Thanx for the update guys!

Question:

I made this post a while back about CakeWalk crashing when using 2 specific vst's in a project.
Using the Poise & UVI workstation vst crashes CakeWalk..Help!

Will this be resolved in CakeWalk Sonar?
Or maybe still with Bandlabs CakeWalk?

Sounds like a driver issue.  I use UVI Workstation with no issues

So - we dont need bandlab assistant app on our PCs anymore?

Brutally honest answer, I highly doubt it.

With Sonar, they will simply tell you to contact the makers of Poise as this is an issue with their plugin, not Cakewalk

With CbB, definitely not - development as pretty much ceased.

As good as Poise might be, I would simply give it the flick and find something more reliable.

Just gave the Product Center a spin! Updated the newest version for it and used it to download and install the latest CbB.

Pretty nifty! No crashing so far. 

Although,  I saw where Tts-1 will no longer be a part of Cakewalk! I stopped using it myself many years ago but I have a friend that will be devastated by this news. Also, saw on this forum, several people that still love that little plug! Do you think maybe Roland would be up to selling it for a reasonable price? Possibly they could develop it as a VSTi.

Just speculation!

Very doubtful. Who knows, it may start working in a future Sonar release as the result of a different issue being addressed.

Your best bet is to find a replacement for one of the three pieces of software that are not cooperating. If it were me, that would be Poise. Speedrum Lite works with Cakewalk by BandLab.

If you already have it, then do you not already have it ?

I have had tts since it was made available. Although,  I have moved on to shall we say more pro line synths and samplers.

I was speaking in terms of new Sonar customers who will no longer have the option of a GM synth right out of the gate!

It has is handy if you like to audition midi files without more clicks to open up a VST.

A new GM synth shouldn't be too tall of an order for a future Sonar update. In fact the synth engine used to preview midi in Bandlab assistant (before they removed it ) wasn't half bad.  Side note, I had hoped Loopcloud would add something like that to preview midi too.

I never cared for the Loopmaster label because their lack of midi.

I'm hoping Image Line will have this function but yet they don't have that in their DAW.

FL Studio, Live, and Reason don't have these functions.
