MatrixBrute - General discussions / Sequencer routing in Duo Split mode

« Last post by Sunate on Today at 03:42:50 pm »

Hello just got Matrixbrute and am slowly getting into it. I'm definitely a dabbler rather than a serious musician making music for my own interest so apologies for dumbness of question which is a bit like others on here but i hope not exactly the same. Having discovered the Tangerine Dream-esque possibilities of the Duo Split mode with a sequence bass and noodly   https://100001.onl/ https://1921681254.mx/ top end I would like to go further vis I would like to be able to route the sequencer clock to my drum machine and maybe to the sequencer on the OP1 (only available via USB midi computer link no traditional midi input) and id like to sometimes double up the notes i play live on the rest of the keyboard to an instrument in Ableton. In short how do i route sequencer notes one way, played notes on the top end and clock to different locations  in duo split mode. Sorry if this is dumb I though midi control centre "lower part midi" might solve the problem or routing in Ableton but I get all notes on or nothing on.

Free Speech / V Collection 3 download vs single instruments

« Last post by Sunate on Today at 03:41:33 pm »

I have one license number for V Collection 3 installed on my e-licenser, but can I just download and install the demo/updated versions of each individual instrument via my account to get the latest versions rather than getting the entire pack? Will each one work with the single license I have registered on my dongle or do I have to download the entire pack each time https://snaptube.cam/ ?
I also cannot see an area on the site where I can download the latest V3 Collection in its entirety.

Regards,.

KeyLab Mkii - Feature Requests / Make "Transport" buttons available to send MIDI in user mode

« Last post by DiSc on October 18, 2021, 03:54:35 pm »

Hello,
I am using the Keylab MKII to control a self made synthesizer via MIDI (only DIN, not USB). I'm not using any DAW or software synth at all. Unfortunately, obviously, the transport buttons send no midi commands: I can not see any messages in the MIDI console and my synthesizer does not receive any messages from these buttons.
Also, I can not assign any commands to these buttons in the MIDI control center or in user edit mode.

As my synthesizer also features sequencer, arpeggiator and recording/playback features, I would like to use these buttons to control these.

How can I set up the transport buttons to send MIDI messages in user mode? If this is not possible, these buttons are unusable, lets say completely useless, for me 

Please make these buttons available for sending MIDI (at least control command) messages in user mode.

Regards,
Dirk

SQ80 V - Feature Requests / Keep the Ensoniq program (preset) name

« Last post by MarkP on October 18, 2021, 02:22:14 am »

The character set Ensoniq used for their program names was slightly odd. It was almost ASCII, but not quite. Among other features, it allowed them to display decimal points with numerals, encoded in one character, 1. for example. This was in addition to the normal ten integer digits which I think do use standard ASCII codes. There were other idiosyncrasies, too. Rather than just apply ASCII decoding to program names it would be nice if the SQ80 V displayed them as they are meant to appear.

ECHO1. instead of ECHO#

Pigments - General Discussions / Re: Assign midi controller to hold function in pigments

« Last post by LBH on October 18, 2021, 12:06:24 am »

Hi,

Look like noone else will reply. Hope this helps.

Hold (Keyboard page) = Sustain (Pedal) = midi CC #64 = Reserved midi CC in Pigments.
So any control using midi CC #64 should work.

Farfisa V - Users Community / New song with Farfisa V, and unrelated song with Radio BBC play!

« Last post by aaron aardvark on October 17, 2021, 07:31:50 am »

I put 2 songs in my music website: “Please Pretty Please” (it has Farfisa V) is the song on top, and “Black & White” (it was played on the Radio BBC by DJ Tom Robinson: whose song “2-4-6-8 Motorway” had lots of play on MTV and/or VH1 in the 80’s, and has collaborated with Elton John, Brian May of Queen, and Peter Gabriel) is the next song down (no Arturia on that song). Please tell me how you like the music and how it can be improved, and I promise to return the favor (leave me a link). Here is my link:

V Collection 8 - General Discussions / Re: Novation SLmk3 users?

« Last post by JDoo on October 16, 2021, 11:55:51 pm »

What i have found, with my SL MK3... is it makes sense to map the first 5 Faders.   
Fader 1       Fader 2         Fader 3        Fader 4      Fader 5
Part            Brightness     Timber        Time          Movement
Volume       CC18             CC19            CC16         CC17

Doesnt really matter for channel volume (I am using 41), but the others - are fairly consistent with the SLMKIII and Arturia's defaults... so I am using them.  Anyway - I ended up hosting my Arturia synths into a Mainstage concert and using these CC messages.  I keep every Arturia soft synth mapped to these CCs and positions on the SL MKIII.  What I found that works.. is setting the first SL MKIII Parts (1-4) to hardware synths / external effects, and Parts 5-8 for a Mainstage Concert mapped as above.  It's consistent across all songs, and makes using the SL MKIII as a master controller- way cool.  Am using the faders above, along with aftertouch (CC:1 / Modulation) and the wheels for live play.   I have a few other consistently mapped Rotary Control / Buttons for Previous / Next Patch, Favorites, and Previous/Next Song.  I think there may be others... but the key (for me) has been setting up consistent Rotary, Faders, Buttons across Concerts, Songs, Patches, Controls.  The SL MKIII is a great controller, after you figure out how you're going to use it - and how to map things..

KeyLab Users Community / Yet another one-finger chord app for Keylab Mark1's

« Last post by synthagora on October 16, 2021, 04:05:39 pm »

Yet another one-finger chord interface for my Arturia Keylab 49 Mk1. Previous versions were console based and used python. Their replacement, Midichi, is written for Windows in C# offering a GUI in a self-contained exe file that’s available for free download here https://synthagora.blogspot.com/2021/10/introducing-midichi-midi-chord-interface.html

Does anyone have a workaround for this?
I also want to change presets of external gear (e.g. Moog Minitaur) within my DAWless setup.
Is there a hardware device that can send program change messages and is cheaper and smaller than the BSP?
