Just another quick thought: Have you tried moving the Piapro music ahead three measures? That way it will technically be late, but in the context of the music it is on time...? Maybe...?

Bizzare. I guess all that's left is to shake your fist at the computer screen and shout angrily. That may help.

Have you tried "cheating" by adding a short note at three measures before the vocal starts? If that works, you can automate the vocal fader in your DAW to get rid of the wake-up note.

Then perhaps your DAW is putting Piapro to sleep when nothing is playing, and only wakes it up when the first note occurs, triggering the pre-send delay. In FL Studio there is a "smart disable" macro that can cause issues similar to this with other plugins. (I haven't tried it with Piapro.)...

It's been a long time since I last used Piapro, but I remember it having a pre-send buffer that needs to be filled before anything plays. In the editor this is represented by some darkened bars at the beginning of the piano roll. If you need the vocals to start right away, you need to add some...

I haven't tried this yet because I'm busy writing year-end papers, however, there is a new free amp sim available for download: Amped Roots Free. Be warned, the first amp sim is free, but if you want the other three and extra cabinet IRs, you gotta cough up some cash.

Finish my master's thesis, if I can. Traveling was supposed to be part of the research, but who knows when that will be possible.

I'm pretty certain that's a tourniquet to prevent excess bleeding when Miku steps on a sea urchin.

I've also been guilty of only thinking about frequencies when EQing, a habit that I recently corrected. Now I know that it's more important to concentrate on the sound/music itself. Mixing is partly science, but mostly art.

That Kotelnikov certainly did a good job on the vocals: smooth and transparent. I'll have to try it on my upcoming track. (One thing I've learned is that different compressors work more effectively on specific instruments/tasks—even pros use multiple compressors. One size definitely does not fit...

Sorry, I'm being annoying once again. It has just come to my attention that Tokyo Dawn Records has a free compressor available for download: TDR Kotelnikov. I haven't yet had a chance to use this particular compressor, but TDR's Nova dynamic EQ is quite decent, so there's a good chance that...

My personal experiences with FL Studio stock compressors have not been positive: a lot of fiddling for only mediocre results. I used the stock compressors for years, admiring their plethora of options while simultaneously struggling to get a decent sound. I blamed my lackluster results on my...

I'm only learning this stuff myself, but my (very) amateur ears are wondering about what sort of compression are you using on the voice. In addition, I think that "riding the faders" might help to match levels when the instrumental stuff becomes more prominent.

I know I'm probably the only person on this board that cares, but STL Tones is having a 40% off Valentine's Day sale. Just enter the coupon code "STLVALENTINE" at the checkout page. Although I gotta admit, guitar amp sims are kind of a weird Valentine's Day gift...

I misread part of your first post, which probably prolonged things a bit. My excuse is that I'm doing homework at the same time. But it's fun homework.

The license manager needs an iLok account, which is different from the plugincentral account you used to download the plugin. iLok is used for a lot of audio plugins, for better or for worse.

All I did was double-click the installer and let it do its thing, then run iLok (which was already installed on my system) and enter the activation code, and then start up my DAW and select the plugin.

Whilst I'm here, IK Multimedia is having a sale on both MODO BASS and MODO DRUMS. I bought MODO BASS the last time it was on sale, and I've been waiting for MODO DRUMS to go on sale ever since. (At the time of that prior sale, my 8.5 year-old computer did not support the AVX extensions...

Look in "Orders" on the plugincentral website and it will say something like this under "Order Details": Use the following activation code before March 11, 2020 in order to get a free license: 0000-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000-00
