Interesting . That’s the first sound pack ever for Lounge Lizard. I never thought I’d see one. And it’s not even visible at AAS' site yet.

The grid resolution is determined by your Snap settings. You now seem to have Snap set to 1/8 Note so if you change that to for instance 1/16 or 1/32 in the Snap module, the grid lines will display accordingly. Extra, extra!

A week ago I also received a strange mail confirming a purchase I did in 2018, but the day after 8DIO support sent out a new mail saying the first mail had been sent out by mistake due to a system update.

UVI has just made 3.0.21 available for Windows as well in UVI Portal. I can't find any release notes, but one thing that I'm sure of is that a bug in the Windows version of 3.0.20 has been fixed. Each time you changed presets in UVI Workstation 3.0.20 there was a pretty annoying Windows system message sound being heard. I just downloaded and installed 3.0.21 and the annoying sound is definitely no more.

Is this the proper time and place to bring cow abduction to the agenda?

Your wait is over. Lead has now been updated to 2021.04 build 175, and that goes for Gran Vista and Carbon as well. Enjoy!

A modification made to 2021.04 build 175 rendered the buttons in the Meter/Key view practically invisible in dark custom themes. This has now been fixed in the theme Lead. See below, before and after. The theme can be downloaded from the links supplied in the first post. There you will also find a link to the release history.

Owning the Modelling Collection, I upgraded to Chromaphone 3, Ultra Analog VA-3 and String Studio VS-3 late last year and paid $39 for each upgrade, or a total of $117. And now five months later I could apparently have got them all, as well as Multiphonics CV-1, for $69. Nice move, AAS. But of course, most people will notice the business model and never bother to upgrade anything AAS until some rock-bottom sale eventually comes along. It might be sooner than you’d think. Maybe AAS is making their money on sound packs and are selling their synths for petty cash just to keep that market going. Just like razors and razor blades.

No, sorry. I’m using Kontakt almost exclusively. Great that you got it working.

That should come as no surprise. If Vienna is run as a stand-alone executable and has focus, of course it will receive all keystrokes. That's how every Windows application works. Are you sure you're running Vienna as a VST and not as a stand-alone executable? It shouldn't be possible for CbB to hide a plug-in that has been instantiated from within the application.

Well, neither do Cakewalk. It doesn’t matter whether the VST has focus or not. The only way to have the VST catch a spacebar key-stroke is to enable the option Give All Keystrokes to Plugin-in in the VST window. Otherwise, and of course under the condition that you haven't remapped the spacebar in Preferences > Customization > Keyboard Shortcuts, it will trigger the Play/Pause function in CbB.

I think the response would have been different if you’d actually asked for help trying to solve your specific problems. This is actually a very helpful forum with many knowledgeable people. Even the developers stop by almost daily. Having said that, this is a forum for the Windows application Cakewalk by BandLab (formally SONAR), and not the web based BandLab DAW. It’s sad that you didn’t stay for a bit longer as I’m sure your problems would eventually have been solved. Still, if you would change your mind I'm sure that a lot of people here would help you out.

I have both Insight and Insight 2 but a quick run-through of those versions works as expected on CbB 2021-04 both build 145 and build 147. Maybe there’s some problem with your Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables?

I’ve had Cthulhu for a while but never used it much. I had a listen to this Cthulhu Premier preset bundle but came to the conclusion that it weren’t for me. However, it all inspired me to insert an instance of Cthulhu in a project and connect it to Arturia Pigments and then in another project to VI Labs TrueKeys American. And it was actually a lot of fun. I think I’ll have to dig deeper into Cthulhu. Heck, I might even open the manual.

Oh shoot, you beat me by 4 GB. I’ve only got 226 GB in my UVISoundBanks folder so I guess I have to buy some more.

Here’s a similar thread which I answered in some detail about a year ago. In that case the question was related to a Kontakt library called Vintage Organs, but the same concept applies to all Kontakt libraries. Click on the grey arrow in the upper-right corner below and you will be taken to the correct post.

In the image you supplied the ProChannel tab is almost invisible, so there's most likely some image size issue in this theme update.

Yes, I can see that as well, but only if measure 1:01 is not visible in the PRV. If measure 1:01 is visible in the PRV the snapping seems to work as expected regardless if the cursor is hovering over the actual PRV or over the PRV ruler. However, if I scroll slightly to the right so that measure 1:01 disappears out of sight, the aim assist line seems to be offset when the cursor is placed over the ruler.

You select double-click behaviour in Track View’s Options menu. If you change from Clip Properties to Loop Construction View, CbB will display the clip’s waveform.

Yeah, it looks like Tassman’s long-lost son. And he’s been taking steroids.

Those were only partial links, added to explain the concept of mixed content, and not links to the actual documentation.

Don’t shoot the messenger. I just explained why this happens and also why some people don't have this problem.

There seems to be a problem with mixed content on https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation. Although the protocol used is https, some (all?) of the images to be displayed on those pages are fetched from http://static.cakewalk.com. Having parts of the web page being fetched through the unsecure http protocol is regarded as unsafe by both Chrome and Edge, so those images won’t be displayed. BandLab thus needs to encrypt all static content as well for this issue to be solved. While waiting for that to happen, one could use Firefox. It will give a warning in the address bar, but still show the images. At least, that's how it works for me.

You will find the file Boom_x64.dll wherever you chose to install it (there is to my knowledge no VST3 version available). So my best advice would be for you to search for that file on your drive(s) and once found make sure that the path is included in Edit > Preferences > File > VST Settings | VST Scan Paths. If it's an old 32-bit plug-in, the file name will be something different. As a side note, the boom.big file is most likely only a container for the samples. Also, Boom is no longer an Avid product but owned by AIR Music Technology.
