Martijn Maatjens Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 In short: I want to use one or more tracks from a midi file with the TH3 plugin in Cakewalk. Somehow I cannot get sound. Longer explanation of what I have done: I have created a midi file with Tuxguitar. Next I have imported the midi file into cakewalk. I can then add tracks with the "standard" SI-drum and SI-bass by adding them as single instrument track and then copy the midi track on that track to get the drums or bass to play when I hit play. This works just great. I can hear the drums and bass playing. I also want to use a midi track for a guitar on the TH3 plugin. The TH3 plugin cannot be used as a single instrument track. When I add a MIDI track I cannot choose the TH3. When I add an Audio Track I can choose the TH3 plugin. If I arm it and push the Input Echo button I can even use my guitar to hear sounds and record them in the track. But when I copy a MIDI track on that Audio Track, I see the track appear, I see the lines of the midi notes, but I do not hear anything when I push play. I have "enabled MIDI input". What am I doing wrong? Maybe I want to do something which is not possible ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 TH3 is an FX plug-in to simulate a guitar amp and effects intended for use on audio data. It is not a guitar synth plug-in. It can only process MIDI data to control the amp and effects. It does not make sound on its own from MIDI data. Of the synths bundled with CbB, TTS-1 has a couple of guitar patches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scook Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 There are a couple links to free guitar synths in There are a fair amount of commercial libraries for Kontakt too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurre Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Suggestion, get Ample Guitar M Lite: https://www.amplesound.net/en/pro-pd.asp?id=7 Make midi for it and bounce to track to get audio. Use that audio with TH3. OBS. Use the "Main" tab. The strummer tab involves learning keyswitches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
