Gary, Thank you for providing the YouTube link to "The Song". To my ears Hobo Train sounds like the group Little Big Town or Lady A with this song. Excellent song, production and video. I'm sure it was a lot of work but well worth the effort.

First time hearing "I've Been Down" and Hobo Train. The song and delivery reminds me A LOT of early Rascal Flatts songs. How does a lead singer for a Norwegian Country Band develop such a strong southern accent? While listening through headphones I'm hearing two background vocalists that are spread wide left and wide right. There is not much, if any background vocalist near the center. The left channel vocalist seems to be more prominent and above the musical instrument tracks while the right channel vocalist seems to sometimes get lost in the musical instrument tracks. Hopefully these are things you expect the listener to hear. Great use of effects. Very clean and clear sounding mix. Nice dynamics. Dog gone good.

Looking at the +++ Millenium MPS-850 user manual +++ the unit transmits midi notes on midi channel 10. You have set the track's midi input to e-drum but you must also set the track's midi input to receive either MIDI ch. 10 or MIDI Omni.

There have been a few forum discussions concerning CLAP plugins. +++ HERE +++ and +++ HERE +++ are two threads you may find interesting.

@azslow3, thank you for responding to my question. You certainly have offered a lot of assistance to other forum members. I trust what you write to be either accurate (mostly of a technical or programming) information or a considered and informed opinion. I'm sorry you do not feel comfortable in certain areas inside the forum. I apologize for pushing for a product name. I believe every DAW has unique strengths and weaknesses that make each DAW unique. Every DAW user also can have special needs that are met better with one DAW than another. I have not used or looked at many DAWs. I have no way to know what works best in certain situations other than comments I read from forum members whose opinion I value. My goal was to be exposed to interesting information, not to make you uncomfortable.

@azslow3, I seldom frequent the Coffee House so I know not of what you speak. Has this forum really gotten so weird that you feel uncomfortable mentioning other DAWS by name? I sincerely hope not.

@azslow3, somehow I'm missing the name of the DAW you're referencing in your post above.

Agree with all the comments regarding the vocals, your friend Rob did a wonderful performance. However, the audio production behind the vocal is pretty good too. I hope the two of you will pair up to perform some more songs.

@Matthew Simon Fletcher and @John T, are the glitches visible, audible, or both visible and audible? The reason I ask is because if it is only a visible glitch I would suspect either your computer graphic driver, monitor driver or how the graphic chip handles specific zoom percentages. That would also explain why you have such difficulty capturing a screenshot since a screenshot is a redraw of the screen.

Steve, Thanks for providing the additional information. At this point my guess is an *.ini file is corrupt but is not removed when you remove and install the program. I looked through the help menu and the manual. Both describe the variables available for three ini files but none of the variables affect tooltips. However both also mention there are several other ini files that are not user configurable. My guess is it is one of those files. Perhaps @Noel Borthwick, @msmcleod or @Jonathan Sasor will have an idea why the tooltips enable/disable toggle is not working correctly.

My thinking is he may enable tooltips while the program is in use but the setting is not saved when he closes the program. I've seen this happen with other software programs particularly if a user opens a program, changes a setting and then exits the program. The program closes without updating settings because just changing a setting is not considered as a change. The program is looking for a change in content data. For example in addition to changing the setting the user could change screens, move the cursor to a different place on the timeline, enable the metronome, add a track. Something that tells the program work has been performed during this session.

Check Preferences to make sure Show Tooltips is enabled. Press the pc keyboard letter "p" to open Preferences. P > Customization > Display > Other

Hello @Metalhawk, You may not be aware that development of Cakewalk by Bandlab, or CbB for short, has stopped. This was announced June, 2023 +++ HERE +++. The same announcement introduced two new DAWs, Next and Sonar. Next is a new DAW that is available on both Windows and Macintosh operating systems. Sonar continues the development of CbB under a new brand name. Both Next and Sonar are available with a monthly or annual subscription to Bandlab. Sonar release 2024.08 includes many enhancements to reduce latency. You may want to download a trial of Sonar and see if it resolves the issue. If not, then you may want to create a post describing the issue in the Cakewalk Sonar section of the forum.

What is PDC?

I haven't seen a post by Steve in a long time. I looked up his profile and he last posted in September, 2023. He is a great forum asset and very much missed. Anyone know what's going on and provide an update?
