well, it's better than my guitar playing, and the instrument is better than my electric guitar, a modified firstact i found at goodwill... (i don't use it much once i got a used ibanez 6 string bass that i can lay on my lap to play using the closest frets tot he bridtge for guitar parts and then the normal frets for bass stuff but i can only play one or two strings at at ime. ).

Hmm...I'd never heard of it till now, but: https://forum.modartt.com/viewtopic.php?id=5897

Look up Real Folk Blues by the same group; y ou'll probably like that too. She also worked with Origa for the Ghost In The Shell : Stand Alone Complex theme (one of my favorite pieces), and at least some of the in-series music.

which is why i gave up on sineplayer; every update broke all of my sounds, forcing redownload of gigabytes of them even though there's nothing different about them and the content and everything else is still there...just the updated version can't find it's *** with both hands.... And if I *don't* update, then they randomly decide to change the structure of their server site which somehow causes sineplayer to not be able to find my content, even though its' on MY system, not theirs, and should have nothing to do with their website...but it does. Their fix? Have me install the update, which still breaks all my stuff and forces me to still have to redownload everything. Screw that. So...I'd rather NOT have updates; I'd rather be able to just sit down and make music whenever I feel like it. .

There's a bunch of ways to do backups, but doing a periodic full backup, then regular (frequent) incremental "difference" backups is probably the quickest. The only catch with them is that if you have a total failure, you have to restore the image, then each of the difference backups, to get back to where you were just before the failure. If the difference backups are not the difference from the last backup, but the idfference from the *full* bakcup, then you only need to restore the last difference bakcup after restoring the full one.

Makes me think of Yoko Kanno And The Seatbelts, here playing Tank (theme to cowboy bebop); she's just conducting here rather than playing or singing.

If it's a VST instrument, intalled in your default VST folder, then you can just run a new scan to detect it and it wil then show up in the list of VST (or VST3) instruments, when you choose that in the left column. IF it's not installed in your default VST folder, you'll need to click the VST Configuration options button and add the folder it is installed in to the list, then run a new scan to detect it.

Drag the clip from the track to your desktop (or other Explorer window), and it should work. (does in my ancient version, expect it still should in modern ones?) Note that when you do this it may take it out of the project (dunno why) so then just use Ctrl-Z / undo to put it back. When I put them into a project I don't use import I just drag and drop them where I want them.

No, it'll be ANFSCD.

This thread is confusing....if the licenses will be deactivated so soon, what would be the point of having them at all? (that phrase usually means that software is designed to phone home and then stops working, in my previous experience).

Is it being bent by CC events or by an automation envelope?

I've found some of the AI imagery outputs I've gotten to be wierd and funny (some of them actually disgusting or repellent), and while I found it fun in the beginning, it's grown frustrating because the programs dont accept common terminology required to tell them what output is actually wanted, and because there's no iterative editing capablity, they all just generate a whole new output based on the updated prompt, so it's not possible to just fix the problems with something that is almost perfect; it just starts over every time, always with something wrong. It's still fun to first see what wierdness it generates from a prompt though. Despite having to manually edit the output I get, I still use it for my album "art" and a few other things. Someday I'd love to create a video like you have, for the various stories of my songs, if there's ever time. Which specific tools / sites did you use; I could at least try them out....

What happened just before this started? Was there an install? Update? Etc? Was there an uninstall? Was there a change in environmental conditions? Weather? Power? Hardware? Cabling?

Is that the *only* MIDI device in either category? What are the other devices listed there? Do they have MIDI functions? What do you see if you select "show hidden devices" in the menus up top?

Thanks--that's better info, though I don't want the choirs, just the individual singers like Laurie and at least some of the others in the Seven Solo Voices bundle. (ok, I could *use* the choirs, too, but....)
