Something's wrong with Vsti plugins ?

[sergedaigno 11]

I drawn some Midi CC events (CC1 Modulation, CC7 Volume, CC11 Expression, CC10 Panning) into the piano roll. Vsti plugins sometimes respond well to some while been not affected at all by other CC changes . Also changing the velocity value into the Event List has no effect on Kontakt player.

SampleTank 3        : Event List Velocity, Yes   |   CC11, No    |   CC7, No    |   CC10, No    |   CC1, No
Kontakt player 6  : Event List Velocity, No    |   CC11, No    |  CC7, Yes    |   CC10, Yes   |   CC1, Audio Engine dropout
Real Guitar 5         : Event List Velocity, Yes    |   CC11, Yes   |  CC7, Yes   |   CC10, No     |   CC1, Yes

I don't see how to manage a problem that is not evenly distributed among those plugins. Any suggestion is welcome.

Well, it's basically up to each respective VST instrument how to react to CC events. With Kontakt, it's up to each sample library how midi CC and velocity (and all other modulations) are handled.

I don't think Cakewalk transmits CC etc. differently to different synths, so check each synth's settings carefully.

Good luck!

I'm afraid you are right 🙂. Testing again in standalone mode using Loopmidi lead to same results. I had no doubt about the CC's transmission, but rather about the handling of Vsti's. Midi Learn should help to overpass some CC lacks. Thanks
