I like Echos and have used it a lot, although now I have to choose between it and Outer Space (Roland RE-201 clone), Overloud's Echoson, and IKM's Fulltone SSTE. Well worth $19.

Any good amp modeling VST sounds of electric 12-string?
rsinger replied to Robert Bone's topic in Instruments & Effects
There may be a guitar modeler. The only vst guitar modeler I'm aware of is Blue Cat Audio's Re-guitar. https://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_ReGuitar/ It seems to be closer to a PU modeler than a guitar modeler. I don't know if they have a 12 string electric though. The HW guitar modelers that seem to do a good job of 12 string emulation use hex PUs - Roland/Boss and Line 6 Variax. If you have hex PUs you probably have the HW modeling... -
I have a Boss SY-1000, but the concept is the same. I have a mixer and it feeds both an audio IF and PA and/or monitors. The main outs from the 1000 go to the mixer. If I use the 1000 usb IF then the mixer channels the 1000 are on are routed to the PA. The mixer is a 4 bus mixer so signals can be routed thru an audio IF. With this setup I can also have the the 1000 go to Ableton Live and have fx and looping all thru the 1000 and also have the mixer tracking in Cakewalk and just the Cakewalk output going to the PA and/or monitors.

Use Ableton Live or a good pedal. I have an EDP, but it's mono so I use Live 9.

I'm not a DSP guy; there are people on the forum who know a lot more about audio than I do, but I'll step in anyway. Two digital filters are FIR and IIR which are Finite Impulse Response and Infinite Impulse Response so impulse responses are used in filters. I think speaker IRs are basically filtering (EQing).

It looks like it won't be available until the 14th of Feb. The page that has the download link has an activation code or did when I dl'd it.

Or from the pulsar website https://pulsar.audio/smasher

CbB has matrix view which is non-linear. You can try that. I use Live for looping.

Yes. I'm not a recording engineer so I don't know the correct terms, but you need to consider loudness in terms or RMS or an average over time. You can have a peak that goes up to 0 dB, but the average volume over a second might be -12 dB. This is one area where compressors and limiters are used. I use both compressors and limiters when I master.

Exactly. I updated to win10 at the end of 2019 and after optimizing win10 I don't see much difference. My audio I/F doesn't have win10 drivers, but it's running as well as it did in win7. In terms of stability, buffer sizes, cpu usage, and so on CbB seems fine under win10.

I use it, it's a lot of fun.

It's a zip file, it sounds like you haven't unzipped it.

Can Thunderbolt interfaces be used with a PC?
rsinger replied to Rod L. Short's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
It may be a long wait. The USB 4 spec says it may, optionally, support Thunderbolt 3. The fact that it was made optional implies there's not much interest in it on the PC side. https://www.pcworld.com/article/3435844/thunderbolt-is-optional-in-usb4-usb4-spec-says.html -
Go to the link I provided above and download the win10 driver file. It explains possible problems and how to correct them.

You've sold me. I like spring reverb - I play guitar and have a couple spring reverb plugins, but I looked at the way this a laid out and like it. For the price it's worth trying.

Also you need a software instrument to generate sound. http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=SoftSynths.08.html

Here's a review of the motu m2. The reviewer does a number of measurements including RTL. Freq Response: 3:38 Dynamic Range: 4:33 EIN Comparison: 5:40 RTL: 8:45

One of my next toys will be the Boss SY-1000. It's been unveiled, but won't be available until February.

Some license deactivate as well as activate. iLok, Waves, and there was a zynaptiq on my system. Deactivating frees up the license so you can activate it on another (or the same) machine or maybe a mobile key. IKM and Omnisphere needed to be reactivated. Cakewalk, Nomad Factory, Camel Audio, Scuffham, Overloud, Korg, Reaktor 6 and its stuff and others didn't care that the OS and SDD changed. Note that I changed both the OS and the SDD. It's common for a license to be locked to an SDD. Some of those listed may not be affected by an OS change.

What's your buffer size?
-
I just updated my DAW from win7.1 to win10. I backed up the drive and cloned it to a new larger drive. I had put off getting a larger drive due to all the SW licenses involved. After switching to the new drive I deactivated all the licenses I could - iLok, Waves, and so on. I then updated to win10 and activated the licenses. I had to re-activate IKM licenses and Omnisphere, but I didn't have to reinstall anything. The only problem I have is with iZotope's RX 6 which came with Sound Forge or something. I never use it and haven't tried to straighten that out yet. Good luck.

Happy New Year! AT's been winning me over. Personally I like the EQP-1A with guitar and I also like the Vintage Tube Compressor and White 2A Levelling Amp.

Just an FYI. I updated my computer to win10 and a larger SDD and as part of the process tested all my licensed SW to make sure it all worked. I noticed that Omnisphere created noise inside CbB. (It was a release a few months old.) It is fine in Sonar Platinum, Live 9, and Samplitude. I updated CbB to the current release and the noise is gone. Very strange - it was only Omnisphere. The Korg Legacy synths, Alchemy, Reaktor 6, cakewalk synths & samplers all worked fine. ASIO buffer size is 96 which isn't pushing it on my system and performance meters were really low.

I use both. I like looping to develop songs. I often develop ideas in Live 9, then move over to cakewalk to record/mix and master. When Gibson dropped Sonar I tried mixing in Ableton, but it didn't seem up to the task. My opinion.
