Thanks so much for the listen and comment! Hope you can get your SC issues resolved :)

Thanks Mark, appreciate it my friend!!

Thanks Kevin, appreciate the listen and feedback!

Thanks so much my friend!

Hey Wookie, thanks for the listen and feedback! Good ear and good call on the kick drum! One of the challenges I've experienced with this type of collaboration production/mixing is that though many of these players are really good, they're all over the map on their recording skill. Some of them make really clean and balanced tracks for the project, and others not as much. Craig, this particular drummer, somehow or other records his acoustic drum kit, and just puts a complete WAV file in the project without the parts broken out. His recording quality is decent but not great, and the complete kit baked-in track makes it a bit harder to correct deficiencies, as you can imagine! I took a critical listen though, and I think the drums can definitely be improved, and definitely the lower end kick (cymbal crashes seem kind of harsh too). I'm going to throw on a Sonitus Multi-Band and maybe TDR Nova as well, and see if I can isolate and boost some of that low end without getting muddy. Or maybe Drum Replacer, I've never really utilized that. Thanks again my friend!

**UPDATED- remixed to try to bring out drum kick, as suggested by Wookie. Also tried to tame cymbal crashes a bit. Had a blast collaborating with some cohorts from Bandlab to create this version of the Jimi Hendrix classic Little Wing! This rendition is based on the Eric Clapton/Sheryl Crow live cover version. Off the charts effort by a truly international cast in putting this together: Fabian (Argentina)- Bass; Ross M (Australia)- Guitar; Craig (US)- Drums; Fiz (Italy)- Sax; Tone (Norway)- Female Vocals. I am on Vocals/Organ/Electric Piano/Synth/Mix. For workflow, I recorded all my parts in Calewalk by BandLab, and posted them along with a full scratch track in a project on BandLab. The collaborators then posted their individual parts in the project, either recorded directly on BandLab or in their own DAW and uploaded. I then downloaded their finished parts and brought back into CbB to mix and master.

From what you're describing, the problem is that you need to output your midi track to the Korg module. The midi is going in via USB from your keyboard, but then needs to be outputted to the sound module you're wanting to trigger the desired sounds from (just like you output a simple instrument track to a desired VSTi). If the Korg module doesn't have USB, then you would need to run a 5 pin cable via a midi out connection from your computer (either on your interface or a midi adapter with drivers installed) to midi in on the Korg. Then run audio cables from the L/R main outs on the Korg module into a stereo pair on the interface (definitely want your synths in stereo!). If your interface has direct monitoring, definitely use that and you will be able to hear and record with zero latency! Otherwise, set up an audio track with input set to the stereo pair and activate input monitoring (you will need to deal with latency then)

Scrap the drum map, honestly that is a remnant from the earlier days of MIDI before combined audio/midi VSTi's. To learn how to do what you're wanting, download a newer free drum instrument like Stephen Slate Drums. With that, you can easily route to separate outputs, which you can then assign to individual audio tracks in CW. It has a built-in mixer, and also the ability to easily map an external kit to the instrument or rearrange the assignments on a keyboard to your liking. There are numerous other choices out there that also do this (SI Drums doesn't), but Slate is a good free one to learn on, and it sounds great!

Hey, welcome to Cakewalk! Very doubtful you're going to find anything that's current version specific. Any video from within the last few years that's well done should be adequate for basic set up. What is it that you're needing that's missing or different on the video? The Creative Sauce videos are a bit older but still regularly used by beginners for getting started (also check out the Creative Sauce Cakewalk group on Facebook). Also another bit newer video that someone recommended by Audio Tech for getting started.

Very well done Wookie, love the sound design! The building synth textures, along with the pulsing rhythm, makes for a very cool and hypnotic effect. Great tribute to Oberheim!

Very cool sound design, Bjorn! The dark and evocative moods and textures really capture your subject well. Goes well with the video too. Great execution on this!! 👏👏🎶🎶🎶

Thanks so much for the listen and feedback! Yes, the cash register sound is the intro from Money. At the beginning of the DSOTM album, leading into Breathe, they have this kind of mashup/montage called Speak to Me, and it's included as part of that. As I mentioned, I ripped that intro part from the original, didn't reproduce that, just added to it and enhanced it a bit.

Really cool vibe, very well done

Splendid work, enjoyed this Bjorn!!
