Enej Johhem 2 Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) It would be great if Cakewalk can send Midi from one midi track to multiple instruments & effects. Another Request is that It would be great if I can automate the mute of Effects Plugin in the FX Rack Edited November 5, 2020 by Enej Johhem 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like to layer synth sounds with different instruments. I was kind of surprised when I discovered that Cakewalk doesn't already have that feature. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Until this is available in Cakewalk, you could use a VSTi that has a MIDI Thru function. Then you can route its MIDI out to as many synths as your CPU can handle. MIDImonitor 1.3 is an example of a VSTi that does MIDI Thruhttps://pw.promidi.com.au/softopen/midiMonitor_x64.zip Edited November 14, 2020 by Promidi 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roberto Navarro Camacho 2 Posted November 16, 2020 My Cakewalk is doing exactly this and I want to get rid of it. I don´t remember when it started, but I did not had this "problem" but after one of the updates of octuber, I started getting this issue that all midi instruments would play the same notes, even if there is no midi information on a midi track. For example, I have one song with 4 midi instruments, 3 Synths Pads and one with drums. For some reason Cakewalk started playing all the midi patterns on all instruments. I was able to change that by selecting a specific channel on the MIDI section of each instrument, but when I export the cakewalk session, it exports the same midi pattern on all midi instruments. Even though when doing playback in the cakewalk session it did not do this. I attach an image with the setup on cakewalk and sound samples of the result I get. Any ideas what is happening? test ok.mp3 test 1.mp3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can change the default by going to the insert synth options page and uncheck "Enable MIDI Output". For existing synths, go to the VST menu at the top of the synth properties page, and disable MIDI output. However, if you really do need MIDI output on a synth, you'll need to use a specific MIDI input on your other tracks, rather than Omni, None, or All Inputs, e.g.: 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
