Hello Sven-- I've used UAD plugins in CW for many years without any scanning issues. My biggest task is removing all of the listed UAD plug-ins that I haven't purchased, but that's only a short-term inconvenience that's easy to remedy. (Now WAVES plugins is a whole different story!) There might be something else going on with your DAW--but it's not a UAD or compatibility issue.

Hey Group-- I have to chime in here because I had an experience that I think is worth mentioning. I submitted my work for online evaluation and heard the critiques of it in real-time. Ouch, yes, but helpful. You see, I had recorded the acoustic position of my Godin LGXT electric guitar which uses saddle pickups. They are top-of-the-line, but multiple (lots) of people listening to the track noticed it was a DI and not a mic'd acoustic and the responses were unfavorable. One comment was that a $100 acoustic guitar mic'd would sound better than acoustic saddle pickups using DI. Lesson learned, and I now mic my acoustic guitar. I also want to add (and if someone mentioned this I missed it) that mic placement is important too. As a noob, I thought I wanted that mic right in front of the sound hole. Not so much. That's where all the noise and thuds come from. You want it near the hole, but not right in front of it. There are many articles on mic placement, but this one is fairly comprehensive overall. Keep trying! None of us sounded great doing anything at first--I promise you that. In fact, I would say that if many of us could go back and listen to our first few works, we would say they suck by today's standards, and probably the standard of the day when they were recorded. That's how you get better. You try new stuff.

Thanks!

Hello Group I have a midi high hat where I manually went in and changed each note's velocity to make it sound human. Now I want to reduce each note's velocity by the same amount but I want each note to maintain its velocity in relation to the other notes. As an example, if the hi hat notes are 100, 90, 95 and I want to drop them all by 5 and end up with 95, 85, 90. How's that done? Thanks, Stephen

Merry Christmas Everyone! ?

Yeah, I'm only adding completely mastered audio tracks to Vegas. Not sure if you're adding tracks to the vid in Cakewalk, but you might want to look into a current version of Sound Forge. It handles multi- tracks and unless I'm mistaken, can integrate into Vegas as your audio editor. http://forum-archive.magix.info/showmessage.asp?messageid=907690

The project load and inspirational quotes.

Yeah, and we're waiting on the 3D too! I want those instrument icons to come out and smack ma! ?

I'm not sure if this is expected, but when I added the quotes file it reset my display timeout to 10 seconds. I put it back where I had it and now it's all good.

lol, you said Win98! Thanks!

Hello Group Thinking of asking for W10 for Christmas. Anyone done an in-place upgrade from 7 to 10 and everything was cool with your CW projects? Support ending and not being able to upgrade my video software are my main reasons. Thanks!

Ah, I armed the wrong track. Gotcha!

I did end up using a patch from AAS Plastic Pop collection. OT, but it's really strange that when I record that synth, it's recording an audio file and not a midi file. I typically like to record in midi for editing and a/b patches. What did I do wrong there?

That's the one I have. The Plastic Pop collection. I'll look through it again. Thanks!

Awesome, thanks. I have AAS, but not that patch. I'll look for it.

Hello-- I'm referring to the high range key you hear playing a lead melody right when the song starts. I also know enough about music video production to know you can't rely on what instrument's being "played" in the video to actually be the instrument in the recording. I just thought a fan or someone with the actual synth might know. I like the sound. I had something similar with a Korg Poly 800 II back in the day.

I almost bought me something like this before BL took over. The thing is, as new functions are introduced into the software, your keyboard shortcut labels become obsolete. Logitech = https://logickeyboard.com/shop/cakewalk-sonar-editing-pc-keyboards-992c1.html

?? of course. Start/stop the play head.

Hello-- Cage the Elephant has a track out now that I'd like to ID the New Wave sounding keyboard patch that's used throughout the track. The song is here. = Ideas? Thanks!

I printed out the shortcuts and have a laminated copy at my workstation. These days I rarely refer to it, but it's a nice reference if I'm looking for something I don't typically use.

@Noel Borthwick Yes, it always has done that in the past, but now it doesn't disappear. Any thoughts?

I followed these instructions and added the new messages--and they work great. Now I have an issue that just started appearing. After the project loads, the inspiration message pop-up never disappears like it used to. I have to x out of it. Does anyone else see this?

Really? Ok, that makes sense. I'll try it again. Have to say I prefer seeing the line. Thanks

Nope. I mentioned it's not the current line draw tool.

@Noel Borthwick Do you know what tool/option I'm referring to?
