Thanks. Tried grace. Decent but workflow is too meh for today's generation. Poise may be an option

Decisions decisions. You all make great points.

I'm trying to make some decisions and i need his deal knowledge.

I remember poise. It is actually free now??

so far in my demo, I noticed two things. Ezbass seems to have custom note mapping unless it's just me Modo sounds fuller. I think i will come down to how valuable I find Toontrack's AI since Modo definitely sounds better

The songwriting aspects of EZbass are kind of impressive. The two instruments sound good. Doe anyone have experience with scaler 2 and ezbass? if scaler 2 functionality is somewhat comparable modo may be better value

that's what makes i tough. just downloaded trial of both

Trying to decide between this and modo bass

I revisit it from time to time. it has improved greatly. Maybe the only DAW that works well across phone and computer. i am thinking of even testing on my xbox too

Nice addition. reminds me a lite version of koala

I'm hoping that bandlab app getting a sampler is a sign one may come to cakewalk

I tried hard to like beatsacape but never found i useful. It's not that is sounded bad. it just had a workflow that was clunky o me

I decided o play with it some more. I think i may be underrated

I understood you were just politely asking for clarification. Thanks again

I'm trying to get myself to like this. i like the idea more than actual practice so far

renaming helped. Thanks!!!

sorry if i came off as snappy. I just have my reasons for attempting this. i have been kinda beta testing with a few advanced students and they like this idea better than alternatives so far

sorry for typo

thanks. no one drive enabled. i am baffled

It's not a very good DAW. great instrument, but horrible DAW. If you are going to keep telling me what you think i should do, instead of helping me, can you let someone interested in helping do so instead? i get that you think i should go another route, and that may be the case, but until i think my options are exhausted I want to at least try. i have had success in other DAWs. I just have this issue in cakewalk

Previously it crashed often from minor things. Now it works ok. it's when i close cakewalk and reopen it that problems occur. It would not shock me if this is an akai issue

I agree there are a few decent ones like Sitala, but i have not found one that has a functional MPC style sampler and workflow. Using other methods is my plan B, but hoping I can get this to work.

All of this. One of the primary reasons people seek freeware is to save money on a desired commercially available sound. It is a tricky maze to navigate, full of potential and tradeoffs. I occasionally find gems that rival commercial software (Surge, which was once commercial is a good example) that are not gateways to paid products but it is truly like hitting the lottery.

I have been seeking a drum and sampling solution within cakewalk for years that did not involve paid software. My reasons for this involve trying to help kids get started who may be low on funds. Cakewalk is a little daunting for young users who are accustomed to seeing Ableton or FL Studio in action, and make no mistake, these are exactly the tools they see their favorite pop songs being created on. However neither are free. MPC beats is free but is limited as a stand alone DAW. As a drum sampler module it has lots of potential and the audio track limit becomes insignificant. Unfortunately, for the beginner setup within DAW can be a little tricky. To ease that process , I have been working on a template that includes individual outputs within cakewalk. It works fine, but when I attempt to open from scratch it hangs when I attempt to select track with Beats. After weeks of frustration, i figured out I can get it to work if I open project in safe mode. needless to say, that is not a workflow i want to give kids if i am trying to create a more intuitive workflow. Anyomne have success creating a project template with Beats?

I still use Z3ta+2. I think it would make a great bundled synth, especially if they make interface resizable
