WHEN I TRY TO RECORD WITH BASS DI....

I GET A  -----DISTORTION IN RECORDING IN OLDER CAKEWALK SONGS... BUT WHEN I START FROM SRATCH A NEW PROJECT THE BASS DI IS NOT NOT DISTORTED IN RECORDING... THERE IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT THE CAKEWALK BY BANDLAB AND OLDER CAKEWALK... YOU REALLY CAN NOTICE IT WITH BASS DI....

ITS LIKE I HAVE THE DRIVE UP.... EVEN WHEN TURN THE DRIVE DOWN VOLUME LOW....

"Older Cakewalk" is extremely generic and doesn't aid us further in determining your issue. Are you talking about the old DOS Cakewalk? Cakewalk by Roland? SONAR? Cakewalk by Bandlab? They're all different products with different plugins and things.

2) What is the most important factor in CPU to handle FX better.  Frequency or number of cores if we are talking of processors i7  processors 7th generation or higher.

It doesn't matter how high your core count or frequency is if your CPU is lacking on the Instructions Per Clock (IPC) field. A good example of that is the Ryzen 3600 beating the 1700/1800 when it came out, despite having 6 cores instead of 8.

(P.S. I don't know anything about BBCSO) - If it is a multi-timbral instrument (sounds like it is), you may want to try checking things one track at a time - I know it's tedious, but finding the problem is hard when you just throw everything on all at once.  -But, there are so many ways to do things, just keep working at it!

Troubleshooting mode - only provide MIDI one track at a time - until you find one(s) that don't cause the problem.  -Just a suggestion.

Only BBCSO Core and above are multi timbral. The free Discover version isn't.

Notice that, despite me having both PX-64 and VX-64 added to the plugin layout, they don't appear on the "+" menus, only showing up at the top portion of recently used plugins.

If you're using WASAPI Shared, you cannot change the buffer size.

After doing some maths, I'd have to download about 10 GB because of 4 plugins (Super Tap is v9, Berzerk Distortion and Sibilance are v11, CLA Echosphere is v12). The other 3 plugins are v 14, but that would add about 7.3 GB to that download if I couldn't use Waves Central for them.

While I might be want to try audio stuff with the pluginsI have, they're spread across at least 3 different versions, which means I'll have to download at least 12 GB worth of stuff I don't need for maybe 4 plugins.

I found it useful as a teaching tool. It was much easier to introduce basic concepts to my students with prime than more featured. DAWs

The only compressor you have available is useless and there's no way one could learn basic concepts on that. This video demonstrates this well. While it is showing v5, the only thing they did for v6 Prime was fix the button labels.

The biggest issue with studio one prine for me is the lack of compressor. 

The biggest issue for me in Prime is that Presonus removed every feature you would want to try in their DAW to see if it's worth purchasing later and turned into an ordinary featureless product. Couple that with the fact they force you to jump some hoops to have access to it and you'll find little reasons to use it when you compare it to another free alternatives like CbB.

Personally, I find dearVR MICRO a cut above most binaural panners out there, simply because it also allows you to set the elevation of the sound source, as well as adding artifical ambience to the sound with that panning applied.

Probably,  but since watching Paul Third youtube videos I can't use less than 96khz. You'd have to watch his videos to understand why (when recording at least with analog gear).

Maybe a light version could be created for recording at 96 khz (I know, prob asking too much) and by light I mean somehow a version maybe even undersampling, lol, instead of oversampling, just to monitor ourselves while recording.

Idk, I even myself would have to watch that Paul 3rd video again, lol (I think it's the one where he talks about audio interfaces and even the Prism Lyra or something like that colors your sound where cheaper audio interfaces do not)

Personally, all the differences Paul claims to hear in his video can only be measured 99% of the time. In the perfect linear world of digital audio, aliasing is a solved problem. When you introduce analog gear into the equation, you're opening a can of worms that could potentially cause you headaches, especially with old gear that was not developed with the thought of not introducing aliasing and IM products beyond the audible range.

BTW, if you're looking for Artist, you could pick up the iOne interface for $69 (currently on sale) and get it as part of the bundle (along with Studio Magic plug-in suite).

It's weird that getting an audio interface with Artist bundled in is cheaper than just buying Studio One Artist by itself.

Too bad, I only work with 96Khz and above... (not really, just 96Khz)

Well, in that case, the plugin will have no added benefit to the audio quality and use 20 times more CPU!

Currently, it's Studio One Artist that's bundled with some hardware.  The free version is Studio One Prime.  This is the case at least since S1 4.  I don't know about before.

Not really. You could always buy Artist since version 1. This is not like Ableton Live Lite, Bitwig 8-track or Cubase LE which you can only get with some pieces of hardware and the manufacturer has to give you essentially free upgrades to the next version, since this is not software you can buy (I can't speak for Bitwig, but Steinberg and Ableton will give you free upgrades to the next Cubase LE and Live Lite versions). Studio One Prime was introduced in version 3. It is essentially useless if you consider all the limitations it has. But Presonus is known for these strange business models like having a barebones DAW which was not much better than REAPER in v1 and v2, then introduced an intermediate version which was essentially the Artist version with two add-ons you could get separately, then to having a useless free version and what it should've had since version 1. I guess you can't take old strange practices from what is essentially a team of old Cubase devs.

I might hold onto that for later. Since I have Artist 2, the upgrade to Producer or Professional 6 is almost the price of the full version, so I might save money and upgrade to Professional straight away.

The only two products I was sort of considering out of what you can get are 69 bucks, so I got Hybrid keys instead. Everything else is just a beats pack with different interfaces.

The dirt is a bio I never expected could be film ised

 

The only appropriate answer to that is either "Big Mac. $1.03" or "Poopy Butt 'Round the house."

in BBCSO, the volume for the instruments is mapped to the mod wheel (CC1)

Let's see how it measures against Dragonfly Reverb and Valhalla Supermassive.

So to summarize: AT5's CPU usage is now pretty good, much better than when it launched, but could be truly awesome if they could fix this routing thing.

Apart from the large IR files, most of IK's performace issues come from the 3D rendered interfaces. I'm missing some sort of mode where we can only tweak without being bothered by skeumorphism, especially in amps that have push pull knobs, like the Mesa Mark models. In some of those, you're sometimes not sure if the control is on or not.

Although, one of the good changes from 4 to 5 happenes with the Satriani amps. For some reason, some of them were extremely resource hungry in 4

That's some really annoying generic change log info. I really wish IKM would list the items that were fixed or improved!

I'm pretty sure it's most likely some different attempt at anti-piracy measures. I'm yet to see them doing fixes that really matter, like improving plugin performance so it loads faster, for example. Or fixing the blurry rendering of the 3D stuff.

The link for the last one returns a 404.

I'd like to confess that I do not have 666 finished songs, I don't even have 66 finished songs (or even 66 song ideas). if I'm being honest with myself about "finished," and if that means "I'd play this at a party or send it to a college radio station or put it up on Bandcamp, where the song has all of its parts together and is recorded and mixed. Well, it's probably more like.....6.

While you may not have 666 finished songs, I'm pretty sure you can easily come up with 666 excuses. We all can. What if that plugin we only opened once to activate and we don't even remember the name is necessary in some song/mix/project and we don't have it installed? The world will end!

"Strangely" enough, Expose does the exact same thing this does without the need of fancy AI and even allows you to compare your mix to a reference track of your choice, with it telling how close to it your mix is. Maybe the Mastering the Mix guys are some form of AI overlords which cracked the code already...Or this is a task you don't need AI for.
