  1. Excellent mix on a theme that the arrangement doesn't make repetitive. Very good work!

    One negative (IMHO); the three cymbal hits at 2:11 could be softened, pulled back, or darkened a bit more like the other cymbal swells as they are a bit out of character.

    ... just curious what other products you know cache renderings? Ty

    All video platforms that use XML files for their edit decision list will hold render files somewhere on a drive... until you manually delete them.

    Win+Tab is another poorly known one.

    That was one of the first that I memorized years ago when I had a tendency to have a bunch of windows open on top of each other. Now it is the quickest way for me to get from TV to PRV to Console, et al.

    sheesh, i thought everyone knew these :P the real fun begins when you fat finger it in lieu of the alt or ctrl keys... let mayhem reign!

    Been there, done that. I use a big trackball, so mousing is not stressful on the hand/arm, but still... discovered this one totally by accident.

  5. I was today years old when, after using 4 monitors for the last 14 years, found out that the combination of the WIN key and the direction arrows on my Querty keyboard will snap an open window to full screen, half screen, or quarter screen of the monitor that they are on. Always snapped them to a corner/side/full with the mouse before. Too kool.

    Never too old to discover a new wonder of the world, I guess.

  6. EDIT: Well CR@P... looks like I jinxed it folks. Sorry!!!

    This is what the Native Instruments forum looks like since late on Friday. 20 posts per page, over 70 pages deep so far.

    We should consider our little community lucky they haven't found us yet.Screenshot_20240205-192703_Chrome.thumb.png.4992677d6324415142a347082b5e91e2.png

  7. I've had several really odd things get changed in Preferences over the years... sometimes from an update to the program, sometimes from a nondescript OS update, and sometimes from no logical causation at all. The latter ones I chalk up to just a random nutrino from the sun intersecting with a storage cell on my drives.

    Who knows?

    Can you just add synths to the synth view and NOT create a track for them? If true, that's is awesome. I can seriously improve my workflow.

    Yes, although not having an input track to drive it, or an output track to hear it would lead to the question "what workflow"?

    17 minutes ago, Bruce Gombrelli said:

    It's obviously possible to have 2 synths assigned to a track, 2 in rack synth view and only 1 that shows up in the plug in in the actual track itself. 

    AFAIK it is not possible to assign more than one synth to an output track, tho you can drive multiple MIDI tracks into a synth: ex; one for notes, one for controllers.
    Check in the track manager for hidden or archived tracks.

    I would rather my house burn down than not be able to get signal coming through a channel.

    I'm pretty sure that you might want to re-evaluate your priorities. LOL.

    Exactly, the more threads we have, the better chance the Bakers get the signal. ;)

    Unless you've been under a rock, you may have noticed that the Bakers have been on an extended hiatus from this forum since shortly after the last release... and certainly aren't going to extend any effort in creating a patch for this incredibly minor inconvenience. 

    Don't sweat the small stuff.

    Quick-grouping should work with freeze buttons. Ctrl+A to select everything, then Ctrl+click a freeze button.

    This is hilarious (as related to your reply on my Cynical Rant, LOL) in that I attempted on THREE different existing project sessions today to Quick-Group and Freeze with absolutely no luck.


    And just now, I started a new project with 5 different tracks/instruments... Quick-Grouped them and then CTRL-Freeze, and it worked.

    Go figure!

  12. I used to provide NI input as an adjunct marketing advisor several years ago, and saw the direction that they were headed in terms of design and implementation. I was not impressed, so decided to stop upgrading after Komplete CE V13 & Kontakt 6. If you spend any time on the NI forum, you will soon see that the recent evolutions in both HW & SW have turned out to be an absolute turd farm. It is a well known issue now that Kontakt 7/KK3.x/Mk3 are extremely slow, even after all sources have been scanned into the DBF. Some "in the know" believe that it is due to the recent implementation of the resizable vector graphics. I'm really glad that I saw that coming and haven't upgraded anything in over a year. I've started to add instruments from any other source because of that.

    I have scoring templates with 120+ tracks each with individual articulations instituted, then archived until needed using KK as a wrapper (for the NKS VSTi's) and VSL & EW & Spitfire as well. This template loads in about 50 seconds, but I know better than to hit any other key until the cursor stops spinning. And yet, I will occasionally work faster than the machine & slaves can respond, and inadvertently crash the application, tho that is only about once a month. I'm on this thing as a full time gig and have just gotten used to the pitfalls.

    It is a bug, as verified.  Thankfully the solution is simply to go REALLY slow with certain parameter changes among so many tracks, simultaneously.
    Ever hit the save button while playing 64 tracks with numerous plugins?

    It's not a bug. It is within the specified timeslices that the clock rate of your CPU & I/O chipset allows.
    Even a Cray-3 Vector is not completely instantaneous. Can't break the laws of physics, unfortunately.
