Although not about the original topic (which I'm not going to mention) I felt it important to make the following points.

Further to my comments on SmartSound as I'd never used it in PD:

I've just checked it out in PD14 and I find that only 'Single Layer' tracks can be imported. For example "Inspiring Beauty" doesn't import into PD because it's multi-layer. So if you buy an album - only for use in PD - when there's a sale on, only select the 'Single Layer' category. It's very easy to add the tracks from the album to PD. Buying this way in much much more affordable than through PD. Once you buy from them you get an email when the the next sale is on.

Also, be aware that although an album has a given number of tracks, each track has a number of Variations. So in PD, the tracks are listed by song title on the left and the variations by icon on the right. So depending on the album you could for example get 10 tracks/songs with say 5 variations each (they do vary in number) - thus 50 pieces of music.

Please note I have no connection with SmartSound or CL. I'm just an ordinary punter.

A Request: Would someone with only the tracks/songs supplied with PD14 please PM me with the default list of the songs. My list includes songs I added checking out how it all works in PD. Thanks.

TonyL,
I am also a big fan of Smartsound, but it has no connection at all to the topic of this thread. In addition your statement that PD cannot use multi-layer tracks is incorrect. If you wish to continue you should really find an existing SS thread, or start your own. This thread has run it's course.
