The Athanor Sound Labs mobile/ studio B is slowly dying. What out there would be suitable for running CbB without much of a struggle? Hopefully for around $500- 700. I can't make sense of all the different variations of processors, etc. This wouldn't be for anything heavy duty. Mostly audio with a few VSTis and not much in the way of sample libraries. Thanks in advance.

Well, duh.... That's not what it says at all. The window straddles the grid point, with half of it before and half after. NOT the same thing. "Strength" refers to how much notes are quantized while "window" controls which notes are. A Strength of 100% snaps every quantized note (as determined by the Window) exactly to the grid. 90% moves them 90% closer, 80% moves them 80% closer and so on. That's closer to the grid from where they are now. "Window" is where it can get counterintuitive because only notes within the window get quantized. With a window of 100%, all notes are quantized. Because it straddles the grid points, a window of 90% only quantizes notes that are within 45% before and 45% after the grid. Ironically, the more rhythmically accurate your performance is, the better results you will get. Much like pitch correction: the less you need it, the better it works. So if your playing is really sloppy - like my keyboard playing is - your quantize results can be quite unpredictable.

I finally made the plunge for 50% of the crossgrade price on BF. $125 is a smokin' deal.

That was great! I liked the way the addition of synthesizers and guitars, as well as your vocal style, gave it kind of a darkwave flavor that is quite different than the original which is just bass drums and vocals.

I thought the orchestration was really well done. After the first time the brass comes in, I like how it comes in and then drops out instead of continuing. I also really liked the way about halfway through the when the brass drops out and the whole orchestration Steven's way out and the dynamic gets so much quieter. That was really effective and really grabbed my ear. Completely unexpected.

Yes. The quantize function always works as expected.

It must not have been very important.

There's nothing wrong with quantize; it works exactly as it is designed. https://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=EditingMIDI.39.html This has been a feature probably since Cakewalk was a DOS program. I think if there was a bug in it there would be more reports than just yours.

This is one of the busiest forums I've seen. Steinberg's is a ghost town. There's threads on the FIRST PAGE where the most recent post is from 2018!

Re-record it and save money on aspirin.... ?

I wonder if it has anything to do with the size of the last project that was open?

What instrument do you have your MIDI track routed to?

What I've found is that it seems to only work if you have input echo enabled on both tracks. Additionally, you have to pay attention that input echo is enabled on only those tracks and no others or the results can be quite unpredictable.

My Hellraiser V is the guitar I play the most.

In fairness, the real thing is probably priceless. So comparatively speaking this would be quite the deal.... It is also available as part of the Cremona quartet which goes for four hundred bucks.

$149! And that's on sale. ?

Gotcha. No worries. One of the biggest drawbacks to the internet is missing all those subtle cues you get face to face....

Really? You actually timed it? In all actuality, probably nowhere near as much as if you chilled out a bit and quit counting every second. That's quite an impressive output. I can't see how having to wait a few seconds now and then has hurt you. Good for you. Meditation isn't supposed to be a contest, however. Sorry if I offended you, but I spent too much time in some of my former jobs with a clock held up to me like it was a gun to my head by office bound jackwagons with no clue about the realities of things on the shop floor that I have a strongly negative reaction to anything remotely resembling that kind of stopwatch clicking mentality. A minute or so would definitely be excessive but I think 16 seconds is barely noticeable.

Sixteen WHOLE SECONDS? Not to be an *****, but the only idea I have is to develop just a wee bit of patience.

Hmmmm... Right now, I have a project in the works with 5 or 6 instances of Voltage Modular and my computer doesn't seem to be breaking a sweat.

No? What's this here then? And if you need support from the company there's always: https://help.cakewalk.com/ Anyway, your "problem" isn't a technical issue, its user error. You have to extend the length of your project to accommodate the reverb tail.

Of course not. ASIO4ALL is known problematic.

Yep. Its an instrument.
