I really enjoyed this one Peter. This is a song that I've loved since it came out and you've done a great cover. With today's vocal processing, your voice sounds fine! It was a good idea to go up when you sang "cars", it drew me into the song. Mix-wise I really liked your drumming, but wasn't entirely happy with the sound, particularly the kick. Was this a close-mic'd kit? Or electronic? I did like the ending, if that was what you were referring to as a change, since I didn't hear the original mix. Thanks for sharing! Timbo

This sci - fi song came to me one day. https://on.soundcloud.com/RHPrpCDgJgQyfbxM7

jack, This was one of your better melodies and sounds. Plus the cool stuff you put in (like at :40, 1:24) and the total mash up at 2:47 ... really pulls the listener into the mix. The flute melody is beautiful but I found the cymbal overpowering in that part. A great ending too!

Wow, never heard of synthesizer V before, it looks and sounds amazing! Tim

Digging the groove, Glenn. Fun background vox and a great Frank-like solo! I really like the lyrics too. How did you do the bass and who sang the background vox? Tim

Late to the party but I get it when I close Cakewalk while a sampler is still loading samples from disk. Guaranteed.

OK, I have a paid version of X3. I'm worried that they're going to charge a lot (I'm good with a $99 one time license) and and doubly worried that they're charging folks to basically beta test the new version. I've never heard of that before. In my reading of the posts, that's what I've picked up on. Maybe I'm mistaken, Jonesey. Thanks folks!

This is probably a dumb question but does anyone know if there was a version of CbB that didn't have to call home to be activated? I'm guessing that there weren't any such versions, but if so, where can I find it? I don't think I'm going to move to the new Sonar, so far it seems that it's just GUI changes and why should I pay for those. So I'm looking for the most updated (since X3) version that will be free for forever. Thanks, Timbo

Dumb question and not trying to derail here but can I open CbB files with Sonar X3?

Glad you enjoyed Jack and Old Joad! Rock on.

Certainly like when it all hits at 1:28, and I'm a sucker for wah, you know! And I really enjoyed the ending, well done! Timbo

jack, this song is a time machine taking me way, way back. Loved what you did with the drums and your voice.

This is terrific! Loved the horns ...

Hi folks, In the last year I started struggling with lyric ideas. Finally, it dawned on me to write some material based on aspects of artificial intelligence and it's effect on humanity. It's provided me with a few new songs. This song is different than the music I usually do - it's a song with a funny story. Please enjoy. Hopefully it brings a smile or two to some faces out there. Timbo PS Made the song image by going to a free AI image-generating site and asking it to make an image based on "robot radiant pearl" ...

That's brilliant, thanks!

I wonder how the system let me do that?!

Tough one for me to explain. If I'm using SI - String Section's keyboard, can I record the midi that I'm playing with my mouse? Thanks, Timbo

And to all a good night!

Thanks for the 2nd video John, I've never understood how to use channels and finally get it! Tim

I enjoyed this Steve, didn't know what to think as I clicked on the link. You got a great sound on the bass guitar, how did you do it?

Excellent Simpson!

I get that message when I try to mixdown to a file that already exists, and is already open in another application. That's what Mark was trying to tell you. If you can't figure out what has it open, then reboot and immediately mixdown and tell us if that doesn't work. Tim

And me too (sort of), being born and raised in Montreal, I used to be completely bilingue. So Sylvain, if you saw it listed on the vst manager then it's got to be somewhere on the CbB "insert synth" or "synth rack" listing. Have you tried going through each entry on the list of VST3 plugs?

Hi Sylvain, You may be looking for "Play" under the wrong name when you try to load it. Can you load the VST manager (probably not the right name either!) and find your plugin there, and note the name that it will appear under in Cakewalk? The VST manager is on the menu somewhere, and it's not the one that you find in Preferences. Alternatively, there's a way to find it in the Windows registry, but that's more complicated. Hope this helps, Timbo
