I'll give Screensets a try, it's been years since I have. Strangely when I right click the control bar and choose "Modules" I don't see Screensets in the list like I used to. Any idea why it's not showing up? Can screensets be globally disabled?

Many times when I'm doing a mix, which I do with the track and clip pane in view. I set the size of the vocal track bigger than other tracks and have things like guitar fills, piano fills, backup vocals a little smaller in track size. I have a zoom level that's good for seeing everything set also. Then I find I need to work on a track, like if I hear a noise on the vocal. I then maximize it so I can see the waveform good, I may greatly zoom in. Once it's fixed I'd like to return to the view I had previously. Sometimes hitting the U key will return to the previous view, yet if it's a zoom or more complicated then I have to go back and resize the tracks. What's the best way for me to save this view in this particular song once I have it the way I like it and then how can I return to that view. I think a long time ago I tried to solve this with Screensets and Worflow view, but I have a feeling things have changed and I can do this I hope Any suggestions?

I wasn't aware of Google Translate. I just tried it on the Russian text - so quick and easy. Great tool

I had a Sonar project from 2008 and copied it all into CbB, but the tempo wouldn't copy. Tried it 2x. Someone else, replying to my thread in Feedback 2021.06, was successful. If you're using the latest version go ahead and post in the Feedback 2021.06 Maybe they'll fix it

I have an AVB Ultralite. In 2015 got it , a new computer, running Win 8, which was new for me going from Win 7. it took me about a year before I had a stable system. I ended up sending the first one back after almost a year. They were very good about sending another one even though I was a little over a year. A power surge took out the LAN. MOTU is more Mac centered, but they finally got it together and it's been super, no issues for 5 years. The mixer and routing are complex and confusing, but extremely powerful

Mark, your answers are in this thread. Read all of scook posts and mine also. More than likely you didn't install the 64 bit V-Vocal and need to do a partial install of something, ether Sonar 8.5, X1 or X2. If I recall it's 8.5 64 bit. V-Vocal works perfectly with CbB. Using my method you'll never get a crash. I have Melodyne Assistant and essential, but still prefer V-Vocal

thanks I signed up

Yes this is exactly what I was talking about. This isn't the same one I used years ago. It appears that one closed down. This one is by Best Service and they seem to have all their products on there. I'm impressed that they even have some competitors products there, like Ivory pianos and Vienna Instruments. They plan on adding more. This is a new website service in it's public beta phase. This is very good I hope we see more of this in the future.

You're on to something, but I think it was Try a Synth to the best of my recollection
-
Yes those techniques have saved me most of the time. I tend to save as a different file name (1,2,3,etc) Yet today I played some tracks and after the drums I quantized it and accidentally had the piano part selected and quantized too. It messed up the piano parts in spots, so I had to replay it. No huge deal, but it did remind me about saving undo history and how I wanted that feature for a decade or so. The only reason I can think not to do it, is file size, yet who cares about that anymore with these 6T HD's so cheap
-
Sometimes it can be a big problem when something happens and we save the file and later open it and wish we could hit undo. As cheap as HD space is I can't imagine anyone not wanting to save the undo history with the file, yet there can always be a box to add a check mark to save undo history or not to save it.
-
The name doesn't matter. I'm glad you told me it was closed. Too bad there's not another, it was very cool

Years ago I used this website that would enable you to try out different soft synths. I tried Ivory, Symphobia and others. I don't remember the name of it and if it even exists anymore. It would enable your mid keyboard to play some presets. Of course the samples were all online and this only worked for maybe a few hours or a day at the most. Does anyone remember this and is there any website like this anymore?

How do you do it?

In the Track Pane: Volume, Pan, Gain, Aux1, etc are all the same blue color. We used to be able to change the colors of these parameters years ago in Sonar 8.5. They were all different colors and it was so easy finding them. Last I checked many years ago in 2017 when I was editing Themes, different colors were not available in the Theme to change. Does anyone know if these now can be different colors?

I have the Theme in my public folder of OneDrive. I added a Logic Theme folder. So I'll leave it there indefinitely in it's own folder, since it won't cause confusion with many files to sift through like I mentioned before https://onedrive.live.com/?id=C256E2DAE26B22A5!473&cid=C256E2DAE26B22A5 What I like about the theme is it's very functional, practical and easier to read and find things. I want trying to be cool - ha ha. Actually I missed a lot of the functionality of Sonar 8.5, which was lost when they decided to be cool. This is in some ways similar. Let me know how you like it
-
Yes I'll be happy to post my theme. My MS OneDrive sometimes gets full of other stuff. if I post it there it may be a while before anything else is uploaded there, so I'll do it. Unless someone has a suggestion. It seems to me Cakewalk should have a file area where users can post their presets, etc. maybe scook knows a good place to post it

And thank you for your patience and trying to help. scook and Colin helped immensely. So nice to have such expertise here

I got my theme completely updated. Once I got the work done on "Inspectors", there wasn't much left to do. I went through Morten's list and found 90% of the elements were grayed out, indicating there were no tweaks to those parts of the Theme and no need for copy and paste. I also found a quick way to copy and paste. For instance in "Inspectors" there's Clip Tab. Once you locate that in the Tuncury theme, you can select it on the left in the tree. You can either right click the image on the right of that and choose copy or just right click the tree entry of Clip Tab and choose copy there. Same with paste. It's a little quicker doing it this way, but either way works. I opened my new Logic Theme and it all looks exactly the same but ProChannel now shows up in the Inspector like it used to. Thanks scook and Colin and all. This will be a great tutorial post for others like me that were foggy on the Theme Editor. Once you get into it it's not hard.
-
In my Logic theme some of the elements are grayed out in the left folder tree. For Instance - Meter/key View. Does that mean there were no Theme changes to that element, so there's no need to try to copy and paste it? Thanks for your excellent help - this will make a great tutorial for others like me with a minimal Theme knowledge.
-
I went through all the changes in "Inspectors" and when I copied Track tab (small), paste wasn't available for that. It was greyed out. Is that because these were later additions to CbB and not present in my 2017 theme? None of the (small) tabs were able to be pasted. I assumed all the Arranger tabs and Tempo tabs were not needed since those are very recent additions, right?
-
I have both Themes open in different Theme Editors. This time I was able to copy then paste into Logic. So do I need to go through Morten's list and do the same for every element? Or do I use View and select Modified, Images and Filter to see what elements were modified first? And then only replace the ones that were modified or do I need to replace every single one?
-
Thanks for the great clarification. This all makes sense. The only question I have is how do I copy and paste from Tuncury to Logic. I can right click an element, like Clip tab, in Tuncury and can choose copy or export and when I go to Logic if I right click Clip tab I don't see Paste, only remove and import. How do I copy and paste?
-
Your method is so straightforward and easy to simply delete the element in this case - Clip tab. I noticed others saying they'd open 2 instances of Theme Editor and copy and paste elements back and forth. Is there any advantage to doing it that way as opposed to your simpler way? And if so, I found no way of opening the Mercury theme. I see no FTH file with that name only Tungsten. At first Morten's list seems overwhelming, but on closer view there are a lot of duplicates. I would assume it's best to start at the top of the list and go down and skip the duplicates. Thanks for all your excellent help,
