  1. Do have an un-modified copy of that frozen project somewhere? That would probably be a good one for the Bakers to look at.
  2. Yes. Inadvertently left out to click "with the Comp tool" as mentioned in the other post.
  3. This sounds like expected behavior when the track's Edit Filter is set to Clips. Haven't double-checked the beahvior, but make sure the Edit Filter is set to Automation. EDIT: I interpreted "selects the envelope itself" to mean "selects the clip itself. Also, I just checked, and lassoing individual envelope nodes works as expected here if the Edit Filter is set correctly.
  4. Totally agree. In fact, I deliberately used snap to landmarks precisely because the MIDI wasn't quantized. Helpfully CbB remembered the last-specified musical snap value, so I could set that at the desired resolution (16ths for demo purposes though a higher frequency might be more appropriate in practice to give 'smoother' transitions), and then disable it and have the first and last event aligned to the note boundaries with the intermediate controllers drawn at the musical resolution.
  5. Posted in your other thread: To 'heal' a split, select the clips on either side, and Ctrl+click on of them. You might want to enable snap at an appropriate level of precision to prevent 'duplicate' splits.
  6. Select the clips on either side of the split, and Ctrl+click one of them with the Comp tool.
  7. A. He's already said he doesn't like working in the PRV. B. I think he prefers the precise alignment and perfectly linear slopes of automation envelopes (the curse of making music with your eyes instead of your ears, and becoming too enamored of the graphical and numeric perfection that computers make possible IMHO). But it is possible to achieve that kind of precision in the PRV controller pane with relative ease, using the Line drawing tool and Snap to MIDI Landmarks.
  8. Hmmm... I think you must have some non-default keybindings in addition to having an undocked Track Inspector. Just undocking the track inpector does not cause that to happen here. Splitting Notes to Clips Using Tab and S
  9. Just noticed your signature indicating you're on Win 8.1. This is such an unusual symptom, I suspect it's an O/S compatibility issue; there have been a few others with Win 7/8
  10. In my experience, the Now cursor movement tends to look a little fuzzy/shaky at higher tempos and/or zoom levels. The oldest version I still have installed is X2, and it looks no different than the current release.
  11. Speediest workaround to split notes to clips: - Set 'Selection after single split' in Preferences > Editing to 'Right portion'. - Select the clip - Alternately type Tab and S as fast as you can to split your way through the clip.
  12. The whole purpose of clips is to be able to treat a group of notes as a single object. If you need to edit/process individual notes, you can do that in the PRV or Event List.
  13. If you're copy-pasting between multi-lane tracks, that's possible. Since pasting was made 'lane-aware' relatively recently, I believe Paste into Existing Clips is only applicable when copy-pasting from one single-lane MIDI track to another with lanes not showing. But the option won't be grayed out in that case; it just may not work as expected if the tracks aren't single-lane tracks. Theoretically it should be possible to make it work if multi-lane tracks have a one-to-one correspondence of tracks, but that's a wrinkle that probalby wasn't considered. 'Paste into Existing' predates the introduction of multi-layer/lane tracks.
  14. Are you sure you have MIDI in the paste buffer? The only time I see that is when the paste buffer has an audio clip in it.
  15. Paste into Existing Clips applies only to MIDI.
  16. What made you suspect that copying the project might have some effect? Is it on a different drive or just a different location on the same drive? If you watch disk and CPU usage in Windows Resource Monitor, does the crackling project show higher usage in either?
  17. 100ms is a lot although I recall Noel recommending an upper limit of 200ms at one time. Mine's been at 20ms for years without issue.
  18. If CPU Conservation Mode fixes audible 'stuttering' that would suggest some interaction between graphics processing and DPC latency, audio drivers, USB hardware/drivers or some other system hardware/driver issue. I would start by monitoring DPC latency using the free LatencyMon application, and see if the stuttering corresponds to high/spiking DPC latency: https://www.resplendence.com/latencymon
  19. I would suggest using just one track routed directly to Main Outs with the mute grouped in opposition with the Master bus mute. Then put your reference audio in lanes of that one track. Lanes have a built-in exclusive solo feature which simplifies that part of the process, and using a single track greatly simplifies the setup, and reduces the plugin load. Not sure how this will work as a template due to grouping the mute with the Master bus, but it will be much simpler to set up manually if necessary. I use this setup to A/B bounced mixes against the 'live' mix on the Master bus.
  20. Recorded audio, frozen synth audio, bounced synth audio or MIDI? If some sort of audio, make sure the track you're fading is the one you're listening too. If MIDI, you'll either need to render it to audio first or use a MIDI Volume or Velocity automation. EDIT: Or automate volume on the Master bus, which will work regardless of the source, and is SOP when fading a full mix.
  21. Did a quick test, and could not reproduce that; a sequence of 32nd notes converted fine for me. 16 steps per quarter-note 'beat' is 64ths. That's not an option for conversion from MIDI (strangely), but you can create an SS clip with 64ths from scratch. Can you share a copy of the MIDI?
  22. Options > Meter Options > Show Track Peak Markers I'm not aware of a shortcut that will toggle peak markers on/off, but it's possible. You can also right-click a track/busand enable peak markers on that one track/bus; Options menu does it globally.
  23. - Select All - Expand the Audiosnap section of the Clip properties tab in the Track Inspector. - Check the Enable box. - Set the Follow Option to 'Auto stretch'. - Check the Follow Proj Tempo box. The above settings can also be accessed by hitting Alt+A to open the Audiosnap 'palette'. Now you can freely change the initial tempo, and clips will follow the tempo change while maintaining pitch. By default, the stretching is rendered by the Groove Clip algorithm which is fine since you're going to change the tempo back, and don't have to worry about quality of the temporary stretching. After recording the new part(s), Select the new clip(s) and enable Auto strech mode on those as you did above, and then change the tempo back. Now you can disable the Audiosnap on the clips that had to be slowed down, and they will be back to their original condition. Try out the different 'online' (real-time) stretching algorithms on the new clip(s) to see which yields the best result, and then set the matching algorthm for offline stretching and Bounce to Clips to render the stretching permanent. Or Bounce to Tracks if you're not ready to commit or you want to try one of the offline Radius algorithms that doesn't have an online equivalent.
  24. It's the same in the Prochannel tab of the Track Inspector. Click the >> arrows or double-click the graph in the compact display to fly out the full UI, But, yeah, if the Track inspector isn't open you're out of luck in the TV.
  25. Firt step is to check Deferred Procedure Call (DPC Latency). This is a measure of how quickly the system can respond to a request from the audio driver to process a buffer of audio. It's typically measured in microseconds, and should ideally stay under 200us (1/5 of a millisecond) to allow running small ASIO buffers for low latency. It's very common on laptops that Bluetooth and WiFi drivers play hell with DPC latency, occasional crackles/pops in mild cases or severe distortion. 'Zipper' noise is usually associated with changing volume, but I don't think this is what you're referring to...? Download LatencyMon (https://www.resplendence.com/latencymon) to measure DPC latency, and if it's running over 300-400us all the time and/or spiking over 1000 intermittently, go into BIOS at startup, disable onboard Buetooth and WiFi systems, and see what how it looks. Sometimes just one or the other is the main culprit.
