OK. So obviously you know what contributes to needing an authorization and also the time frame? Please let us know then. Thank You. sorry, I am just not happy with the direction they are taking. I don't mind paying for something, I have paid for CW for over 30 years. I just don't like the restrictions and BS thrown in with it. excuse me.

You left out the part if your internet goes done you CANNOT AUTHORIZE this newest "whatever" 09. Also it's NOT that the server they use to connect to doesn't work anymore - They did this.

If I can BUY it outright (well you know, what software makers call Buying it -RENTING IT) I would. Subscriptions are BS imho. If it comes to that I will just adjust ALL my projects and use Sonar Platinum...................... Like I said, I would BUY it outright, probably no matter how high the price-

I am just going to exclude them in CW Plug mgr as suggested above. I appreciate the info. Imay be moving away from CW because I just have this feeling they will go a subscription type thing like Gibson tried. I refuse to play that game. I have been using CW since the early 90's.

Come on man--No.....................

OK- I just found it on an old backup in a closet???? It's called VST Inventory and was made in the Sonar days. But, I guess it isn't working correctly anymore. It states it finds all VSTS in Cakewlk plug i manager. But I have over 500 vsts and it only lists less than 200. I have all the Izotope newest versions (V10's) and none of them show up. I will try and find out why. The info it gives is great. EDIT: Bummer-Guess it only does Sonar and also if you have more than one version installed it only does the latest versions VSTS. Wish someone could get it to look at CWbyBL ?

Hi Had his app before I built my new PC. Must have deleted it. It was a small app that cataloged your installed VSTS . Pretty sure it was a small cakewalk app created by a CW user. I think it only worked in CW, but I am not sure about that. Sine I have used CW since the erly 90's, who knows. But it worked fine on win 1`0x64 Pro last year when I had it. Great little app. Anyone remember this? You run it just like any disk catalog app. Or is there a NEW one. Thanks

Hi Wish I had done things different, but hindsight! I have appx 500 VSTS. But around 33% are VST2'as that have a VST3 installed. Is there an easy way to remove them? I was thinking the only "somewhat" easy way is to remove them in CW plug Utility menus just so they don't show up in projects etc, when searching for a pug in. Would this be the best way? hope this makes sense folks. Thanks in advance Frank

OK Thanks folks------Appreciate the help!

I remember I used this for some scratch stuff quite a bit. I have the app but I cannot find a serial number. I did check CCC. Did this come with a Sonar package? Does anyone know? Thanks in advance

Thanks folks. I thought I HAD chosen the path I wanted. Guess I didn't. I have fixed it all now. Appreciate the help nd suggestions as always

Thanks......

I really want to move ALL the Native Instrument crap to E:\. Should I just uninstall and start over? I see I could have changed the content location, of course after I already installed everything.

So Got Kontakt 7 upgrade from 6-yes I know, probably pretty much the same but I like latest greatest or whatever. Anyhow, once again Kontakt used a mind of it's own and installed ALL conent (45gb or so to the C:\User\public docs folder. I don't get it. Native instruments, I love kontakt since version 1 but their install process sucks. You MUST use native access (it seems) No customize in native access. So I have see attached pict. I know from this website J link is the way to go. So, using Win explorer I moved Kontakt Factory Library 2 to my sample drive E:\Sample Disk. So is this the correct command? mklink /j “C:\Users\Public\Documents\Kontakt Factory Library 2” “E:\Sample Disk” Thanks

since I posted I got 5.66 and liked it OK. I will look for 5.8-Thanks as always!

John What version of WinAmp is the screenshot? As I stated, I tried the newest release and it did not work for me? Thanks

Also I use use PCSensor USB footswitches. work great for me. very cheap also.

Well, figured let me try winamp. All I get are script error after script error and then window about accepting cookies and I cannot accept or decline or see what they are. Guess I'll try something else. also looks nothing like the screenshot cactus put up. Think mine was 5.9 or so?

Definitely NEED to have control over stop and stop of individual tracks\songs. Thanks for the info.!

Not trying to steal the thread, but this would be important for the op also. Curious, is winamp still (as in today) the choice for playing wav files live as backing tracks or is there something better, well, newer not better. I am getting back into my one man band thing again and looking for options. Thanks

BTW, You also might want to look into a USB foot pedal for start\stop. I have 2 different ones. I use one since I am a guitar player to keep my hands free. Been doing that for many years. They are very cheap and most can be set to trigger any keyboard command you need. example: In CW spacebar to start\stop.

Well your ridiculous replies are why he posted what he did. Then you got worse. You contradict people then in the next breathe say I have no idea what that is. YTOU need to learn. John V gave you great advice right at the beginning.. Jeeezzz.

Thanks for the offer. Scooks post did it. who knew? I sure didn't!

This was the issue. Thanks Scook!!!!!!!

I need to correct my post. The midi track with the info is showing levels but the level meters on dim pro synth are NOT. I have stuck with it since, oh, it was introduced way back when. AFAIK, Dim Pro doesn't need a midi channel specified. I never have before. Oh well. Just do not understand why it stopped working. multisample Paths are correct in register. Not sure where MIDI INFO in would be zeroed in dim pro or anywhere else? Nothing on the midi tracks.All controllers have been removed.This is just not one patch\multisample. It is all of them. Anyway thanks for the reply!
