Bug report: VST3 midi control

This was reported last December: (Bug in Labs VST3) and is still an issue on the most current version of Analog Lab.

It happens with the VST3 version (not the VST or standalone) while using the MiniLab 3 Midi output.
The CC messages for instrument assigned knobs (knobs 1 to 4) turn them visually but do not affect the sound. This happens even if you change which CC is assigned.

You can test this by comparing it to what happens when using the mouse to turn the knob.

Thank you.

Hey @NickA thanks for reposting this.

I’ll let the team know about it.
Hopefully this bug will be fixed on future versions.

Best,

You’re welcome @sand.arturia . I’m glad I could help.

I should also mention that this was using Analog Lab Intro.

Noted @NickA thanks for clarifying.

Hi @NickA ,

I’ve just tried to reproduce this issue using Analog Lab Intro.

As far as I’m concerned, everything’s fine using the MiniLab 3 knobs to move the Analog Lab macros. The change in sound is audible.
(I tested using the MiniLab’s USB MIDI and MIDI DIN connections in Ableton, with VST3 format).

It would be interesting if you could share a bit more about your setup, such as the DAW you use and how your MIDI setup is configured (DAW MIDI settings and MIDI connections).

If possible, also try using the MiniLab to activate the Analog Lab macros in another DAW to see if the problem happens.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Bests,

Hi, I’m having the same exact problem in Reaper (latest version): physical knobs 1-4 on my Keylab Essential are moving the knobs in Analog Lab V, but nothing changes in sound, on the other hand if I use the mouse to move the knobs they works fine. This happens with the VST3 plugin only, the VST and standalone works fine. Also, in Ableton it works always fine both with VST and VST3.
In Reaper I also still get the old, jumpy knobs bug, both with VST and VST3 plugins and affecting ALL knobs (faders work fine). When this longstanding and annoying bug will be fixed?

Hey @maxdis VST2 should work, could you please try it on Reaper and confirm if it works?

Yes, VST2 works fine regarding the 1-4 knobs bug, but both VST3 and VST2 are very bad regarding the jumpy knobs bug

Hey @maxdis , thanks for notifying this.

We reported the bug and our team is working on it, we apologies for the inconveniences and hope to bring a solution soon.

Hi @niks.arturia and @sand.arturia,

My experience is the same as maxdis in Reaper with the VST3 version.
Thank you for looking into it.

Apparently nothing of this has been fixed in Analog Lab “Pro”: in Reaper knobs are still jumping all over the place (both with VST2 and VST3 plugins); also with VST3, moving some knobs using the “physical” knobs won’t do anything to the sound (although the knob is visually moving), I have to use the mouse to have some effects on the sound.

I’m having the exact same issue with the vst3 on Reaper. I was hoping to find some sort of solution here, since it’s a known bug already. Haven’t tried the vst2 yet.

Hi,

I’m new to Arturia and MiniLab 3.
It is still an issue with Analog Lab Intro VST3 version and Reaper (Windows 11 here). Knobs are visually moving but sound doesn’t change. No problem with the VSTi version though.

Did your team planned a fix for it, so we can benefit from VST3 improvement (e.g. window resizing) ?

Thanks

Ive had this issue, but it turns out that for some reason the controls were moving the part two macro’s, even though there was no tone set for part two.
This is why using the mouse works as it will be working on the first part.

I just tried again with the VST3 and… It’s working flawlessly. Il don’t understand, I tried for so long the other day, and I didn’t change anything. Another Windows mistery.

EDIT

I didn’t say anything, I still have the issue with knobs. I’ve been misleaded by faders working fine.

@Davebass5 did you find a way to solve it ?

I didn’t find a real solution, once i realised what was going on i just worked around it.
