As a test, I dragged an audio clip to an existing MIDI track. The Melodyne menu appeared. I chose the “Melodic” algorithm. The converted MIDI events appeared in the MIDI track (and played the same notes that the audio contained) I also tried the “Percussive” algorithm. That also created the MIDI events (albeit on the same note). So , on my system (configured as per my signature) that worked as expected. I have Melodyne assistant 5.1.1.003 and the source audio clip I used was a monophonic.

I have ended up simply writing my own CAL scripts.... like a pitch bend triangle wave generator.....(actual pitch bend events that can be transformed later)....for example.

Keyboard shortcut works here (I use ALT + i) when a plugin has focus (I just tried it)...... and even if, with a particular plugin, it doesn't, there is always the custom console.

Until the Bakers add this, maybe these workarounds might help. Create a keyboard shortcut to Input Echo Or Assign "Input Echo" to a button on the custom console.

My PC is configured as per my signature and I have yet to have any issues with the BETA drivers. I use a non Firefox browser to access the Focusrite BETA site. Here is a direct link to the BETA driver (Use a non Firefox to download) http://beta.focusrite.com/file.php?id=1377

Just to confirm. Do you mean "select" a track, or give a track the focus (meaning marking a track as active by highlighting its name field) - they are two different things.

If you open the Event List View, is there nothing in there as well?

You have not missed anything. Your steps are sound. I installed the trial version of Fabfilter Pro Q3 and I also could not get the VST3 version of Fabfilter Pro Q 3 to respond to program change MIDI events either. So I tried the VST2 version of Pro Q3, and that responded to program changes fine. This seems to be an issue with the VST3 version of Fabfilter and program changes as I tried another VST3 Equaliser that does indeed respond to program change MIDI events.

This is why I include the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 folder in a regular backup regime.

I don't understand. Pitch is frequency, BPM is Beats Per Minute (related to Tempo - or the rate at which the track is played)...... two unrelated things. If the import is a groove clip that the frequency might change, but is that what you want to achieve? You might have to rephrase the question. If I was to guess, maybe try converting the imported file into a groove clip. However, without a rephrased question or more information, we are just guessing.

You can also use the PRV and open up a Controller lane (Single lane mode works best) with the smart tool (or line tool) enabled. Holding down SHIFT while drawing produces a line of CC values.

Focusrite does supply their own dedicated ASIO driver. Definitely ditch ASIO4ALL and use Focusrite’s.

"it takes a minutes to response"..... I have never had this issue with Cakewalk, ever Cakewalk is very snappy, even on my oldish PC (see signature for specs)

One difference between in/out destination and Sends is that you can use sends to route the audio from the track to multiple destinations. If you have multiple different coloured buses as the multiple destinations, Cakewalk would not be able decide which colour to make the track. This diagram might explain the routing possibilities in Cakewalk: http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=Mixing.07.html

I just tried it here (PC and CbB as per sig) and it works Just to confirm, are you directing the in/out to the bus or a send? Here, directing the in/out to the bus changes the colour of the directed track. The “Send to” does not change the colour of the track (never has I believe).

My initial reply still applies - just substitute Controller with Pitch Wheel (the range changes from 0 to 127 to -8192 to 8191) I have written those CAL scripts for Pitch wheel events as well. I select two pitch bend events - the CAL scripts or generates (or replaces the events between) a straight line. This gives me a perfect glide every time. Another CAL script I have written for pitch bends is one that replaces the last of a group of selected pitch bend events with zero value. I got tired of overshooting the zero line when mouse drawing a series of pitch bend events. The CAL scripts just replaces the last pitch bend event with a zero value (preventing unintended slight detunes). The “Insert Series of Controllers” command also allows you to select Pitch Wheel events as well. The trick is, however, is getting the values right if they are not min or max. In my case, I just use my CAL scripts (with Studioware panels) - much easier for my workflow.

Controllers and velocities only have values between 0 and 127. Can you explain how you are getting values -2180 to 0 My specific workaround is to use CAL scripts to generate lines. I have one CAL script that draws a straight line between two controllers values, using the values as the start and end values (any controller values between get replaced with the line) One other CAL script generates a line that starts from 127 and ends in a value that I choose I have another CAL script that generates a line that starts from a value that I choose and ends in 127. I have written these scripts myself and are very specific to my workflow - they are not supplied with CbB I think, for you, a workaround might be to use the “Insert Series of Controllers” command under the “Insert” menu to generate a line. (make sure selection marker is set)

Me too.....(about the wait 'till BF part).... The discount might even be deeper then as well.....

If you want to best experience with Cakewalk by Bandlab, get a true native Windows PC. You will likely regret getting an M1 Apple Macbook to run Cakewalk by Bandlab using Parallel Desktop.

I don't know what to say. It works here. I am assuming you have added the articulation map in the PRV. Personally, if I wanted a VST that gives accurate pitch bend control, then Spitfire LABS is not it.

A bounced MIDI clip will only convert to audio if it has been routed to a VSTi (Not all are). Have you enabled Auto Crossfade? (under the track- options menu, or top right of the track window, next to the ripple edit button)

Use CC, not CC14b I experimented with an articulation map too and did manage to get the articulation map working - albeit a bit clumsy. I used generate CC99 > 0 , CC98 > 14 and CC6 > 64 and CC38 > 0 , then transform Wheel -8192 <> 8181 to CC6 61 <> 68 Of course you could use LABS MIDI learn to map a CC to Global Tune in LABS.... but then you’re back to working out the CC values that generate the -2 to 2 semitone range. Because the tuning range of LABS it so great, there would only be very few usable discreet values anyway. Any all this fluffing around, it might actually be easier to try and find a VST that actually responds to pitch bends with an actual -2 to 2 semitone range.

He would have to use CC6, CC38, CC98 and CC99 events to do this (as LABs uses NRPN 14 for Global Tune). Do you have plans to add NRPNs and RPN for the Transforms in the articulation maps? (I think I’ve already put a FR for this)

Which synth plugin are you using? Which CC are you Using? You could use a mathematical formula for work out the mapping from CC values to the tuning and then use Articulation Maps to do the conversion. In the example you provided, you could map -36 --> 36st to 0 --> 16383. In that example, if -36 is 0 and 36 is 16383, then the range of -2 to 2 is between 7736 to 8647 To change from 0 to 16383 to -36 to 36, the formula for the conversion is CC = (227.5417 x ST) - 8191.5. You would need to remove the mantissa. (I think that's right)
