HowdyAll I started playing with the assignment of controls on my midi keyboard to cells on the ACT MIDI property page. I successfully assigned the modulation dial on my keyboard to a VST plugin's volume control (it is in cell S2). It works great, and the volume changes in real-time while playing a track Question: how do I now record any changes in the midi controller? I tried doing it via the Write Enable mode for that track, but nothing was recorded.

Great - thank you!

Hi all. Is it possible to have more than one plugin open? For instance, I have a limiter plugin and loudness meter in my master channel, that I need to have open simultaneously to monitor real-time changes from the limiter.

I just connected my new Scarlett 4i4 and cannot be more pleased!

AH - thank you! I was looking for "Master bus" in the Source Category - no wonder I couldn't find it.

Hi there, this post triggered my curiosity: I checked my export source, which is also the h/w. My question is - how do I change the source to the Master bus?

Thank you -- I think I can now make an informed decision. Some people here on the forum have spoken favorably of the Motu brand as well.

Thanks for your input, it's good to know about USB2. I noticed that even the Gen 4 Scarlett audio interfaces still use USB2. I can get a second-hand 6i6 gen2. I suspect that it will outperform my current old Presonsus Audiobox USB 96 - even if it's just because it has better Asio drivers. What is your take on this?

Thank you for these very helpful tips,. You mentioned above the target latency is not possible on my interface -- are you referring to my audio interface (Presonus Audiobox 98)? If so, I can get a Scarlett 5i5 2nd gen for an excellent price. Would this one be better?

Than you, this has made a huge difference . Your recommendation to use Throttlestop, greatly ipacted performance (I just hope my PC doesn't bomb from overheating CPU's)

Hi there. Does your Scarlet 6i6 have USB2 or USB3? Do you think this may make a difference in playback performance?

Hi John, can you please upload that screenshot? It seems to be broken,

Thank you so much for answering this.

I downloaded the file from the link supplied, and attached a snapshot of its properties to ensure it's the latest. So I just copied it into the "Shared Utilities" folder and that's it? If that's the case, then I'm afraid it didn't make any difference.

Thanks, but how do I do that?

Thanks a lot. I will give it a try

Hi, I had to go through the immense pain of having to reinstall everything after a hard drive failure. I installed all my synth plugins, but for some reason, if I open a project, it cannot find them! If you look at my screen grab, Analog Lab v is one of a few that are installed, yet it is missing in the Synth Rack. If I remembered every instrument that I used in these "missing" synths, I would have just loaded them for new, and reassigned them to the tracks, but there are quite a few instances of some of them. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi, I started playing with the chord analyzer plugin, but it only gives descriptions for each chord. What I need is the actual symbol for each chord. Is there another chord analyzer that can do this?

Here is a time saver - I set up the Step Sequencer to work for the TTS-1 and the free Drum Pro 64 drum sets. It's just a simple Caewalk project file. I know, TTS-1 is old, but I still find its drums very useful and use it with the SS to quickly build new drum patterns. Step Sequencer.cwt

I actually just found out that each percussive instrument in any of the TTS-1 drum sets can be individually panned when going into Edit mode.

Ok, thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated.

Thank you, thank you! That is quite a hidden setting. I would never have found it myself.

I'm using an old one - FM8. It's the only one that doesn't seem to change its pitch range inside the synth.

Thank you very much! This is a huge help. It works. It seems like one can run a cal script only once -- is that true?

I added the RPN envelope for my track (see screenshot), but I'm not sure how to add the specs you mentioned {x times 128}.
