Yeah, this sure took the fun out of this "free" plugin!

Thanks Sidney... I had a funny feeling with this one. I liked it too but also found my normally stable machine misbehaving. Suspecting that the uninstall would not remove codemeter I immediately found and removed it. A full reboot later and my machine is once again well behaved! Kiss that one goodbye!

Thanks... Yeah... between the many issues and if any, not yet responded from the company as their' supplied serial number keeps reporting as invalid. I've contacted them, but no response... yet? We'll see. In the meantime I started experiencing some audio anomalies today and I'm still trying to track them down. New plugins are always suspicious... So I decided to uninstall it and discovered that it did indeed install codemeter with no prompting or other mention. I've removed both... I had two of the worst machine lockups I've ever had on this normally very stable machine all day. twice forcing me to Hard Hard reBoot in order to recover. The anomaly still occurs and I'm now eliminating a few plugins I don't often use...

All very interesting but it turns out I saw no mention of codemeter during the install itself?

Thanks. Interesting that it didn't appear during the install. Having trouble getting it to accept the supplied serial number.

Thanks Jim... That's what I was hoping to hear... I'll give it a try. If you're interested it's free from Rhodes through APD... It appears to be an automated panner related to the Rhodes chorus panning maybe? Here's the d/l link https://deals.us15.list-manage.com/track/click?u=63ba9268d7ed400d7bd933660&id=c35a4d1426&e=22fd0c11f1 I'm gonna install it now...

Thanks Jim... Is it relatively benign? This is a software version of Codemeter. I'm guessing similar to iLok on the desktop?

I just got an offer from APD for a free plugin from Rhodes called V-Pan... I downloaded it but haven't installed it yet as there's a note during the d/l telling of the installation of codemeter software for product registration/regulation which made me stop short. I didn't begin the install... Remembering the past made me wonder if this is simply another manufacturer's typical program, or more potentially problematic as it is a 3rd party software. So I thought I might ask around about Codemeter before proceeding. Interesting enough as the plugin appears to me, system disruptions are far more concerning and the plugin isn't worth the risk at the moment....? Anyone...?

Wow! Mike! Thrilled to hear from you. We've all been searching for you with no luck. Now down to Stuarto and me. Glad to hear you're still playing. And still in California. I'm way north in Mendocino. Let's have a pm so we can exchange contact info!

Yeah, I felt that too, but that's the SD3 sample set. The chokes are all listed as articulations as they already have so many samples mapped to the primary map. Once realized though, and created (articulation maps for cymbals) it's relatively simple to deal with...

Thanks. I guess I forgot to mark it solved. I was so used to having it as an immediate part of the sample set offered that it took me a bit to reralize to access it as an articulation here which I did manage to do...eventually. 😉 But thanks for giving your time and thoughts here. I should have posted my results but I guess I forgot.... Oh, I posted my articulation maps in the appropriate thread here I believe...

There is no editing the themes in Sonar with the new graphics system used. We have been told there may be such in the future, but right now it's limited to the few items you see in Preferences|Colors. The change was from pixel based graphics to vector graphics and the old theme editor is not currently capable of dealing with vector graphics... We all wait with baited breath!

I've been having a much easier time with my virtual instruments. This release seems to be allowing a lot more resources for their operation.

Thanks Mark! Ahhh! Thank you thank you! I forgot to look there. I remembered having bounce to tracks but couldn't remember where it was! I'm gonna try this now... So far not working. It is only bouncing the audio... I'm gonna check my settings more and try again... Success! yes! Second try.... Simply didn't have track fx selected... Nice! Thanks Mark! both for the excellent creative tools work and for reminding me!

Thanks... Easy enough. You seem to think as I do saving original tracks... I keep all my Melodyne work tracks live and archived while usingcloned rendered copies.... So I can always go back!

Yeah... Something I haven't tinkered with in a long time. Today I used the TAL Vocoder to create a track and I'm now trying to freeze it with no luck. Is there some way to do this? Though not created a a pair of tracks for an instrument, it uses an audio track where the vocoder in inserted and a separate MIDI track to feed the correct pitches to the synth sounds but neither freeze nor bounce to clips (didn't we also have a bounce to tracks? I can't find that)) Anyone have any thoughts or knowledge on this? I'd love to hear from you! Thanks!

Funny, yes. ...because I still have O set to toggle offset mode. Never gets in my way as there are so many visual clues

Unless something's changed that I don't know of, you can edit any of the keyboard shortcuts by either adding commands to unused key-combinations or re-assigning existing links. Be Safe, safe your current shortcut settings prior to changing anything? Naming a track? When I double click on a track's name area in either CV or TV, it highlights the current text. Allowing access. if you use a single key such as arrow left. home, end, etc. the current info remains and can be text edited. If you simple begin typing while the original all is highlighted, what you type will replace what's there. Very standard fare. Am I missing something?

Not sure if this is the same or related, but I continually have to reset pre/post status of the PC. I save a template with the PC set to Post. Then at other time or place, insert a track using that track template (or using the song template to start something new. Depends on which I save) The PC is set to Pre (instead of Post as it was saved). This isn’t new though, it’s been that way in CbB as long as I can remember too.

Very true! Thanks Gregy!

Thanks craig!

Thanks Leadfoot... Yes. More than I can count!

Thanks treesha... Very true!

Thanks Old Joad!

Thanks henkejs!
