Wow, what a timely PSA!  This is the only thing that I'd like to see go viral right now   Well done, Freddy, and thank you for your service!

After reinstalling the newest update, the presets are there in the PC module!  Thanks for fixing this.  What an awesome update this turned out to be.

Update:  I just reloaded this update and found that the docking option problem I mentioned earlier went away.

I really love the arranger in this new version, in fact, I've already put it to use.  The only problem I've seen, so far, is that the docking options for the ProChannel doesn't work for me.  The browser docking options works fine, just not the PC.  I also didn't get any presets with the PC as others have reported.  Otherwise, this will be a fantastic update when it's all ironed out.

Sometimes you don't know how much you like a song until you haven't heard it in a while, and this is one of them.  I like the texture of your voice in this, and it makes this version uniquely yours.  All that stands out is that it is hot and bright, almost brittle.  Otherwise, this is very cool.  Nice choice of songs.

Your voice is the star of this song which makes the lyrics very compelling.  I think a simple arrangement is great for this, and the mix is very close.  This sounds about 90% done, so don't overthink this.  Stay safe!

I think this is better than the first mix, which I liked.  I'd be happy with this mix; everything is strong, well defined, and it has presence and clarity.  Well done.

Oh  yeah.....

This sounds like it might be the duration of the notes being shortened.  If you're familiar with the Piano Roll View, you might check the duration of the notes there, where you can select the offending notes and edit them at once or singly.  Consult the manual or the numerous videos on editing if you have any questions.  Good luck.

Superb!  It hits all my buttons.  It's songs like this that keep me coming back to this site for more.

Wow, I like this a lot.  As is.  To me, this has depth, presence, energy, and good lyrics.  Sail on!

I really like this song and style.  It takes me back.  Your performances are spot on, as well.  I did have a little trouble understanding the lyrics because the reverb is quite present (as 80's era songs often are).  That's just a matter of taste, and all in all, this song is quite tasty.

This is a beautiful song, Rex.  All that stood out to me was the BV vox at the end (around the 3:20 mark); it sounded a tiny bit out of tune.  The rest of the song is fine.  I like the phased/chorused guitar.  You're very close, can't wait to hear it again!

Great collab guys. Outstanding playing, production and mix. I'm jealous of people who can work this fast. Man, I can't even tune a guitar in the time it took you guys to finish this song. ☹️

Thank you so much.  Love your song, too.

Loved all the various musical performances.  I couldn't really understand the lyrics, but I've never understood *her* either.

Thanks David, I don't understand "her" either...

Fade out your master bus-automation envelope works fine for this.

Is your echo input turned on?  It must be on or you won't hear the effect in real time.  That's all I can  think of.

I guess I like this style of music more than I thought.  I had to listen to this a few times so as not to miss anything.  If I had mixed this, I would be very happy!  I'd be even happier if I had played it or written it.  Great job!

Barry, one thing you've done well - you captured the power in your voice and the strength of your guitar playing.  I might mix your voice a tad drier, to let the lyrics shine, and I would pare the song down at the end (unless you plan on adding additional instruments) and fade out.  No matter, you're on the right track if your writing is this good.  You have a special voice that deserves to be heard.

Missed this the 1st time around.
I'm impressed you came up with the lyrics so fast.
I could hear the Lynn and Daryl styles in there for sure. Nice melding job.
Lynn, that kind of swirly vocal fx you're using works really well.
Thought I'd lost my internet when that silent bit came in. 😁
Congrats on an excellent collaboration.

Thank you, Bjorn!  Daryl's music suggests any number of things, but this song just spoke to me.  As for the vocal f/x, I only used a little delay (eighth note), but I doubled the lead and added a harmony above the lead for 3 parts.  It's the natural doubling effect of the two leads that comes out.  Thanks to you and others for noticing.

Fabulous!  Witty!  Catchy!  You just keep getting better.  I hope this eases your daughter's pain.  This is a song that I'll be sharing with a few of my friends.  Stay well, mate!

Douglas, this is a terrific song!  I'm going to listen to it a few more times to absorb it, but good writing.  It has a great retro vibe and a lot of energy.  All I noticed was that it was a bit bright in my speakers like it has a lot of upper mid range.  But, it does support the vox, so not such a big deal.  Keep up the good work.

Paul, this is a good song that could potentially be stellar.  Your vocal and lyrics are quite good, but, on my end, I'm losing the words because the reverb washes them out.  So, I think if you get the drums right, you might try a little drier mix on the vox.  Who knows?  Good luck with this, I look forward to your progress.

Wow!  Tom, I missed this one due to the craziness of my life over the last few months, but I'm glad I found this gem.  This sounds like a page from my life, in regards to both the story and the musical influences.  If my friends, the Rainmakers, ever need a fill-in, I would recommend you.

Wookie and Tom, I want to thank you both for your replies and encouragement! It does mean a lot in times like this.
