Import a template or track group into a different song?

Hi all, not sure if this is possible? I want to save a "group" of presets into a template or separate ".mx10" file, then import or merge that into an existing song when I need it. Example: 5 tracks saved as a template, with 5 different plugins pre-loaded IE piano, piano w/strings...

[SOLVED] MX10 "freezing" on screen but still playing?

Seems that I have nailed this down to the "freezing" or "jumping" only happens when I have a midi clip open for editing, especially on my second monitor and that clip is pretty long where much of it is grayed out. I was able to make this happen in another song as well. Example wo...

Re: BBC Orchestra - free vs core / pro for multi track

My issues are usually with EastWest libraries. Have never had problems with Spitfire Audio and have tried to avoid buying their libraries that run in Kontakt, though not always possible. Are you saying you don't use the Windows VST3 folder? Never tried E-W, but heard good things. So much stuff! I d...

Re: BBC Orchestra - free vs core / pro for multi track

All of my VST's run off from a secondary internal SSD. 2 TB, about 40% full. Main drive is 1TB SSD. Libraries are setup by vendor, IE "Spitfire Libraries", Kontakt Libraries", Indiginus libraries, etc, where each folder contains the actual VST (s) from that vendor. Backups are done to...

Re: MX10 "freezing" on screen but still playing?

OK, I see where I got the build versions backwards, my bad. Project is in MX10 B579. You may have seen in my sig MX9, yes I still us that but older projects being wrapped up at this point.

Hi all,

Working on a sketch song in MX10 B470
OOPS!

Thanks Greg - always appreciate you guys!

[SOLVED] MX10 "freezing" on screen but still playing?

Hi all, Working on a sketch song in MX10 B470 - EDIT CORRECTION B579 - with Spitfire BBCSO (free) on about 25 tracks. It started with a template having 48 tracks setup, but I have since deleted the unused tracks in a new save. The VST is open on each track, however each is set to a different instrum...

Re: BBC Orchestra - free vs core / pro for multi track

Hey Mr.Mxyzptlk, That template is up to about 48 tracks for now. On my first usage of it I am up to 22 tracks, it runs good but I will be starting a separate thread about a hiccup. To answer your question, it took me about an hour to set it up initially, now still tweaking with colors and submix pan...

Re: User fail - forgot to set the correct key, midi tracks are transposed

Thanks Trevor! I tried that and many variations of it (like clip by clip, track by track, or selecting multiple clips) after your suggestion, but my clips are still all over the place. After "Use Project Key", the keyboard on the screen does not match up with the notes on the grid. I think...

User fail - forgot to set the correct key, midi tracks are transposed

Hi all, wow did I learn a valuable lesson! Forgot to set the key to the correct key when setting up a new song, then ran 17 midi instruments. The key was set to A, however I played everything in C, which was the key I needed. Once I realized what I did, I selected all the clips, transposed +3, then ...

Re: BBC Orchestra - free vs core / pro for multi track

Thanks Greg! I have used that trick, it works very well. I wish I could get Spitfire to route out that way! So far things are working out, I have recorded about 16 tracks with Spitfire on each track and it is running at about 10% (at peaks) of processor. Prolly will mix it down to a stem or separate...

BBC Orchestra - free vs core / pro for multi track

Hi all, and Happy Holiday season. I am using the BBC free orchestra and want to set up multi outputs, however that (to my understanding) is only available on the pro version. Internet searching shows many folks setting up the VST to run in, say, 20, 30, 50 or more tracks (yikes) - where each track i...

Customer wants old tracks - tempo issues repaired?

Hi all... Here we go again. I have a customer who brought 6 old songs recorded "studio live" many years back, and not even a click track used! Tempos, needles to say, are all over the place. These tracks are mixed down to mp3 and the original tracks are long gone. Cust is asking about savi...

Upgrading from 9 PS to 10 PS - VST location questions

Hi all, late arrival at downloading 10 pro Studio upgrade. (No excuses, I know, I know) LOL. My questions are based on maintaining 9 and 10 for a while >>> will not have them both open at the same time of course. Will 9 and 10 "share" all of the plug in locations, IE Kontakt, Toontrack; or...
