meathman Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 David, Thanks so much for that template! It totally rocks! A couple questions: In your multi instruments (soft inst.) environment, you have lots of the mulits only using channels 1-8 (9-16 are x'ed out) I also noticed these selected as inputs to your multi channel auxes. Why dont you use all 16 channels of midi. Is this because these instruments only support 8 stereo outputs in multichanel mode? Also- You seem to have the output of something coming into a transformer and channel splitter then to the auxes. Im not sure I understand how you did this. Looks like you are trying to have controller messages seperate for each channel.... I get that but dont really understand the signal flow of all these objects.......Any clarificaion would help Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Yes, the Kontakt 2 library I used only has 8 instruments/plug-in instance. As for the transformer, it was something like "take all MIDI CC between 7 and 10 (to get both pan and volume) and route them to the appropriate auxes". That way moving pan or volume on a subchannel of the multi instrument results in the corrsponding Aux obj adjusting its pan/volume accordingly, and the other way around.

meathman Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Cool- So is this right? Main Audio Instrument Channel --> Transformer----> Splitter---> Auxes----> I see that the Auxes are cabled somewhere, what is that for? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred B Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I see that the Auxes are cabled somewhere, what is that for? It's for "the other way around" as David has mentioned. The Auxes are cabled back to the multi-instrument such that if you move the Aux faders the MIDI faders will follow. I'm surprised that this cabling doesn't create an infinite feedback loop, but the environment seems to employ some tricky prevention mechanism which I've noticed also with other similar configurations.

David Nahmani Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 It seems the rule in the environment is: if you somehow cable an object back to itself, it does not feedback the information. It's not logical at first, but so useful it just makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
