No-New. Mics are probably the ONLY musical stuff I will not buy used

Actually it is MORE expensive and in MOST stores quite a bit more..... That aside....$$$ is not an issue in this for me- I appreciate the input-Thanks

Wrong Forum Sorry ? Well not now it was moved here where it should be!

Just a small home studio for myself. I have a shure sm57, Sm58b and a Warm Audio WA-87r2 and a WA-47. WA-47 for vocals. I was looking t add a good NON tube condenser for vocals mainly and thought the AKGC414 XLII would be perfect. is it a good choice considering what I already have? Never owned an AKG mic before. When researching this model kept showing up. The Wa-87r2 and the shures are great for instruments-especially acoustic guitar. The WA-47 Tube is great for vocals. Thanks

I just checked Tom and you can set the MP3 quality to your liking. Mine i set at 320kbps!

One easy way is youtube. Many options but I have found that 4K Youtube to MP3, which costs a whopping $15 is a great tool. You can also get the audio without this app but i like how easy it makes it.

Me Too Larry!

Both are working now? cool! Thanks to all!

Thought I did it correctly but keep getting the cannot process error. No big deal....I'll try the tool. Thanks

Well I tried, just using new key or string. Shows up in tool menu but I get the ever popular Cannot start process? I tried adding .exe to the path but that didn't help-Oh well.

Thanks-Is it a new string value Binary value, Dword, ?

I don't use it everyday but I always liked some of the sound it offered ? And Thanks!

Is this still doable with CWBL? I have Sound Forge 17 Pro (why I have no idea ) Guess there was a good upgrade deal form 11 Pro back a ways. It did come in handy for me sometimes in the past-mostly Sonar days. I have instructions somewhere saved in a backup. Thanks

So after all this-It seems, for the most part anyway-Rapture Pro needed to be Run as Admin as stated by Bristol and Wookie. So Rapture Pro works fine. dim Pro still does NOT work but Rapture Pro easily covers what I needed- Thanks very much folks! Great forum! Has been great for many decades-well, you know what I mean.

First we heard that the logistics for retail boxes, etc, etc, were the reason for the delay in a license. It goes on and on. I dare not say anymore. But as John V. explained in a video post it "SEEMS" the language on the Bandlab website says cwbl will continue and even have maintenance updates now and them so for now, for me, this will do. Do I want a sonar License for the New sonar-definitely yes, but I am content with CWBL staying alive................ With CWBL still alive for the foreseeable future my paid Reaper 7.xx and Studio One ( I think I have a lesser version, but not a trial) will just have to wait-hopefully forever for me ?

Thanks-Yes I have tons of space... I'll try launching both as admin also

That is where I did the re install from, but like I said above I thinkCW is confused. I don't mind re installing CW. The only plug I use from CW is TTS-1, which Plat installs. I have all my CW disks going back to CWPA 9- I upgraded every year until. I have all the sonarsx1,x2, etc and of course Plat.

Appreciate it Tom. But I have tried everything else suggested on this forum for quite a while. In another post I mentioned that I have a dedicated samples drive and just did a clean install of Win 10x64 Pro ( I have win 11 but like win 10) Anyway, way back when, 2021 I think I also did a new install (built a new PC, same as this time) and used mlink to move c W Content and other folders to the sample drive. Pretty sure the paths are all messed up. CW works fine ans so do ALL my other VSTS. Dim Pro not so much, maybe a handful of sounds. I also installed Rapture Pro. Figured why not try. anyway, none of them work. I searched the register and the paths seem fine including in CW prefs???? So, I think CW is just as confused as I am ?

So still wanting Dim Pro. If I uninstall CWBL, Dim Pro and anything else CW this will not affect anything else will it? I mean like my zillion VSTS (non-CW) Just want to be sure, I figure it doesn't, but!

Glad you got it solved. didn't mean to hijack your post...............

Duh! I had turned off the VST scan display when launching a while back. I turned it back on and the scan was stuck on the plugin causing the error message-Izotope RX10 Breath control-which I have never used. I removed it and all is well. Edit: Just an FYI: I do OWN RX10 legally, guess if i want to use it I need to re install it-Thing is, it gets installed thru the Izotope Product portal

Neve seen this message but it happens when launching the CWBL. NO projects, just the program. But the error message gives me no hints?

For clarity: from years ago and and 2 PCS ago I have a CW content folder on my sample drive. The screenshot show the content of the folder. i don't use it but I guess i should just delete it and re install CWBL and Sonar Plat- I like having Plat installed also. I haven't directed anything to the sample drive as far as CW goes but maybe its happening anyway. I know dives are huge now but I have so many LARGE samples (scarbee basses-all of them, toontrack-all of them, etc, etc, et, that I really do need (want?) the sample drive. Where should the Cakewalk Content folder be? or should it be at all anymore?

Yes and I also tried all the things you and others have mentioned in other threads. See my reply to John V above. and Thanks!

I installed rapture session and rapture pro (the paid version) Neither one works for me. I have re installed many times and the only things I can think of are: 1- I use a separate sample drive and 2- I have CW content on the sample drive also. I probably should start over with CWBL install and not move anything until things work correctly. I am pretty sure it has to do with the paths between the programs, sfz's and the samples.
