    Yes, but in addition to extensive controller compatibility, I would recommend Live  with it's live looping and sampling abilities, for actual live use over Cakewalk. So for live and studio use, you might want both.

    Nothing against Cakewalk, but it was not really designed for live use, although some do use it for that. Cakewalk works best as a recording studio, where Live is weak by comparison to a linear DAW, but it can be used that way.  Just a matter of choosing the best tool for the job.

    Yeah, I was talking in terms of a DAW as a studio. Not sure that pushing buttons to trigger samples and loops is my idea of live either, but each to their own.

  2. Meh.

    For me the only thing it really has going for it over anything else is the amount of hardware midi controllers available with proper integration. Cakewalk seems to have really fallen behind the other DAWs in that respect.

  3. I figured this one deserved more of a listen than just on lappy speakers, so I just did that...and wow, it's even better than I thought it was. Bass tone is fab. Love that. Guitars not too shabby either. I also boosted the vox some and that sounds better to me, but you'll have to enlighten me on the first two words because I'm still struggling to make them out however much I boost the vox.

    Detailed crits: (I know you said it's the final mix, but FWIW....)

    I would bring down the cymbal crashes at 3:39 and 3:44 a smidge - as everything else fades away they seem to stay at the same volume which kind of makes them sound like they are even louder. Maybe that's the idea, but they stand out a bit too much for me.

    There's a noise at 4:12 that sounds like it's not meant to be there - sounds a bit like an edit or the mic picking up some keyboard sound. Nit-picking now, but I'd have to get rid of that if it were mine.

    A fine piece of work overall though.

    Believe it or not Firefox and Chrome don't render the page right.

    I believe it. Never used Chrome but that was exactly the reason I stopped using FF a few years ago.

    Here is a good reason to beware of site redirects that were maliciously modified by a hacker. This is exactly how an attacker could lure victims to his exploit kit.

    Here is just ONE recent example of a vulnerability in MS Edge  that was patched for Windows 10 in August 2020. > https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-US/security-guidance/advisory/CVE-2020-1555
     

    Be careful out there!

    Sorry, but I find that hard to believe..........

     

    People actually use MS Edge ?????

     

    Not having that.

  6. Lappy speakers, so make of this what you will, but the vox seem a little buried in places, first couple of lines in particular and at other times it feels like it was mixed by the guitarist if you know what I mean. Good song though.

  7. Coming across well on lappy speakers. I like the style of it very much. If I were in the producers chair I might risk upsetting the guitarist and make the case for ending with the last vocal line at 4:33.

  8. Tonto and The Lone Ranger we’re riding their horses next to some train tracks..

    They stop and hop off their horses. Tonto puts his ear onto the tracks and says “Buffalo come”.

    The Lone Ranger says “how do you know?”.

    Tonto says “ear stuck to track”.
