Thanks pwalpwal; what's the procedure to embedding the gif?

 
You need to upload it to an external site, click the insert/edit image button here, and enter the URL of your image (that's the URL of the image itself - not the page you uploaded it to).
 
I use my own server, but most users here use imgur.com

Strange, that's what I tried but it showed a broken image link on the preview. Normally works on images but I wondered if the procedure was different for animated gifs?

Ah forgot to mention... you have to change the https:// part to http://

Ah that'll be it. Thanks msmcleod.

Q: is it the Sonitus compressor specifically, or is it always whatever happens to be first in the list?

I just tried it and with IMPusher or Crystalizer first on the shortcut list they worked fine. Incidentally, this pushed Sonitus Comp to 3rd on the list and it still wouldn't insert from the shortcut list.

If you are familiar with regedit, the recent plug-ins are stored in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Core\Recently Used Plug-ins
While I have not been able to reproduce the problem, it may be a corrupted entry in this area.

Thanks for your help scook.
 
I'm just looking there now and although they are stored as CLsids rather than names I notice that each of them has an index value. Each item in order in the registry has index values 2, 1, 3, 4 and 0.
 
I'm just checking to see if the CLSids match the ones in the list and note that Sonitus Compressor does match.
The VSTs don't seem to have a CLSid when I look at the Plugin Manager but have a VST ID instead which is a different format.
 
The plugins currently in the list in CbB and working apart from Sonitus Compressor:
 
Position 1 - Subspace  (CLSid = TBD)
Position 2 - IMPusher (CLSid = TBD)
Position 3 - Crystalizer (CLSid = TBD)
Position 4 - Amplitube 4 (CLSid = TBD)
Position 5 - Sonitus Compressor (CLSid = C54E2D60-F9CA-11D2-8C30-00805FE9FC03)
 
One thing that does occur is that Sonitus is the only DX plugin on this list although Little Microshift is also not working on the shortcut list and I doubt that is DX.
 

The plug-in format should not matter. As I mentioned above, I could not replicate the problem. I tried with the Sonitus Compressor and Little Microshift. I am sure you figured out the index is the current position in the recently used display. Deleting all the entries resets the list. Deleting
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Core\Recently Used Plug-ins
disables the feature.

Ok thanks.
