Pathfinder

OK since I am leaving anyway I have to say, I was signed in MORON that's part of the point-JEEEEZZz the arrogance is unreal!

I explained what happened but I guess your just so intelligent it's below you to understand. Couldn't be easier to go away either instead of just kicking a man when he's down-thanks pal This does it for me-I don't need this level of heartless Bs

No see my previous post

No John, I did NoT ignore it. I thought I activated it when prompted-thru the web and thru the bandlab assistant app. I guess what I was doing inadvertently covered\hid the warning box. But hey, what do I know.

I never had the chance until it was too late. But I guess I am not explaining that part correctly. Once again, my fault. What's the use, obviously what happened is coming across correctly-. So to have bothered anyone. Doubt I will return so you can all rejoice since NONE of your replies were an answer to the issue or actually understood the issue.

It was too late. The activation dialog was hidden before I realized. Nope. I am using the same CWbyBL I have been using-period.

So why is this a big fricken joke for everyone. I guess I'll have to apologize for the multiple diseases\ailments I have, many that affect my memory among many other things. Gosh I am so sorry I have these. I mean I didn't buy them or anything They came to me free. I truly hope they never visit any of you! Never felt the urge to share stuff like this with a forum but now I do. Hopefully I can get by without the forum going forward. I sure will try. And YES Heathrow, I use to love the CW forums, way back when Glennbo, Susan and others were around. Hey maybe you guys can come up with a song, maybe name it "Way Too Much META and MYELO". Might be a hit! I can give you some other catchy ideas for titles, no problem. Just let me know. I have plenty! Thanks so much for nothing!

Why would I keep it to myself if I tried everything I knew and could not get it activated? That I truly do NOT understand John. Excuse the hell out of me for not being as a CW genius..................Used to love the CW forums. Used to............... ?

Yes, so? What's your point? I tried and tried multiple times top activate it.

Free or not should not be this difficult-YES I finally got it sorted out. Just shouldn't be this way! Like many others I have been paying since the 90's..............

Cann0ot believe no one knows. Oh well, back to reaper I guess!

Yes I remember seeing posts about activation issues but since it never happen to me I never paid attention. So did a whole bunch of work in a project and cannot activate. I have logged in and out multiple times on the web and also in the bandlab app etc etc. Finally just closed CW and lost everything. Still not activated?

Nope. It worked pretty well for over a year in the jungle as a an Airborne Pathfinder. I was very good at my job-thanks! Also something very close to my heart and not funny to me!

Thanks-Just curious about it. Wouldn't mind a non functional peek for now

So, I guess John V was serious about SHH don't tell anyone???????????????????????????????????????????

OK-I do not see any download area for Sonar? I am sure it's there considering this thread but WHERE? Thanks

My Sound canvas works great with a simple Roland UM 1 midi cable-yes din connector, not a big deal for me. But I am a midi guy from the 90's.. I would never use the sounds from TTS-1 or my sound canvas in an actual finished project..

Been using CW with Kontakt forever. Been on 7 since it came out. No issues at all. It's not CW obviously! Just sayin. If it's YOUR system, why would you expect a difference in Sonar? I hope you get it worked out!

The CM-5 also supposedly is\was marketed as C12\ELAM251 clone. You are correct-tony Joe white song was just an example of songs I sing. since Tony jowe White sings very low where bob seger sings kind of high and so does CCR. But I do know I was very happy with the CM-5, just made a bad move selling it. Especially since I did not need the $$$. I did buy some mics from Sweetwater a while back and return them. I have had a Sweetwater Plat card since 2002. Last one I tried was the Shure SM7b. To me it was a nothing mic and my Shure SM58beta sounded much better on my vocals. Tried, as mentioned the Mohave MA-200. Sent it back. all the time I still had the CM-5. The only one I saw on reverb\Ebay was for $500 plus shipping and tax. I sold mine locally for $150---dumb, dumb, dumb. I was looking at the warm audio wa-47 for a while. Still on my list. I have tried the neuman 102 and 103-did not like them Anyway, still the only mic BESIDES, believe it or not, that I liked besides my CM-5 is my trusty SM58b. I like how a tube mic reacts and duplicates my voice in a recording. Plain and simple!. why? Who knows. I appreciate all the input. If I could afford it I believe I would buy Telefunken ELA M 251E Large-diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone but $12,000 is way out of my range. I have looked at the cheaper ones in the $1,500 range. Still looking!

Everything from Rainy Night in Ga-Tony Joe white style to Hollywood Nights by Bob Seger-kind of a screamer. Blues and R&B are where I like to sing and play. Started out playing finger-pickin folk songs after Nam-James Taylor, Croce, stuff like that. Even had a stint in a jug band. Most of the cover bands I was in did what we wanted-we didn't conform to the radio. But we still worked all the time. Many bands like that. Everything from Billy Joel to Ride Like the Wind to Bob Seger, CCR, traffic, Alman Bros and lots of old Soul stuff like dock of the bay. I was always the lead or co lead singer in these bands, trios etc. I prefer Blues and R&B-great for singing for real and playing lots of cool stuff on the guitar. I am a singer 1st, Guitar player 2nd(although I have been playing guitar for over 40 years) and definitely recording engineer in training (on my own) I have had many mics and recorded thru them all. Best mic (money wise) I ever had was the Mohave MA-200, so nothing really high end by studio standards. But My trusty old Stellar CM-5 ((C12/ELAM251 Inspired) I mentioned above was my favorite. Big old tube mic-heavy. But my voice just liked this mic and the mic liked me. I sold it for really NO REASON at all and kick myself for doing it. There is one on Reverb for $500 but I wouldn't take a chance on a mic like that from reverb USED. I do have a powerful voice I guess-loud but growing up singing folk songs I also have a tame voice. I use the mics well. I know when to back up, move up etc. I have watched many youtube videos of mi comparisons but on youtube they all sound the same to me. Right now I am recording using a wave Audio WA-87r2. I don't like it at all on vocals but it is nice on acoustic guitar stuff. All of my recordings are Vocals (me), guitars Electric and acoustic(me), and lots of VSTS for Bass, Drums and keys. Well their you go-my life in a nutshell-

So the thread and question I asked is ignored so you can post what you want? Very logical.

Thanks but I never asked for suggestions. Only asked about ONE mic- period!

Hey duncan I had the original Stellar CM5. I sold it for no reason at all. I would love to have that back. Big mistake on my part. As I stated I am partial to tube mics for MY vocals. Thanks for the info!

Once again, I was NOT asking for recommendations. I was ONLY asking about the Lewitt Pure Tube-Hmmmm? BTW-If I could afford a $4K mic I would love to have one-I cannot ? The Sondelux 251 looks like a great mic!

My mileage definitely varies-My vocals are much better with a tube mic. I have tried many, many mics at friends studios etc. Tube vocal mics just have something that tubeless mics cannot touch imho. But honestly, I was just asking about the Lewitt Pure Tube
