So I was minding my own business enjoying my Korg Minilogue and then what the ... Korg released the Minilogue xd.  Ooo ... GAS kicked in, but I just got the Minilogue.  I thought it would be nice if someone created an add-on to provide these new features (better filter, digital wavs, effects).  Not to hard, any takers please.  Well I looked at the Korg FM Volca and wasn't sold.  So I turned to DIY.  I setup a Raspberry Pi with SunVox.  Long story short, wow SunVox is amazing.  I just wanted to point this out to any Synthesis explorers.  I can now run the midi out of the Minilogue into the midi in on Rasp Pi.  Add my Zoom CDR effects pedal and put my GAS in check...

Here's my cave.

Its been one year with Bandlab and its been a great one at that!!!   Thanks to Meng and all the team at Bandlabs.  You have brought Cakewalk back from the brink and made it a rocking solid DAW.

I would also like to thank the many contributors on the forums.  Great people, great themes, good times.

Isn't General MIDI 2 nearly 20 years old now? I think the spec came out in 1999.

MIDI 2.0 is a different beast, and looks pretty cool.

I especially like the MIDI CI part, where controllers can actually tell your DAW what their capabilities are.

Ooo this sounds promising!!!   But this would also require a Daw software provider to take advantage of the feature.  Plug for CbB to show controller support some love!

For those wishing to speed up the process.  Make CbB the windows default midi file player, then double clip on a midi file.  CbB will load up the TTS soft synth for all tracks and the song tempo will be set.  Now you can substitute other soft synths to taste by coping the midi to new synth tracks.  EZdrummer, SIBass, .... 

Then substitute parts with real instruments.

I think this is a great feature when playing around with covers.  Wish I knew about this feature a long time ago.

Rule number 1, there are no rules!

The dude does provide great youtube how too's!

Thanks Mark,

Also thanks to Alexey for his work in this area!  I hope Bandlab can give some love to this area.  I would like to re-voice this request.  I think with Cakewalks Pro-Channel and superior gain staging, an improvement in this area would go a long way in the  Cakewalk feature set.

I would love to customize my X-Touch Compact when using Mackie Control Protocol  (MCP) for my work-flow.

Is it true you must run MCP to use motorized faders?

Azslow and others (McLeod) make custom dll's, which is very nice of them, but does this require compiling code?  What happens when Bandlab releases update, will this process break?  Is there a video showing how this works.  Is it customizable?

This control surface customization exists for basic midi and I have tried it with non-motorized fadars and was not happy with lack of fader control.  Since MCP is well defined couldn't Bandlab provide a mapping UI for user customization?  This would be the bees knees!!!

Thanks for listening and Thanks to Azslow and McLeod for their contributions!!!

Thanks for sharing Craig.  Looks like a very comfortable setup!!

Hey Craig, would love to see your studio.  Ever do a tour?
