Boost 11 stalling loading
Just this week, when I load Sonar 8.5 Producer (8.5.2.222) It stalls at the boost 11.dll. It eventually loads the program (after 3 or 4 minutes) and Boost 11 works, but I am curious as to why the change? Any ideas?

Only thing I could think of is your having computer memory issues. A tip, don't use boost 11, I found it could easily distort tracks. I use the 64 Multi Band ( or what ever it's called) , Way more control of the results. It's a hog so I keep it turned off when tracking.

Did some messing around with the memory issues, thanks, it seems to have helped. I do like Boost, but I use it minimally, in other words just a little bit in the red. It can be too powerful and distorted. I use the Vintage Channel 64 and like it a lot. Thanks!

Also, its not necessary to rescan your VSTs at startup. Its a waste of time really. You only need to do a scan when you add a new VST.

Mine seems to automatically scan them. How do I change that? Thanks.

Mine scans too, only takes 3 secs so no biggy, but the toggle is in Global/ VST plug ins. As I said I use the LP 64 multiband. The reason is 1 channel compressors loudness maximizers like Boost11 squash the whole mix , if the bass is hot all the mix goes down with it. A multi band separates this and only the bass or the ?? will be squashed, The result is a mix that still has dynamics. It's a mastering tool so I only use on master buss. My other reason is it quickly will show which fequencys are too hot, I can then go to the tracks and deal with it there with EQ or a individualize compressor. The end result is a nice loud mix over the whole spectrum

Best free maximizer is probably LoudMax.

+1, I use that in Wave Lab when I want to be heard.. First I normalize to 0db. Doesn't work on all types of music but for my stuff and my backing tracks it's fine. I thought it came with Wave Lab, but I must have it stashed in my plug in folder and forgot where it came from KVR?

I saw this guy spamming last night, he is getting very creative with his posts, even adding in technical vst lingual into the spam,which very well could be confused with pipe and drapes. if you look real close there bitflipper, you can see he copy/pasted some of dave's sig. that's where he got that ssl,korg stuff from.
