Maxim Chemiakine Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I do not want to use TTS-1, so I was trying to find a download for Square I for Cakewalk in 2020. All I found were just manuals on how to use it. Every tutorial (if I ever need one) even use this without a download link. Not even the official Cakewalk website provides it. Please help.

scook Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 The best help I can offer is the suggestion to forget about Square I. The last update to the plug-in was in 2011. It was never ported to 64bit. There are many good free 64bit alternatives. Take a look at If you prefer not to wade through the thread and all the plug-ins listed, try Surge https://surge-synthesizer.github.io/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxim Chemiakine Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 Okay, thank you. I checked, however, Studio Instruments Suite, and only have TTS-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Studio Instruments Suite is a separate install from the "Install Add-ons..." menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxim Chemiakine Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 I already installed every add-on the moment after I installed Cakewalk. Also, I tried using Surge, but I could not get my wanted results (no reverb, character, etc.), and was also very difficult to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vernon Barnes Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) If I recall correctly this was an old 32 bit DX plugin. DX plugins can not be easily bridged like 32 bit VSTs so getting it working could be more trouble than its worth. You can find free 64 bit VSTis that emulate analog synths in a similar way to square. The Freeware Instruments thread is a good place to look. There is so much it could be overwhelming but try this one for starters.

Mánibranðr Studios Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) If you're willing to spend a bit of cash, these deals are active this month and you get the Reason Lite Rack plugin and Reason 11 Lite DAW for free. (Also check OP for a no-brainer deal!) Edited July 16, 2020 by Freyja Grimaude-Valens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoo Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Except Square I was a VST , so if you point your VST scan (ie. add a folder) to the Square I folder and scan, it'll get picked up and bridged (and I use it and it seems to do so fine, although no guarantees!).

Starship Krupa Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 It sounds like the OP is starting with a download of CbB? The thrust of Maxim's post is kinda odd, as if the only plug-ins there are are ones that either currently ship with Cakewalk or once shipped with SONAR. TTS-1 has very little in common with Square I, TTS-1 is a GM ROMpler and Square I is a subtractive synth. Maxim doesn't want to use the ROMpler, so the next best thing is Square I? My standard recommendation for people who are tired of TTS-1 is first to try the secondary sounds in it, then plunk down $14.99 for a 2-seat license for Xpand!2, which is, as of now, the best deal in software arrangers, IMO. If only there were still software engineers around at SONiVAIR to give it a scalable UI.... Y'know, I know of this cool guy who collects once proud, now dead in the water MI brands.😊If he could get Jordan on loan from Fishman.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
