I do find chatacter exllent but kinda harsh , am i wrong ?

Vertigo terms , pa licencins is perfect 

5.3 The license is limited to the right to install and use the Software on a maximum of three computers belonging to the same company or household of Customer. In the case that due to a hardware defect or the like Customer is no longer be able to use the Software, Customer may acquire a new license key against payment of 29.00 EUR.
If Customer loses or damages the license key, a re-licensing of the Software against full license-fee is normally required. However, Customer may request Mustang Sound GmbH to supply a replacement key by (i) paying the aforementioned fee and (ii) submitting a written declaration in which Customer undertakes to refrain from using the replaced license key under threat of an appropriate contractual penalty, in order to avoid the need to re-license the Software. Acceptance of such declaration is at the sole discretion of Mustang Sound GmbH.

since i change a lot of hardware , am i right to be in little stress pre purchase ?

I knew it !! When we requested the rezize option from Pa , no communication , about it ... i knew something was going on under the hood ...

Hi guyz , i wanted to know if you guyz have the same issues with this exellent plugin (but unusable cause if those)

to reproduce , two scenarios 

A)     1) launch sat x , choose any algo ( tape , tube what ever) , unlink input and output .....let say you put input at 1db and output at -2db 

          2) save project , re open , now the input jumped at 2db like if it was linked 

B)     1) launch sat x, choose any algo , unlink input and output , tweak them , if re linked , if you then move any of them , input will then jump to output value , no more relatif ...

C ) if any oversampling is choosen , of you save the project and reopen , the led is not on , the problem is that we don t even know if the oversampling is also off and state lost or not ...

can you guyz try to reproduce and confirm ...i ve been relaying this issue since some time now and still no fix ...  so before pushing them more and wanna have feedback of others  

Thks guyz , and because of this setting loss at save , i can t use what i consider one of the most versatile and great sounding sat plugin around.

Peter. If you read this , we need negative values for input , because the headroom is so different from let s say tube to transformers ... we really need this , because gainstaging isn t sometime done at production stage when sometime we use this baby !!

I have updated , standalone has sole weird stuff when reseting the arpegg ...all good via daw ... arpegg is more enjoyable now and powerfull , and new haedware sounds rocks ...worth upgrading and looks safe here .

I was testing the free version today , and it s exzctlly the same sound as reamp without control , still multiband ....

iron  spinds classier imho but woth less mojo

You are welcome, Zo!

Frankly, one can make great records with any amp sim. They are all good.  But to me the only one that sounds and feels like the real deal and stands out of the crowd is... right, ReValver.

 

Ahah the one i don t have ! 

Thks .

Just demoed it. Certainly not as sluggish as other PG products, slick UI, not scalable, but usable. Sounds better than previous versions, but (still) has severe aliasing, audible with high gain settings on high pitched notes. Doesn't perform as good as competing ampsims, which all work fine at 96kHz/16samples on my Scarlett 6i6 1st gen. FX2 works as expected only at 44.1kHz/16 samples. At  other sample rates it becomes a ring modulator or requires higher buffer settings.

Still feels like the initial attack is processed by an SSL type compressor and then fed into all other modules. Definitely wrong approach!

Guitar match is an interesting feature, but considering the price point, I'll stick with Peavey ReValver with similar functionality, better audio quality and clever pricing.

Thks for that precise and educated feedback ... , may i ask you if you had to keep one amp sim , witch one would it be ?

You can pretty much do ALL of that using the Cakewalk Plugin Manager:

 

[Edit] - The Cakewalk Plugin Manager has it's own offline help file, so clicking the help button will actually give you more info on how to use layouts etc.

I think you didn t understood our concern , of course a lot can be done via the plugin manager , we re talking withing the browser ....i remember rename dll via registry lol back then ahah ...

The browser itself should be a place of easy interaction. , actually it s just a surface interface display imho .

Agree. And plugin browser is kind of over-simplistic... It would be nice to be able to perform any possible plugin related action at its level.

No possibility to selectively hide/show/remove plugin to fine tune what is showed. Also some details about location in status bar.  Creating custom assignments to categories stored in user profile on server - to easily import/export between different machines and survive crash. More customization. Etc... Lots still to improve...

Also many plugin providers create kind of mindless install which are trashing space and introduce total mess... Like forcing installing 32-bit plugins, or aax for people who don't have pro tools, or putting at steinberg dirs etc...  Cool and powerful plugin browser could help a lot. 

GAS affected people need browser which is state of art   We have hundreds plugins...

I m 100 % with you , the number one interaction we have in daw is with plugin , this is simply crucial , studio and waveform have it a little better in certain area , sonar better in other ´ but globaly it really need a whole dev phase on its own ... and the browser in general .... this is solething that sonar really needs , the rest is goodies , extra imho , witch doesn,t mean this isn t worth , but i tend to go pragmatic on stuff and simply consider priorities based on workflow impact .

Thks guyz , it's a cool features for sure ... but i would love enhacement in plugin layout , seeing plugins guys would be great , multi plugin docking , ect ...

Zo, just two words: ripple button

Is it working as intended ?

First thing - DO NOT REMOVE SONAR - you'll need SONAR to keep all the instruments (3rd party and otherwise) that doesn't come with the new version. Cakewalk by BandLab will happily live beside your existing SONAR installation, and all the extra stuff that came with SONAR will work with Cakewalk.

Cakewalk is installed using the BandLab Assistant, which is basically BandLab's equivalent of the Cakewalk Command Center. Download the BandLab Assistant by hitting the download button on this page:  https://www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk

Go to the Apps tab on the BandLab Assistant, and you'll see the option to install Cakewalk.

thks Mark , i appreciate for your time , will give it a try after back up

so i will have both versions ?

Just now, msmcleod said:

Stability and speed is what the Cakewalk devs have been concentrating on since BandLab took over.

Here's the list of fixes & features since the demise of SONAR:

Thks  will have a lok right now .

Tell me if you don't mind , what is the transition process ? do i still use the cakewalk center or is there a new center ?

do i need to update old center based software first before the migration ?

thks

Cakewalk under Bandlab's stewardship is miles beyond Sonar in speed, stability, bug repair, and features.

Are you really serious about that ? satbility and speed ? big statment , did you run tests or just a feeling ?

I hope you'll be able to relay this idea to the UVI developers so they can fix their software. Until then I'll just skip everything UVI related.

The problem is not to fix their software , each time when i isolated a bug they killed it in dayz or even hour (back then for motu bpm) ... the problem is just to spot the issue and reproduce it , that why they asked for remote ....

8 minutes ago, Soundwise said:

Yes! And the crash happens immediately. No debugging  message is shown. The plugin is simply blacklisted.

 

If <=2.6.15 works and >2.6.15 doesn't it means something is not right with latter releases. I mean, the 2.6.16 wasn't a huge rewrite of the code, yet they couldn't spot the bug. Maybe less maniacal approach could be more productive. But if it works for them, let it work. Didn't mean to hijack this thread. We need to stop discussing this subject.

pretty sure it's a copy protection thing or some  , the cloud thing made some changes in the way it check security , is you Windows up to date , i had the exact same issues with last Kush and mc dsp and it was system related (plugin get blak listed at scan)

I m still runing a 2017 version lol ... am i missing somehing with bandlab or not yet ?

Thanks for your tips, guys. I've gone through all these steps and then some. Submitted support tickets to UVI. They suggested some silly trouble shooting steps to try, and kept on asking same  questions. Their best idea was to use  a remote connection to my PC, which I'll never allow to anyone, no matter what. Nice people, but not very qualified at what they do. I suspect, the core code is outsourced, while the support crew has a very vague idea of how their product works. I can be wrong, of course! But if the product doesn't work as expected and the support is useless, I'd rather stay away from it.

Hope you'll have lots of fun with UVI based products.

I know those guyz personnaly , the coder is a long time vet and a guy inwill petsonnaly hire if i do some , a pure maniac when it comes to coding , that said the support crew i don t know if it s the sale or not ...

for the remote on your pc , it s all good , i m super peaky bu i did it with waves and i will easily do it with them ... but to each it s approach ....

is it crashing standalone ? 

i tried those yesturday : pure beauty !!

I can't use anything higher than 2.6.15, because they all crash right after launch.

A typical uvi crash is autorisation , each time you load some , it scan for the entire titles , so

1) be sure that integrety is ok (cheked via the center

2) Be sure to have last ilok installed

3) try clean uninsatll and reinstall ..

*

Those are the first steps i would do , i'm just making the upadtes as a type , uvi is working fine as well as falcon , i'm dissapointed by the ui scalling since the images are low resolution then , the letters and scripts are ok but the picetures ect aren't hig rsolution....

I can t falow them financialy ....
