Are you talking about Discord in general or specific Servers? I ask because any of the Servers I was on were very targeted, even the ones I left after deciding they were not for me.

This and these?

Based on size alone, this matches the Roland.ins file I have from 2003. I have a larger one from 2009 and a slightly larger one from 2010. In my experience with other Cakewalk supplied *.ins files, later ones usually include the contents from the older files. Before people start collecting a new set of *.ins files (and maybe overwriting larger, later, more inclusive ones), maybe someone should should check the newer *.ins files against the new old ones being posted. PS: If someone wants to do a comprehensive comparison of older *.ins files with newer ones, I also have a Roland.ins file from 1998.

The E-Mu file is at least 2 decades old. E-Mu user groups since then used to have a contributed ins file that included definitions for all of the P2K Sound ROMs. Not sure if newer E-Mu user groups archived those, but they are available. Also, there are some P2K / Command Station editor / librarians that can generate *.ins files--useful for User Banks.

I saw it there and commented. There's no harm in having it in multiple places. There are some people who don't go to the Deals Section or The Coffee House. As you note, there are some who would benefit from CCLarry calling this video to their attention. Also, the Coffee House and Deals Forum often go into tangents which are appropriate in those forums, but might be a distraction from the value of Mike's tutorial in a Cakewalk forum. To me competition over who posted a deal first is an appropriate Coffee House topic. By the same token, sometimes someone will post a video in the Tutorial sub forum that might not be noticed by other Cakewalk users.

I like that he goes over features that I don't usually use / haven't explored, but might now that I see he pointed them out. Also, nice that he highlights some of the new features. Glad to see the content is about Cakewalk's features and not secondary to his personal preferences for another DAW.

Thanks for the clarification. BTW I don't think your math is "f-ed up" at all. I do a very similar comparative thing with IK. If I have already paid multiple times to "own" 90-95% of a bundled set of products and someone owns just one of those, their cost per new product is a very tiny percent of my cost per product I don't have. For X units of currency, I might get 4-5 products I don't already have, but for the same amount of money, others get 150+ products they don't already have. Therefore the deal is worth more (i.e., more valuable) to others than to me who already paid 2 to 3 times as much for the products. So, to me, it's brilliant, sound consumer-oriented logic! ? And it helps me to not spend money that could be better spent!

The last I checked, Ultimate Bundles for Third-Party Voltage Modular developers also include new modules at no extra charge. There are only a few developers that have Ultimate Bundles and also make new modules (I counted three), but this is another precedent to including new modules. In addition, some third-party VM developers have smaller targeted bundles (which are included in the Ultimate Bundle) and when new modules are added, they also get added at no extra charge to the respective lesser bundles, much like Melda does. KV331 Audio does the the same thing with their Synthmaster Everything Bundle. One of the hard lessons I've learned is that similar bundle labels from various companies that might imply some sort of completeness do not have similar consumer-oriented practices. JMO: It is a great service that forum members provide by helping others to see this. "Consumers of the World, Unite!!!"

Not sure I understand your situation. If the only thing you added to V Collection 9 was Acid V and your upgrade price is now 99 instead of 199, you got a 100 off.

Congrats! Happy music making!

V Collection 9 Upgrade from V Collection 9 to the V Collection X $299 V Collection 9 Upgrade to the V Collection X $199 Two offers for me. Not sure what the difference is between the two, but they are both beyond my budget. I think maybe the $299 offer is from V Collection 9, and the $199 is from V Collection 9. ?

From what I have seen there are a number of reasons covering a wide range of motives. But I'm saving up my thoughts for an April Fools' Day post. ?

Which version of the Cakewalk Command Center do you have? I have the version that was installed with CakewalkCommandCenterSteup_1.1.8.1. It works just fine here. As I recall previous versions stopped working to due to website changes (that is, when older stuff was moved to an area designated as "legacy"). The new was posted so we could access the same content but in the new "legacy" location. (See below.) If you have the current Command Center software, contact customer support to see if then can reset your password. Final thought: If you have a Rolodex (or similar system), you might want to keep track of you passwords there. Then the problems become (1) remembering what things are filed under, (2) reading your own handwriting, and (3) age related finger stiffness that make thumbing through the cards increasingly painful.

I didn't analyze the complete midi test files derived from my basic *.cwp test file, but (1) the Save As Midi 0 file, (2) the Export Midi 0 file, and (3) the Export Groove Clip file, all contained the same Time Signature meta data bytes. I'll let someone else analyze the other differences if they want. This makes sense and helps explain why BeatBuddy might have more success with exported Groove Clips. Glad to hear you found a solution that meets your needs.

I don't know how you get from being not interested in Bandlab's other services to R.I.P. unless you have made some assumptions about what the product and pricing options will be when the new products are ultimately released for sale. Of course, there's been a rash of speculation going around.

This sounds familiar.

JMO: What was was. What is is. What the future holds remains to be seen. Be Here Now.

Is it possible the BeatBuddy's real time Time Signature mode setting changes how BeatBuddy treats SMF Time Signature meta data? The above is the result of a very simple test file I just did in CbB which I Saved As as MIDI File Type 0. There are many online resources that explain the meta markers for standard midi files. Here's one for the time signature meta data.

Just a guess: Because the Membership is a Bandlab (the phone/browser) thing that was available to people who use Bandlab. After that Bandlab (the company) decided to offer the experimental/sort of early access versions of Cakewalk Sonar and Cakewalk Next to both Bandlab users and CbB/SONAR users. So, they came up with the Backstage Pass as the vehicle to do that. Maybe they did it to be sensitive to the needs and desires of Bandlab and CbB users who were getting antsy and wanted some early release hands on software?

In my experience, background colors always affect the clarity, visibility, eye strain, etc. for foreground colors. There are even website design sites that discuss these things. I haven't looked at them in a while, so unfortunately I don't have any links handy. So it might not be your eyes. PS: I used to have a tool that would let you pick up a color (like with an eye dropper) and show you the breakdown of the component colors. You could try to find one of those utilities to check it for yourself. PPS: < from the button. < painted in rectangles using MS Paint. The green overlay of the track actually changes the color of the button. Hope this helps.

The way I read it, you can get 3-days of using all that's included with the Backstage Pass, after which there is a monthly charge (unless you pay for a year's worth of the Backstage Pass).

I guess I can erase my text-based instructions on how to find the "purchase it here" button now that there's a video.
