  1. None at all, as long as you remember to NOT save it at the end of the session. You would have to remember to Undo (Ctrl Z) after each iteration. You could also copy all the tracks and work on the copies to your hearts content without altering the originals. I don't know if repeatedly Lengthening and undoing a track will screw it up, which is why I typically work on copies.
  2. Also, some plug-ins will make a noise or otherwise glitch if they're demoes or past a prescribes activation period.
  3. Are we still on this? Oops. I guess we are. ?
  4. First, click Edit above the staff, then Layout. Select the layout you want.
  5. Applying the effect is permanent, it can't be undone once you save and close the project. Freezing can be undone with no permanent alteration to the audio.
  6. Right. When they ask me how long is my "finger span", I can say 18.
  7. I have no formal music education whatsoever. But, there was a time when people actually paid me to play music, as hard as that is to believe. I would not push a child to do something they may not want to do just because they might get paid more in 30 years. Saying that, I believe there is no bad education.
  8. Welcome. Which item do you want to get rid of?
  9. I'm sure there's more than one way to do it, but I just tried a method in CbB, the one I would use for its simplicity. Assuming the tracks are all audio, I would bounce them down to a single stereo track in the same project. Do that by selecting all the tracks you want, going to Tracks>Bounce to Tracks and selecting busses as the source, then Master bus. Also assuming the tracks are going through your Master bus. Once that master track is rendered, select that track only, then go to Process at the top, then Length. I did 120%, which slowed it down quite a bit. So, now you have a slow track and your fast track(s) all in the same project. Solo whichever one you're working on and when you're through, you could delete the slow tracks if you want. If they are MIDI through soft synths, you would have to render the MIDI to audio first. Welcome to the forum.
  10. "Is this Cakewalk By Band Lab software compatible with screenreaders like JAWS (Job Access With Speech)? Will it work on a machine with Windows 7 installed? Are there features similar to Sonar 8.5 Producer Edition? These are especially important questions I'm asking, should there ever come a time I may need to upgrade my motherboard or processor. Hopefully that's not gonna happen anytime soon!" Annabelle asked in the "Still Using SONAR?" thread if her screen reader would work in CbB. I pasted in some info from the Reference Guide about how to possibly go about that, but she will need that confirmed before she can use CbB. Has anyone used a screen reader in Cakewalk?
  11. Often, when a plug-in has focus, clicking the computer's F1 key will open the plug-in's Help.
  12. Cool song, C.R. I like it. Did I hear Jon Lord in there?
  13. I've found that spraying Pam on the mixer blades makes clean-up much easier.
  14. Have you tried activating from Cakewalk? You click it, it takes you to the sign-in page, which hopefully you can sign in to, and presto chango... activated. Don't use the Bandlab Assistant app. Good luck!
  15. And let's not forget, "Muskrat Love" was written by my fellow army brats from the band America. Had 2nd thoughts; did I know what I knew? No! It was written by Willis Alan Ramsey. Oops.
  16. I could never hear the metronome, so I created a simple drum track that is now part of my preferred template.
  17. Cakewalk has a staff view, although I'm told it's rudimentary. I don't read music, so it looks fine to me.? I don't think so, but I have Cakewalk's Chord Analyzer which makes a guess as to what chord is playing. I may have it from an earlier version of Cakewalk (SONAR? Music Creator?) so you may not have it. Welcome to the forum.
  18. And yes, it has happened to many of us. Especially when you're new and haven't gotten used to hitting Ctrl>S every so often. Welcome to the forum.
  19. I think they were microphones. The had screens that looked like SM 58s. Referring to my post above, of course.
  20. Only mods can delete a thread. You could edit/delete all of your comments but that would leave folks who come here later with a lot of unanswered questions. It's better to leave it up for future generations.
  21. This is from the Basic template. If you click the arrow at the bottom outlined in red, all your existing busses will show. You can see the Master is there and is output to Speakers. On the left you can see the same bus marked Master, which is also how it would appear in the Console view. You can expand the console view from the bottom. Since you already have a Master for whatever template you're asking about, you just need to find it and set its output to whatever valid output your sound card or audio interface has.
  22. I love a piano. Growing up, whenever we would visit the grandparents, I got to play my mom's Hamilton piano. She had lessons on it in the 1940s. When I was working in Dallas, TX, one of my apartment complex accounts had a baby grand in their lobby. Whenever I arrived there and they were at lunch or on the property, I would play it. I began to ensure that I got there at lunch so I could play it. The customer noticed and asked me how it was; I mentioned that it needed tuning and the next time I went there, he had a tuner in there working on it. Pretty cool. My roommate has a Baldwin Acrosonic (the exact model my bass player had when we all shared a house in Goleta, CA in the early 1980s). I used to play it all the time when she worked, but she's retired now and never goes anywhere, so I can't play it. I'm pretty sure she doesn't want to hear me banging on it and warbling unintelligible lyrics while she's trying to watch Diners, Drive-ins and Dives ? My mom's piano:
  23. It depends on the guitar. My across-the-street neighbor when I lived in Germany had an off-brand guitar (below Teisco) that you could sing through the pick-ups.
