Mr No Name

Neold Wunderlich is the one.

just get decimort 2 from D16, has an emulation of every sampler made, job done.

I'm fresh out of ideas, someone else may be able to help, ?

Is there an audio interface involved in this set up? or is the midi out of the yamaha 323 sent straight to your pc/ laptop? also it is not normal to be able to have dual monitoring outputs i.e pc and keyboard speakers simultaneously, unless using an interface or a small mixer, you can't do it from cakewalk directly. there maybe some issue with your settings in the softsynth that is not letting the signal pass through without first pressing the pedal ? I'm sure you problem will be solved, there are some quite clever people on here. Regards.

ok, but is it a sustain pedal or a latching on/off pedal? I'd recommend finding the model number to check.

Is it possible your pedal may be a momentary pedal instead of a latched pedal ? or vice versa ?

cakewalk would be measuring DBFS levels, youlean would be measuring measuring LUFS, as mentioned the intersample peaks are obviously measured differently aswell, cakewalk may be more accurate infact. imo. Interesting fact, some mastering engineers say not to worry too much about intersample peaks, some will go as far as +1 over, lets the audio sound more natural after limiting. only spotify streaming people worry about these things, some people just worry about playing the music on PA's or in nightclubs.

kudos for providing this information, best of luck and success with the new iteration of the Sonar software. No doubt it will come in at the No 1 spot in DAW software moving forward.

good morning John, Can you provide a place to find this CBb full installer file you mentioned in your post above. thanks.

the cakewalk program folder which you posted earlier, then install J Bridge instead.

have you tried removing "bitbridge.exe" from the cakewalk folder ?

I have a confession to make. I am a second user account of User 905133, I'm sorry I shouldn't have done it, please forgive me.

Yes, I suppose you could make a brownish type "sample" take your recorded instrument tracks, convert audio to a midi copy, insert the brown noise into midi and underlay / parallel compress with the original audio and blend to taste.

I wouldn't be exactly sure, maybe you could do it on an effect send and add to taste to your channel, I wouldn't be an expert on noise generators, you could possibly use a waveshaper (distortion) and add to taste to the instrument? maybe something like melda waveshaper MB ? You could easily do it with an analogue synth and a filter, but that's less noise and more waves, white noise is probably the wrong sort of noise to use, brown or pink noise would be better. I'm sure you could do it without using a plugin.

ae you speaking of the Klevgrand Fosfat plugin ? After reading this I had a look into it and managed to snag one from a cubase user, It's quite an interesting and useful plug in, quite versatile, I'd recommend it, I found a use for it as a sort of band selective "ditherer" for a mastering thing. I would definately recommend Klevgrand, they make some great plugins, real high quality, their FreeAMP plug is a thing of beauty, its like turning up the gain on a bozak or urei rotary mixer, a mixture of butter and silk. Amazing stuff.

If they end use of Cakewalk DAW, that will be a very daft move imo. it was designed as a free daw to attract people to the bandlab platform, I can see a Native Instruments/Plugin alliance scenario happening. DON'T DO IT

nice stuff, Kraftwerk meets Jean-Michel Jarre.

I believe there was a cut off point for people to d/l the Cbb DAW for the first time, people who had it had to reactivate it, and if they fail to do so won't be able to re download and install it either going forward? that's how I believe the situation is. But the whole thing is slightly ambiguous.

here's a zip file of some nice wav cymbals I acquired this morning in a sample pack, sound very nice, bit less like generated white noise, may be one there that will do the job. https://file.io/Tw1QOBmGKWVY

I have just read in another thread that it is now on a "free subscription" where you have to renew it on a monthly basis, have the people at bandlab nothing better to do than carrot and sticking people into subscription modelling? why don't they just charge an amount of money and let people have it as it is with no more updates as they want to make it obsolete. what will happen when people maybe are travelling or doing some other thing where they forget about daws or laptops for more than a month. not a great strategy imo.

They are giving away a VCA compressor for free if you log into your account, ends on 31st, an emulation of a dbx 160 $150 from April 1st

they don't sound harsh just a bit " non defined"

That makes alot more sense now with the rest of the track in there for context, nice track sounds very good, can see some long haired rocker shaking his hair about to that. cymbals sound a bit washy in places, only thing I would say.

would you mind putting the whole song on for context?
