    About buying Mixcraft:

    Is it only possible to buy the Very Latest Version (10.6) or can one buy V. 9, or 10, or other? Thanks very much.

    Initializing an SSD.

    I'm going to put Windows 10 on a 2TB SSD, and I read about initializing, which is foreign to me. A guy at the computer shop said that when the system asks if you want to initialize, you can ignore it. That's even more confusing. It sounds to me as if initializing is the same as, or similar...

    Has the Mixing-With-Headphones question been decided here?

    On some forums, such a thing is forbidden to talk about. Oh others, it seems to be how things are done. Eh? The same might be asked of Recording-With-Headphones.

    Acoustic guitar, gut/nylon strings, standard (not classical) neck profile

    That's what I need. My old steel string dreadnought is too much for my fingers, so something of those dimensions, but with gut or nylon strings, would be much easier on the fingers and fingertips. Anywhere from $250 to $1,000. I do a bit of fingerpicking. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Small Form Factor DAW?

    What do you think of the idea? I've heard that SSF can be noisy, have only one drive tray, and other flaws, but a lot of SFF Dells, for example, have been good business machines. Are they acceptable as DAWs if quick enough? Thank you.

    DDR3 laptop memory compatibility

    I have an aging laptop: Lenovo ThinkPad E560 Laptop, Intel Core i5-6200U 2.3GHz, - https://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-ThinkPad-i5-6200U-802-11ac-Bluetooth/dp/B0178JBNMO - which I want to begin using for recording while travelling or when using the big kit is not convenient. The critter has only 4GB...

    Does anyone here know Zynewave Podium DAW?

    Near as I can tell, it Podium just never took off but was better than its profile would indicate. I'm going to download and run it while holidays allow. It seems to me well-featured, but I am not qualified to know. https://zynewave.com/podium-guide/

    I messed up an iLok download/installation/activation.

    The software has Windows & Mac versions, the MAC was the default, and I missed that. I now have a Mac VST on a Win 7 computer. You can imagine how useful that is. Can someone please advise how I can get rid of that license installation in iLOK Manager and get the Windows license going? Thank...

    Can Windows 7 (from disc) be installed on new laptops?

    That is, a laptop which has Win 10 on it from the factory? I'm not sure if it's an odd question, but I would not have put it past Microsoft to make a W7 installation impossible on a computer with W10 on it; or perhaps there might be technical limitations on new laptops which would cause...

    How much disc space does YOUR average song take up?

    ... and while I'm at it, how much does one of your more ambitious projects take up? I'm mostly doing audio recording, supplemented by some VSTs. Thanks.

    Splitting a track into frequencies

    Is it possible to split a track - any track, but say a vocal track - into two, or three frequency bands, and then place those bands in various place across the stereo width, or even put them on separate tracks? Is there a plugin to do that? Thanks

    Please recommend a keyboard or brand with a light touch.

    I don't think that music should serve as an exercise program. I would like one, 49 keys, which does not require a strong touch. Are some brands better than others in that regard? What about Roland? Thanks.

    Explain to me about Roland drivers, please.

    Roland makes an interface, the Rubix44. A number of people have complained about this: "" ......the problem is that under Windows the interface will not work simultaneously with ASIO and Windows system sound; you have to unplug and replug, which is like a stone age solution. Why Roland did...

    Kontakt, 2020: what do you do with it? Do you use it?

    DO you use Kontakt's libraries? Which types? Do you make your own samples, or use samples from other vendors? What do you like or dislike about it. I have an old Kontakt, and I am considering upgrading to K 6. I am wondering how the current quality of the stuff is, and whether most folks...

    Moving DAWs. VSTs, etc. to other hard drives.

    I'm working out certain changes to my equipment and methods, and it occurs to me that perhaps moving stuff around from one drive to another is not as easy as ABC. Can all that licensed stuff simply be copied, or do some things need installing on a new drive or..... what? I'm not computerish...

    Versions of Ableton Live: 9 & 10

    I've not used Ableton and I think that I would like to use it at least experimentally and perhaps make it part of my work system (Studio One.) I would start with Intro version to see if I like it at all. I run Windows 7, so Live 10 and 9 are available, the latter at a store near me, boxed...

    I need Pedallboards 101.

    I have never used a pedalboard and know nothing about them. I am now changing my recording methods a bit and a pedalboard seems to perhaps be a good idea, rather than kicking a number of pedals around on a concrete floor. I am unlikely to use a pedal or pedals on each and every recording. I...

    Is Reason all that bad for audio recording, editing, and mixing?

    I will demo Reason as soon as I am finished some computer changes, but I would like to hear your wisdom on this. I've read a lot of posts on various forums, to the effect that Reason is only slightly better than a garden shovel for doing audio recording. Racks, automation, everyone loves it...

    Dual boot Win 7 / Win 10?

    I've been sniffing around to perhaps update my DAW before recording season starts, and was disappointed to see that Pro Tools is strictly WIn 10. Thinking that I may end up updating my Studio One to the new version, 5, I had a look at it - and it's Win 10 as well !!! ARRRHHH. :mad: If I have...
