While searching for the information, I remembered that it didn't happen as I described above-- the popup wasn't in Cubase at all, it was in MuseScore! But at the same time I was also having problems with Cubase causing the speakers to go silent, and it was all connected. I think the thread that...

I had a similar sort of experience earlier this year, although the symptoms were a little different-- I was getting a popup in Cubase about a problem with the Yamaha-Steinberg driver and that Cubase was preparing to install the driver, but then nothing would ever happen and I would end up having...

Don't ban the bean! Get something like this instead: Spill Proof Coffee Mugs: Amazon.com

I have the same problem with a free IDE (integrated development environment or "programmer's editor") that I like to use sometimes. One suggestion I've seen is to make sure you use "Run As Administrator" when you launch the installation package for the program. Another suggestion is to make...

I don't have any of the paid editions myself, just the free Studio One 3 Prime. If I remember from when Studio One 3 was released, the free edition doesn't usually come out until several months after the paid editions, so I'm hoping Studio One 4 Prime will eventually be available. The free...

I watched only a few minutes of the live webcast yesterday, but it was interesting how many of the live comments that people were posting to the right of the video seemed to be along the lines of "Meh, you can do that with such-and-such"-- until they showed how you can change the keys and/or...

I'm watching it live now. I missed the first 20-something minutes, but this looks pretty darn cool. :)

The last time I had a cat, I was sitting at my computer one day when he suddenly jumped up on the computer desk and barfed all over the keyboard. I guess he was trying to tell "Daddy" that he didn't feel good! Needless to say, I took the keyboard apart and washed it.

It sounds like you might use the same model as mine-- L100: dell l100 keyboard | eBay

I'm currently using one of those Dell keyboards that looks like it was made to be a part of something larger, because it has no extra "margins" around its four sides. It also has a USB cord that plugs into the computer. But I've used wireless Logitech keyboards in the past; I just got tired of...

Yes, you can do that. I keep Dropbox running full-time on my desktop PC, but for some reason I decided I didn't want it running full-time on my laptop, so I think I went into my startup program list and said I didn't want it to run at startup. But go figure, now I just start it up manually...

I think it should be possible. It sounds like you're already most of the way there, except you're having trouble getting everything to line up as far as the measures and beats? One idea is to just record the style, as it sounds like you're doing, then use the piano roll editor to adjust things...

If the keyboard controller doesn't have a MIDI Out port, and you want to connect directly from its USB port to the MIDI In of another device, you cannot use a simple USB-to-MIDI cable. Instead, you'll need to use a special USB-to-MIDI interface that can act as a USB host for the keyboard...

Ableton Live is good, but Live Lite is very lite as far as how many tracks you can use, etc.: Audio and MIDI tracks: 8 -- Live Lite 16 -- Live Intro Unlimited -- Live Standard Unlimited -- Live Suite Send and return tracks: 2 -- Live Lite 2 -- Live Intro 12 -- Live Standard 12 -- Live Suite...

I use Cubase Elements, which apparently never gets any of the x.5 releases. I'll have to wait another 1.5 years for Cubase Elements 10, since new versions of Elements seem to be released about half a year behind the new x.0 versions of the more expensive editions.
