MIDI foot pedal control for Amplitube 5 within cakewalk?

[kyle3108]

Hello, so I recently purchased a Line 6 FBV Express MK2.  I can use the pedal perfectly fine in the stand alone Amplitube 5 software but it's when I try to use it within Cakewalk I cant seem to get it working. I have the device enabled in the Preferences>MIDI>Devices menu but i when I go to set up my MIDI inputs I just doesn't seem to recognise them. 

Any help greatly appreciated.

Works fine here.

Enable “Enable MIDI input” on the Amplitube 5 Plugin window menu (on the down arrow next to VST2 or VST3). 

Then create a MIDI track with the Express MK2 on its input.  Then route the MIDI track to Amplitube 5.  Make sure input echo is enabled on that MIDI track.

In the MIDI track, where you would normally tell the MIDI track what synth or MIDI port to send the MIDI data to, select Amplitube 5 on the drop down menu. 

This is assuming you have enabled “Enable MIDI input” on the Amplitube 5 Plugin window.

Make sure you can see all of the controls by selecting "All".
Then you can select/change ins and outs and other parameters.
This image is of an audio track. A MIDI track works the same way although some of the options are different.

Am I meant to be looking for amplitube in this drop down, been searching everywhere can't find a way to link the tracks, anyone able to provide a step by step on exactly what to click, cant for the life of me figure this out.

Thanks for all your time so far.

-Track 1 is just a normal track with amplitube loaded on it

-Track 2 is a MIDI track

That did the trick, thanks. Problem was I never selected Amplitube on the bottom left of picture.
