Or even a reinstall?

Ever since I found out about Sonobus, most of my songs have Sonobus in them. Many times I try to reset the connection and I can't click on anything. I have had this happen a few times to other plugins, but this always happened to Sonobus. When you load a song with Sonobus in it you always have to reset the LAN / internet connections. I have found I can delete it and put is back in again, but it is a lot of trouble to put the passwords back in. I have not seen this in Cakewalk. Thanks for any help.

1) Closed a song hit file open - File open reverting to Appdata\roaming\cakewalk\sonar Instead of where it is in the folders setup 2) After a few hours working on a song, the space bar quit working. Also, shift-F and CTRL-Shift H and Shift-H quit working. 3) 07-20-2024 I had a song open and had been working on it a little while. I went and loaded up Open Office Calc. When I went back to Sonar the Cursor Vanished (Was invisible) I haven't seen this one in a long time. 4) 07-20-2024 Sonar Vanished - I was working on a kick drum and all of a sudden the whole program vanished! No dump file nothing I have not been using Sonar too much. I was kind of waiting till the rough edges were polished. The graphics look better after the bakers did some work on it. I will report this with the problem reporter.

Some plugins are adding another folder layer to the installation. Like a .vst3 folder. You could try moving it up a layer and rescan. Hope that helps.

Not that I know of.

I noticed this too.

Was your autotune a permanent license or a subscription? Can you use it in a new project? If you need to edit them before this is resolved, just open in the safe mode. Hold down the shift key, then click to cwp file. Answer yes to all but autotune. Yes I understand. should Be able to open and edit it. Be sure to save under a new file name to preserve the original song file.

I have always hated articulations! I'm much better and faster at just playing staccato or legato. How many articulations can you have. LOL! For some things, you do need articulations.

I don’t know about 4. They have a trial you could get. I have been upgrading since v1. Even though I have never used them very much. I think smart limit is the one I have used the most. I can’t decide about this upgrade. They did add some un-masking in this one. That might be nice. Only $29 but I still need to think about the other 3 I bought that I done use lol. I would at least get the demo.

Yes I pull it up sometimes, but I just want to look down and 6 or 7. I don’t always scan as soon as I add a plugin, so there might be one more than I remember. I usually get coffee while it scans lol. I have a shortcut to the scan log.

Like a configuration entry?

I have the Abbey Roads ,CLA, Ocean Way (which I liked the best) and Acustica stuff. I tried each because it was the hype of the time. I didn’t use them very long, and haven’t used them in years. So, is VSX different enough to even consider?

Yes there are improvements from time to time, and bug fixes. Bundles like Mercury are always adding plugins for free. It is the best level to buy into waves, because of the WUP cap. This makes the WUP upgrade less than $1 per plug-in. Even with my meager income this is a bargain. As far as I know, waves are usable in any DAW you might think to use. Any studio that is descent will have waves plugins. I have some plugins still at v9. Must be time for me to WUP. That’s 6yrs no WUP no problems with mixed versions. Silly me I still use to Q10 released in 1992 lol

Bandlab who would have thought of this. It does work and it is free.

I tried for years to copy Eq curves from songs I really liked. I bought something from steinberg 15+ years ago. Since then I probably have 10+ others that I have tried. Stand-alone s from way back to Harbal! Good luck finding one that would exactly match your song. This does not work. There are great alternatives. Mcompare and ADPT Metric AB. Both have good and bad points about them Melda = It’s best feature is silence till volume match. It’s great! There are probably enough slots. Being able to mark songs to auto level each time you select them is a super nice feature (with a short silence). Metric AB = More song slots, filters to listen to high, middle, low Freq separately and compare. Easy selection of chorus, verse, bridge. It takes too long to match and you have to click the match every time. Layout is better. Lots of extra features! I love Metric features, but auto Volume matching is very important. Up to now computers can not do what your ear/brain can do. You can take either of these tools, load a song with a great snare in it, listen-compare. With moderate audio skills you can get very close to the that snare sound. (Excluding when there are serious masking problems.) Do a trial on Metric AB. I think Melda has trials too. Let us know what you think.

I read that some older plugins were not in the V15. (I thought that was odd????) There was a note - it said you could download older version on top of v15 if they were missing after your install. Sorry I don’t have the link.

It is lighter on the CPU than Abbey Roads. AR is way different than Capital Chambers. CC has a deep rich sound and is very tweakable, more than AR. I like it for some things. Probably more likely to use CC on vocals. In UAD I use the Lex 224 more. Oh yes, I still like AR better for drums if the cpu is not too loaded down at the end of a project. ? I am kinda new to CC 1yr.

All they need to do is add the happiness knob. Turn left for minor keys turn far left for chaotic nonsense. Middle for a major minor balance. Turn right for happy more right for giggley then far right for ecstasy. Turn it off for piece and quiet lol.

Wow, if I had a little cash, I could save $14,000 on sample libraries ?

I haven’t WUP in ages. I have v9,10,11,12 plugins. I think I will WUP one day. Just not sure if it’s this one. If I wouldn’t have bought VX Clarity DeVerb the other day.

I have used EAC. It works very well.

If you like knobs, you should google Full Bucket. They have a bunch of great free synths!

One great option is a Spotify subscription. The artist at least get Pennie’s! The quality is a bit better and the best part you can download them. You could get a bunch of songs in one month!! YouTube is a great backup.

Yes $150-250 per year rent for RVNC. Looking for good free virtual desktop app to use with Sonar, Sonobus, and a windows/iPhone-iPad connection. Wow just thinking, wouldn’t it be great to have that built in!

It worked so well. With SonoBus you could hear everything in the car. With the addition of RVNC you could edit it while you listen in the car. Or from anywhere you have internet or WIFI. Hey John thanks again for Sonobus. It is great! If I was Meng I would be looking into this.
