  1. You don't have the Master Clock Source set to something like SPDIF, do you?
  2. Or uae Preferences\Color to change clip colours without needing to dive into the Theme Editor.
  3. Not a great example, but you may want to include it in a template and select the FX bus on a per project basis. But, more than that, it's consistency - should a track be deleted if you change its output to None? Clearly not. So sends should behave in the same way. We have a delete option, so a second way (that is inconsistent) shouldn't be added.
  4. You can't do it per input though, just per stereo pair. It's OK as is, but not perfect (personally I've never had a problem to name mine things like "Instrument/Mic" and "translate" in my head to "Instrument = left, Mic = right").
  5. Not really as you may want to disable the send (I know, there's a manual disable button too) and then re-enable by moving it to a different destination. It would be too easy to send to none and delete by accident.
  6. Many years ago, the Waves plugin demos checked the system time to see if the demo period had expired. Resetting it to, say, 1 second after you last used one of them before running them again (and then restoring if necessary) goosed them effectively permanently. Of course, this was in the days before accurate timestamps on ecommerce sites and the like were so important so it wasn't so much of a big deal to have the "wrong" time on your clock.
  7. To "solve" the PC reset, create a blank PC and save it as a preset (and then load it). Useful generally, although a "Reset" button wouldn't go amiss anyway.
  8. Loop Construction View? Not perfect, but with a bit of lateral thinking, you can do some of this.
  9. I have one plugin that crashes like this too - in your case, it's the VST3 listed first. You can zip the dmp file quite well, but this should help - also worth contacting the plugin's author. If you can, try a VST2 version of it too.
  10. Can the CbB scanner be run with its current directory set to, say, %temp% so this or similar can't (famous last words!) happen? I know you can for shortcuts and I have when launching an external exe from a . NET application (ProcessStartInfo.WorkingDirectory).
  11. If one is DOA, that could be the culprit - if you can't get to it physically to unplug, try disabling it in the BIOS if you can.
  12. Suggestion: untick "Use MMCSS" in Cakewalk's preferences. There is some - ahem - disagreement about whether the driver or application should control use of MMCSS (Steinberg, MOTU and - from memory - RME all say it should be the driver, so I'd argue this is correct), and I wonder if there's some conflict here. It's only a guess mind!
  13. Remember also that plugins can be excluded, which this doesn't take into account: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\ExcludedPlugIns CLSIDs are used.
  14. Add/edit the following to aud.ini: [Video] VideoEngine=0
  15. I do agree it's over the top (you'd not necessarily want to sandbox every single plugin!), but the principle is correct, no? If not, then where is it wrong?
  16. Interesting comments on this from the developers of Ardour: https://ardour.org/plugins-in-process.html
  17. To me, this sounds like you have the tracks going to 2 destinations simulataneously (master and direct to the hardware), and if the master is then also going to the hardware output, then potentially you are going to get some phasing (you shouldn't, but there may be something else afoot here) which will affect the sound quality in the way you describe. I may be misunderstanding your routing however.
  18. 4 - 0.5 = 3.5dB; 4 + 0.5 = 4.5dB. Seems to make sense to me.
  19. It overrides if and only if the setting in Preferences isn't the default - it's not obvious (not totally illogical, but not exactly clear, since you don't know a colour is set to the default without clicking the Default button!).
  20. And thanks to this thread and both of you, I can at least now run a dark PRV myself (no wonder I've never liked most people's themese :-)).
