Title: Visual feedback on the piano rol in FL Studio
Post by: silikonanswer on October 09, 2012, 10:31:27 pm
Hi,

I am very happy with the la test update, great new prestes :-). I use Spark with FL Studio and when I press the pads they don't get a visual representation on the piano rol. Has anybody experience this? My generic keyboard controller does. It is a pity Spark is not included in the list of supported controllers and have to use it as generic. The version I am using is 10.8 beta and the communication with Spark seems working ok as I get the message of connection established ;-)

Hi,
Spark controller is directly connected to the plugin and does not use the DAW.
If you want to record MIDI from Spark inside FL Studio you have to enable MIDI out in Spark.
In Preferences panel. There are 2 preferences, "Send MIDI from Pads" and "Send MIDI from sequencer".
Then you have to create a MIDI track and record from Spark plugin.

Unfortunately it doesn't work :-(. If I enable the midi from pads it doesn't connect to the controller. I Send you the image files.

1 - First one. It connects to the Soark controller but no midi. I can trigger drum sounds.
2 - Only transmits midi data
3 - Spark configuration

You have to use the first configuration.
Then try to create a new MIDI track and set its input to Spark plugin.
I will try to do it later today and get back to you.

It seems to be not so easy with FL Studio.
Have to contact them to ask if this is possible.

You can't record MIDI information generated from a plugin inside FL Studio.  :-\
