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

You guys can really put out a tune! Wonderfully reminiscent of the Beatles, so happy! Timbo

Loved what you did with that song, oddly I was showing my daughters that song a couple of days ago. Just wow!

Wow, I had no idea! Thanks Mark.

Thanks Glenn, so you're saying it doesn't matter. I was especially worried about the MIDIOUT2 and 3 entries ...

Hi all, This list of devices seems to change from time to time. I have an AKAI Advance 49 connected as my MIDI controller, with a v1 Komplete Audio sound device, if that helps. Should I have any other Inputs and Outputs checked that aren't? Thanks! Timbo

Hi, Judging by your user name, we're both born in '58 and it's tough to be our age sometimes. Maybe I'm wrong with my assumption but it seems logical. I'm often a "get off my lawn guy" and have had many issues with being a newly forged senior citizen and with issues with the young folk out there and their newfangled ideas but I try to learn. I think we're all a bit afraid as we move into a new version of paid Cakewalk. Saying that, it scares me that I can look over to my shelf and see the Cakewalk Home Studio 2004 box and M-Audio Audiophile 192 that were my best Christmas presents ever and that they started me off on this wonderful musical journey that we're all on. But I digress ... My family and I spent the afternoon at this amazing place called the Donkey Sanctuary of Canada (https://www.thedonkeysanctuary.ca/). It was an afternoon that I will never forget. Donkeys are incredible animals, less inbred than horses, and sensitive like you and I. Don't worry, we all say stuff that we want taken back. Timbo

Thanks Kevin, Unfortunately speed doesn't overcome my lack of ability! Timbo

Good idea, I'll rethink the keyboard. It's happened several times this afternoon and is driving me nuts.

I thought I'd share the deets of a new DAW I bought the parts for. Actually my daughter assembled it cuz my eyes and fingers don't work so well anymore. I already had a Komplete Audio 6 (v1) interface and AKAI Advance midi keyboard and didn't change them, just the PC. With an old i5 system I was frustrated with project loading times and the system coming to a crawl for a song with 30+ plugins and lots of VSTs and VSTis ... I'm the type of amateur who likes to mix as he records and see where the song takes me. So it's made of an Intel Core i7-12700K on a Z690 AORUS ELITE AX with 32 gigs of Kingston Fury Beast RAM. I bought 2*2 TB SSDs as well. I can't think of what I got for a case, but it's darned quiet - funny thing is I haven't built a PC in so long I was surprised to find that most cases don't come with CD drives anymore! Getting old I guess. I cannot believe the difference between this and my several year old i5 ... the darned thing boots Win 10 in less than 15 seconds! I've never had an SSD before ... Cakewalk projects that took minutes to load now take seconds and I've been able to record and mix more easily without having to bounce tracks to audio. All of this for $1700 Cdn, say $1000 US or 1200 Euros or 1000 Pounds, and IMO a pretty good price. There have been some glitches with Cakewalk though that I've been unable to identify, the one that ticks me off the most is that the scroll lock stops working regularly and I have to hit the ScrLk key on the keyboard to get the screen scrolling again. Didn't change the keyboard, so there's something off somewhere. So if you're tired of your old PC and have 1000 whatevers lying around under your mattress and want to fly me and my daughter to wherever you live ... the upgrade well worth it! The patrons at Tom's (tomshardware.com) helped me and my stupid questions and I'll give them a plug here if it's okay. Hope this helps someone take the leap, Timbo PS Kidding about the road trip, pay your PC store $50 and they'll assemble it. Then again, if you live in Bora Bora, we're up for the drive.

I actually meant the 10,000th post in this forum, but I like where you folks have taken this! We are at 98,471 and counting ...

All hail Bapu!

Not me!

Necroposting, I am now encountering the same problem with Melodyne 5 Editor 5.3.1.018 ...

Can't wait to hear it, I love overtures or whatever they call them these days. Probably memertures or something annoying.

I hear nothing wrong with this. Excellent job with the harmonies. The playing is mighty fine too. What an absolutely beautiful song.

Well done, Jonesy! This is genius ... Since you didn't have access to the Philharmonic, this is incredible with samples! I have glimpses in my little mind of music such as this but have never been able to pull off something like this, it's majestic! Tell us, how many tracks, how many instances of EWQLSO? How, how, how, WOW ...

This is excellent. Lordy this is well put together, from recording, to mixing and post-production. Props!

I have had the same issue with the invisible blobs for years now. Melodyne doesn't always play nice with CbB, IMO. Ditto for reverting to the simple algorithm. And I'll add that it doesn't remember when I set the time division , I always have to reset it to the smallest (1/32 T or something like that). I find it disappointing that it doesn't work as advertised with CbB, everything works fine in their videos!

Hi Daniel, That's the only way I can get it to work, too. It seems to be a "feature"! Timbo

Here's an easy check: Start Task Manager (Ctrl-Shift-Esc) before you start CbB and click on the CPU column so it sorts high to low. Then open a project and switch to Task Manager and see if your virus scanner (or some other application) goes nuts on your CPU. Timbo
