  1. As if they couldn't go international on this.
  2. I'm trying to get the hang of the Alt scroll zoom method as well.... - trying to un learn many years of workflow habits is difficult. I wouldn't mind if there was a little bit taller window on the time line for selecting the zoom tool. Or Better yet - a dynamic navigator window which could be made switchable to either : The traditional navigator window -Or - traditional zoom along timeline selection - you have a little more screen space for the selection tool. or as Christian noted - color coded markers and marker text that could stack above the previous marker if they intersected each other. That window would grow taller as you zoomed out and markers pile up on top of each other. If color coded then those colors could also translate to the markers list row.
  3. To accomplish the same scenario as David Baay describes above but without using lanes. - After you split the section using the "S" key - I make sure the clip is muted by using the keyboard stroke " Q " ( that clip section will turn grey ) then grab the end of the active unmuted clips near the upper clip header with the mouse - the curser will change to a dbl arrow and you can very quickly pull a quick fade manually for either end of the clip to create a fade in or fade out. You can also change the clip boundary very quickly to " adjust the exact start or end time of the clip and the fade will ride along with the clip length change. It's very fast and intuitive once you done this a few times. The fade can be as long or short as you choose and it's start and ends are fully editable. When you are happy with the results - you can move onto other changes or edits - or - after you have proofed some or all of your changes in the edit - simply select " BOUNCE TO CLIPS " under the Clips Tab or right clicking the mouse - and the track will render all of your mutes and all of your fades. The bounce to clips routine is a destructive edit - except for Ctrl Z which is undo. There are multiple levels of undo as well. I primarily edit with out using comping and lanes myself - but comp lanes is the most comprehensive method to A-B your splits.
  4. I think one of the best concerts I've been to in the last 25 years was seeing Steve Hackett about 2 years ago. Just very musical with minimum pomp and hype. I would recommend it to anyone into Genesis as well. Though he touched on a few favorite Genesis tunes it was just classic great prog - ish classical rock music. I still can't describe that genre worth a damn after 40 years. Also - catch a " Musical Box " the band - concert if you can. I think I've seen them 7-8 times and they're the best Tribute you'll find.
  5. My Bread and Butter multy timbrals are Independence Pro and Kontact 5.
  6. AS far backwards compatibility. Many of my early projects were created in Sonar 2 and I worked with that until just about 6 months before Gibson bailed. I had purchased Sonar Pro at that time and found that after Installing CbB ( which was compatible with SPLAT ) I was able to open a CbB ( Splat ) file in Sonar Pro and it opened and played perfectly - minus a few Pro channel plug updates. I do wish I had a few more of the Splat version Pro Channel modules.
  7. I do wish there was a method to simply ( by default ) re-call the last (used) screen set. I often wish to boot -up a project exactly where I left off in the last session - which might include window focus -zoom levels, plug in focus etc. I find it confusing to try to save an overwrite of a different screen set # in order to capture my exact settings. They seem to flash on screen upon project load - so there seems to be a recalled state of the last session , then they are over written by the screen set or lens. Maybe just switchable method to skip loading a screen set or lens would do it. Not sure what would happen if you start a new session with that off though.
  8. It might depend on if you're using the plug in an effects bin on a mono track ( it stays mono ) or using it via an aux send to a stereo buss where it wants to operate in stereo. That plug in's stereo out on the buss might feed other stereo busses via an Aux send as well.
  9. The only info I can find is that it's compatible with MAC OS Catalina. No other features updated I guess. I have Studio as well.
  10. I got to say - I logged online, updated and had a project open in less than 3 minutes. You folks are really rocking it.
  11. The bakers needs little black masks ....... The incredible s strike again.
  12. I've seen issues where the midi assignments can re-assign to other instruments if an instrument was deleted and then re-assigned. This has also happened if the VSTi was upgraded. Maybe the internal instrument ID has in someway changed and the " frozen " assignment gets uncorrelated.
  13. I believe UAD are having major problems with their console software across the board. I've just went through over 3 months of trouble shooting trying to upgrade software on an older win 7 system. I wasn't able to do it and finally settled with restoring the old software after major issues with a faulty firmware upgrades. There are multiple issues with the new integrated software and devices with Windows 10 from what I've seen on the UAD forum.
  14. I would recommend that in the context of first starting to learn guitar -play-ability is the most important factor. In that price range - you can get some amazingly fine sounding guitars. A cheaper and more modern manufactured ply guitar is nothing like the days of old. They can be fantastic, but the downside of modern manufacturing is in the lack of detail in the set-up. The frets are often just pressed and not fine tuned and the nut height is often very generically set and can add difficulty in playing which is definitely not what you want when first struggling to learn. If you find one, at least have it looked over by someone who knows what they're looking at and maybe it'll be ok out the box - but maybe factor in a low cost initial set-up. As far as brands go - Yamaha's and Takamines are pretty good IMO.
  15. I think you're in Transient markers mode ( audio snap ) possibly. I don't really use the mode but I've stumbled into it as well.
  16. RBH

    NI Restructure

    Unfortunately they have had a near literal lock on large scale sample library distribution for about 10 years. If they limit those options to a subscription services, It'll be slim pickings for awhile, and who knows if they will support legacy items. I'm not too confident they will.
  17. Indeed - good to hear. Mark has been very helpful to this forum. Congrats -
  18. You can use the bounce to tracks function. Select both tracks in the track view - open the " tracks tab and select bounce to tracks. The dialogue has selection switches that will allow a bounce with a variety of different types.
  19. I used that on a session a few weeks ago, I stumbled across it somehow - and tried it just to see what it brought, and it worked out really well. I used it for an exaggerated fake tape flange on a vocal chorus fade.
  20. I'm sure it isn't trivial and might be a lot of extra overhead, but maybe with faster systems it can happen in the future.
  21. Nice one folks - thanks for this reminder - I've been splitting and editing a very large session over the last few days and I've been doing all the splits with individual selection points - this will cut my time in half.
  22. Doesn't it currently retain the name of the source track and places a ( bounced ) tag on the track name ? That's how it appears to work when I'm bouncing tracks. But maybe the op has a different scenario at play. I can see it causing confusion if it's renamed with no reference to orignal track name - personally.
  23. I think lighting up the Piano Roll Views' piano keyboard with midi info from the current selected editing track would lend a great benefit for editing. Similar to how a VSTi's instruments keyboard light up to midi input. To go further and use higher contrast to the current selected edit track and lower contrast to other selected tracks. This could be a great addition to quick at a glance note and chord confirmation.
  24. Usually the band lab update works from it's own prompt : this time around it declared an error of some sort and prompted that I update manually, which worked just fine.
  25. Thanks for all the fixes and consistent commitment to updates Noel and bakers. You guys are the best in the business IMHO.
