Good news + Bad news = Good news wins

Well, today I tried to get the song I'm working on into decent shape and did lots of little fiddly editing jobs on various tracks.
The bad news: It crashed five times (mostly when I was adjusting plugin presets on the fly).
The good news: I remembered to save often, and got lots done and it sounds pretty good.
 
So, overall it was a good day anyway! Thought I'd share that. :)

They were all caused by Melodyne and EZMix2.
 
The Melodyne ones came when I was doing many finicky edits in a row, mostly time-shifting large groups of selected "blobs."
 
The EZMix2 ones came as I was trying to audition different guitar-sound presets by switching between them on the fly (without stopping the transport).
 
In both cases, I first got the spinning circle of doom and then the grey-out accompanied by the gloomy announcement that Sonar was not responding, and finally, the pop-up that informs you that Sonar is going to close, which it promptly did.
 
So, I rebooted my computer and got back to work. It was lucky I was having a good day with remembering to save often, and that my work was practically all recoverable.
 
 
 

Hey jude77 (see what I did there )
 
Thank you for the good wishes! I *think* I got that song all finished today. It's been in my head for many years, so thank goodness it's finally out! My next challenge is making a CD that sounds anywhere as nice as the song does when I listen to it in Sonar X3!
 
What are you up to now? Are you recording, or trying to mix, or in a dormant or planning phase?
 
Curious,
