Canopus

I guess the obvious answer would be SI-Bass Guitar. It comes free with CbB, although it requires a separate installation, being part of the Studio Instruments bundle.

Worked for me three. Thanks!

Look at the track number. It's track number four. If you scroll upwards I'm pretty sure you'll see more.

I agree, start by using TreeSize Free to find out which folders are large enough to bother moving. Also, another thing to watch out for when preparing to use directory junctions, is when you’ve got sample libraries from Steinberg, such as those coming with Cubase, HALion, or Groove Agent. Such sample libraries are stored in files with the extension *.vstsound, which by default are stored somewhere under the folder C:\ProgramData\Steinberg. Use Steinberg Library Manager to move such files around instead of using junctions. For some reason, Steinberg's apps don't seem to acknowledge symbolic links in Windows.

Mm, I don't know. I paid $26 in May for my upgrade from SM2. <proverb-galore>Sure, all good things come to those who wait. But sometimes the early bird catches the worm.</proverb-galore>

Yup, I paid $8 for it five years ago. If only I'd known. But, to be fair, the regular price at that time was $98.

Do you have a Native Instruments account? If so, try to log in to iZotope using your NI credentials. As you may know, they belong to the same owner nowadays.

Sorry for asking the obvious, but that includes verifying that the Controller checkbox in Preferences > MIDI > Playback and Recording | Record is checked?

After the Kontakt horrors this summer, when existing DAW projects suddenly stopped working, I’ve decided to keep my K14U for a very long time. Also, I won’t do updates through Native Access anymore.

Roland Sound Canvas VA will be discontinued on September 1, 2024. As they say on Roland Cloud, Read the full statement here: https://www.rolandcloud.com/home/news/final-notice-sound-canvas-va-is-being-discontinue. Although I’ve got a Roland Sound Canvas SC-88 Pro on my desktop since like forever, I just bought the VA as well. After all, how would I otherwise be able to listen to my old MIDI junk from the nineties when I’m away from home? A Roland Sound Canvas VA Lifetime Key is still available for purchase at JRR Shop for $69, or $62.10 with code GROUP. https://www.jrrshop.com/roland-sound-canvas-va-plugin-lifetime-key

I agree. I remember your similar post from 2021. This has also been a long-standing request from me. Here’s one from 2016. And if I’d been allowed to do so, I would have told you that I also raised that request in the Beta forum just a month ago. There, I even made a picture where I envisioned it like this: But, of course, in order to see the benefit you’d have to work with MIDI. Not everyone does. So, will it ever happen? I’ve kind of lost hope.

The post below is what has been officially said. Read in particular the third paragraph. Also, maybe click the Like or Thanks button while you're there.

EZmix 3 is now available for download in Toontrack Product Manager.

If I were to go back to 2015, I doubt I would ever try to come back. Services, or not.

IBTB.

Installed! I’ve got an 8TB spinner for my samples, so what’s another 2.86GB? All those bytes will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to stop downloading.

I've now read most of those threads and have as a result at least deactivated the setting "Always Use Latest Version of NI Plug-ins" in Komplete Kontrol. But, of course, NI must make sure that you at least get a clear warning in Native Access when an update would make an instrument unusable with the Kontakt version it was once designed for. A short mention of such a requirement change, accessible from some miniscule "Read More..." link, is simply not enough.

I had this problem in July. When trying to open a project containing NI Session Guitarist Sunburst Deluxe, Kontakt 6 first said that it couldn’t find the samples. After a short wtf moment, I pointed it to the correct sample folder and made a rescan. After that, when opening the instrument, Sunburst Deluxe was in Demo mode?! Unfortunately, in Demo mode, you can’t really see the interface and the settings you've tweaked. It’s more like a white blob. After some discussions with NI Support, I realized that Sunburst Deluxe apparently had been "upgraded" so that Kontakt 7 was now required for that instrument. And, sure, I’ve got Kontakt 7 as well, but as I couldn't see the instrument GUI in my project when in Demo mode, I would have to start anew. I could hardly believe it. How could they turn an instrument that once required Kontakt 6 all of a sudden require Kontakt 7? It was just so effing stupid. But I finally got a link from NI Support to the latest version of Sunburst Deluxe that worked with Kontakt 6. As I have K14U, I downloaded every instrument I found on that "upgrade" list, just in case. After downgrading Sunburst Deluxe, I managed to open my project again. Finally, I wrote a note to myself: Never EVER update anything using Native Access; just use it for installing NEW software. Why? Because you won’t be warned when NI raise the Kontakt bar, and thus crash your existing DAW projects.

Sure. The steps 1–4 above will be the same. Then, in the Command window, for Sonar you write: mklink /j "%APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Sonar\Plug-in Menu Layouts" "D:\Templates\Plug-in Menu Layouts" [Enter] After hopefully getting a confirmation that everything went well, for CbB you write: mklink /j "%APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Plug-in Menu Layouts" "D:\Templates\Plug-in Menu Layouts" [Enter]

These are the steps I would recommend: Make sure the latest versions of all your plug-in menu layouts are in your planned target folder. Take a copy of your source plugin folders, as they will have to be deleted. Delete your source Plug-in Menu Layouts folders. Open a command window. Having e.g. Sonar as source/slave and CbB as target/master; write: mklink /j "%APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Sonar\Plug-in Menu Layouts" "%APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Plug-in Menu Layouts" Of course, if you also would like to do the same for, say, SONAR Platinum, you’d run this command one more time with the first path changed to %APPDATA%\Cakewalk\SONAR Platinum\Plug-in Menu Layouts The beauty of this solution is that you can then update your plug-in menu layouts from any of these Cakewalk applications, and the files in the master folder will be updated, and thus be immediately accessible to all your Cakewalk apps.

Yes, they have the same layout. Even better, if you’re using multiple Cakewalk products, you might want to only keep one set of plugin menu layouts. As for me, I have one master folder and then I’ve created symbolic links from the other application locations. More specifically, I have CbB as my master at %APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Plug-in Menu Layouts. I’ve then added symbolic links named “Plug-in Menu Layouts” from %APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Sonar\ and %APPDATA%\Cakewalk\SONAR Platinum\, targeting the same master folder. It works very well.

I think you’re pressing Shift in the wrong context. If you press Shift when opening the cwp file from File Explorer, you will get the "personalize user settings" message. However, if you press Shift when clicking Open inside CbB/Sonar’s File Open dialog, you will be asked which plugins, if any, you want to skip.

What is iOS?
