Thanks for the excellent deets Ross, The Kronos sounds are unbelievably excellent! and that harmochord is very cool. More Floyd please. Timbo

Brilliantly done,Ross. I particularly like the sound you got on your acoustic! Can you give up any secrets on recording and production? Only kidding here, but I'm glad you went off key in the same spots that Roger did. It would have sounded wrong if you'd pitch corrected it. Makes me wonder how they pitch corrected back in the day.

A bump before this post goes to oblivion. Can anyone reproduce this? Timbo

Hi, another silly question perhaps but a curiosity nonetheless. This didn't happen in CbB but does now in registered Sonar: I create a new project, load a VST (e.g. Scaler). I leave the project and alt-tab through my active programs, and although Sonar is closed, I see 2 windows that I can alt-tab to (although nothing happens when I do): 1) a small one that looks like a title bar Scaler 1 2 (Untitled Project1), and 2) a fuller sized one with a black background called Scaler 1 2 (Untitled Project1). When I repeat these steps in CbB, the 2 ghost windows do not appear after CbB has been closed. I'm wondering if this is a Windows 11 bug or a Scaler bug or a Sonar bug. Can anyone else reproduce this? Tim

The video was particularly useful. Thanks again.

Thanks so much, mettelus and t boog.

Oh thanks Max, it took awhile to notice the icon sitting there. So the plugins have to be individually enabled, then a project enable/disable will activate/deactivate them from what I understand.

Hi all, Thanks for your answers on how to get it to work. Now I'm lost on what it really means to oversample. Documentation says that "Plugin oversampling allows you to 2x, 4x, 8x, or 16x upsample any effects or instruments in the project to take advantage of higher sample rate processing without raising the actual project sample rate which can increase CPU load. By upsampling only plugins that benefit from high sample rates, you can keep your CPU load down while taking advantage of any sonic advantages of higher sample rate processing. Plugin oversampling automatically upsamples the data sent to the specified plugins and then downsamples the output back to the project sample rate. You can choose to do this in realtime during playback or only at render time." In your experience, does this upsampling produce a "hearable" difference in sound? I suppose my question is "what should I expect from using the oversampling"? Thanks, Timbo

Yes, I upgraded from free to paid and can access the oversampling now. And thanks to Bristol Jonsie I can get the help I do desperately need.

And did you have auto saves going? they're easy to load and later rename if you can find one that is good.

I feel bad for you, but all isn't lost, I hope. Can you open another file and does audio play back? Try opening your file again through Sonar's browse while holding the Shift key down. Say yes to all vsts except the offending one and report back ... Timbo

Brilliant, thanks. Why haven't they updated the link in Sonar?

More newb questions from me: Where can I find the documentation on Enable/Bypass Plugin Oversampling? Actually, where can I find the documentation? When I press Help = Documentation, I'm taken to http://legacy.cakewalk.com/Documentation/help.aspx?hid=0x184C5&prod=CakewalkSonar&lid=3, where I cannot seem to find Oversampling. Am I missing something here? Timbo

Brilliant thought. Hope this works out for all.

Ah, brilliant, thanks Jonathan!
