Of course the singer will have a handful trying to claim them in Utah and may have to consider a monophonic relationship of a bassist.

That upgrade didn't go too smoothly me (not as smooth as it was with Win 10 was). I got an error (no display.....just a black screen) with Intel's onboard HD graphics driver (an issue others were having as well). However, I switched to using my dedicated graphics card (HIS IceQ 7870) and everything worked out.
 
Other than that,  the upgrade was a nice improvement over Win 8.

Do you need to or should you update all your hardware drivers to 8.1 first?
Then, Win 10 will automatically embrace it. :)

Interestingly, I checked (after Win 10 installation) for any drivers needing updates and lo and behold....everything was up to date!!

I'm not sure about that and not at my DAW right now.....will check tonight. Generally, I've left Sonar's settings as they were and not changed anything with Win 10.
 
Regarding you PCR 300 keyboard, apparently there's a Win 8.1 hack for this. Fireberd over at the Computer forum said he got his PCR 500 to work. You may want to PM him on that fix.

You're right the numbers don't add up. Actually it's more like 5,000 views per day. You get extra points and are now in line for a forum host job should an opening come up.

My reported VST count is 1669.
 
However that includes UAD Demo versions (too lazy to remove), about 40 VST2 and VST3 versions of the same plug (some VST3s don't work yet, like ANTARES) and all Waves mono versions too.
 
But still, the 1/20th is a valid point.

Actually, EZ Mix2 is very good for guitar, bass, keys, vocals, drums and more. You can get some good results from this on practically any track that's meh sounding.
I like it coz I'm a lazy bum that can't spend long periods of time on plugs and like quick good/EZ results. Their Mix packs are also very useful.
