In the photo below, in the blue circle on top, you can see that there is nothing to allow me to insert something like Toontrack SD3 or EZBass or any other MIDI instrument. in the blue circle on bottom, I right clicked on it to see if I could insert it that way. No. I can't insert any MIDI instruments. If I reinstall, I would have to uninstall CbB, and wouldn't I lose all the plugins and have to install them all over again? How would that work? (Hope I don't have to.)

I just upgraded to the last version of CbB. And when I went to insert a synth, there is nothing there to allow me to insert Toontrack's SD3 or any other synth. It used to be that when you clicked on Insert, you had an option to find the synth or instrument you wanted to insert. Not anymore. How do you do it in this final version ?

I tried the VX64, and it clicks and pops. So I won't be using it. Thanks!

Thanks, Lord Tim!

I think there are other things I can use. If it's a little unstable at times, it's not worth using, to me. Thanks!

Good to know, Johnny. Thanks!

Great, thanks!

I was watching this guy on youtube, and he had some plugins in his Pro Channel that I can't find. I'm on the latest version of CbB. The plugins were: VX 64 Vocal Strip, the SSL EV2 Channel Stereo, the Pui EPQ1A, and some others. I looked under modules, but I can't find them. At 7:47 in the video you can see these plugins. I don't know how to add them onto the Pro Channel.

Great, thanks!

Well, I did. But I don't understand something (and probably a lot of other things once I start using it). In the photo below I circled the areas that are blank. What's supposed to be there?

If I will not be able to use my current version, then I will have to update. I hope I like it Thanks, JohnnyV!

Something I'm not quite understanding. When the new Cakewalk Sonar comes out soon, I know the updated free version will continue to function. But what I am unclear about are older versions. I have not updated in about 2-3 years, because the old CbB works really well for me with no issues as is. And "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." My question is, will the older versions cease to work when the last update is given? Will only the newest version work? Or will the older versions work but just not have support?

I found the download at Plugin Boutique, reinstalled it, and it works.

I dont know how to delete a thread. I think I may know how to reinstall it.

I recently purchased the SSL X-ValveComp. It requires an iLok account, which I have. I installed it, and it's in my iLok account and activated. When I scanned my plugins, it's not in there. I have the SSL folder in my Common Files, but the plugin is not in the folder. I contacted Solid State Logic, but they weren't helpful. I don't know how to uninstall and reinstall with iLok, so I don't know what to do at this point. Suggestions would be appreciated.

Update: I bought the Slate VSX and got panels to make the room smaller. Both made a big difference. When I checked my mix through VSX, I heard mistakes. I also heard reference tracks better so have been able get my mixes sounding better, closer to the reference tracks. And when I listen to the songs through my monitors, the panels (I put blankets over them) bring the songs closer (if that makes sense) because the sound doesn't travel so far to the back of the room. Great suggestions in here. These things may not be for everyone, but they really helped me. ?

Good to know. Thanks!

I think I'll go with Slate VSX. I have a headphone amp that I like, so that shouldn't be a problem. I will check out your articles. Thanks!

Looking into Slate VSX and Sonarworks. Anyone have a preference? From what I see, Slate VSX seems pretty simple. Reviews are good.

Great advice. Thanks, Craig!

I plan on covering the panels with some kind of blanket.

I just ordered these exact ones ?

I hear ya'. You may not agree, but I consider my Adam Audio A7v monitors to be very good, as well as my Avantone CLA 10's. I have received a lot of good advice here and am going through all of it. Thanks

That's what I do best. ?

I dont know how to do that, since it's square. I put bookshelves on the back wall to make it more rectangular. Other than doing that, I wouldn't know what else to do.
