Suite 2 and Midi
Posted: Thu Aug 05, 2010 7:27 pm
Hi Simon,
here´re some finding und ideas for Midi in Suite 2 :
- when linking a console push-button in the software to a external midi-keyboard or a midi-pad controller (Note On),
I encounter some problems. I´m not takling about buttons and switches in the Main Suite 2 Software
at this point, for now it only linking a push-button in console window (for example Behringer BCF2000)
to external midi-keyboard or a midi-pad controller with Note On and Note Off messages.
So I rightclick a push-button on the Console in the Software and go to the "Midi Setup" tab.
Here I select "Auto setup Midi" then I push the key or a pad I like to assign on my external keyboard or midi pad controller.
How the setting are made, but it won´t work as expected.
Suite 2 has detected a Controller instead of a Note On Command,it interpreted the velocity from the Note On message
as the value of this Midi controller. So the autodetection is wrong, but I can´t correct it by hand as well.
Where can I set it to Note On/Off triggering, did I miss something ?
At the moment I have to push the key or pad strong (velocity over 64) to activate and soft (velocity under 64) for releasing the button
in the console window. So it´s quite useless and should be addressed as soon as possible.
I also noticed that the Midi Status isn´t correct, maybe you can take a look at this, too.
- The "Trigger Level" adjustment-bar in the MIDI command setting Window (Console)
has some problems.There is no border on the right side and you can push the bar
out of the field of view and can´t get it back.
Sometimes it´s hard to click on the edge of this bar to adjust it, the mouse pointer
changes to a double arrow but it is till not clickable.
- The "Test" in the Midi-Console Window should be abortable.
When you have started this Test by accident, you have to wait till the end,
and all other controls in the Software are disabled in this time.
- Would be nice to have a "fetch the fader/knob" option for Midi-Controllers without motorfaders.
At the moment the software knob will immediately jump to the position of the real fader/knob when it moves.
- I can´t get the Midi-Time Code sync to work when Suite 2 is Master and Cubase is slave.
Cubase as master and Suite 2 as slave works fine.
Can somebody else check this, please ?
