Have you tried to export with all the plugins disabled, then if that works fine, to enable 1 or 2 plugins then export repeat until you find which plugin is the issue?

I have never felt a need to buy it since there's plugins that replicate it via scripts in Reaper, then I can import the midi files created in Reaper into Cakewalk, because I have several Cakewalk plugins that only work in Cakewalk that I still use to this day!

I am looking for methods, techniques, and VST plugins that can reverse the effect. I also want to know how much bit crushed effect can be reduced.

Thanks I will take a look at it.

I'm looking for a frequency smoothing technique, opposite of bit crushing. Any ideas?

I thought about this, but I've already got FUSER.

What can it do that most other metering plugins can't do?

Although, I have numerous plugins, I will still buy samples from https://www.indiginus.com/ and other instruments. Those you can never really have enough of... Different varieties of instruments!

You know...CC Larry jumped off this train long ago!

I wouldn't run any VM inside windows 11 due to how resource heavy windows 11 is. Proxmox is made for this and ia the least resource heavy and it has the ability to do PASS-THRU with GPU and USB, among others. If I run a windows 10 VM on it, I can protect it with Proxmox security and firewall. To the world, windows 10 would appear as a Linux computer. I'm pretty well versed in Linux. I am not worried about a little overhead. The positives outweigh the negatives. Doing this would allow me to upgrade easier, where all I have to do is move the VM to the new computer and I would never have to worry about vendor issues and take advantages of new technologies. I plan to have multiple VMs, one for gaming, one for programming, one for the DAW. This will increase performance of the VMs because the softwares are not competing with one another. [My Positives of Proxmox] - Seamless Switching: Quickly suspend and resume VMs without needing to reboot. - Complete Isolation: Gaming, DAW, and programming workflows are fully isolated, preventing software conflicts. - High Performance: My new system's hardware is well-suited for virtualization. - GPU Passthrough: I have a Dedicated GPU for gaming and integrated GPU for DAW ensures near-native performance. - Low-Latency Audio: Real-time kernel and proper tuning can achieve low-latency for singing and DAW tasks. - Flexibility: Allows me to add new VMs for additional workflows like video editing or testing setups. - Portability: VM migration between systems (e.g., desktop to laptop) is straightforward. - Backup and Snapshots: Built-in snapshot feature is like a backup system onhand. You can install new plugins, and if you don't like them, you can revert back super easy! - Future Scalability: Easily scale workflows and add resources as needed. - Security: Virtualized environments improve isolation and reduce risks of cross-environment vulnerabilities. [Remaining Negatives of Proxmox for Your Use Case] - Compatibility Concerns: Some games (World of Warcraft, World of Tanks, Steam games) may have issues with anti-cheat systems in virtualized environments. - Plugin Licensing: Certain DAW plugins may detect virtualization and cause licensing issues. I'm just curious if anyone has had issues with any vendor putting their plugins on any windows VM?

I'm thinking of moving all my plugins into a windows 10 VM on top of proxmox. Currently, I've noticed how buggy windows 11 pro is with plugins and my DAW. nearly crashing it, but on my old computer with windows 10, works flawlessly! So .. Anyone know vendors I'll have issues with moving them into a windows 10 VM?

I don't touch any Melda Productions plugins of version 17+ due to Virus Total detecting it being maleware due to their new installer. I've got the latest 16 version, and that's where I plan to stay.

I avoid any plugins that require iLok account

Is it possible to install in VMWARE then that makes it portable?

I worry about the USB ilok becoming corrupt and losing the license.
