Yes, I have a Streamdeck XL and the new Streamdeck NEO. I use them for transport controls for Cakewalk but sometimes the MIDI ports get reassigned somehow which is a little frustrating at times. One of the things I would love to learn more about is programming macros and such, but it is an amazing device that is full of potential. There is no way to imagine doing livestreams without one ;^) Joyfully, Simeon

@msmcleod BRILLIANT! I think the HOLD TIME was my undoing. Since I am holding notes for a measure at a specific BPM this helps to calculate that offset and, in this case, 200ms worked a treat. This gives me a great start! Now if we could only do a regression on the LYRIC VIEW Melisma handling introduced in the SONAR PLATINUM days ;^) No, seriously, it really needs to be changed back to follow the General MIDI spec, as it is now it is maddening to try and deal with syllables that go across several notes. Thanks again for the help and the amazing work you have put into our beloved DAW. Joyfully yours, Simeon

I realized that my question might be a little too vague or broad, so how about this. EXPORTING SPLIT CLIPS IN A TRACK * RECORD a sequence of notes on an audio track * SPLIT the resulting longer clip into smaller clips to establish the individual notes. This would probably be done manually, or I think there was a way to have SONAR automatically DETECT SILENCE and then SPLIT the entire clip appropriately. * EXPORT the individual "split" clips into their own audio file from the SINGLE TRACK I have tried a few searches but have not discovered any good answers ;^) Thanks for the help. Joyfully yours, Simeon

Hello everyone, I have been working on learning how to create my own sample instruments, with my first attempt being a fun project I call, The "PING"! This is using some of the audio from the Boeing Starliner, where they picked up that crazy sound coming from the capsule which turned out to be some sort of audio misconfigured feedback, but it was enough to capture my imagination. I have seen a few videos from Venus Theory and Dave Hilowitz (creator of Decent Sampler), that show them using Reaper to record, slice and export their samples but I wondered how I could do this inside of Cakewalk. Thanks for any assistance, and while you are here, check out my introduction to The "PING"! (I have since updated it with more effects and GUI, and have a synth layer I am working on) Joyfully yours, Simeon

Which Is The Most Popular Interface Brand Overall?
Simeon Amburgey replied to Larry Shelby's topic in Deals
Bapu, My heart warmed a bit when I saw GINA. After my first SoundBlaster, there was Gina along with my Event 20/20p monitors, which served me well for quite a while. I then moved to one of the Presonus two channel interfaces, and then one of their larger 6/8 versions, then the Focusrite 4i4 3rd gen, then the Arturia miniFUSE 4 (which I really enjoyed using), THEN it’d happened! I found an RME BabyFace PROfs on EBay and have not looked back! It has been an amazing journey to be sure. Joyfully, Simeon -
@Vernon Barnes check this out. It is Angelic Keys from Orange Tree Samples $24 (Full Kontakt Required) This has “that” cool harpsichord like sound and might be exactly what you are looking for. I picked it up during one of the group buys. Enjoy! Simeon https://www.orangetreesamples.com/products/angelic-keys Angelic Keys captures the heavenly tone of a 53-key spinet harpsichord, also known as a virginal. The spinet harpsichord has a much quieter sound than a full-size harpsichord. Its pureness of tone is due to the fact that each key plucks a single string rather than unisons (multiple strings tuned to the same pitch to increase the instrument's volume). Because of its quieter tone, the spinet harpsichord also lends itself to smaller ensembles and makes it easier to blend in your mix. We've included the close and far mic positions as separate signals so that you can customize the sound of the instrument. For added realism, we made sure to preserve all the resonance and every buzz in the releases to recreate the true character of a spinet harpsichord. Whether you're writing 18th century classical music or hipster singer-songwriter tunes, Angelic Keys will make a great addition to your sound palette--and at a price that won't make you go baroque!

Today is going to be pretty wild. Vienna Symphonic Library is having what they are calling a Percussion Festival with up to 40% off their entire family of percussion instruments. I will be playing through many of them for the first hour and thanks to their generosity will be giving away quite a few of their collections (World Percussion, and many of the Big Bang Orchestra percussion titles). They have sponsored the first part of the livestream and have provided copies of the libraries for me to feature and give away. Also, taking a different turn to focus and relax, I will play through Cinematic Alpha's latest MEDIpads (two to giveaway). Should be a lot of fun. *Fracture Sounds and Cinematic Alpha have been a great support in providing their libraries for me to explore with you. Unfortunately I ran short of time and was not able to cover Homestead Piano but never fear I will have something soon, so stay tuned. I hope to see you later today!

Websampler $10 | The Internet is your sound buffet ;^)
Simeon Amburgey replied to Simeon Amburgey's topic in Deals
I was trying it on some of the free stock sound effect websites (PixaBay for example), and then dropping it into another sampler and it was a lot of fun. It is a great way to get material especially for sound design purposes. Sometimes if I need a bit of audio from a website, I use a separate downloader, but this eliminates a step and makes the process much more convenient. After Thursday this will be even a lot more fun to use as something really cool is coming that I can drop these samples into (stay tuned). -
Hello everyone, I have seen a few blurbs about this and thought I would give it a look. Web Sampler is like a VST3 that is actually a web browser but captures audio. You can adjust start and end times and drag and drop the result into a sampler of your choise. Some first experiences were a lot of fun. Here is the link: https://www.wxaudioplugins.com/websampler *of course use your newfound power responsibly ;^) Joyfully yous, Simeon

Green, Thanks so much for the suggestions. I went with the API Vision Channel Strip and LEXICON 224. Joyfully yours! Simeon

Got it! I just need to explore it a bit more but from my early tests, it sounds gorgeous. Capital Chambers for me is one of my favorites! Joyfully!

Mibby, It is truly a pleasure. One of the main reasons I prefer going live is that I am committed ;^) It also allows me to capture really special moments as well, and the idea of being able to share these experiences with such an amazing community just puts more wind in my Joyful Journey sails. I am trying to manage things so haven't been on as regularly as I have been but I look forward to seeing you on a possibly upcoming livestream. Thanks again, Simeon
