you added any new hardware?
I'm sure others here will have other suggestions too.
Good luck.

make sure your unused faders are below this value). Lets say it is at 2db.
Now select Normalize Mix and set the maximum db gain at 5db (its 2db level +
your 3d increase). Now this fader moves up 3db to reach the max 5db value
you chose. At the same time the other faders will move up 3db as well.

If you wanted to lower the levels, just set the maximum level of the highest
fader down by however many db you want. Lets say the 3db above was too
much and you would like to reduce it by a db. Same procedure, just set the
maxumum db level to 4db. This reduces your max level fader from 5db to
4db - a one db change for all faders.

Hope this helps. I use it a lot and it works for well for me.

Steinway D sitting right here in my control room. I'm not a keyboard player,
but this thing may inspire me to go there. I'm flabbergasted!! Another big
surprise was that it's not a huge resource hog as I had expected. It uses a
lot of RAM, but they warn you about that upfront. As far as CPU usage goes,
it's a pussycat. I've got my RME buffers set at 64k and I'm streaming BFD
grooves and simultaneously playing the Bosendorfer mofofromhell piano with
the most sample layers and expression options enabled with the sustain pedal
working overtime and my dual core 64 4200+ CPU is hitting around 8-9% (with
1.35G of RAM being utilized for both VSTi's, Cubase SX and the system. Glad
I've got 4G of RAM though. The 7200 RPM dedicated HD is having no problems
with this at all. I was thinking that I might need to go to a SATA RAID
array in order to get this app to function correctly. If you're looking for
a VSTi piano, this would be one to consider if you've got the rig to operate
it or are considering building a dedicated VSTi box.

Man.....this is friggin AWESOME sounding!!!!I-rovy, huh?
