Now some math guy - how many bytes per minute does this thing use 😊 and how many empty 0’s are in my files per minute?

John thanks for the Sonobus idea. I downloaded Sonobus. It did not work out of the box so to speak. It needs ports open or something like that to communicate. It would be great if I can get it working.

My solution for many years has been Samplit2. I also have newer software called SampleRobot. I like the simplicity of Samplit2, but they both work great to copy hardware to Kontakt files. Most of my favorite sounds have been sampled. Both softwares let you chose how large/detailed file you want to make. If you don’t know about these you should look into them.

Thanks, John, I was thinking about something like this. I was going to try FarPlay. Have you tried it?

I don't remember it, but I must have set up shortcuts for Lyrics etc. Page 624 in the github docs might help some. https://bandlab.github.io/cakewalk/docs/Cakewalk Reference Guide.pdf There is a floating toolbar, you can use in the staff view. Press the mouse roll wheel. Playscore2 free 1 week trial scan to MIDI or XML (unless you are working from handwritten scores) There is another one for iphone I have used it some, but I can't remember the name of it. Cakewalk can import XML Windows version https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/playscore-2/9MW52N003G4D?hl=en-us&gl=ushttps://apps.microsoft.com/detail/playscore-2/9MW52N003G4D?hl=en-us&gl=us You can do a lot of scores in 1 week! You will probably have to do some corrections, but it's way faster than 1 note at a time. EDIT -> You might look at this one too - MusicReader - It has higher ratings

I was thinking that frozen tracks are already 32 bit why not keep them at this resolution to the end? Will it bounce as fast not having to do the extra conversion? Or, does it convert to 32 or 64 bit and then mix the track signals to the final bus in that bit depth anyway, and then reconvert to the final bit depth?

Those are like alt-y

Thanks Andres!

I'm talking 44K/32Bit Since I have a bunch of frozen soft synth tracks, I was wondering about the bounce bit depth. The frozen tracks are already @32bit according to what I have read. Wouldn't it be almost as fast to bounce all to 32, because all frozen tracks are already 32bit This way the synth and other frozen tracks are merged and copied, no bit recomputation. I can't hear the difference, but I'm sure there are micro differences. Any ideas?

Silly me, that guitar jack is mono. I guess I am going to put a jack on each side of the wall. Any suggestions for a medium heavy stereo bulk headphone cable / connection box or other ideas?

Whats your ideas? Thanks!

I don’t know those korgs. Kurzweil added this with spiff in 1999. I was reading here -> https://gearspace.com/board/electronic-music-instruments-and-electronic-music-production/694317-list-hardware-synths-modules-digital-audio-outputs-s-pdif-etc.html It looks like several models can add a spiff card. That might be an option on an older keyboard I just read a Reddit forum a guys said korg doesn’t do much usb audio. But I know that The korg Kronos has usb audio. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/523479/Korg-Pa-500.html I looked some but this is 283 pages! I didn’t find it. Good Luck!
