Why p90s? I thought they were single coils.

Honestly, not really. I can spend what I want for the most part. Less than 7K is likely. I sometimes look at the 15K guitars, but the feeling silly factor comes in. I have a 3K Martin and often feel silly playing it with others. It feels pretentious and unnecessary. I don't love that feeling. I do love the guitar. I'm not sure I care a ton about the opinions of strangers, but I'm not immune to it. I live in a not so big house with my wife and daughter and don't have a ton of space for guitars. I think I have space for one more but not two. So, while I might spend 4-5K, I couldn't spend 2K twice to get a Les Paul and a CS-336. I have had in my life 5 guitars total. 1. cheap acoustic - handed off to a beggar one day while travelling to lighten my load. 1988 2. Ibanez Les Paul rip-off - Sold it when I left college -- loved that thing. 1990-1993 3. Seagull acoustic electric - bought this in lieu of the Ibanez 1993 4. Strat 1995 (so I could practice silently into a cassette deck) 5. Martin 2003 (when my daughter was on the way - switching back to acoustic)

I don't a have a guitar with humbuckers and I think I might be ready. I'm shopping for a guitar and I haven't done that since 2003. I have a strat. ? I'm trying to learn a bit about Jazz, but I don't really play it for real. I'm thinking about a Gibson CS-336. Maybe an ES-335? PRS? Les Paul? Something with humbuckers. Seeking opinions on how/where to buy. Reverb.com? Sweetwater? idk. My last guitar was from my local music shop but I don't really have a local shop anymore. I'm not sure there is much difference between guitar center and sweetwater in my eyes. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/wishlist/834f8fe051ab55b3e3c0f463d5a81ea7

I kinda agreed with the video. I've spent years using reference levels from the EBU meter and backing off compressors or tightening them up. I think it's good practice. I'll never mix as much music as he has. I just don't have that many bands to work with. But I can see from where I sit that I could get to the place where the reference level was kinda in my head and I could let it go... I could mix for the song not a target loudness. Sometimes, I start targeting 14 and the nature of the band brings me easily to 12 without any real compromise. I can imagine that the same could be true for 10 or 8. I've never targeted these levels, but I'm sure there is music that would suite them. I do usually mix a night of music, not just one song. I also mix it to be listened to contiguously. So the volume of the last song needs to feed into the volume of the next song. Some songs can seem a little louder than others, but not a lot louder. This is a constraint he isn't thinking about (or maybe he is). But if you mix song by song, you can discard concerns about what comes before or after and just mix that song.

I never noticed before that LandR is left and Right. Is this one of those things everyone notices but me?

My skills aren't equal to lock down any software that requires admin privs at install. I just wouldn't notice tiny infractions of trust. For me, it's a matter of do I trust them. I choose to. I feel that in general there is a lot of trusting in life.

I'm with you, Haden. It made me a bit nervous too when the company first stopped charging. I try to limit who I have to trust. It's not certain that they can be trusted, but it's also not certaion that someone you are paying can be trusted. ? You just have reason to believe they wouldn't want to lose that revenue stream (software you pay for). If the revenue stream could be padded by selling your privacy... well we know some are game to sell it. I can't see any real danger. A lot of people I have interacted with for a very long time (Noel for example) says it's trustworthy. I'm not exactly sure the economic model is reasonable, but it's also possible a rich individual just likes music and has this as a side line for fun. I really can't say. There are people that rich. Paul Allen has hobbies like this. If there is something nefarious, what are they getting? Uploading my hard drive one byte at a time? stealing terrible guitar riffs? I think the stuff volunteered by me on social networks or data from my phone is a much much bigger invasion of privacy and we know that gets sold. If this stuff is getting sold, I can't imagine to whom. If you figure it out, please tell me and I'll sell myself to them for whatever pennies they'll cough up.

Cakewalk is pretty tightly bound to Windows. it has been for ages. They tried to get it running on Mac but that stumbled. I'm guessing getting it running on Linux is also a distant dream. For Linux, Mixbus is pretty great and you can use Windows plugs with it using Wine. Also Ubuntu Studio is a nice Linux Build. I love all things open source and it's an interesting question to ask why not Cake? I have some guesses but don't really know the answer.

Loved this! I lived in the Colorado Rockies with cats and dogs at one time and in the middle of the night there was a lion making a ton of noise right outside my room. I plugged in my amp, turned it way up and hit the guitar hard. Slept fine after that. Silence.

I don't see a lot of independent music stores any more. https://fretmill.com/

There is a strange difference between panning of a mono signal from stereo. It's not at first obvious but it is documented. If you have channel tools plugin, you could do things that way.

I can't play a Rick. Too narrow. To me it wouldn't have been worth 100, so you came out ahead by 300. ?

All weather thing. Sounds pretty good.

You can also control selected areas with markers. Click between two markers in the ruler to select that area.

Me too. It's been life long. Still hoping for improvement though. Hope probably goes with the disease.

I'm missing some step. The midi files play fine in audition mode, but when I drag them to a track they are missing all the data. Duh... ? Help? It seems to be adding a heap of midi tracks with the last of the heap having the clip I'm after. Shrug. I can work with it.

I got the discount. Thanks

Try ctrl+F5 in Chrome if this happens. That will reload the page disabling your browser cache momentarily and getting the javascript files freshly. It's possible that you have files loaded prior to a code change that are then mixing with other files from after the code change and this is causing the inconsistent displays.

Virus scanner scanning the drive? If your virus app is permitted to scan wave files, when you record and hit stop, you now have new files to scan. Now you start recording again and you are competing with your scanner for io. It's easy to exclude wave files from scanning.

Dead thread back to life b/c I just bought it. I did use the deal. I had thought it through carefully when the upgrade came out and decided against it. I don't think I've used Melodyne once since then. Idk why I bought it. I might have caught some dread disease hanging out with you people.

I'm an idiot. Well known truth. I rarely use it except to understand what was played. I never modify what was played really. lol And still, I couldn't resist upgrading. I feel like it's an important tool for some reason. Remember, I'm an idiot. But I am grateful for the discount price. I paid $132 USD at EveryPlugin for an upgrade from Studio 4 to Studio 5.
