Thanks for listening and commenting. I think it destroyed my cakewalk update attempt ha. So dealing with that now...

I been dealing with a mess, following some suggestions on the forum, and finally got to the stage to download from bandlab assistant newest version, and the progress says 0 but i do find the file Cakewalk_by_BandLab_Update_Setup_26.09.0.006.exe is being downloaded in the roaming folder. Can someone tell me the size this file is supposed to be when it is done ? I have no idea when it is done since the progress says 0. Once it said it was corrupted so trying again. Thanks!

So I was messing around with this old (acoustic guitar origin) song to try to learn and explore my purchase of Komplete Kontakt etc and well I could probably do that for the next year. I didn't wind up using much from NI but sure did try lots of stuff. The song has a few moods to it, I can relate. This is a photo I took of a bridge over the mighty Susquehanna River in Harrisburg PA taken at dusk with a little color added. I say mighty cause now that I live in the west, the nearest river to me is the Aqua Fria, which is perennial here above ground at about the width of a big step unless full of monsoon rushing waters. I look forward to working on something new after this long experimenting ! thanks for checking it out, treesha

Not sure, but do you mean note assignment mode? "Now click the wrench (spanner) icon next to the toolbox of the Note Editor to activate Note Assignment Mode. The background in the Note Editor changes color to show that you are no longer in normal Edit Mode but have switched to Note Assignment Mode." There you can access potential notes....."Represented by outlines (or “hollow silhouettes”), they lie at pitches where Melodyne thought about drawing a regular, solid blob, but decided in the end to place this somewhere else, leaving the silhouette as a hint at to what might be a possible alternative for that particular note."

Not on my computer right now but i think theres an option in the settings something like note editor - monitor blobs

Im on 5 but not the latest cbb yet. Win 10 . When i select an audio clip with melodyne on it and drag it to empty midi track to convert to midi, every piece of audio on every track in the same area of the selected clip goes into the midi track as midi along with the one clip i wanted to convert. Maybe im selecting the clip i want wrong ? To workaround i copy the clip to beyond the ending of the song and convert there so no other unwanted tracks are included. Then drag it to the location in the song i want it. I havent had the location issues above i usually loop cakewalk to the spot i want to edit before applying melodyne so i get there right.

Izotope had a bunch for download and the reasons they were being suggested as references not long ago. I don’t have a link but google or izotope site should find them

So I got curious enough to try to download the rar file from google drive where it was put for me, hoping I could download it, and it is hopeless. It is too big. So I guess I can't get those last 3 big files until I can take my laptop to a wifi at some unknown time in the future when the virus is not so bad here. So I'm done for now...

Yeah i’ m frustrated too. My replacement hard drive is making the same errors as the first. Great. One month later.. Contacted support again. As for our bad internet and trying to get the products surprisingly not on the drives we purchased to avoid huge downloads.. My attempt will be .... to be online with my bad internet, using native access, and point it to the uzipped rar. This assumes i can even download it on my bad internet because it is still large even in rar form. Honestly i have spent much time babysitting the smaller downloads and trying to get the faulty drive issues sorted out I haven’t felt like trying to download the rar yet but i will soon. I can let u know how it goes if i get it. If i wasn’t in corona infested area i would go to wifi as i normally would for something too big for home internet. My music computer is a laptop.

I too bought the k12 hard drive because of my poor internet and being unwilling to go to a wifi at the moment, and was really disappointed not everything was on it. Plus it had a problem and i just got a replacement but checked and the files are identical so still not all the products on it. Yeah disappointing. I had someone install my 2nd native access on their good internet computer then rar that download via google drive. Its still big, haven’t tried to get that from google yet but on ni forum was told a rar is ok after unzipping and just to point to it for the install. I don’t want a refund, i got all but 3 products i think in slow motion downloads or off the drive. But yeah, disappointed it wasn’t all on the drive.

Thanks Tom your appreciation got me mesmeric ( i had to look it up). Thats my favorite part. I did use scheps omni on the drums a cenzo preset. I just listened on my phone vs monitors and agree the drums could be punchier. I haven’t been checking on different systems, good reminder. Appreciate the listen and feedback. Mesmeric will stay with me. Not sure i can top that but will keep trying!

Ha yes t i guess i made up a genre. Glad you were entertained. .bjornpdx i don’t know about middle eastern scales but probably would like them. I spent quite a lot of time on this one subtracting vs doing the tracks. I know it is pretty full ! Thanks for listening and the comments !

I did recently ask if an upgrade was possible and got a reply with a discount but didn’t get it at this point. Just got komplete and thats got my attention at the moment.

An ambient, washy piece with a bit of turmoil

Great work. all the elements are well done and the mix is great too. The song has a mood and vibe consistent throughout, between beauty and sadness, very nice.

https://youtu.be/XRNfGS8HnKo Hope all is well, maybe we should get Joe from impractical jokers on the case

What version? I havent seen this using studio 5 but not on most recent cakewalk update, still on previous one.

Thanks! I do think of music as my playtime (usually ha) and it was fun to do.

Hi Rob, thanks for listening and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I think the drums are ok too, but I know I don't spend much time with drums and don't get creative with them, and in other styles that I write better drums would be a good move. Working on an instrumental piece now and learning komplete 12 and messing around with those drums so maybe that will be inspirational. I'm just not naturally drum inclined. I have sat at drum sets before and wondered how do drummers do what they do? thanks again

Tascam 2x2 meets my needs and i havent had any issues using it with cakewalk

Sounds great. I like your choice of sounds and their effects. Nice movements thru levels of tension and repetition of themes. Good Luck !

Try c:\programfiles\commonfiled\nativeinstruments Thats where mine were installed

Great song ! and you might be leadfoot but the fingers are flying ! I was distracted by what I think is rhythm guitar which sounds to me a bit too prominent and a little noisy, and has a way of interfering with your voice in the early sections, at the end sections it seems more balanced to me and I think sounds better then. Yes on louder vocals and yes on louder drums. Impressive work all around.

Thanks tom and Andy, I feel welcome ! Maybe you missed it tom because of the eclipse? As we all know is was "a little" work on the drums ha so I can try to be more creative and actually do some bigger work on them. I just got and am working to understand Kontakt 12, drum stuff in there that might help, no idea cause this program is so big and already needed support 2x ! so spending time on this at the moment. ugh. Thanks for the listens and comments !

Great first project ! Can we get to the end of the pandemic please ? In the deals section there is a post for ozone elements free. If you don't have it check it out. It has some tools you might like.
