Still no midi learn in VE

[sveinolav]

Hei, downloaded and installed the new update, and was a bit disappointed when the midi learn "bug" still existed. Also when assigning a controller f ex in the v-span matrix (right side under control edit) the drop down list is expanded over the whole screen. And on a 30" that means you must move your mouse a long way.. In the VI surface this menu is minimized to the surface of the interface. Also, here midi learn works. Is it hard to fix this M Learn bug, since its taking so long time ? Its an awkward process to manually assign every controller in a large set up, so I hope it will be fixed in the next revision. Apart from that, thank you for a great instrument/library. regards svein

I'm not sure what the problem is. Please can you elaborate, as once I've set up the controllers for one VI, I save a startup file and then it becomes the default for all others.

The problem is not in VI its in VE. You cant assign midi learn under OSX (intel mac Cubase 4.1 / Nuendo 4.1) According to my last thread on this, Paul confirmed the problem, and it was scheduled to be fixed. http://community.vsl.co.at/forums/p/17148/122902.aspx#122902 regards svein

No, I understand that, but why not set up the controllers in VI, save a startup file (make sure it is in the correct Custom data folder) and then all your VI instruments in VE will have the same controllers loaded by default.

 Hello Sveinolav,

the bug you reported (thanks!) will be fixed, but didn´t make it in this update, sorry. Our priority had to be on other more essential issues like opening 2 Vienna Ensembles at a time - as soon as this was done, we didn´t want to let you wait for this important update. I´m sure you understand. 

For now my workaround would be to get a 2-click mouse, it works perfectly fine. Or follow Dg´s suggestion....

Best,

Paul

Dg and Paul, I use the save Def setup solution for now, thank you for your quick replies and have a splendid afternoon. best svein

Could you explain  - - for those of us who don't yet know to create and save a startup file for one VI so that it becomes the default for other VI instances - - exactly how one does this? Am I correct in assuming it is possible in the OSX version as well as the Windows version?

Thanks

Basically you save a Preset in VI, and call it startup

Mine has all the controllers already set, so that all I have to do is drop matrices into the appropriate slots.

For each VI instance all controllers have to be set up individually.

That's useful if you want to use different controllers for different instruments (percussion versus string instruments for example)

I would recomment to generate an empty preset with a setup of all your controllers.

If you open a new VI instance load first this empty preset an than add  patches or matrices.

 

Thanks for a clear description of this procedure.
