midi

Hey. So had this unit for a good few months and very happy with the keyboard and features. My question is about the assignable knobs. How many can be assigned exactly? So far I have a total of 64. Basically 8 knobs which I snap shot to each pad. Thats been enough up until now. Is 64 the max...

Hello Logic users, I'm trying to find out how to disable MIDI reset on a project or global setting. The reason I need this is because I have MIDI tracks which I'm recording from my keyboard, but when I play them back and stop, a MIDI reset message is automatically sent from Logic to the tracks...

Could not contain myself - MIDI Guitar 3 is finally on its way, going into Beta in February 2024 . Sign-up for their newsletter (and Beta program I guess) here: https://www.jamorigin.com/beta/

I want to take breath controller input data and apply an attack curve to it whenever input comes in. I know this is programmatically possible because the TEControl driver for the controller has this exact thing built in and it's called "attack filter". It's essentially like an inertia system...

Looking to download some midi files of some of your mockups that people do, is anyone free to share any midi mockups they've done with the midi file? Thanks

Hello, I like using Noire and Una Corda with their mechanical noises. Note on velocity makes the mechanical sound louder or quieter, which is what you would expect. The mechanical release sound however is always at maximum volume, regardless of the note off velocity. On a real piano you should...

Hey Everyone! Me and some friends, are in the early stages of designing and building a control surface to work with the major, DAWS and most likely going to use MCU (Mackie Control Universal ) Or Mackie Control. We most likely are leaning towards MCU with its combined abilities. We are all from...

So with the release of Steinberg's Cubase13 today (2nd November 2023), and the ongoing chat about its features and updates (click here) does anyone have any thoughts about: When Nuendo13 will likely be released What features will be added or updated to Nuendo13 in addition to those included...

Hey all! I made a website that lets you hear the same composition rendered across different libraries. Manufacturer demos always play to the strengths of the library, but what about the weaknesses? This lets you do fair head to head comparisons that better show the differences between libraries...

Hi all, I'm producing filmscory orchestral music around 2 years now and want to dip my toes into other genres. Currently I'm, working on a synthwave, pop und track with a cinematic touch. I managed to get a funky tone out of CSB. But I'm struggling heavily with the guitar. I try to make a...

Hey all, im new in town. I'm looking for a plugin/software that can take the audio of a drum loop and rearrange the order of the drums. But, im wanting a live midi-out function from the detected slices, so I can trigger hardware (drum machine) with the midi. So far I have found Steinbergs...

This is currently a work in progress. Windows only for now, sorry :( This app only support Windows Precision Touchpads. (For example the Logitech T650 is not a Windows Precision Touchpad, so it doesn't work. Apple Trackpad works) I made an application which transforms touchpad input to MIDI...

I use Addictive Drums 2. I have both the Jazz Sticks and the Jazz Brushes kits as well as the midi packs for them. I purchased a few Groove Monkee midi packs which work very well with Addictive Drums. I intend to buy VSL Jazz Drums soon and I am wondering if there is any way to get the midi...

Hey all, I recently upgraded all my Special Edition's to Synchron-ized versions, so I did a test run using only them (inspired by the video done by Adam Harvey and Nucleus). Seeing as it was an experiment, I thought it would also be interesting to not use any external EQ or Verb etc, so it's...

Hey all, hope you are having a great week! I keep hearing a lot of people say that Cubase's MIDI editing capabilities are better and/or more advanced than Studio One, but nobody has actually iterated on specially why and what kind of features that Cubase can do that S1 cannot, or does better...

I've had this issue since I got it and have contacted support a few times and tried a few different versions of firmware but the problem remains, so I'm wondering if anyone has run into it and found a solution. When I power on my SL88 Studio it works as it should - note on is sent when the key...

Apart from my passion for composing music, I'm also a sample pack producer. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of creating hundreds of sample packs for composers and producers through my own soundware company, Equinox Sounds. I'm excited to share with you my latest creation: the Full MIDI...

Dear all, I have an issue, whereby midi notes are disappearing if I record a second part in the same piano roll. In brief summary : 1. In the piano roll, I left-click on the record button, select notes and automation, and hit the play button to begin recording. When I am done, I click on the...

I use Cubase to work on arrangements and export the midi to work with Finale, but drums are a mess - the standard Percussion Layout doesn't recognise Kontakt's layout, where e.g. a Kick is a C1, a snare is a D1 etc. I end up using transpose percussion notes, but that's hit and miss, because I...

Hey, I have a few patches playing in unison, some work with the sustain pedal for certain articulations, others don't but end up being sustained when they shouldn't. I'd like to turn off the sustain pedal for those instruments only. How do you prevent instruments from receiving pedal MIDI...

Hi, I got this MIDI Drag n' Drop code from someone online who kindly made it available for use a few years ago...but the label for dragging the MIDI to the DAW doesn't work..I can't work out why as the code seems correct - set_control_par (get_ui_id($midi_object), $CONTROL_PAR_DND_BEHAVIOUR, 1)...

In regards to making a screen recording of a track for Youtube, I'd like to be able to visibly show all midi data for my specific sections like strings, brass, etc. However currently, if I select all my string events, it will only highlight the midi notes for the last track I selected, while the...

Anyone have some tricks or knows some guides/tutorials on how to make midi screencasts more interesting on Youtube, etc.? I'm not sure what to call this, so all my searches for tutorials end up being for something else like setting up screen recording software. Here is a few videos that showcase...

Hi All, apologies ion advanced for the non stimulating post here, but ive been in an exhaustive search on what keyboard controller i should get for my studio. I know this question has been asked to death but my apprehensive wallet always makes me ask these questions. So ive narrowed my list...

Hello, I'm not sure that this is the proper place to ask this. I have several MIDI devices, some of which duplicate certain cc's unless I configure them otherwise. Some of these controls are "noisy" in that they occasionally send messages with their MIDI value without me touching them. For...

They both seem very nice. The Monogram is very simple, easy and straight forward to use, good quality, expandable, and cool lights. But it's universal, so not made specifically for audio production Where the Platform IS made for that. So it's got the motorized faders (awesome) your mute, solo...

Just got some good studio monitors and Sennheiser HD 400 Pros so I figured I should get an audio interface... right? Do I actually need one? I'm just producing with virtual instruments, so really the sound isn't leaving my computer except to go to my monitors... but every one I've seen uses one...

Reference Track Two of my recent template rebuild is Rey's Theme, from The Force Awakens. Yes, I was feeling bold enough to attempt something in the style of The Master, John Williams. This piece is a by-ear transcription, so the orchestration is definitely off... but I feel like it's pretty...

Hi, I'm rebuilding my template and loading individual mic positions for each instrument. I have individual outputs activated for each position so I can pan these individually and control reverb levels, routing etc. Each instrument has three mic positions; Close, Room and Surround. However, I...

Dear VI community, With both the Arturia Keylab88mkii and its rival M-audio Hammer 88 Pro on the market with (more or less) competitive feature, I’m encountering a lot of difficulties for choosing the right one. My objective is finding the most suitable MIDI controller for my needs. I mostly...

Hey guys, Is there any known multiscript that allows switching between Kontakt instrument channels with a MIDI CC instead of regular keyswitches? I'd like to be able to assign certain CC value ranges (i.e 0-30, 31-80, 80-127...) to given instrument patches, to be able to switch between...

Many libraries for strings, brass, etc. don't have enough volume range for my liking out of the box. I'm a one cc dynamics type of person and focusing on expression and modulation together is usually a lot of work for that extra push in dynamics. Assigning expression to CC1 so that they're the...

Hi. I would like to ask if somebody has a good idea about the Kawai MP7 midi implementation. I know how to use it as a controller for soft synths or other gear and as a standalone instr. All great with that. But since I would like to control its organ and synth sounds with a more appropriate...

Hi there, Since the ddsp-piano model has come true, I want to start a thread here testing and discussing the ddsp-piano model and further, the machine learning approach in music synthesis. So what makes realistic piano performance synthesis through machine learning possible? Well I think...

Hey folks, First off, if you're a fully "in the box" person, this probably won't apply to you. I'm targeting Mac folks here that integrate external MIDI gear. If you're curious though, feel free to stick around! Secondly, I'm not certain if this is the "right" forum for this post, but I hope...

Within Kontakt, Audio Imperia's Solo V.I. won't play MIDI tracks, which I've imported into my DAW (Reaper) from a .mid/.midi file. For the bassoon instrument in the attached image, I've verified I can play notes through the track by clicking on the virtual keyboard in Kontakt. But no luck when I...

Like many of you, I was saddened to hear the news of Vangelis´ passing this week. His music, both his work as a solo artist and as a member of Aphrodite's Child, has inspired me in so many ways over the years. As for Bladerunner, what can I say that hasn´t already been said? The film was a...

Does anyone have experience with, and tips for using, REAPER's Humanize Notes? For some of my work, I export MIDI files (.mid) from my music-notation program and then draw CC values on the resulting tracks in REAPER. In the MIDI Editor window, using Humanize Notes (H) is a further way to create...

Hey there, As a complete beginner, I was planning to buy a portable MIDI keyboard/controller for sketching ideas and I was completely beguiled by what Roli tech can do. Currently I am torn between getting a Roli seaboard/lightpad combo or a lightpad with a regular midi keyboard. Also, I am kind...

I'm selling one very new Nuances MIDI controller made by Piere himself in France. Only a couple of months old. More details and pics here: https://nuancescontroller.fr/ Reason for selling....I was first on the waitlist to buy another new MIDI CC controller coming out next month by Audio...

Hi Everyone, Has anyone got a solution to Midi drop outs on the latest version of Logic Pro and VEP7? I have recently upgraded both Logic Pro and VEP to the latest versions, after doing this midi noes have become unplayable. I have noticed Logic Pro has new settings and has reset my...

Hey everyone, I'm encountering a very frustrating issue with Kontakt. I'm trying to emulate a subtle vibrato effect on a few Cinebrass Legato horns that don't have any sampled vib. So here's what I do: I check "edit all groups", create two LFOs (for tune and volume), set the frequency and...

Just an exercise i'm currently doing to improve my orchestration skills. It's not complete, not mastered, not anything. Feedback more than welcome!

I'm trying to set up a TouchOSC MIDI setup with Logic that can display current state for channel mutes. I have buttons that are assigned to muting specific channels, and set them to respond to the right values instead of rotating, but I can't get the buttons light to reflect the current state of...

Looks scrumptious... @audioimperia

It is generally way more likely for a soloist to not exactly hit the beat in a real orchestra. In ensembles, when you have e.g. 16 Violins playing at once, the imperfect but natural playing evens out. Therefore the rhytmic "peak" of a staccato note is more likely to be exactly on beat. In MIDI...

Hi there, I want to use Touch OSC (v2) with Cubase 11. I have an Android tablet and using the OSC Bridge. The problem ist, that I haven't found out how to separate Generic Remotes and CC-Entry, because I can only use the CC-controlled midi-faders (f.e. CC11 for Volume or CC1 for modulation...

Hi, I'm new to Kontakt scripting and am trying to work out what is/isn't possible. I would love to be able to generate new MIDI data (notes such as harmonies, or CC data) based on an existing MIDI file on the track. If the output had to be written to a separate track, that's ok. I want to see...

Sorry, I just deleted the midi file since I worry about the copyright issue and the power of the AI in replicating the performance of a pianist. If you've posted your audio file here you should decide whether or not to remove it. Thanks for warning me. If you want to discuss the AI piano...

I've been doing more midi programming of music lately and am applying some tricks I've learned. For example, 1. Overlapping midi notes to get the legato effect. (works in Kontakt libraries) 2. Varying velocities to mimic a real player. 3. Humanizing midi timing so it's not robotic. 4. Adding...

Hi, I am considering buying a great piano vst library. I currently own Gentle Keys by Splash Sound. I purchased it for $58 and it has a nice dreamy tone with an optional smooth synthetic strings layer, but the dynamics are a bit small since it's sampled from an upright piano and is less than 1...

So I play a MIDI note, when releasing it the sample re-plays again, I have tested other VSTs and it's only with Kontakt this happens, and it does not happen when using Kontakt standalone, i.e somethings off when the MIDI data goes from keyboard -> Reaper -> Kontakt -> Library. Anyone had similar...

Hey guys, I'm having issues with Pro-Tools. Whenever I record MIDI into a session I'm getting a duplicate note. It's super small and basically just overlaps the note start point of every MIDI note if that makes sense. It started out of nowhere. I haven't changed any settings. I've done...

My Korg nanoKONTROL2 has just broken (it's throwing out random MIDI CCs when nothing is being touched) I use the sliders/faders for expression/modulation etc I was trying to get a replacement (in UK) but I can't seem to find one in stock anywhere that can be delivered quickly. From my...

Can anyone recommend and Software or way, to have a way to play 4 or 5 different patches, and control the midi zones that each patch is receiving. Say you want to send midi to VLS I VLS II, VLAS, CELLI, and BASSES, but want to set it up so that different midi regions are limited to the range a...

Hey, I made a scripter plugin that allows me to "hotswap" samples in my sampler using MIDI CC. However I can't seem to make the CC values persist once I hit play or record or when I reload the project. I made a video (w/ sound) that will probably demonstrate what I mean a little more clearly...

Hi Everyone, I recently finished my first serious virtual orchestration. I have worked with MIDI before, but this is my first attempt at making a mockup of a (full) piece that I wrote for live orchestra. There's a lot that I think can be improved, but after dealing with many bugs and losing a...

Hey, Maybe I am in the minority here, but I find the more Keyswitches an orchestral patch has, the more it takes me out of the moment - requires more editting. I wish I was able to whizz over the Keyswitches as I play in parts, but at best I can usually learn 2 or 3 and end up doing the...

I'm trying to create more realistic woodwind sounds. I have EW Hollywood Orchestra Gold, so using those WW, which I know sparks some debate on these forums. It's what I've got for now. I've read the manual a few times, and often keep it open when I'm entering parts. A few questions for those...

Hi! Can you please recommend some video tutorials (on youtube, free, or paid) that explain how to make MIDI sound real? Especially for orchestral and piano sounds. Thanks a lot!

Is there a way to prevent Cubase from sending MIDI events when moving the playhead cursor in the Project window? I am working on a project with multiple MIDI tracks, each using Expression Maps, and every time I move the playhead cursor Cubase sends all of the MIDI data it finds below the cursor...

Hi there, I wonder if someone can suggest the best way to deal with this: I'm getting a clipped sound at the beginning of my bounced tracks whenever I use negative delays on a track in Logic. It must be because the bounce is rendering a negative delay from the first midi note meaning it starts...

Every so often, I check to see if Yamaha /Steinberg have released a new controller for Cubase - they never have :( But I end up on their Nuage Control Surface page, just lusting after its beauty. Unfortunately it also has an almost house price to go with it! Nuage Control Surface for Cubase /...

Is there are reason why FL Studio is the only DAW where the lowest note is on C2 instead of C0 ? It's not a big deal but I always have to rethink when I look at the piano roll in another DAW.

Hello I am experiencing a problem with the legato switch in CSB. When I switch the legato mode, the other midi channels in the same Kontakt Instance switch the legato mode too. (but only when I press the space bar to start the playback) Am I missing something? I attached a video where you can...

Recreated another theme with MIDI, this time the theme from Deep Blue Sea by Trevor Rabin. This one took a lot longer, just did it by ear so some parts aren't perfect, hope ya's enjoy! Libraries used: Jaeger (Main Strings) Metropolis Ark 1 (Brass, Choir, Spiccato Strings) Action Strikes...

Yo! A lot of my libraries sit there waiting for my attention, so I'd thought I'd give them some. I applied them to the Dragonheart theme, hope ya's enjoy the nostalgia! Libraries used: NOVO Essentials (to thicken the strings) Jaeger Symphony Series Strings (for con sordino) Symphony Series...

Hi there! My first orchestral track ever! Can't believe it's happening!! Hard to imagine that just some two months ago I didn't know how to add a track in DAW! It's far from perfect, but I just had to force myself to finish it and put it out there. Skills take time and I am willing to dedicate...

OK, so I saw this guy trigger chords by using some of his laptop's keys. Anyone knows how to do this? It would be very useful to test libraries patches while not near a MIDI keyboard, like on my 2nd computer. Ideally, even use this to step record maybe? How could I do this? I'm on Windows 7 64...
