Quick Math

I can't find any information about this plugin outside of this website... maybe official website hasn't updated the information about this plugin yet? Looks interesting. I have Harrison mix bus DAW but If this has the same sound quality then I can get the sound on my main DAW

This is my second oneknob pumper. First one was also free

Wow, I could learn a lot of new things! The best tutorial video I've ever watched for Cakewalk! I usually don't use step sequencer so I didn't know a lot about it...

I am not sure if I need search function for plugin Insert menu in particular, but in general, search function is great for huge lists. So if the cakewalk UI can handle it, that'd be a great improvement....or is it just Windows UI that can't have search function...? What I want is for output lists. When I need to assign sidechain, it's tedious to find the one I am looking for, particularly when I have a lot of tracks with sidechain-capable plugins.

There are similar wrapper plugins. I've tried to use DDMF metaplugin before but it crashes right after inserting it on Cakewalk. And it's more expensive. And their EQ (LP10) also crashes on Cakewalk. I bought Element around an year ago and it properly works on Cakewalk... I think I have tried to use LP10 on Element and it worked properly. I do remember it worked on FL wrapper plugin too. The name of the plugin is mini modular host or something but i forgot. It's a free plugin but it's beta and the plugin crashes easily, and not updated for years. So I think Element is the most stable one that works fine on Cakewalk!

I think Pro channel EQ is good like other say. CA2A is one of the best LA2A emulators out there. I don't know if other pro channel comps are that good too as I don't really use them but this one is just amazing. For synth, Z3TA+2 is my favorite synth but it's no longer available as you can't buy it anymore. The sound is a bit dirty but I can make interesting sounds with Z3TA+2. I really like it. I have too many plugins so I also want to know more as I stopped using most of cakewalk plugins.

Legend is $49 and Dune 3 is $99 at Thomann. https://www.thomann.de/intl/synapse_audio_the_legend.htm https://www.thomann.de/intl/synapse_audio_dune_3.htm I bought Dune 3. $49 is the cheapest price for Legend. (Sorry my internet is too slow to open the product pages, the link is for the website.) https://www.thomann.de/gb/hotdeals.html (I found this on reddit btw)

I have demoed their ECM87 MIC CLONE many months ago, even though I don't have their Gauge ECM-87 microphone. (I liked it even though I didn't buy it as I don't have the mic.) And I didn't know there is this plugin, which doesn't require the microphone and can be used for any tracks. I thought this was the same product I have tried before where there was no such trouble iirc. But this one is probably new and very interesting...

Hi, I believe search functions for any long lists is a must for modern UI. Imagine when doing mixing for a huge project with many tracks, like more than 100 tracks, and you have a search function and scroll bar to look for a right out put. It would be great! When I needed to look for an sidechain input, usually, not only there are many tracks and plugins there but also many instances of same compressor were used, it's like they have the same name in random order, so finding the right one takes more time. The gif below is a list for New Drum Map. so It takes time to get the right one. I know using an arrow key makes it slightly faster...but as you already know it's nice to have them as we all use it on CbB browser. like below. I think we all love this. For lists other than outputs and drum map, possibly lists for automation for a plugin can be long as well, so I might be great for them too. This is an example from a different DAW I use, which I felt is so handy

I purchased TE-100! Thanksfor mentioning it. And PA sent me another email saying I can use the same coupon code again. I don't know what to buy now. I might go for chop shop but I don't know if I really need it or maybe I might buy something else.

So you have these plugins already installed? These plugines might be simply excluded from your plugin list. From plugins manager you can make it show on the list. This might help you.

I also wanted cakewalk to have this. Imagine when you have more than 80 tracks, and add a new track and move them. it's quite time consuming, so I'd be really nice to have this feature. Or is there any ways to do this already?

How the automation works and pan are most probably different at least. So it should be fair to assume it would be possible to improve some parts discussed in his videos.

I was also looking for it recently for my laptop environment because I could not find it in my perchase history on the cakewalk website. The PC4K Gate/Expander came with Sonar X1 extended edition back then apparently. It was registered with my different email address so I couldn't download it from my cakewalk store. I probably still have the installer somewhere in my storage and I has serial numbers.

I tried them too and they sounded differently. First I had an expectation that Triad can handle everything that Byome can do, and maybe it can but the sound was not the same. I will probably just get Byome for drums. And Maybe not this time for Triad.

Sample rate conversion can increase the peak. Technically SRC is done with a filter internally which is a low pass filter and It's a liner phase filter as far as I remember. And because of that, the peak slightly shifts as in EQ cut. EQ cut actually may increase the peak, even though It's a cut. I assume resampling is also the same thing so that's probably why the peak changes.

I've recently purchased Iris 2, thinking it was a good deal...

I've just purchased Acme Opticom XLA-3 Compressor for 9USD with the code. I already have ssl G and E as well as townhouse, So I grabbed the comp after listening to some demos. This one might be underated but I think I'll like it a lot.

I also paid at BS a few days ago and I am waiting, too. I haven't sent any crossgrade proof yet as I thought they would later ask me to send it in another email. But I haven't received anything other than system message so far. I am not going to use cubase anytime soon because I don't have e-licenser. And also possibly I could wait for the next version.

Looks nice. I'll definitely download them.

I think this is considerably cheap (tempting) The plugin is dangerous BAX hardware's emulation. I've never used the hardware but there is a free emulation by variety of sounds 32 bit plugin BaxterEQ and I liked it so this one should sound great. Primarily this can be used for a buss or for mastering. From my experiences with the free one, It can add air as it has very high frequencies shelf EQ, making the sound clearer without affecting the main frequencies. And these EQ are gentle.

Whoa that's quite low. I am eligible to buy O8N2 with Loyalty Crossgrade from Advanced Products from izotope website for $149. But that one on Audio deluxe is even cheaper than that! I am not sure these 2 are the same thing as the one on izotope website says "Loyalty".

I still on the fence of which sample rate and bit depths are the ultimate choice, but let me just put my understanding, ideas and observation here. For recording, I might record at 96/32 or 96/24. I've never tried it though. Recording guitar or realistical sound from microphone would have better accuracy with higher sampling rate, so I might pick 96khz. For any General setting, especially for Cakewalk, I'd set 32bit for bit depth. The reason is, the inside a DAW, every process adds extra bits. And some vst use either 32 float or 64 double precision. So the internal processes are all done with 32 or 64 bit information. If you set 24 bit depth, when you freeze it or record it, some information will be trancated. So even though internal process are 32 float or 64 bit double precision, once you write a wave information then it will be tranced. So the sound changes with bouncing it or when you freeze it. Processing it multiple time may deteriorate the sound by occasionally lower the bit depth to 24 bit during the work, which I think I can avoid by setting it 32bit for DAW's file recording. (For the program itself, I use 64 double precision engine, even though some says 64bit double float doesn't makes the sound better as 32 float is more than enough) People may not notice the difference but in theory, transaction happens. For mastering, without a doubt, 96/32 or higher, maybe 192 if it's an option. For mastering, for better clearity with less distortion, higher sampling rate is generally introduced by mastering engineers too. Bob Katz says upsampling to higher sampling rate for mastering improves the quality. I'd skip the theory of why upsampling is good for mastering but I think it comes with some downside. Eventually, the file needs downsampling to 44khz, you have to use filter to remove folding noise, and that's how resampling works. But the problem is, whenever you use a filter, the peak changes. So for example, before resampling it, the peak was set to -0.3db with blickwall limiter but once you downsampled to 44hz, then it could exceed the peak of even 0db! so this may cause other distortion so I need to take an extra care about the peak with SRC. Reintroducing a limiter at downsampling process may change the sound quality, too. For production, I think it's difficult to say which sampling rate is the best. Most of the sample library offers the samples with 44hz. So with different sampling rate setting for a DAW cause resampling of these sample files inside the DAW. The inside DAW resampling doesn't come with the good quality compared to iZotope SRC. And for synth, the sound changes depending on sampling rate. Most of the time, (not always, thought) higher sampling rate would make synth sound better. So it may be good to use higher frequency settings when the synth doesn't offer oversampling options inside. When you use distortion, like tube distortion inside z3ta, the sound clearity differs by the sampling rate. And sometimes, higher sampling rate produces more Inter Modulation distortion, while 44khz produce more potential folding distortion. Some times for some reasons, idk why but folding distortion makes the sound warm. And for IMD, by introducing linear phase filters that cut higher frequency above in audible frequency helps make the sound even clearer, but the filter might potentially cause pre ringing effect, I don't think it's audible nor significant but I think it might change some transient information, or affect lower frequency as well. Which in the end will be added up to the entire mix to some extent. So it might have some weird time shift in sound. So as the sample comes with 44hz, producing at 44hz might be a fine choice. But I don't know. Maybe 48hz is better as you also use many effects. And for mixing, you probably need more plugins to be introduced, 48hz might be the best as you can reduce both IMD and folding noise. If you set 88hz or higher, the sound is so clean with less distortion but now I miss some lowend energy, making me think weather this was a better decision or not. Folding noise is not musical in theory but the extra clearity doesn't mean the song is warm at low frequency, nor powerful. And plugins work differently too. Many EQs will appreciate with higher sampling rate. and also non liner processes like compressors or distortion types of plugins can sound differently. For clearity, higher sampling rate would be better but some plugin sounds better at 44khz or 48khz. It'd make sense, though, that the developer forcuses on rather 44hz or 48khz as that's a common sampling rate. Or, maybe my ears are not good. Sometimes they even inroduces oversampling options inside a plugin so 44 or 48 are not a bad choice. So maybe, maybe I will use 48khz for mixing as it's good on both CPU and the quality. I think for recording from mic, maybe 96khz or 48khz, 48khz can be realistic for both production and mixing. And 96khz or higher for mastering. Well but I don't know...
