Mute lit up = on Solo lit up = on PDC lit up = on FX lit up = off - WHY??? It is confusing to new users. I could easily get used to them all meaning the same lit up is = on Make them all the same.

3 tracks instead of take lanes - Me too. I tried them, but regular tracks with folders is fine. I do like take lanes for multiple vocal takes. Old insert - Me too Why learn a new way to do something when everything is working just fine?? I would rather spend time on music that relearning something that is already ok as it is. ?

If you look closely, you will see that the Evade is in fact a VST3. The secret is in the logo in front of the name. One has a 3 in it. The other looks like a single pole electric socket plugin. Look at the logo in front of your plugins and your photoshop. None of mine have a VST3 or a (64bit) on them. Only the tiny logo is different. "3" v (a tiny little 3 in the header) vst2 ^ You can double-click any plugin in the plugin manager and name it whatever you want. A plugin installer can also name the plugin what ever it wants to on installation.

If you are doing this to save space on your hard drive. It is not recommended, reasons as stated above. You would go to a ton of trouble for an ounce of space.

If bitfilppers suggestion does not work for you -> I had a song that I could never pinpoint the plugin causing the crash on export. My workaround was to take the final bus and add a send to an AUX track. I then recorded the AUX. Next, I opened the \audio folder and just copied the .wav to my song play folder. Not a great option, but it does work. It would be good to know what plugin is causing your crash. It would be good to report this to cakewalk. If it has a dump file, it should be here-> C:\Users\xxxxxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\MiniDumps (Replace xxxxx with your computer login name) Submit a ticket here-> https://help.cakewalk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Not yet I already have two other reports I an trying to keep up with. I’ll stRt it as soon as one of the others closes or if I have a breakthrough o something about it.

I figured out it was plugins causing the problem. I’m still not sure why. I was unable to pin the problem on any single plug-in. Some plugins were set to over sample and some were not. Just for a test I turned over sampling on for all the plugins. My results were reverse from what I thought it would be. With over sampling turned on for the whole chain, the deviation was less. Go figure ?!?!?! Come to think about it ??? The error seemed to be 1/2 what it was before? Now I’m really confused. ?

I was going to say to lock the clips. That is a great way to protect them some. I like folders better than hiding clips. That way all of the other tracks are only one click away. There are several ways to level the different take. First, you should use the volume to adjust them as close as you can. Some people use compressors and limiters to help level audio. These are good, but my favorite plugins are an all in one solution. There are many on the market. Some of my favorite are Waves MV2 and Vocal Rider (these two can be used together) or WA Productions Outlaw. Be sure to check out the deals forum before you buy any plugins! Outlaw will let you set a LUFS range which might be a plus later on. There are some good tools built into the cakewalk pro channel as well. Others - Waves - playlist rider Plugin alliance - Master Desk, Master Desk pro Sonible - Smart Limit Hornet Audio - several inexpensive gain rider plugins You should probably look at Outlaw 1st! https://www.waproduction.com/plugins/view/outlaw Good luck with your project. There is plenty of good help here.

There are several plugins on the track FX. I will try to bounce with no effects, then 1/2ing them and bouncing again, etc. to see if I can find one that is misbehaving. Thanks larioso that could be it!

It is quite audible. This note is an accent on the upbeat. When not timed properly, you can hear a rush or a drag on that note. I have moved it 20+ times, trying to guess where it would end up. It is a standard audio track. The latency is set to 2048. The project is running 45% computer usage on the cakewalk meter. The before is zoomed in so you can see that the now time is exactly on the mark. The bounced is zoomed out, so you can see it is behind the original placement.

I decided to go for it. I already had patchwork, so I got a nice discount. I did download the ASIO driver. It looks like it will be a challenge to get it working with another computer. Remote connecting would be my goal. rsinger, glad you actually got it running. Did you use it internally or LAN?

It seems like this note is being pushed back a bit on bounce. How is this even possible?? I moved this thing 2dz times trying to get the timing correct. I finally figured out it is moved back on freezing the track

Hey John, are you having good luck setting up and running connect?

I have Definitely spent weeks and months on some mixes in cakewalk. I can promise you it had nothing to do with cakewalk lol!?

You think waves did some stupid stuff. Let’s sit back and see what happens with STG and avid lol. For now, I feel I have a safer more solid application than ProTools! Thank you bakers and sous-chefs.

If waves didn’t have the : 64 bit vst2 mono version mono to stereo version stereo version 5.1 version 7.1 versions repeat with 64 bit vst3 I would probably could not qualify as a hoarder.

I need a new computer, but just don't have the cash right now. I looked at my motherboard asustEK p8z68-v pro gen3. I have almost the fastest CPU it will take (i7 2600K) . I can't tell if a 3770 is faster?? ?Any helpful tips to overclock the i7 2600 CPU? I read they could be overclocked to 4.4? (This is an older Jim Roseberry computer) Should the graphics card be upgraded? Would I get any cakewalk performance improvements going from a GTX 650 to a GTX-1070 or even a lower priced card? This website says 495% better https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-650-Ti-vs-Nvidia-GTX-1070/2189vs3609 Is there a dual output version with HDMI? Current Motherboard options - https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/Asus-P8Z68-V-PRO-GEN3/2498 What do you think, am I wasting my time?

I don’t like some of the stupid things they have done, but I’d have to say this is a killer price. There is no way you can come close to this set of plugins for anywhere close to twice this price.

That bottom processor looked like an old FM receiver I used to have lol.

“I get that all-too-common "underwater" effect” Do multiple passes with 2-3 db reduction each pass. This will lower the under water sound some. It makes for clearer tracks

Yes, just google Elvis impersonators!! I have a friend William Styles that is a talented musician, and he does Elvis for a living. He didn’t need AI to do it either lol!

I don’t know which 414 you have, but I have the AKG C414 XLII. It has 9 switchable patterns. Choose a pattern like cardioid. It will have some back rejection. If you are recording people talking the sure SM7b would be better. Either way, you could do some great cleanup with waves VX Clarity. It is super easy to use and will do an excellent job for you. Izotope RX is another choice. It works differently. It needs to sample the noise, then it can remove those sounds. If you sampled ac noise and the phone rang,you would need to then sample the phone ring. It does have an auto/generic setting, but waves will work better with speech than RX in auto mode. Since VX Clarity is semi AI based it would remove the phone, ac and background crowd noises in one pass. It “listens” as it works. You don’t even need the high end version. The $29 version works just fine.

Looks like it is fixed! It is in the standard 3 bar menu on the top right.

Ok, did anyone try the thing out?

I guess I need to update and try it. I am certainly a plugin over user lol!
