Hello all, I'm actually not a 'total' n00b, been using Cakewalk since GuitarTracks 2.0 (also have Guitar Tracks Pro, and CWMC 3)... Total hours spent in Cakewalk messing around though -- only ~30 hours I'd guess...
Anyways, just picked up Music Creator 6, recorded a simple 10 second guitar test, right-click it, add effects, I see a long list and select "distortion" and nothing happens. Nothing at all.
I then poked around and selected to only display Cakewalk effects, couldn't figure out which is distortion, found a simulated 3rd part amp somewhere in the right click menu and it wants me to upgrade it but it has permissions problems I think when installing the upgrade... Apparently it has only 9 days left??? Not even sure what it is so I'd rather use a non-3rd party distortion effect (or one that works without special activation).
Any idea what's going on with the long list of effects (none of them do anything at all when I click them) or what Cakewalk's version of distortion is? I also want to add ambience to a vocal solo soon, any help would be appreciated!
Thanks guys!
