I'm so sorry for not getting back to my post sooner... I have been especially busy the last couple of weeks and haven't been spending much time on the computer. As for my problem with the SampleTank install... I ended up calling tech support at Sweetwater and the guy had me up and running in...

Greetings one and all... I have purchased and am ready to install SampleTank 4. I'm a complete and total newb when it comes to working with plugins. I had a bad experience last year when I was trying to install third party plugins into my old Platinum version. This time I want to do it...

OK one in all... you can start lining up to give me that proverbial, justified kick in the butt for being so stupid!!! :facepalm: It seems that there is a little (in my case, hidden) speaker icon on the bottom right side, near the clock in Windows. If one wants to hear an audio sound coming...

Hi all... I recently got myself a Mackie FX8 v2 Pro Mixer. I have the MIDI stuff all worked out but I'm having trouble with the audio side of things in Sonar Platinum. I checked out the Cakewalk site and here's what I came up with: In Preferences select audio device, playback and...

Hi PJ... I would love to have a look at your midi file as well!!! Bobby

Um... I have my MIDI keyboard controller's "OUT" going to my M-Audio's MidiSport 2x2 "IN" M-Audio's "OUT" going to my SD 2's "IN" SD 2's "OUT" going to the Mackie. I have to tell you that the SD 2's "OUT" isn't a MIDI connection but rather RCA jacks. So I have a cable that has RCA jacks on one...

Better watch it Dave... if we don't get her back we're going to sic our Mounties on you! :D Bobby

Hi Mike... sorry for taking so long getting back to you. I've been spending more time playing around with my MIDI stuff, I haven't been around here much. No... I'm not using my computer's sound card... I'm using a Mackie Pro FX 8 mixer. I am using the M-Audio 2X2 MIDI interface. I am very...

Wow!!! I really didn't think that there'd be so many comebacks recommending free VSTs to try out. Perhaps I should do exactly that before putting out money out on others. But I have kept tabs on the "pay for" others as well. Thanks so much for the replies... very much appreciated!!! Bobby

rotku... thanks for the links... I'll be sure to check it out!!! Bobby

As I'm totally new to this plugin thing, please bare with me at my lack of knowledge. I really don't know what IR files are. And for sure I'd like to see some... especially if they're free!!! :) Bobby

Greetings one and all... I'm wondering if someone could recommend a quality reverb, chorus and compressor VST plugins? I've tried a few free ones but really wasn't impressed. I'd rather pay for something with true quality. I'll be using them primarily in Sonar. Thanks in advance Bobby

Hi all... I know that this is a long shot but I have to try anyway. I am the proud owner/user of a very ancient Roland JV-1010 MIDI sound module - a real dinosaur. Laugh if you will but it has a ton of great instruments and sound effects. There is an expansion card for it out there...

Hi Dave... Actually, I know about cables and how I could sometimes buy something that could have been substituted for something else that would have been cheaper. But it took me a while to finally learn because I have a drawer that is packed with cables that I probably will never use. I've...

Wires? Did you say WIRES??? Here's how everything looks right now, after getting everything working today. I really have to invest in a few shorter wires.

Thanks, Steenamaroo... I've had too much excitement for one day from getting both modules working. :laughings: I'm a bit tired right now so I figure it best to leave well enough alone for now. Right now, I'm afraid to touch anything for fear that I might screw something up. :) But I will...

Hi Travis... Yeah, I know, huh? I installed the ASIO4ALL, and it seems to be working fine. Sonar found it right away. Now, I haven't done any audio since installing it but I'm thinking it should be OK. I got the Roland up and running!!! I certainly owe myself a hard kick in the butt for...

Update!!! Good evening one and all! I'm just getting ready to start from scratch to try getting my MIDI modules working. Here is a list of all my gear, starting with my PC: System: Processor: Intel Core i7 3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz 3.40 GHz Installed Memory (RAM): 8 GB System type: 64-Bit Operating...

I listen to my music and everything else on my computer through the on board sound card. For music I have a Mackie USB mixer with reference speakers. Also, there's no drivers needed for the Mackie, but both DAWs warn me that there isn't any ASIO driver detected. Bobby

And so... I've decided to close up everything for the night. Tomorrow I'm going to pull everything pertaining to music out, and start all over again, wire by wire. Who knows... maybe a miracle will happen? :confused: Bobby
