(2) is neat - I hadn't thought of doing that.

Thanks - I was hoping that's all it was (not additional "sample editing" functions - like you'd get in Sound Forge, say).

Same tools as now though?

Yes if the background colour for odd and even tracks is the same - make (theme editor/colour preferences) the colour of the ellipses the same as the background. If you've gone for different colours, you just have to pick one that is as good as possible.

My guess is it's down to 32/64 bitness (and doesn't support 64 bit dll's). Try - in your case - C:\Windows\SysWow64\user32.dll

Search thr documentation for Track Template.

There's a cakewalk.ini setting that kind of supports this - it adds a cancel button to the plug-in UI, so if you open it and make changes, you can revert to the pre-opened version. It's not on by default because it can mean huge state saves when you open a plug-in which could cause audio glitches. EnablePluginCancelButton=1 It still seems to work in CbB.

And if you need to change levels before plug-ins, there are other plug-ins which can change level (eg. Cakewalk's own Channel Tools, which I believe is now part of the CbB install; or Blue Cat's Gain Suite).

A bit hacky but... - Set up CbB to use the RME - Close CbB, and copy your aud.ini file to aud_rme.ini - Re-open CbB and set it up to use the Apollo - Close CbB and copy aud.ini file to aud_apollo.ini - Create 2 batch/cmd files that copy the relevant aud_***.ini over aud.ini and then launch CbB - Save batch files on desktop and double click to run (obviously with CbB closed!)

I wouldn't go that far, but it does saturate the network bandwidth (my remote desktop session is very slow when it's downloading). But I could run other applications, including BFD3 standalone, during this time.

Upgrading from BFD2 - I've discovered that the license/download manager does at least support pause and resume, so I'll get there...slowly!

Posted on the kvr forum by Drew (from BFD Drums) - this seems to solve it: Open Registry Editor Navigate to: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\BFD Drums\BFD3 Check for these entries: FirstRun, fxp2inm_migration, and NeedScan If you don’t have them all, create them. They should all be string types. Set FirstRun to ‘No’ without quotes. Set fxp2inm_migration to ‘migrated’ without quotes. Set ‘NeedScan’ to ‘no’ without quotes. This will stop BFD from nagging you about copying across old files.

Search help for quantise/quantize.

I wish ? My latest: install my free library (Crush), fire up bfd3 standalone and it gets picked up and runs fine. Add bfd 1 folder to scan...finds the expansion packs OK (eventually!) but Crush data has been lost.

Expansion packs seem to be fine - it's core BFD/BFD2 content that isn't. YMMV of course. And you can still use BFD/BFD2...it doesn't replace them.

And does anyone know if there's a way to break up the download of the core content (it'll take about a day to do it in one go here!)?

If you go to your products page, there should be a bit at the top about redeem code/voucher.

I've just downloaded and installed my freebie pack - does anyone else find rescanning takes an age and "hangs" the application? It's been churning away for an hour now (6/12 core 3.7GHz machine, SSD and NVMe drives, 32GB RAM, so no slouch even if not absolutely cutting edge).

Nope - "There was a problem copying your BFD documents". Every single time (as you say).

Ditto (ish): I get some/all of the BFD 1/2 packs, but none of the core BFD 1/2 content. Somewhat irritating, so if anyone has a suggestion... The BFD 1/2 serial numbers don't authorise in the new license manager, so I'm stumped.

It's also a SynthEdit synth, and these can be problematic (especially ones using older SE toolkits) - from memory, they especially didn't like having "Use Multiprocessing Engine" enabled. So I'd first suggest turning that off: If that solves it, then you're probably out of luck as you don't want to turn this off in general, and looking for a replacement is probably your best bet.

You can't automate track (input) gain though.

? Thanks - Lead is still my go-to theme (with my own track colours overlaid). It just, well, works!

Not that I'm hassling (honest!) but will you be updating to 2021.04?

I dabbled with Forth about then too - I don't think I ever achieved anything of note in it!
