Awesome! Picked the same libraries as you and most people did

Yes to all of this! Simple things go a long way.

Yes! This is my most wished for feature. Please make it happen, bakers! ??

This would be cool. Also, the ability to create a drum map for a track while at the same time being able to use the normal piano roll could solve this. That way you could send only the key switches to the drum map and display it on the drum grid pane above the prv to manage articulations. Key switching is such a fundamental element that that develop simply REFUSE to implement...

Yes, please!

Really good piece! Really enjoying it right now.

That's some crazy good orchestration!

Presets are also missing from the PC here.

Amazing update, really. I hope it means that the heavy bug fixing period is over and we can see new features and improvements on existing ones. I think automation and CC editing are sorely in need of attention. That, plus a way of managing articulations, would ake it a contender for the composer market. A revamped Matrix view with full recording functionality would make it an alternative to Live and Bitwig. Excited to see what happens!

Yeah, REAPER is an absolute beast of a DAW.

$50

Doesn't say if the upgrade from Micro is also at discounted price, guess not

If these things were implemented in CbB, it could become a serious contender for composers. Something like Cubase' Expression Maps controllable from the track ispector would be ideal. And just more robust overall automation and CC editing with the possibility of using envelopes instead of bars in the PRV and being able to export CC to envelope on instrument tracks.

For those of you who didn't know, Steinberg (quietly) offers their old Model E synth for free. I tried it in CbB and it works and sounds great. Enable upsampling and apply some PC saturation and you are in Moog heaven! The download also includes a bass plugin (pretty cheesy) and a metronome... https://www.steinberg.net/en/support/unsupported_products/vst_classics_vol_1.html

Cheeze Machine Pro is also $10 minimum. Great synth!

He’s been fixing bugs a lot and people seem to like his plugins. KVR has some nasty characters who take pleasure in bashing developers, especially if they’re going down. His past behavior does seem odd but I really hope that he will bounce back and that his plugins continue to be improved and debugged.

I think only the paid version of TX16Wx is comparable with Kontakt in terms of features. Kontakt’s effects, loop slicing capabilities, filters, routing, etc. are pretty incredible. It’s not just a library player, it really is one of the most powerful samplers ever made, once you get past the interface. Here’s an amazing tutorial on vocal sound design with Kontakt:

Free: - Mercuriall free stuff. The Marshall emulations are insane. - Emissary from STL tones. Comes bundled with NadIR, a very nice impulse response loader. Cheap: - Mercuriall SS-11X. Clean, crunch, high gain, impulse loader (and tons of pro quality included impulses from different companies), overdrive pedals, reverb, gate, and a very nice tuner for $40.

I bought it yesterday and I was happy to get a cheap synth. I found out then that it didn't have velocity to volume/modulation and I was sad. Now the update is announced and I'm happy again. What a ride! hahaha

I'm sorry, I mean buffer size. EDIT: OP

Thanks for your responses, guys. My power settings are all optimized. Furthermore, I used Reaper for several hours with no problem at all and CbB disconnects my devices in basically every session, every hour or so. Also, the audio drop error happens every time I switch sample rates.

Hi, My Nektat Impact LX+ (or something) periodically disconnects and won’t send MIDI until I replug it or disable/enable it in the Preferences window. Also I get an error 13 dropout each time I change the sample rate (I meant buffer size, sorry) on my Focusrite iTrack solo with the recently released deivers. I solve it by unplugging/replugging too. I’m on Windows 10 latest build, 3rd generation i7, 2.3 ghz, 8 GB RAM. Cheers! EDITED*

Yes please!

Yeah, Reaper and Samplitude do this and it’s a great feature.
