  • Strange glitch!!

    I'm working on a piece with VI with fairly busy orchestration and suddenly from nowhere I get a glitch, distorted sound, the kind that's not good for the speakers, and this happens in the exact same place every time, but if I begin playback a a few seconds before the glitch spot it doesn't happen, only when I play it from the start of the piece. If somebody has had something like that happen to them one time or another and know a solution I'd be grateful to hear about it. Thanks.

  • A wild guess - could it be that you are simply distorting something ...? In a "busy instrumentation" the amount of amplitude summing can be huge, thus overloading somthing in the output. The fact that it doesn't happen when you play just from a few bars before could mean that the VI choses another articulation when coming from another context.

  • Ah yes, that would make sense, simple but logic explanation. Also I had to temporarily de-optimize all my tracks due to the constant changes, so that itself could explain it. One great thing about VI is that that it lets you use a GREAT amount of instruments in the same piece, with the old way that would of been impossible.

  • Guy,

    You're use of samples is obviously at an advanced stage. I really enjoyed your demos on you webpage. Question for you about the VI. You mentioned that you can allow a "GREAT" amount more instumentation with VI in real time as opposed to the pro-edition. Can you elaborate a little? Thanks!

  • Sure no prob,

    I'm just taking advantage of the 12 patches allowed in a matrix. By putting one instrument in each patch you will already have 12 instruments for just a single track! And since they are easily triggered..., especially once you get the hang of it.
    As with the Pro Ed, I would often have dozens of plug ins with just 1 measure playing, lot of waste... And also the optimize function is VERY handy. So all in all it's very well thought up since it's so economical, well maybe not to buy....
