  1. Hey John Yeah, I caused a few locks myself-asking questions.................All very, very confusing. So in that respect, NOTHING has changed here at CW 😉
  2. Guess I should have known this since I have been here since the 90's. Been fine using CWbyBL, does all I need. But I figured I would check out the free Sonar. And of course, the $49 promo disappears and turns into $99? WHY? That's not a question really-I know by now. EDIT:We all know the free Sonar will be going bye bye also..............
  3. OK installed it. For my work this makes no difference at all-I don't use CW plugins anymore. But I am guessing this move also means we will be forced to subscribe or move on when this "EVALUATION" is over and bye bye CbyBL! Says Evaluation which would imply it will be going bye bye real soon. No?
  4. OK I give up-Where is the the FREE SONAR? All I see is the $49 subscription offer?
  5. Thanks-I am still looking but keep coming back to the Neumans, I could actually get the6.5" ones, about $2500 a pair, but I normally get a discount at Sweetwater, depending o the item. Thanks again for the reply and help
  6. Mainly, I am not familiar with Neuman Monitors, so? The price point is DOUBLE here. Quit a difference. so I asked if anyone is familiar basically. My mackies were purchased REFURBISHED 16 years ago...............Reason I think new ones, of any kind , would be better..................Components do experience fatigue of sorts over the years.
  7. Hi I am looking to really upgrade my 16 year old Mackie HR625mkii monitors. Room is treated pretty well and around 10'x 12' with 8ft ceiling. These neumans have a 5.25" woofer. Would these be ok in this room. I would have to believe that they would be better than what I have by a long shot. Thankls for any insight.
  8. No problem-I was just adding more info. It's all good to me!
  9. Hi Jim Yes I knew that. Always remember the great help you gave to so many of us way back when the forum had Glennbo and SusanG and others......... I believe my user name back then was either Stratster or Stratman with a number 🙂
  10. I have known about StudioCats since the ORIGINAL cakewalk forums long, long ago. He actually is on my list already. But I value the smarts in this forum so I posed the question. Glad I did.
  11. I'll take a look-Thanks for the info. The only real strong options I must have are windows INTEL and an Nvidia graphics card, no intel or other graphics. Don't want a touchscreen either but I imagine most if not all have an option to disable the touchscreen
  12. Wanting a laptop (my present one is 16 yrs old running W8.1) I only record 1 track ata time and really want it mostly for using CWBL and playing back and editing. I use all VSTS, except for my vocals, electric and acoustic guitars. My present laptop, old, is an Asus i7 and has lasted 16 long years but really not sufficient and also will not take win 10 or 11. I really want a modern laptop. I am getting up in years and $$$ is not a big concern for me right now. I have been building my own desktops since, well forever it seems, but laptops, uh nope. I do prefer NVidia graphics, I know that raises the price but thats OK. I do like Asus products, but am open to suggestions Thanks very much for any ideas.
  13. Short answer is the Focusrite control is severely lacking, for me anyway. To explain better, My old trusty echo Layla 3G had the perfect PC app-you could see EVERYTHING all at once, You can adjust everything easily. The focusrite 3r gen 18i20 with a similar interface would be ok. But also I monitor thru a mixer and use the OUTS from each channel into the mixer to monitor in the room when creating\learning whatever. The output signal from the outs of the 18i20 are so low it's basically useless my needs. Of course hen recording I use headphones. so mainly the computer interface (focusrite control) just sucks imho. Sad because the hardware itself is fine except for the low output I mentioned but I could live with that if the interface were better. I definitely will not be buying any bus powered AI. I know the SSL 18 would be super overkill for me but the PC interface is perfect. I sold a guitar I didn't use anymore so I do have the $$$ but of course they are not in stock yet. I appreciate all the input and advice folks so thanks very much.
  14. Ridiculous. CWbyBL is not only free but IMHO is on par and better than many of the supposed big boys.............It's a killer daw. The only downside is we have no idea when the Sonar SUBSCRIBE think tank will end CWbyBL..............
  15. Also, Filmora by Wondershare, is a killer video editor and has great tools to align\sync the audio with the video. That is the main reason I purchased it. Great app imho. It's not free but it is inexpensive and has tons of tutorials. I believe their is a free 30 day trial without limitations. Used to be anyway........
