  1. Probably because they bookmarked it.
  2. Well you can feed the phone amp with a TRS to 2x TR. Y cable plugged into the headphone jack. I have a few different sets of phones and I run the headphone volume at 12 o’clock . Sometimes as high as 2 o’clock. Where are you setting the mix control? I have that at 12 o’clock as well. It’s really loud.
  3. If this is in the new Sonar it might be one of those graphics related glitches. You might want to report this directly to staff by submitting a report to them.
  4. Because it became a PITA I put it on consignment at the local music store. I bought a SSL 2. After 6 months of using the SSL2 I was missing the M4. It never sold so I took it back. I just returned to rebooting before I would start recording anything. But other things would randomly go wrong especially if stupid Studio 1 was used. It switches to 44.1 if you open a midi file. I’d force 48 and carry on but now other apps won’t play. So back it went on the shelf and I was then using the Zoom L8. I love the L8 but I kept staring at the M4 and just a week ago I plugged it back in. It has been working perfectly fine since. It was on all day and I recorded something 12 hours later just to test. But for sure my original problem was that I needed USB C ports on my PC. Motu is a very Mac oriented device.
  5. Interesting enough I’ve done absolutely nothing and there is still no new driver but I thought I would try the Motu again and it seems to now work fine?? Possibly a Windows update fixed what it originally broke?? Anyway it’s great to have it working again. Cross my fingers
  6. If you Googled “Is DX still supported “ the top answer is that Microsoft no longer supports DX and due to that most Daw’s are moving away from DX. It is still working but will likely not be future proof. So it is not advisable to use DX in any new projects.
  7. As said. The export dialogue is easy to overwrite any of the default presets. Just change it to your preferences and save it. I overwrite all of them. Ive reverted to using Platinum waiting for things to change from the Membership deal and that is possibly the biggest feature Im missing! You quickly learn how much they improved Cakewalk working with Platinum.
  8. Don’t worry about the Timing Master it should show 1/2. It has nothing to do with the outputs. That is just telling you that Sonar is indeed using the Motu for word clock. I don’t think it’s a great idea to use 3/4 for Windows playback. I have the M4. I can see using 3/4 to drive a headphone amp for studio use as a different cue mix for clients. But if it’s just for you that would be kinda weird. The best feature of the M4 is the Toggles for monitoring that are below each input. I consider the Motu to have the best monitoring system of any of my other 6 interfaces. The headphones using the supplied headphones jack are super loud and it has the mix control to dial in the balance between my input and my Daw playback. I love the ability to turn the monitor off for my Mike when I’m not using it so it’s not bleeding into my playback monitors or headphones. Most interfaces require that you have to turn them all the way down. Now you’ve lost your settings. Anyway unless you’re using the headphone amp for other people I highly recommend you just use the supplied headphone Jack and learn how to operate it using the Monitor button and the Mix control.
  9. I just Googled it and it took me to a Legacy Cakewalk announcement page from June 26 2007. Introducing Studio Instrument Cakewalk, the world's leading developer of powerful and easy to use products for music creation and recording, today releases Cakewalk Studio Instruments, the first easy-to-use and affordable consumer software instrument collection for Mac and PC. Cakewalk Studio Instruments has an estimated street price of $49.99. Cakewalk Studio Instruments is the first dual platform Virtual Instrument collection to be released to the consumer electronics market. Cakewalk Studio instruments provides a high quality Drum Kit, Bass Guitar, Electric Piano, and String Section that can be played stand alone or can compliment popular consumer music software titles such as Cakewalk Music Creator, Apple Garage Band, Magix Music Maker, and SONY ACID Music Studio. Cakewalk has 20 years of experience in designing powerful and easy-to-use audio and MIDI software for musicians at all levels. With Studio Instruments, Cakewalk introduces a virtual instrument collection that is accessible to anyone, not just musicians, through its photo-realistic, animated, and interactive user interface. With point and click ease and professionally recorded patterns, Studio Instruments delivers a simple and fun way for all to make music. And best of all, Cakewalk Studio Instruments sounds amazing because it's driven by Expression Engine, the same industry leading technology found in Cakewalk's professional line of instruments, including the critically acclaimed Dimension pro.
  10. Well I Googled it and that was what it said. Im finding more and more errors in asking Google now because it is using the AI. At least Wikipedia was more accurate. Example when I asked Google who collaborated with Cakewalk to create Session Drummer it answered “XLN Audio created Session Drummer for Cakewalk in 2006. The correct answer is Smart Loops. I’ll look again.!
  11. You can have used Sonar for years ( this is my 20th) and learn something new everyday! I guess that’s how long it would take to memorize the 2,000 pages of the user manual Interesting trivia. The Studio Instrument collection and Session Drummer 2 were introduced to Sonar 6 users in 2006.
  12. But does that move the tempo map? That is why I use Ripple Edit. Cool if it does.
  13. Turn on Ripple Edit- Upper Right of screen To lock to grid turn on Snap. CTRL A to select All Move desired location
  14. This contradicts what you are saying about modern computers. Why do we need to save 80% of space?? Storage is cheap and plentiful. A Wave 48/ 24 file is now the standard format. Even for uploading files to distribution services are asking for this format now. Mp3 and FLAC are not needed in this day and age. And your claim about almost zero CPU. That needs to be qualified with facts.
  15. My statement is what we were told by Staff. And I just confirmed that by Google. It say when asked if DX is still supported- No So tell me who just is it that is supposed to be supporting them? Developers? Microsoft? Steinberg? Cakewalk? In my case I have Vegas and Magix, Then Band in a Box, Sonar and Im told FL Studio and Reaper ?? And it looks like someday down the road Sonar will also ditch it. So it’s a bit foolish to include DX plugins in new projects knowing that in the future they won’t work. And it won’t be Cakewalks choice it is going to be due to a Windows update that will break it. Ya I know, just like people desperately still hanging on to 32 bit and using W7, it will still have a tiny fan base and a wrapper but we have so many other choices now that I don’t think it will be missed by most users.
