Tezza Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 In Cubase, I install both and let Cubase decide which it wants to use, in all other DAW's including CbB I only use VST2 and will not even install the VST3 version if there is an option to allow that, otherwise I just delete it.

pbognar Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 In REAPER, it only displays the VSTI3 and VST3. Btw, because it has "Input Fx", you can record any MIDI you generate in realtime, with the pads - you don't even have to sync Scaler with the DAW. The same can't be said for Mixcraft, without using a 3rd party MIDI router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Walton Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Anyone else having the Midi Notes recorded in the Scaler 2 track capturing both the actual note played along with the chord/phrase/expression that is binded? Previous versions would only capture the note played in the Scaler 2 track. Capturing the Scaler 2 output on a different midi track works as expected (only capturing the binded notes) Didn't see this bug in the forum, so curious if other Cakewalk users are seeing the same behavior. (Tried with VST2 and 3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZincT Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) What is it they say about a watched kettle never boiling I got fed up hitting refresh and moved on to something else. One thing I do wish; the samples take up 671Mb on disk and as far as I can tell haven't changed since the first release. This is most of the download size (728Mb) and they could surely be separated from the main code so that much smaller code updates could be made for download? Anyway, I tested the VST3 fix and it no longer hangs CbB in v2.0.7 when loading a project that uses it ?

The mac version took about 10minutes to download, which is actually moderately good for the connection I have. The Windows version took over 1 hour, and I had to keep hitting the pause/refresh sequence to keep it going. Finally it finished, even after one 'network failure.' Which I assume was a failure on their end, as my other unnameable network activities continued with out interuption. Giving Scalerites an option to skip the 'extra sounds' during this stage of the Scaler 2 show would perhaps be helpful. Now on to testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleer Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Are those samples any good? Or were they already part of the original Scaler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Sorrels Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Scaler 2 has a built in synth/sample engine the samples are what drives that. It's not optional really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are around double the number of samples in V2 compared to V1. Some are the same in V1 and 2 like the nice E Piano but there are a lot of new ones. Internal sounds can also be turned off but I would say that they are handy for sketching ideas. You would probably use one of your other sound libraries for more polished sound for any final production though.
