    CRYING

    Heard this a few times, and really appreciate what you’ve written here, the arrangement is amazing, and your vocals always deliver . . . just had to reply and support you . . . super piece !!
  2. @IgoRr @Jonathan Sasor Thanks guys for the replies and tips ! Bonus screenshot ! I did not know this feature existed, never used it . . . when I remove the "untitled" text it works just like my other projects. I guess this was caused by opening an older project from before this feature ever existed, it defaulted to "untitled" Appreciate your help very much !
  3. When I need to add some delay (usually on vocals or guitars) Sonitus Delay is still my go to Delay Plugin . . . it just works, has great and well defined starting presets, and intuitive stereo controls. Would be great to keep it going. Here's my support chant: VST ! VST ! VST !
  4. When I open Sonar to continue working on my project the next day . . . in the Quick Start Screen, it has added "(untitled)" to the end of the project name. It's just this older project I've started up again, all the newer projects I'm working on don't add "(untitled)" My research uncovers the reason it adds this is because "project hasn't been given a specific name" . . . "This can happen if you start a new project and don't save it with a unique title. The software uses "(untitled)" as a placeholder to indicate that the project hasn't been named yet." As I mentioned, it is an older project, and totally has a unique filename. If I do a "Save As" with a different filename . . . that new filename shows up in Quick Start Screen with the same "(untitled)" appended to the end of the filename. So, what am I missing here, how do I get rid of this ? Inside the project folder, file naming is correct, there are no project crashes, crash dumps . . . it's just the Quick Start Screen.
  5. Jesse . . . just an echo here of all the great comments above . . . had a few listens, and always appreciate a well written song, which this totally is . . . thanks for posting it here !

    Passages

    @bjornpdx . . . a well painted journey Bjorn, much enjoyed my listening ! I recognize that Omnisphere sound, and also heard a fluttering synth sound reminiscent of Jean Michel Jarre (from when we were kids) . . . always good to hear new things from you.
  7. Mark, sounds excellent ! . . . sounds like you have a main theme and then variations of that theme. Overall, it's a very "lay back and chill" listen, I really enjoyed all the guitar creativity. My main suggestion (if you wanted to make it more into a song format) would be to somehow get back to that guitar riff you start out with (right when the drums first kick in) . . . that's the money right there, very catchy, and stood out strongly to my ears. I can hear a lot of vocal possibilities as well . . . so hope you explore that as well. Great stuff, as always Bruce
  8. Sonar Platinum was the last version that included Rapture LE (DX) . . . at some point, not sure when . . . there was a paid version called Rapture Pro, which had patches from Dimension Pro and Rapture . . . the version I have is VST3. You can still open those projects in Safe Mode, bypassing Rapture, correct ?
  9. Steinberg Built in ASIO driver was supposed to be an alternative ASIO driver to use when you don't actually have another ASIO driver. I had the Steinberg Built in ASIO driver installed, it caused great havoc for me . . . I uninstalled it, but it came back with something I recently updated I think. This driver simply does not work with Cakewalk, I had it on my laptop, and Cakewalk Sonar refused to open at all, monkeyed for an hour to get rid of it, and updated to Sonar's most recent version, finally gone, hope it don't come back . . . again. @Multi-Sonik . . . FYI, I also installed Spectra Layers, but it was a long time ago . . . updates to Steinberg products seem to bring back this dreaded driver !
  10. @bjornpdx . . . Bjorn, the picture and the relaxing nature of this track transport me to the old west, very cool. You've caught that classic old west melody very effectively in the guitar. When I hear this kind of piece, it always reminds me of the movie soundtrack to "Legends of The Fall", which set the standard . . . well done, I enjoyed this one !
  11. Hi Tom . . . think I've got some mix help on the way, glad you had a listen, and like the song idea . . . yes, some good suggestions above to help make it better.
  12. Wookiee . . . sorry you don't like it, I'll endeavor to do better next time., but I'll be happy you think the mix is fine.
  13. Thanks so much Bjorn, Lyrics may be the best thing, until I fix the mix . . .
  14. You have to be careful what marketing you click on, if they have your credit card on file, I clicked on something to boost my song post, but it appears there is a charge for that . . . I got 4 likes and only 1 listen, I love the new Sonar version, and the new features, but the BandLab thing is a disconnect for me so far . . .
  15. @Chaps Thank you, I have had some other comments about that lead guitar volume level, will try to fix that . . .
  16. @Bajan Blue That's a very helpful mix comment Nigel, so I'm still working the mix idea . . . I wrote it, then mixed it too many different ways, probably got lost along the way, hope to fix it soon, thanks for your valuable input !
  17. Steve, your musicality always wins me over, some interesting chord change ups, super mix, amazing solo . . . enjoyed the listen ! "My heart is locked you hold the key", nice . . .

    Celestial

    Hey Jerry . . . very effective mix of synth and symphonic, well done ! (Not a fan of the opera vocals, but it kind of works in this format for me, with the video in back)
  19. Yes, big sounding mix . . . well done, enjoyed this, and the street busker in the video . . . some excellent vocal tracks here !
  20. Oh I love the way this sounds ! Just sings out to eardrums in a very pleasant way. I heard this before, and glad to see you're still refining the mix, great stuff Gary.

    Parachutes

    Another well done Nigel ! You've really got the vocal clarity in this mix, overall sounds excellent on my monitors, and I'm liking the song idea very much !
  22. Hi folks . . . Here's another new one I've been mixing for the last while . . . some more on my familiar theme about my ugly long commute, who knew it would be such inspiration for songwriting ? Let me know how it translates, on your systems, and your brains . . . Bruce

    Simple man

    Hi Paul . . . you still got that rock'n'roll attitude in your lyrics, and the vocals and guitars totally deliver. Very much enjoyed !, reminder of my youth. This one also has a good feel overall, some nice rock drums complete with hard hitting tom fills, nicely done.
  24. What about the XSampler ? or, does no one use that ? Have any decades old issues been sorted? . . . the list is very extensive, maybe yours are in there.
  25. @mark skinner . . . those fingers speak a language beyond compare, and your recording is always impeccable, you meticulously get rid of the frequencies that don't belong, leaving a masterpiece in the end . . . always inspiring to listen to, and hear it develop.
