  1. My brother the tax assessor once evaluated a multi-million-dollar home that had just been completed in his county. This was in the early aughts. A hurricane blew through a few weeks later and there was a picture in USA Today of that mansion with a car in its pool. Milton, Florida or thereabouts.
  2. Right-click in an empty area at the top so you can select which modules you want. You can also drag them around to place them where you want in the control bar.
  3. The Nektar, being a controller, makes no sound of its own, so the signal must go through some other synthesizer, such as the Microsoft GS Wavetable synth in many computer sound cards, or a software synth. The soft synth's output will be audio and go through the interface.
  4. Imagine relaxing in your back yard on a cool autumn evening, listening to some John Williams while warmed by this firepit.
  5. I assume you're using the ASIO driver? If not, use it.
  6. Yes, and it is installed on this 64-bit machine. Just for checking things. My DAW is a dinosaur (like me), 32-bit XP with E-Mu 0404. As much as I have used it the last few years, it might as well be a fossil.
  7. I have SONAR HS 6 XL, which is 32-and 64-bit. Would they have made the later HS 7 worse in that way? In any case, removing SONAR is not recommended if you want to retain all of your plug-ins and synths.
  8. Thanks. Slept more last night, fewer fever spikes. I'M ALIVE!
  9. Try it again. My roommate did something to her foot Sunday night. So early Monday I took her to the ER, and they discovered a broken bone there. I don't like hanging out in ERs with all the sick people, so I mostly walked around the parking lot (car park to our English friends) or sat in the car. Since I'm a 2nd shift guy, I usually stay up late, sleep late. I had gotten only 5 hours sleep and I was feeling it. After 3 hours, back home and I started feeling bad. I thought it was just sleeplessness, so I took a nap. It didn't get better through the day, and that night I couldn't sleep at all. Headache, coughing, chills. Tuesday morning I took a COVID test: I got the 'rona! I've been fighting fever and aches along with the headache and coughing. Highest was 100.3. Despite all the naysayers, I used to wear a mask whenever I went somewhere with people. But when I started working 2 days a week at WalMart*, I just couldn't stand having a mask on for 8 hours. It is no longer required, so I took it off. I stopped wearing one altogether, but I know that's not why I got the 'vid. It could be, though. Second day, still feverish, coughing, but it's getting better all the time. I know there have been a couple other folks here who acquired COVID, thankfully my symptoms aren't too bad. So far, my roommates haven't been afflicted, which is worrying because Ann is 74, with COPD, high blood pressure and a heart condition. I have been sequestered in my room now for 2 days.
  10. Oops. Meant for the 'random thought' fred.
  11. I assume you fish exclusively for bass, to keep it musical.
  12. So, when you read SSD, do you think ess ess dee or solid-state drive?
  13. I think I already used it all. ?
  14. Dirty contacts in the keys. Loose wires. Dirty contacts on the plugs. Cracked speaker cone. Dirty potentiometers. Broken microphone diaphragm. Sunspots. Incorrect settings in your audio interface software. Microsoft. More information is needed. What audio interface are you using? What driver mode? What operating system? How is the keyboard connected? Which keyboard is it? Are all of your drivers up to date? What version of Cakewalk software are you on? How are you making sound? A software synthesizer? Which one? A MIDI sound module? Really, there are a ton of things that could make noise, so letting us all know what you know may help you.
  15. Thankfully, it's not my job, just a hobby.
  16. Not a dadgum thing. It's as if music doesn't exist, except in my head. Complete lack of any impetus to record or write a song. Or play an instrument. But I am attempting to grow watermelons. ?
  17. Circa 1960. I'm the kid looking up at the MC. Moving right from there, brother Carl, Mom, brothers Steve and Mike.
  18. I plug my feet into my socks.

    Bird's the word.
  20. What notes sound when you hit them with a hammer?

    I need ASIO4ALL

    ASIO4All is a wrapper. The RealTek ASIO driver is incompatible; better to use WASAPI if available. Using ASIO, you can only use one, so you can't use the interface for recording and the sound card for playback.
  22. "two of our members are on it" So, Bapu counts as 2?
  23. Cool name.
  24. Can't really 'like' this post. Stick with it, Bub. Once you've walked away from everything, it's hard to get it back.
