  1. I'm caught between "I don't really need any more plugins" and "I want to help"
  2. silly question. My wupwhateva for the h-comp i already own is set to expire next week. Can i just replace it with this one?
  3. the market for products like Soundforge got reduced by: 1)Free Alternatives like Audacity for basic editing. No audacity is not as good, but for a budget conscious musician who is mostly hobbyist, the expense on top of DAW became less and less appealing 2) Competition from specialized products strictly for mastering (ozone, t-racks, etc) and audio repair/processing (Izotope RX) that left people with choices that favored competition 3) The acquisition of Cool Edit Pro and subsequent change to bundled cloud model which left a lot of us with Audition whether we wanted it or not. Until I dumped Adobe for good, a product like Sound Forge seemed redundant even though i preferred it to Audition. 4) Guess on my part, but I think it is easier to market "miracle" compressors and other things that can be pitched as " instant gooderizers" than to make a wave editor sound anything but what it is . I couldn't tell you what the differences were between most of my versions of sound forge over the years because I often followed same workflow. 5) Attempts to do so have fallen flat and younger consumers are less apt to use them. I remember every interface used to come bundled with either a lite version of wavelab or sound forge. Pretty sure my first versions of either were bundled. They don't bother even doing that anymore because This generation doesn't seem interested. They grew up with audacity and don't see much reason to go beyond that. I have never seen one kid in my studio even open a dedicated wave editing app outside of audacity (and even that is rare) or on their phones. Unless some trendy gimmick comes along that can only be done in a product like this comes along, I don't see that changing. I missed Sound Forge, but a big chunk of that was nostalgia. I obviously go along fine without it, but i missed the more efficient workflow when editing single wave files. Maybe hit up the suggestion boxes of developers in places like KVR.
  4. the last couple Sony upgrades were flash sale deals. otherwise i would have skipped 2. nice to have Sound Forge back
  5. Thanks for clearing that up. I skipped 12 and was under impression it was not truly 64 bit. By the time 12 came around, I was not interested in upgrade at price Magix wanted
  6. Now I have to decide if I really need yet another channel strip
  7. I like this strategy. I like the sound of mixbus, but find myself unwilling to go through jumping between DAWs.
  8. Now that the obligatory reminders to search and freebie suggestions are out of the way, feel free to drop your suggestion here: https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/8-feedback-loop/ You never know.
  9. If it doesn't mess with my perpetual license, the groove pass makes it worthwhile

    Akai MPC2

    It's been 99 from Akai the last 5 months or so. ? Worth it with the new update though. The extra plugins alone are worth it.
  11. I have found the satellite sessions program to be a better free collaboration tool since you can drag and drop tracks into your choice of daw: https://mixedinkey.com/satellite/ With that said, the bandlab software is starting to grow on me
  12. For those using MPC Software ( this includes the free MPC Beats: Essential 808 Volume 2 is here! F9 and Akai Pro are back with the greatly anticipated follow up to the highly successful Essential 808 Pack. 808 Essentials Vol. 2 not only pushes the envelopes in deep sonic basses but now takes advantage of the new features inside 2.10 including programmed glide parameters. If you're looking for rich saturated 808s that will rumble any speaker, then add this to your arsenal! https://akaipro.onfastspring.com/808-day-bundle?utm_source=sfmc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=AKAI_808_v2_MPC_Beats_8_2021&utm_term=https%3a%2f%2fakaipro.onfastspring.com%2f808-day-bundle&utm_id=109028&sfmc_id=44435525&utm_content=https%3a%2f%2fakaipro.onfastspring.com%2f808-day-bundle
  13. Signed up for Larry but i have no need for a reverb
  14. good idea. I installed all of his out of curiosity. can't imagine using most of it
  15. you are soooo not good for my GAS recovery.
  16. i downloaded demo for fun and this is a perfect way to introduce students to the relationship of trap and baroque music and how most western music shares common factors.
  17. it's all good. we are just letting you know this is allowed in here. these are mostly just generic sample loops anyway.
  18. 1) tons of non-cakewalk stuff listed here 2) fl can work as plugin in cakewalk 3)some use both 4) All except files can still be used in cakewalk
  19. I ordered for one reason. In Sonar, the zplane timestretch plugin worked as an effect better than most time/pitch shift plugins. Hopefully it works in this version
  20. If larry had come back one day sooner I would have just bought what he was selling. Just not my month lol
