Super helpful. I started using Waveform a few weeks ago and it’s really growing on me. I’m a Studio One guy, but Waveform may become my DAW of choice. It just feels good.
Hey, studio one is dope ! I started using waveform and I like it too. It makes me feel like it’s done by passionate people. Same as studio one. But SO still my favorite daw. Also I’m still learning waveform
Same here! I'm a SO user too but I've switched to WF on the side before I completely make the switch. So far I'm really impressed! I've tried the UA Luna free that they released recently too but, its really intuitive but for a free DAW that has a lot of features WF really takes the cake compared to Luna (for now)
Thank you so much! I never used Waveform before. Worked with Cubase and so on. I noticed the automatic rendering which slowed down my computer.Now its fixed You explain in a clear and logic way, not too fast like many do, and easy to understand 😊
I think -3db is sme kind of normalization setting. I t's like a choice or something in various DAWs. Everytime I watch one of your vids on Tracktion makes me more and more want to try something with it. I have an older version. Not sure which version I've downloaded it and placed in my VST storage drive along with some other DAWs. I have tons of money in vested in REASON over the years but more and more I hate the way it handles adio files. It's a "beat" program and I don't do beats. Time for a big change and while other DAWs are interesting this looks like something I want to try. Great videos on this and I'll re-watch them. Thanks Zane.
Thank man! Looking forward to more of these. You wouldn't happen to know why my Waveform Pro 11 cpu meter shows 80% while the task manager shows 30% usage, would you?
I would normally keep that -3dB setting 😊 usually on a STEREO track you end up having a signal higher ( L+R sum ) than if it was a MONO track . You would apply that kind of -3db correction ( halves the energy ) on all STEREO buses, to compensate amplitute "build up" in the mix ( where you also have mono tracks that sound as they where intended ) If I'm right 😊
Very helpful, thanks Zane! P.S. Regarding the repeat-playback-position thing, i myself use the timeline "bracket" feature (forgot what it's called), & just enable loop to playback that particular segment. Because i'm 1 of those who'd prefer the default cursor to continue playing forwards.
What is the difference between a "project file" and an "edit file"? Which one i have to choose when i return to a project to continue working on? Help would be highly appreciated.
My Arturia MiniLab II isn't recognized by WF. Everything is up to date. It used to recognize it and then just stopped. Any way to fix this without reinstalling?
Been trying to audition Waveform (as well as Reaper) in anticipation of the pricing of Cakewalk, and I can't seem to get the VST screen to close out and I am not sure what I am supposed to do with the screen that's open. I only have 2 32 bit plugins, one of them being Redtron, the Mellotron vst as I cannot afford any of the paid options. Any idea why I can't get past this in the set up or what I am doing wrong? thanks in advance.
The 'Return To Start On Stop option is missing for me, do you know if its been moved to a different menu or maybe its because im using the free version? Very helpfull tip
I just started using Waveform 13 free version and I've been trying to find the return to start on stop option like it shows in this video. It really messes up my workflow having to manual scroll back over and over again. Does this option not exist in the free version?
Click on the audio clip that you’ve dragged in. Open the full bottom menu/properties area. After you’ve clicked on the audio clip you’ll see a tab in the bottom menu called Loop properties. Click on that and then un check auto-pitch and auto-tempo. It will then go back to the way the audio originally sounds.
@@AudioTechTV Omg....You are an angel!! Thank you so much lol..... now this program is prefect for me. they really should show that in a more obvious manner haha!!
I've uploaded it for my daughter, but I don't know why, when she tries to create a new project it's impossible to set the location of the file and so she can't do anything. 😖
Tried the return to start on stop setting but seems that option doesn't exist in my version Waveform free 13.0.33. Any idea where it went or if it's still available ?
I just want to knpw how to program drums from studio drummer native instruments into a DAW that doesnt cost money i dont have or havent paid for. I have DAWs waveform and multitrack studio and studio drummer just dont know to use them together
Why in Waveform 12 pro when I create new project, all audio files that I copy are Auto-tempo to master tempo? This so annoying, because it mess up speed of audio files. In free version of Waveform 11 I dont have this problem.
I hope this will work better than bandlab. I was looking for something easier than cakewalk ann few level higher than bandlab where I can work with plugins and where I can record pro vocals. I hope waveform is the right answer.
In my opinion it is way better than Bandlab. I find Waveform to be pretty easy to use. There’s a bit of a learning curve at the start but once you catch on it gets really easy and quick to work with this program. Good luck!
@@AudioTechTV Thanks for your work. Things were a little difficult without such informative videos on TH-cam . Particularly for beginners who know well how to play an instrument but don't know how to work on a DAW . I have seen people who know how to operate DAW and they are making music and they are not good musicians. They are still making good music and people are listening them. I think it matters if a good musician masters a DAW. Thanks for such informative video. Love from india.
Please please I need help. Sometimes (I have no clue how or why) but my project appears different, like it did on 4.45 with no bars and everything is shrinked and I can't comprehend how to male it look like default with the bars on the background and all. It affects so much the work because shorter clips are impossible to work in!
Did you scroll out too far? If it’s zoomed too far out then the grid lines will disappear until you zoom back in. Also when zoomed out, all of your clips will look really small.
@@AudioTechTV I found out it was a zoom problem that I managed to fix with the little Z and F at the right corner! I panicked too hard hahahah. Thank you for answering so fast tho!
@laetitiamulas9161 you can also use your mouse wheel to scroll in and out if you use a mouse. If you use a trackpad on a laptop then you can swipe up and down with two fingers. Swipe up to zoom out and swipe down to zoom out.
Please help! No matter what instrument I'm recording with i get the sound to all the other tracks on every new track I record. Instead of it saying input 2. now it says input 1/2. And it's my only selection either that one or 3/4. Either way The problem is the same. If I want to record bass. Then on the track I just recorded the bass on. I can still hear guitar and drums and everything else even if that track is solo It's still lighting up showing that there are instruments playing (on a new armed track ) when i'm not playing anything. How do I fix this so I can have one instrument per track?
First go into settings, and then into the audio devices section and you'll see a list of your inputs and outputs. click on input 1 and down at the bottom you'll see a little box that says "treat as stereo pair". Make sure that is unchecked. And do that for all your inputs. Also make sure they are all enabled. If that isn't the problem. Make sure you haven't changed the output of each track to output to other tracks or inputs.
Hey bro, I'm from India. Wanna start distribution with Routenote(free plan). Is Routenote reliable in terms of royalties/streams and customer support. Please help. Wanna know how trustable they are in 2023. Would you suggest anything else...
I’ve never used them so I don’t know. I’ve used DistroKid (which is a paid option)with great success and I’ve also tried Amuse free level and it has worked fine.

Very helpful. Especially having the cursor go back to where you start the playback. 😄
I tried that setting but actually prefer it staying where I stopped it, like the tape machines of yore...
Thank you so much! I never used Waveform before. Worked with Cubase and so on. I noticed the automatic rendering which slowed down my computer.Now its fixed

For some reason they removed it from the free version in waveform 13.
I pressed my space bar and it closes the program, not sure why. Any idea by chance?
Such a useful video, thanks!

Just got Waveform 12 and I can't find a high pass/low cut filter.
My issue. Is when I drop an audio clip into Wave, it changes the temp. Like the rap will be faster, or slower.
Click on the audio clip that you’ve dragged in. Open the full bottom menu/properties area. After you’ve clicked on the audio clip you’ll see a tab in the bottom menu called Loop properties.

If I work on waveform and if I want to save my work before turn it off, whst do u recomend me? Im learning, please help
I use CTRL+S to save. Press that on your computer keyboard and then close down your project and it will be saved.
I can not find the "Return to start on stop/play" button. I'm using the free version, can that be the reason?
@@veni_art5689 in the new free version they have removed that feature for some reason. But in the pro version it’s still there.
why is my master volume not working
how do you record without recordin the playback help me please.
Are you recording over top of an existing recording, on the same track as that recording?
