Hello , I'm not on the latest build yet , but same problem on a pc that IS at another location. If I load a pro channel preset like one of the Gibson acoustic ones ( J2000 ) how do I delete it , if I change my mind and want to go back to the default pro channel modules? I'm sure I overlooked something. Thanks ... mark

Steev, Good job on a hard cover. I think you've convinced me to update to the latest CbB version. My only crit is the vocals seem to be an octave low pulling a lot of energy out of the song. Enjoyed it , very good guitar work . mark

Steve , that was a Fantastic job from "everyone". I'd forgotten just how much I loved Steele Dan music. The vocals were absolutely killer. I had to go and listen to more of her music just to hear for myself it was actually a woman doing the vox. She could probably cover Any song. So much talent. Thanks for posting this. I Really enjoyed it. mark

Very nice. Loved the guitar chords, I used to do almost everything Maj7 sounding . I thought the bass parts were excellent. As Emeraldsoul said , it really needs more of an airy clean sound to bring out the guitars and bass. When you get time check out "Raum" free reverb plugin. It can easily be overused , but it's super airy . A lot could be done with just eq. Keep em coming .. mark

Great Job! Those were some pretty tricky lyrics , well sung , played and mixed. Sounds like you've been pretty busy. Really enjoyed it .. mark

When you export it make sure you don't put a "dot" or "period" anywhere in the song title if you are ..

Very nice and well performed. I would drop all of the drums and backing. Enjoyed it .. mark

Bjorn , Very nice . I actually play Native American flute, they are so touchy you have to be real calm and relaxed just to play them . It's pretty hard for a synth to reproduce the "air" overtones but you can reinforce it with whispering air blows into a mic following the notes. Great job , very calming. mark

Tom , I really like this faster mix. Great job ! All you need now is a video to go with it for you tube and twitter .. It's been a real pleasure working with you . Thanks .. mark

Note: If you ever forget and leave Youlean loudness meter turned on on a pre or master bus , you'll start getting blue screen's when trying to do anything like bounce to clips or freezing . I thought my project was badly corrupted. Lesson learned. ms

Victoria , are you using headphones while recording ? They will give you a better idea of what your pickup sounds like without hearing all the sound directly from the instrument , It's hard with a violin because your ears are only inches from it. Any acoustic instrument will also act like a giant microphone picking up the signal from your speakers and mudding everything up. I have a pickup in my cello and can make it sound pretty good with eq , but a mic is the way to go. I just have to choose the right time to record . mark

I absolutely loved the music and feel of this. I would maybe lose some of right cymbal hits and and try to get a little 808 sizzle in the remaining ones. This was a song that makes you Wan't to sing. Great job . mark

I feel a little better now .. AVG just said I was "Virus Free"

After bouncing to clips , write down the exact position of the start of the midi clip. Drop it into the next daw in the same spot. (same bpm on both daws) You could also put a single midi note on the first measure to be used for alignment then edited out on the next daw. Dragging the end of the clip doesn't have any midi events in it to use for anything. ms

That was great ! yet unsettling .. With the feel of the music , it sounded like a training film for new cyborgs. I believe you could do a complete volume of these. You'd never run out of subject matter . Made me smile .. mark

Sometimes a track "color" change can help , if you are editing certain tracks. I have the same problem on a melodyne screen. ms

Very smooth professional production , and the vocal added just what it needed. keep em coming .

Very nice. I thought the structure of the piano chords was great , I'd push the piano more to the front and have the synth lay under it. I also liked all the vocals. Enjoyed it very much . mark

Steve , I don't have a clue how I got on bandlab. I've never used it. I hope I'm pretty good .. mark

Look in all your Cakewalk project folders. I had one get misplaced once but found it in another folder.

As usual , another one Very well done. Great job on the keys and vocals. I think you really captured the feel of this classic.

Barry , I've also seen this happen when 2 clips get piled on top of each other (if you are working in a single lane) and using sound on sound mode. I have a friend that does this pretty often , he'll just forget to undo the last take before trying it again. I'll grab the clip and move it and find 1 or more clips under it.

I just use the magnifier tool , left click and hold (on the main page) and drag to the right. You can also drag up or down to stretch vertically.

Far out.. I liked the way you put the harmonys in this one. ms

Very cool vibe. It's a lot of fun playing with new stuff. I think main chorus hook was awsome. I found the low end a little overpowering. Couldn't turn it up much . I really liked this song and thought it sounded very progressive. mark
