Insert Effects MIDI control

is it possible to control insert effects with MIDI? I'm trying to use robotronic vocoder plugin and it really should let me control the keys on it somehow, but I find no way other than clicking on the keys wich is nonsense...please help thanks.

Eric44,
The reverb and chorus send levels CC9 and CC93 are parameters programmed into the actual soundfont preset. This means that if the parameter isn't set in the preset then you won't be able to hear the effect. It seems that many of the X-Fi synths may have their global reverb and chorus levels set to a low value.
We can change this by editing the midi synths with Vienna Soundfont Studio by increasing the value of reverb and/or chorus in the Preset Zone or play with the levels in the instrument zone, where he can set a different level of FX for each instrument in a preset.
Open Vienna</LI>
Load the SFBank you want to use (X-Fi synth banks located in Windows/System32)</LI>
Expand the bank, click on Preset Zone of the sound</LI>
Click on the reverb below and adjust the levels.</LI>
Save the bank and reload it in Sonar/Nuendo</LI>
You will need to do this for all of the sounds you want to have effects on. You will also want to make sure that EAX is on in the ACM mixer.

(thanks to Norman for the extra info)

Midi controlled sounds

My midi controlled sounds cut off when controller keyboard note is lifted creating a click as the "sample is stopped" any Ideas ?
this is domianent on piano patches

Thanks for your reply Blueberry. The fact that I have overlapping objects is not in dispute here. What effect does it have? I don't understand what difference it makes in terms of the operations within MainStage2. That's what the question is.
As it turns out, there are several objects highlighted in blue (in layout view), but that doesn't tell me what it means. In the layout view, I had put pedals and switch controllers together based on the keyboards they are connected to, and they match the physical layout I have on the floor. I also put pitch and mod wheels next to each of the keyboards. I don't know whether I need to do this, but I thought it would help to see what's going on, and to map functions with controls.
Is it an innocuous message telling me that the graphic might not be clear, or is it saying that there is an underlying configuration issue which will prevent operation ? If it's graphical, then it still looks like I want it to look, but if it's something programmatic which will disable functionality, then that's a different story. In that case, I want to know how to resolve the issue, otherwise there is no issue from my perspective. Things look like I want them to look.
Still looking for something more conclusive.
Thanks,

To Creative Labs: Please design a soundcard with (IFX)Insert Effects and Flash Memory ch

To Creative Labs,
Please in the future?design a soundcard that i can load a lot of (IFX)Insert effects like Reverb, Chorus, Delay, Flanger, Resonance, Equalizer but for every Sound or Soundfont I select in the Contron Panel and also?to memorize these effect settings and?at the end the (MFX)Master Effects,?Compressor and Master Equalizer?effects, like?in KORG Triton synthesizers.
Also?in that soundcard i want flash memory chips that i can load?Soundfonts and Samples?and after PC restart or Shut Down the sounds will stay in memory of the soundcard and remembered perfectly with the effects settings after Log on back to Windows.
That capabilities will be so special for musicians?and the sound will be so professional.
Thank you,
Thodoris, Greece.

I have this problem only when using mic in?ventrilo. If you want to get rid of this problem you need to disable sound enchantements? in sound settings and then its fine, however you lose CMSS-3D with it. But its funny tho, if you disable CMSS-3D in Creative Control Panel you still get this issue, it only works if sound enchantements are disabled in windows sound settings.

In Logic Pro 9, how many midi controlled software instruments do you get...?

In Logic Pro 9, how many midi controlled software instruments do you get and is there possibility to download more as it says 40 on the programs info on the Mac Store, as i intend to compose on it but with only 40 instruments it's not really worth it.
So i was just wondering whether it let you download more for free.
Thanks for reading
~Matt

Yes: I too am interested in the software instruments available in Logic Pro: one has to be a bit wary of the jam packs because there don't seem to be many solo instruments included. But I looked at the Logic screen in an Apple store the other day, and it worked like GarageBand in
this respect: you created a new track choosing the software instrument option and a whole lot of instruments came
up in a column on the right: lots of solo wind instruments, plenty of keyboards and guitars of course and not very many solo strings, only one violin, in the world music subsection under Irish fiddle. Yehudi Menuhin
where are you when we need you?
What I've been trying to find out is which part of the purchase does this long list of software instruments arrive with, because it's basically the only reason
I'm interested - I get on fine with gb but it
Just hasn't got enough instruments, and as I say the jam packs don't seem
to resolve this ? Or do they? Could someone please help
me with this?

Setting levels with insert effects

My understanding is that when tracking in Logic Pro, you should aim for average levels of about -12 dBFS, with peaks around -6 dBFS. When I'm recording an electric guitar track via DI with no insert effects, this isn't hard to do: with the input gain turned all the way down, my Scarlett 18i20 gives me a nice level on my Les Paul at just about that.
But when I'm performing, I need to hear what the guitar is going to sound like through an amp, so I place an insert AmpliTube AU patch on the track (along with EQ, noise gate, etc.). But now my nice -12 dBFS average level is more like 0 dBFS.
But does this matter? The audio is captured with plenty of headroom. I can bring the level down in the mix with the fader. So I don't really care if, with the insert effects, the level shows as 6 or 10 dB higher than the pre-effects level, right? So long as I'm not clipping the output, it shouldn't matter, correct?

Correct.

FI documents effect when controlling was not activated

Hi Experts,
I have one issue regarding when the controlling was not activated.
I posted some FI documents relating expenses etc. that time contrllong module was not configured. Now controlling was configured. Can i show that expense documents effect in controlling which are posted in FI previously.
Thanks and Regards
Balu

Hi,
If the controlling Module is activated subsequently, the earlier will not get updated automatically. System will not be able to identify to which cost center the document should get updated.
Probably, some custom program needs to be used to update the Cost Centers for the earlier documents.
Thanks

Can Insert a ring control to the multicolumn's cell?

My labview version is 8.6, using multicolumn to show some test info. Now want to insert the ring control in to a cell. Could you please tell me if there is any way ?
David

There is a hard way to do it:
Use a ring which is normally invisible. When the user clicks a cell (propably you want to limit this to certain columns), you move the ring at the position of the cell and make it visible. It needs some coding to make it work, so any other approach is preferable. Furthermore, I didn't succeed in aligning everything properly (the border of the ring did match the cell border, but the string inside the ring was misaligned to the strings in the other cells).

Recording Insert Effects

I'm sure this has been covered before but after multiple searches and rereading the manual, I am still coming up dry. The manual claims that inserted effects can be destructively recorded along with source audio to an audio track. I cannot make this happen.
I record enable track 1, the proper input is assigned, and I see and hear my audio coming in through the insert effect. I record-enable the track and record my audio. I get the source audio but the insert effect is not recorded - what I have captured is dry signal. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Track/Region Export
The File > Export menu also features several Export functions for Regions and tracks.
These allow you to render audio or Audio Instrument tracks with all active effects and
automation into a single new audio file. All export functions launch a file selector
window, allowing you to name the exported file(s) to specify the export file format
(SDII, AIFF, and so on) and bit depth, where applicable. The default save location for
exported files is the Audio Files folder of the Project. If no project is specified, the source
folder (of the audio) is the default target.
• Export > Region as Audio File: Exports selected Regions as the specified file type.
• Export > Track as Audio File: Simply select the desired audio track in the Arrange
window’s Track List. All Regions on the track will be selected, and you can use this
export function to merge all Regions into a single contiguous audio file.
Is this what you were looking for?

Effective Change control for BW

Hi All,
We have a requirement for developments in two different development environments, to merge together in one production BW System. This will require very effective change control process, of managing changes to common BW objects. I have a couple of questions for the BW Gurus.
1) What is the Best way to manage this?
2) Is there a recommended third party tool to manage this change?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Chandan.

If the resources are available I'd set up another development system that only contains common BW objects and is delivered to both development systems. Or you set up one BW system as master development system and create two different transport layers, one directly to test and prod and one 'Master' layer that only contains the common objects and is delivered to your second development and test and prod.
I'd definitely set up a common test system so that problems in development are found out early.
Other ideas:
Create strict naming guides and implement authorizations in your development systems so that it isn't possible to create the same InfoObject in both systems.
Have regular meetings between the two teams to identify common InfoObjects and DataSources early on.
Depending on the size of your SAP environment you might think about registering a namespace at SAP. This gives you a /MYNAME/-prefix on your BW-objects to differentiate the objects. But I'd only recommend it for big installations.
Best regards
Dirk

Is it possible to assign MIDI control to change tempo?

I would like to be able to change tempo (say, from 120 to 180 bpm) by using a fader from a MIDI keyboard (Edirol PCR-30). I can assign MIDI commands to Logic's buttons, volume, pan... but I can't figure how to do it with tempo. Any help would be appreciated.

Environment-->New-->Fader-->Specials-->Tempo Control
You get a fader which you can then assign a MIDI control command to.
I've heard somewhere that this is really buggy in recent years so use at your own risk, but at least in theory that's how you do it.

Midi controlled filters, aka use mod wheel to change cut off frequency

Does garageband have any filters that you can control in real time via midi? Such as dynamically changing the cut off frequency of a low pass filter.
I'd love to do a classic filter sweep using the mod wheel.
Are there any midi controlled AU plugins that can do this?

Any automation in GB is done via the automation curves.

PC 2.5 - Test of Effectiveness Vs. Control Monitoring

Hi All,
can you elaborate on the deference between the tow - from a business view and a technical view.
Thanks

Test of Effectiveness: This is to test the manual controls. We will be able to perform this for a manual control only if a test plan is assigned to it. We will have test steps under a test plan and when u perform test of effectiveness, the control owner gets this assessment and he needs to mention whether the test steps are done or not and he can give an overall rating for the test. If he gives the rating as Deficient or Significnatly Deficient, an issue is generated and sent for a review.
Control Monitoring: Control monitoring can be done only if a rule is assigned to an automated control. In the rule we mention, what exactly should be done in the monitoring process. For example: In rule we can mention that the data related to Company code XYZ should be filtered and displayed. It displays the data corresponding to that company and we can monitor the data. Another example is if you want to capture if there is any change to a particular data attribute, you can also do that.

MIDI control besides the basics

Hi,
I'm rocking iPad Garageband from an M-Audio Oxygen49 MIDI controller keyboard.
I'd like to use the sliders on my keybaord to control different parameters in the instruments, like the filters on synths, or the drawbars in the organ.
Does anyone know if these instruments can be controlled in this way by MIDI?
Thanks
Paul

Anyone got song position midi control to work with the duet or any other control surface?
The Key Command dialog handles much better with any midi controllers. It supports multiple midi events, sysex messages etc... For example I can use same CC# number with different ranges to control Rewind, Forward i.e CC12 ( 0-0 ), CC12 ( 1-1 ) assigned for different buttons of my external controller.

Midi control assignments on KCom Window are removed

I cannot exactly understand in which precise circumstances it happens, but every time I switch on my Mac, launch Logic8 and open the song I was worked on, Midi control assignments on KCom Window are disappeared. I reput them 5 or 6 times but they aren't saved.
Any comments?

Preferences are saved to pref files when Logic quits.
Create an assignment, quit Logic, restart Logic. If that assignment is not there, that indicates possibly a permissions problem, where the preferences can't be written.

De-assign MIDI control?

Is it possible to de-assign a MIDI control? As it is, two of the rotary controllers on my Axiom 25 are assigned to channel strip faders and pans, respectively. This seemed to be so by default; none of them show up in the Controller Assignments pane. Does anyone know if there is a way to delete these assignments?

Your controller is sending MIDI volume (7) and Pan (10) data, which the selected channel will respond to.
If you don't want your controller to control the channel strip, then don't send that info, or change the CC numbers the controller sends. There are ways of filtering, or transforming it in Logic, but the simplest solution is to not send those specific messages which have a specific MIDI function in the first place.
If you want to use you controller to control other things, stay away from using those specific MIDI CC numbers that do specific things (modulation, volume, pan, expression, bank changes, mode changes etc)
