i usually run the XLN installer to reset (i typically remove the 32-bit dll - and periodically the installer says the install is broken). then re-scan VST in CW.

basically -- using page up/down steps through the list of keys so you're not simply scrolling endlessly. for me, i see a whole bunch spread across a big splash screen which allows me to select pretty quickly.

and you're using the 12-bit crusher effect on the torn cone edge recording made via a 50 year old SM-57 through the 20 bit 48K ADAT... nothing says love like resampling to 768Khz to get that really crisp leading edge transient that fans go crazy for... listening on the 16-bit 44.1Khz lossy file format audio on the subway ride...

too much spare disk space and cpu? ?

or, following up on InstrEd idea - you can "stagger" the content on each track so it effectively forms an "album" -- each song separated by about 2 seconds. then each track can still be tweaked (eq, levels etc -- to "master" them) and then export as a single file...

brilliant! kudos given how much work this must have taken!

i just use busses with the components in it (drums, bass, guitars, keys, vox, etc etc) - w/o group reverbs - and simply use the CW export tool. set the output to busses, select the "stem" busses, etc. then save as a task (so it's easy to repeat). export. i do the same when recording - export tracks from my recording template then import into mix template. the reason for not exporting the busses with the group reverbs is to avoid having the reverb share tracks across stems. whoever is working with the stems later can add their own reverb to it. or if it's important, export the reverbs as separate stems. i set up subfolders in the project exported audio folder - "tracks" and "stems". ---- never mind i misread this. you're looking to split a single file into stems... i tried out the deeter software - it is definitely cool, however, you need a fast machine otherwise this can take several hours to run... the end result though are pretty intelligently split instrument tracks...

most programs are fairly small compared to content like samples etc. so i only create junctions for content subfolders. some programs, as scook has explained, will break - to wit - sampletank --- i cannot find a reliable way to get the content off the "user/public/documents" folder without it breaking. so i left it. most other programs will let you do it - even the Waves stuff i've moved content out and updates seem to work fine and put the content onto the right mapped folder.

yes, however in our brave new world of doxing, social media activism, employer harassment, name calling amplified on multiple platforms, etc. someone can be targeted and destroyed should someone get a bug up their you-know-what and make it their right to do the wrong things... just saying...

thanks!

updated - new vocal performances, and some recommended changes. BPM 75 Key G Major -------------------------------------------------- did she tell you it was a rainy day she found another to love her and left to go her way it's so sad, i never knew let me tell you my friend it could happen to you i was lost and alone not knowing what to do i cried out isn't there another heart that's true? i called, you answered you touched my heart and soul so i learned this lesson i want you all to know in the adverse times of your life if you find someone who makes you happy you ask them to stay and everything will be okay two people loving each other two people falling in love woke up with the sun one morning, and i rolled over in bed and there you were darling, then you touched my head you told me once, or you told me twice that loving you is all i need not something i could lie about 'cause sure the feeling is nice and everything has turned out right two people loving each other two people falling in love two people loving each other two people falling in love falling in love

set track one as the track source, voice set to side chain, and create a send on track 2 to the OVox. and from there play with various settings ?

thanks! yes it's an original - i wrote it when i was in Amsterdam in 2015 as part of my efforts to keep up with the other singer/songwriters ? at a weekly open mic @ the backstage hotel, which set the requirement for only original songs. i was watching "old yeller'" or something and thought about needing a soundtrack at the end of the movie - i tend to do a lot - writing while watching tv with the sound off... lol. yes, definitely some tweaks will be needed on the next mix...

ok, full update. new singers and music track. BPM 98 Meter 4/4 Key E Major -------------------------------------------------- i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you and i'm not sure what it is i'm gonna do you were here then the lights went down and your smile turned upside down now you know i'm feeling sad and blue i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you and i don't what it is i'm gonna do you were here and your smile was bright living all through your life now you know it hurts me, you know its true i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you and i'm not sure, i even want to try keep on, keep on missing you every day for the rest of my life keep on, keep on missing you every day for the rest of my life keep on, keep on loving you every day for the rest of my life keep on, keep on missing you every day for the rest of my life i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you i can't stop missing you and i'm sure i'm never gonna try

creating? == notepad++ -> create & save master text file -> copy & paste into notes. ? update? == notepad++ -> edit & save master text file -> copy & paste into notes. ? templating? -- check spellcheck? -- check precision content edits? -- check no loss if crash during notes edit? -- check highly reusable outside of CW? -- check cons: alt-tab to switch between CW and notepad++... lol

hmmmm. my exe is dated 2018 whereas the download site is 2016 maybe @scook posted an updated version?

SONAR & Cakewalk by BandLab (CbB) Resources and Utilities -- removed link as it was to the older one --- see scook's link

i have a MASTER - which i run the C4 MB compressor to set of general overall mix level and via pre-fader sends to a PRINT buss (which is the no hardware output buss i use to export a stereo file), and MST-12 buss (which is set to -12 on its fader) to quickly switch between normal volume and low volume without changing faders. for surround i replace those with surround busses and some of the submix and reverb busses also (this is a separate template based on my generic mix template).

you can also see the 32 or 64 bit in the FX browser. and i also use the VST Inventory program to periodically collect the plugins registered with CW

i've found ASIO4ALL useful - however - i cleaned up all my other "ASIO" drivers and generally cleaned out any extraneous audio drivers. so now i have my Intel non-ASIO drivers, IMC ASIO, and ASIO4ALL. mostly use the WASAPI shared or exclusive modes. some VI require an "even boundary on 8" sample setting, and the WASAPI modes often fall on odd numbers (e.g. 441 vs 384 or 512). this is where the ASIO4ALL is handy - i can set it on an even boundary (it defaults to those), get my VI work completed, render to audio, then go back to my regular drivers. and then, unless i'm really in love with the VI, i'll relegate it to "do not use unless necessary", and a few VI were so annoying with the sample settings, i uninstalled them. edit: forgot i have the Tascam DX ASIO driver as well for when i use my DX for recording. that one works really well and has never given me a problem (then again, the UMC ASIO driver is pretty solid as well)

all 70+ tracks have clips playing at the same time?

also - more curiosity - is the reason for manipulating so many tracks gain due to a) too hot a record level? b) too low a record level? c) using a VI but not using the VI volume control? for me, i tend to check inbound client files for volume levels, noise, etc are part of prep, or if they're my own sourced files / clips - making sure the peak levels are min -12db or more likely -18db. so i seldom have to touch gain controls unless i want the track to be a bit more hot going into the FX.

it took me a few times to finally get the main variations in the export dialog understood. then i discovered "tasks". so being lazy, i set up a few tasks which default to "mix" based on my "print" buss (a buss defined to take the master output). and a "tracks" tasks which outputs the tracks - full length all - to an "audio export\tracks" folder (which i create on my recording projects). saved into my record and mix templates. then, in a project, i "recall" the settings, tweak some of the selections and the time length, "update", and then run tasks. now i get my mix and my tracks exported together or one or the other. otoh - i think the UI is good for me as i'm often using complex export/import functionality for my drafting and rendering work, but if you're not used to a complex I/O UI + the idea that a) "entire mix" is somewhat ambiguous and maybe calling it/adding "hardware output"? b) the module and the dialog have some conflicting concepts (?) which need to be rationalised...

hopefully in your walk-in subzero refrigerator set at 5% humidity

any reason you chose to use plugins instead of the native gain control? curious.
