Starship Krupa

Oh noooooo.... I was recently trying to list the musicians who have influenced my own music and David Ball is in the top 5 at least. My favorite Soft Cell song, radio edit. The immortal lyric: "And the girl underneath doesn't care who you are And you're nearly there and she still doesn't care And her chewing gum is getting stuck in your hair" Never fails to bring a laugh. The synth bass line is ferocious in note selection, tone, and execution.

Windows 11 Pro license from bulk reseller. I bought a Windows 10 Pro license from a similar places and it worked fine. Just Google "Windows 11 Pro license." Even though they seem impossibly low priced at $6 they are legit. I've never heard of anyone running into a problem with these resellers. I think what they are doing is buying in bulk at system integrator prices and then flipping them. Similar to what a local computer shop that does system builds pays. Which lets you know how marked up the consumer licenses are.

Yes. Synths and FX with stochastic elements as well as others.

What I often do is screen grab using Windows' own Win+Shift+S utility then paste directly into a post in order to save time and eliminate needing to open a raster editor, saving an image, then uploading it. I think the forum converts such images to .PNG's for storage, so it could be that my practice of doing that is using up my quota sooner than if I went with .JPG's. So when the time comes that I just don't have enough room to post images of attach minidumps or whatever, I'll ask the powers that be to increase my allotment. If they won't, we start saying goodbye to illustrations that went with my topics and replies over the years.

It depends on how much extra the people building your system charge for it and whether you want/require the extra control over the OS that you get with Pro. Some people like being able to postpone system updates indefinitely, others (like me) like to completely and permanently disable realtime file scanning for malware for the entire system. Home only allows you to exclude individual folders, not the entire system. It also only allows you to postpone updates temporarily. Since licenses for Pro may be found much cheaper by the consumer than what you'd usually pay for them through whoever's building the system, I'd probably go with Home then upgrade it once the system was in my possession. Because I'm someone who wants the extra control. If the difference between versions is more than about $15, I'd start with Home and upgrade it myself.

I'm interested to hear the OP's reply. The only effect that I can think of wanting to print would be compression, and that would only be when using a recording medium with much less range than 44.1KHz allows me.

Curious, why do you want to print FX while recording? You can monitor them while recording, then bounce the recorded track and the FX will be baked in just as if you had printed them while recording.

I presume that they have compilers that can generate object code for both platforms, seems like a good opportunity to use one.😄 The project caused me to wonder if the ARM64 push provided a good excuse to finally do some overdue retooling of Windows' audio infrastructure in general. Because if I were Pete Brown, I would have jumped all over that. No matter how quickly ARM64 is adopted/embraced by manufacturers and users, x64 is still going to be the overwhelmingly dominant architecture for a while. And it isn't like Windows isn't long overdue for an audio driver that improves on WASAPI for generic class compliant devices. WASAPI was a great advancement, but it's getting long in the tooth.

It would be nice if the powers that be could ease up on this restriction, I suspect that the cost of resources for the back end has dropped. The issue I run into is that as the forum goes on, I have screen shots and so forth in posts where I presented a solution for someone, and it seems like a shame to have to delete illustrations rather than keep them useful for the many people who hit Google looking for solutions to their Cakewalk issues. The forum has been around for half a dozen years now.

This question has already been answered, from the hardware standpoint. Yes. From a software standpoint, if RME supply a driver that's compatible with the OS, then yes. And don't confuse "supported" with "compatible." Focusrite's support for the driver and control panel software that goes with my Saffire Pro 40 was ended years ago, but it still works just fine. It depends on what all you want to do with the computer. If you wish to do anything that involves video editing or scoring, a dedicated GPU will make things much smoother. Even a lower end card would suffice, so you don't need to spend a fortune. Just something with at least 8GB of GDDR. If it's strictly audio, then the integrated GPU should be fine. And if you decide to start doing video or gaming with the system, you can add a dedicated GPU later.

For anyone who is a fan of Unfiltered Audio or Glitchmachines style creative sound design/warping. It's a wonderful tool for that, built to A|A|S' usual high standard of quality.

For precise pinpointing of frequencies, that same MeldaProduction FreeFX bundle also includes MEqualizer and MAnalyzer, both of which have spectrum analyzers that can display the exact frequencies of whatever frequency peaks are in the source material. MEqualizer also allows you to solo whatever band you're currently adjusting to further help pinpoint where the issues are. Big fan of the FreeFX bundle here, I consider it an essential package of audio plug-ins (processors and tools) and you can't beat the cost.

That's great. It's also good to list which driver mode you're using. ASIO, WASAPI Exclusive/Shared, WDM, whatever. ASIO is where you want to be, some people who are having issues switch it to one of the other modes to try to fix it and then forget to switch it back.

If anyone wants to try disabling core parking, Bitsum have a free utility that lets you do it without manually hacking your registry: https://bitsum.com/parkcontrol/ Here's an article that goes into greater detail about what core parking is and why one might wish to disable it or leave it alone. Basically it says if your computer is plugged in, you can turn it off and see what happens with no concern. If it's on battery, you'll run your battery down faster without core parking. That's the tradeoff. https://geartakes.com/disable-core-parking-audio/

Oh, I misunderstood what you meant by "r' click." It seems that you meant "right click." Try what Colin suggests and then what I suggested should start working correctly.
