OutrageProductions

Although I'm a bit disappointed that the September offering is 1.1Gb and monophonic.

Obviously it is not mission critical, but the first few times it happened, I scrambled to figure out what caused absolutely no sound after the operation. Chased my tail around all of the inputs, outputs, etc. for a while. I have a work-around, but just thought that it probably shouldn't be causing this behavior.

In the Inspector section, you must be viewing the ProChannel first, not channel strips. Then the EQ will pop out on dbl-clik. Of the 5 buttons at the top of that view, the PC is the far right one.

I just noticed an issue (but just confirmed that it existed in 2022.11 as well on a different machine) and would like anyone here to confirm if you would in 2023.09. 1. Insert Scaler 2.x as an instrument track (track 1). It doesn't seem to matter if you use VST2 or VST3. 2. Insert a new MIDI track (track 2) and create a series of chord triads (altho the actual MIDI data seems irrelevant) 3. Drag-n-Drop the MIDI clip into the Detect section of the Scaler PI window. Does your Audio Engine automatically disable? This does NOT occur if playing the MIDI clip into the Scaler Detect section and recording the MIDI data from the MIDI track output to Scaler Track input. Can anyone explain if there is a good reason for this anomaly? I wonder if this would be possible to fix in the expected SONAR? This confused me several times (OK... actually phreaked me out!), until I just committed to memory to LMB on the Audio Engine button before playing. @Noel Borthwick; not asking for a fix at the moment, just an explanation as to why.

It could be just an anomaly in that session. Try a clean session template with just one recorded audio track... edit out a chunk and see if problem persists.

It does require some forethought, as I have not found a smooth/swift way to do it post insertion, but... If you have any idea how many outputs that you want your Kontakt instance to default to (ie: you can create a default with 8 outputs [4 stereo pairs] and save it as Kontakt-8out for example ) then when you open that VSTi instance using nearly any technique like RMB in the Track View - Header area you can use "Instrument Track Per Output" as such. Tick the box and number of tracks and choose the desired Bus output, you should be good to go. This can also be done (in a similar way) using any of the 'Insert Instrument' dialogue routes, just different visuals.

I'm on 2023.09 since the Release Candidate came out, and the config setting <Editing><Clips> operates perfectly on my machines.

This is such a rudimentary question that I'm going to steer you to a series of videos so that you can learn the basics:

Open the track take lanes to make sure you don't have a preexisting take from comping.

Better yet...

The maximum resolution in the Staff View is 32nd notes/rests. Check the <View> menu <Display Resolution> setting. Below shows 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32nd. Beyond that, no luck. One would normally indicate a smaller as a pickup note, but there is no notation available in this application. Look into the functionality of MuseScore, Sibelius (demo), Finale Notepad, and Denemo for your needs.

I just checked and this behavior existed as far back as 26.05.0.039 {2020/11} on my systems, so not new in this version. [anyone else confirm?] On my system, this is saved in the project template, [not globally] and recovers correctly, depending on the template loaded and the preset fade type.

@Andres Medina Here is a link to how to run the built-in Memory Check in Windows. https://www.windowscentral.com/how-check-your-pc-memory-problems-windows-10

It's been working perfectly for 4 full days for me on Win10Pro/Intel. No bugs that I haven't already developed workarounds for or expect to be resolved in Sonar. Maybe you need a new, different, and less taxing hobby. One that allows a cheese & biscuits platter to go along...

Yes.

RMB on the <Record> button in the toolbar and check if you are using <Sound on Sound>. You probably want to use <Overwrite>.

Select the clip, <Shift>+drag to a different track.

I know. It's not for everyone. I was concerned at the investment initially, but they paid for themselves in the first month I used 'em for a score. And has really cut down on the number of trips that I had to fly to Prague as a music supervisor, cuz I really hate to fly anymore.

Yeah, but that there is some pretty smooth legato, fer shur. ? It may even become a reasonable competitor for my E/W Hollywood Opus collection.

There are a couple of different approaches, none of which are 'automated' per se; 1. Copy the existing MIDI to another track, and by using the selection keyboard at the left of the PRV, delete all but the lowest notes that you wish to keep. Then reverse the process for the original track. 2. Use the <Process><Find/Change> function to filter for what you don't want to keep and delete it (also do this on a copy). Then reverse the process for the original track. 3. Use the CAL "Split Note to Tracks", then recombine the upper register into one track, and same with lower register into another track by <Shift-Drag>

Not that I've ever found. Setting focus on a bus in the Console View will automatically move the associated bus in the Master/Bus section of the Track View into focus and centered in the sub-window space (if possible).

Only if they utilized a third party that knows how to make a quality audio I/O. I've tested the NI interfaces on the bench and never been impressed with their A/D specifications, especially jitter. But then, IMO, the M32 is not evidentiary of high standards anyway.

Trying to turn garbage into a diamond requires a lot of patience and time, but it can be done. By going through the material in a methodical manner and using the <Project > Set Measure/Beat at Now> function measure by measure, you can create a tempo map that works very well. It is extremely tedious work and I occasionally have to do it for clients, but I get paid handsomely for it.

I've never been a fan of any online documentation system (with the possible exception of MS Office...), so my go-to is a "hard copy". The bad news (as you will discover) is that the manual is 1942 pages. However it is infinitely searchable by keyword, and the cross references are exceptional.

If you have not downloaded the offline 'Local Help' system or the (somewhat dated, but still rich in detail) PDF manual for the program, please consider it. On page 980 of the latter, you will find a complete signal flow schematic which can be extremely useful in figuring out where things are coming from and where they are going. I've annotated a copy here just for you:
