Cut your main track into into reasonable sized clips for Melodyne to handle them efficiently. Melodyne each clip. Once done, bounce them all to a single clip. Duplicate the resulting track as you see fit. J

A decent Izotope Music Suite 5 loyalty upgrade price for once. 299$ forget it. J

Its very misleading. However, when you get as far as payment, it does confirm that you have to already have Ozone 10 Advanced to get this deal. I backed out straight away as I don’t have O10. My loyalty offer is, as for others here, 249$ Shame, J

Hello, Does anyone know if the iteration of Z3ta bundled with Sonar X1 Producer will work in CbB ? I've done a personalised install of Sonar 1 and can see it in the VST Manager of CbB, and its enabled. Was it ever available in stand alone mode ? Cheers, J Edit : installed 64bit version from my X2 Prod discs, all is well. The X1 installation for whatever reason installed the 32bit version. All’s good now with the 64bit X2.

Funny, that version works as it should for me. J

Perhaps if you activate Windows that might help ? Plus you're loading audio regions - have you used Melodyne or a different software that creates audio regions ? If so bounce each region to a clip. You could also try launching CbB in safe mode, and disable all plugins then load them one by one until you find one that is wonky, especially if its 32bits...... J

There is a bug in the Toontrack software (I'm on v 1.1.5) which will cause Cakewalk (and any other DAW it seems) to crash and create numerous EZ Bass dump files. Its to do with how it handles VS + + The work around (whilst waiting for an update ) as posted on the Toontrack forum is to go into EZ Bass and un-check : Settings > General > Show Played Note Information This has worked for me. J

Its really simple. Just keep chasing the elusive « tomorrow » J

I’m very jealous because he’s got so much talent as a musicien and producer that I do not. ??? But then his pedigree says it all ??? J

And ho w do you know that ? J

Its really great for rock .YMMV but mine, never. J

https://www.metalmusicarchives.com/artist/the-sons-of-katie-elder So this was you ? J

Watched your video, the delay is like half a second. I’m no expert nor as knowledgeable as some, but that doesn’t seem all that excessive to me. YMMV J

R.I.P Babette ?

Yes you’ve made that very clear in other posts you’ve made. Some of us don’t have several PC’s, so we have to keep our DAW on line. If you are careful, you’ll not have issues. As least I don’t. And, after all, you can exclude your VST and Cakewalk files from being scanned by Defender………. J

Then you haven’t also disabled Update Medic Service ….. J

You do realise you can turn off the windows update service ? J

Whereas 5/10 years ago there was reason NOT to keep a pc on line all the time, there really is no reason not to nowadays. You’re just making activation complicated. Of course purists and, dare i say it, luddites, will scream and shout that you must never keep a DAW on line. But, Hell if the PC guru from Sound on Sound says its ok to be connected, well, its possibly true, no ? YMMV of course, and i respect your Point of View. Its just not mine. yJ

I’ve found if you use the toast alerts to update, the re-activation is without problem. J

i had this at one time, but since updating drivers for my 18i20, all is rock solid. Focusrite have recently (a month or two ago) updated their drivers to be compatible with W11. Download the latest one for your device from their website and install - it removes the old drivers as part of the install process. J

Why ? Isn’t that a little OTT ? J

I updated. And, as i said above, had to re-authorise certain plugs. Personally i would be more worried about whether my PC could pass the MS test. Mine did, many do not. J

You’ll need to check that your PC meets the W11 requirements. MS have a tool for this. Its a piece of Cake to re-authorise vst’s nowadays. And just a couple of clicks using proprietary product portals. Those vst’s that depend on a pc id (Toontrack, XLN …….) just fire up the product portal it really is easy. W10 audio drivers will work in W11 (Soundcraft for example), however most manufacturers release W11 compatible drivers (Focusrite for example). That being said, before any upgrade you need to do a little bit of homework…… J

I have the Oxygen 61 version. Just plug it into a USB2 socket, turn it on and then start CbB, in that order. As it is class compliant you do not need any drivers for it. Windows will take care of that. It should now show up in Preferences/Midi Devices. Check the boxes to select it as input and output, Apply and you’re good to go. J
