Hello,
After upgrading my Analog Lab V to 5.10.4.5049 I am no longer hearing any of the instruments. I am currently only using it as a stand alone player. I checked the audio/midi settings and confirmed that it’s set to ‘built-in output’ and I can hear the test audio. I can also play and hear the individual stand alone instruments like Emulator II V. Any advice would be appreciated.
iMac 3.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 2015
OS 12.7.6
Yep that did the trick. Thank you!
Update: while I can hear some instruments in Analog Lab V, I can’t hear other instruments while I use my keyboard controller. For example, I can hear the piano patches but I can’t hear the B3 patches. Strangely, I can hear it when I play the notes with the mouse on the GUI, but not when I play the notes on the controller (even though I can see the notes being played on the GUI).
Which MIDI channel do you send to Analog Lab?
For factory presets the Upper manual is set to MIDI CH 1, the lower to MIDI CH 2 and the Pedals to MIDI CH 3. If you use other MIDI channels, then you get no sound. Also if you are out of range with your keys, then you also get no sound. So be sure you are inside range for each manual.
So it seems that the only instruments within Analog Lab that I can’t hear the notes but see them moving in the GUI are B-3 and Vox Cont. These instruments have two rows of keys, so you’re probably right. The MIDI channels are set to Input 1 + 2.
Hi again @Stickleback ,
Im not sure, what you mean by this.
If you mean your controller for example is set to output on MIDI CH 1 to play the Upper manual, then you should not have any issues, if you use the standalone applications.
In a DAW the MIDI CH that counts is the MIDI CH that the DAW’s track is set to output to the plugin. So be sure your DAW is set to output the correct MIDI CH to Analog Lab.
Again, also be sure you use the key range the organs use. Play middle C note that’s MIDI NOTE 60 to test the Upper and Lower manual. Note that the Lowest Octave keys on B#'s organs is preset keys. if you somehow “play” a wrong key in that octave, then you will get no sound. If you look at a picture of a B3, then you’ll see the lowest octave have reversed colors.
Also be sure you don’t send a midi CC messages that turn down the volume somehow.
EDIT: Perhaps i should add, that VOX also have settings so for example only the BASS pedal will play and thus only in that bass octave using MIDI CH 1. A preset name is needed to examine that. EDIT END
I guess I didn’t quite understand your question about the MIDI channels. My reply was about the MIDI inputs (see screenshot).
The strange thing is that I play the exact same note on the keyboard as the note I just played with the mouse on the GUI. I can see it move but it won’t make sound.
What you show me is Audio Input.
What MIDI Channel is your Keyboard controller set to use? This setting is not set in Analog Lab but on your controller.
Please download your controller manual, if you don’t know about it, and then read about it there.
The reason you can see the keys on the Analog Lab GUI move is probably because Analog Lab is set to receive on ALL MIDI Channels. It’s like that by default.
Most instruments is set to ALL MIDI Channels by default. But not the Organs you mention. They are set as i have described. That mean that you will hear most instruments no matter which MIDI Channel your controller is set to use, but not the organs you mention. The Organs need to be send a correct specific MIDI Channel like i have described.
What you say seem to indicate you are not sending a correct MIDI Channel to Analog Lab.
This has happened with all of my Arturia Instruments and Effects. It’s been over a month now, and none of the fixes that Support have suggested are working.
Hi @QUBIQ. Welcome to the community.
Please start a new topic on this, and describe a case and how to replicate your issue. I’m quite sure the issue in this thread was a midi issue, but unfortunately the OP have not reported back.
It sound very strange if all your Arturia instruments and Effects have issues.
