  1. I was convinced a long time ago but it was great seeing those songs' harmonic and rhythm textures broken down in such detail. Brian Wilson took Phil Spector's 'wall of sound' and turned it up to 11.
  2. I installed the Band Edition. I haven't explored it much but the Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass sounds pretty good to me.
  3. The Animals - The Best of the Animals (1966). Still one of my favorite albums. Eric Burden was the real deal and Chas Chandler's ostinato bass in 'We Gotta Get out of This Place' was the kind of foundation upon which rock was built. Playlist below.
  4. I've never seen that before either but I Googled it and turns out many laptops don't have a Scroll Lock key (a space-saving feature). Its function can be performed by pressing a combination of the Fn key and another key, depending on what make and model of the laptop.
  5. I would use the Cakewalk Product Center to reinstall them.
  6. If you have your 8.5 installation files you can reinstall it. Select Advanced Mode when installing and you have a Custom Installation and can pick which elements to install. You can select everything or just Channel Tools. If you don't have the files handy you can download them by logging into the Legacy Cakewalk Site and going into the Support/Download Products section. Hopefully, that will solve your problem. https://legacy.cakewalk.com/
  7. Roger that. These days many computer cases have AIO (All In One) Liquid coolers already built into the case. Might be good for someone who wants to avoid the hassle of installing one.
  8. I've never experienced that behavior before. Perhaps there are other meter/key changes that need to be addressed. Try this; In the main menu select View>Meter/Key. That will open the view that Alt+Shift+6 should open. It is in the Multidock and will show any changes to the key or meter you have made. Select and delete any changes you don't want, if any.
  9. Are you using Cakewalk by Bandlab? The vertical line that moves with your mouse sounds like Aim Assist Line, which can be toggled on and off with the x key. The only other vertical line I am aware of is the Now Time Marker. Try pressing the x key to see how that affects your project.
  10. Different brands may use different components; motherboards, RAM, drives, etc. Not all components are equal and cheaper computers will (generally) have cheaper components. Some may be more expandable/upgradeable than others, have different ports and things of that nature. Another important factor is the amount of software the seller puts on that they want you to need but you really don't. Also known as 'bloatware'. My own preference with desktop computers is to build my own and install Windows from scratch. Researching the brand is good, but don't forget to research what is in the case because what is not important to you now may be important to you later.
  11. That's what I do. I disable everything I'm not using in the Device Manager>Sound, video and game controller tab.
  12. Try running it without running as an administrator. I have it always running as an administrator because I had problems using Adobe Audition as a tool in Cakewalk and I couldn't get it to work unless both were run at administrator level. You can change the default by selecting Run this program as an administrator in the Compatibility Properties.
