Is it just me or does SI-Bass Guitar do wierd things?
soens, I can offer only that at least, it's not just you. I haven't experienced the issues you mentioned, but
1) the thing doesn't respond to velocity changes. the track shows velocity changes normally, allows editing, but the SI software just ignores them - the sounds are completely level.
2) Open the plug-in properties, check the settings, then exit. A different window becomes active and upon returning to the plug in window, I find two error msgboxes - one about an "unsupported operation" and another citing an "improper argument".
The thing continues to play - albeit in its mono-velocity kind of way - but the error msgs appear each time I open the properties menu.
3) couldn't find a context-sensitive help reference.
I had read about how Cakewalk plug-ins are less than stellar, features half done, etc., but allowing this piece of software into production is a travesty. It
does have nice tone and I do need a v-bass, so the search continues.
It's a damn shame that - in products overall - the bean counters have shoved "cheap cheap cheap now now now" down engineers' and developers' throats. And it seems to be "prudent business practice" for companies to keep silent, if not downright lie, about known bugs as long as possible. Products built by companies with "integrity", "pride of workmanship" and "quality" are becoming harder to find.
I do like a lot of the new X1 features, but the continued aggravation losing time, money and patience having to troubleshoot "funky" software behavior is disheartening.
