Thanks for listening Gary!

It was, also the first time he recorded with a virtual ensemble. Art's such a fine and experienced player that he took to it easily and enjoyed doing it. Thanks for listening bjornpdx. Jerry

Thanks Max! Jerry

When I was a kid and taking private jazz/rock guitar lessons, "legit" always meant classical music or classically-trained musicians. A lot of unnecessary strive was probably created by making a division between "legit" and "illegit" (??) music. I once asked a blind student of mine if he was legally blind, and he answered jokingly, "No, I am illegally blind"! When Bob Dylan came out on stage with an electric guitar for the first time, his fans felt "betrayed", they thought he was selling-out folk music. It's both annoying and amusing how people take their traditions so seriously that anything that happens outside of it is somehow wrong, or illegitimate, or less. As a classically-trained composer who embraced MIDI and electronic music back in the 1980s, I've gotten some of the same bullshit from online critics and other not-so-creative small-minded people. It comes with the territory of being in the arts. I prefer to be joyful and do what I do and not judge what others are doing no matter how far or close it is to what I do. I find myself happier with this attitude. Thanks for posting your story Tom! Jerry

I just lowered the price to $2750 for the pair. I bought a pair of Adam S3h's and they're arriving next week. I hope i can sell the S3a's to help finance my equipment addiction! Jerry www.jerrygerber.com

And I forgot dementia it! ?

Well, if I stole your pun I must be a kleptomaniac who doesn't understand puns. I may be puntificating a bit, but really, do I deserve to be punished? ? Isn't punning obsessively enough punishment?

The reason why kleptomaniacs don't understand puns is because: They always take things literally.

A man is seated at a restaurant. He calls to the waitress, "I'd like to know about the menu please". The waitress comes over to the table and says "Sorry, but the men I please are none of your business!"

Yeah, I paid over $5000 for them. Since I compose and orchestrate using headphones and I only use the speakers for mixing and mastering, they didn't get nearly as much use as they would have if I used them for writing and sequencing, which takes the majority of my production time. In other words, they've got years of life in them..

These speakers are superb for mixing and mastering. They are high end and are in excellent condition--no dings, blemishes or scratches. I am the original owner and they've only been used on a clean, smoke-free studio environment. Will sell locally only, must pick up (San Francisco Bay Area) $2750 for the pair.

Thanks Bitflipper for listening to my work! And thanks to Rob for listening.. Jerry

Hi Gary, Can you send me a link to your website or to music you have sung to? My daughter is getting married and I wrote a song for her and her fiance, but haven't been able to bring people into my studio because of the virus. I can't promise anything because I am looking for a particular kind of voice (male or female) but if I can find the right singer who also has the ability to record their vocal part in their own studio, maybe we can work something out. Best, Jerry

Thanks Bjorn! Much appreciated and thanks for listening..

I improved the timing between the softsynth (Dune) and the orchestral samples. The movement now has more of the feel I was going for.. Some softsynths have very sharp attacks, much sharper than orchestral samples, even marcato or other fast attacks are capable of. My solution is to move the synth tracks forward in time (later) so I can achieve better sync with the attacks. This small adjustment can greatly improve the groove of the piece. In this case the synth track is moved 55 ticks late...

Thanks InstrEd..

This is an older work, from the CD Moon Festival PLAY

Thanks for the kind comments garybrun and Starise and for listening. Jerry

Hey thanks Noynekker! Glad you enjoy listening... Best, Jerry

Great! Glad to hear that you got it working. You may have had a corrupt file somewhere. That's what I would have done; clear out the Cakewalk registry entries and all the config files. Best, Jerry www.jerrygerber.com

Yes, I always leave the note resolution on 1/32. I've tested this multiple times using different note values. It's definitely working properly on my machine. If I turn snap off it defaults to 1/32 resolution (snap resolution) and if I turn it on it snaps to whichever note value I choose. I guess the next thing I'd try is to uninstall CW and download it again and reinstall it. Let me know what happens. Maybe also delete some configuration files pertaining to MIDI before reinstalling, although you'd have to reconfigure some settings.. p.s. I've now tested this on 2 machines and snap is working properly on the staff view for both...

Yes, that is the global snap, on the control bar. It's working properly on my DAW. Hmm, it should be working on yours. Try turning global snap off and then back on. Are you sure you are running the newest version? It just got released yesterday.
