Settings can get changed or altered without one realizing it, so that’s why it’s always better to test things with a new project and fresh preferences. the first attempts, one never knows sometimes with a project that has been around for awhile. (I guess one is MIDI and the other audio?).Īnyway, further comments welcome, but certainly it is now working. However, I am a little confused as to the two faders that appear in the mixer when you load an instrument in the rack. By the way, I should say that I have always used an Instrument Track before, and from earlier comments by yourself I am now learning how to use the Instrument Channel. Re : “ is the Play VST fader assigned to the Master Bus”. I am not sure if that is to be expected or not? Input was/is All. The MIDI was certainly getting through from the keyboard, but Play would not sound even if I used the Play keyboard on the Control Panel.Īll instruments are on channel 1 in the Cubase Inspector, however, when I check the drop down menu in Play, it says it is on channel 0. The setup for the other project, as far as I recall, was the same. Loaded first Play and then the others, and all works fine! I have not changed any setup in Play, so it’s rather confusing. Well, going on your instructions, I have just done the same with a new project. Right now, it could be any number of things. Now do you hear anything? If the latter works, but the former doesn’t then it must be something specific to Play and we can then narrow things down a little. If you still aren’t hearing anything, replace Play in the Instrument rack with another VSTi and change the output port for the MIDI channel so that it is assigned to the replacement VSTi. Any sound yet? Are the faders in the mixer up to 0 for both the Play VSTi and the Master bus? Is the Play VSTi fader assigned to the master bus? When you play your keyboard are you seeing any activity on either fader? Hopefully some of those things should help you find your answer. The input port should of course, be assigned to the MIDI port you are using for communication. Assign the Output port of the MIDI track to Play, and set the channel to 1. It will automatically be assigned to MIDI channel 0 if Play is working as it should, so set your instrument channel in Play to 1. Load Play into the Instrument rack and then go in and load one of the EWQLSO instruments. Make sure your keyboard is getting MIDI into the MIDI track you are using, and that no filtering or whatever has been set inadvertently. Have you by chance worked your way through the complete chain to check all your settings? Try it first with a new project containing one instance of Play. CPU – Measures the percentage of the computer’s processing power being used by Omnisphere.Basically, all the VSTi(s) connect the same way, so it appears there’s something not quite right with the way you’ve set up the Play VSTi.Recording Files to Save ~ Lists and lets you select the files your Flow Capture recordings will generate.Here, you can select the MIDI input you want to trigger Omnisphere. Active MIDI Inputs – Lists the active MIDI devices connected to your computer.Omnisphere’s Audio Buffer Size can be set from 32 to 1024 samples. Lower buffer settings have less latency, but tax your system resources to a greater extent (you might experience audio glitches or pops at lower buffer settings.) We recommend experimenting to find a good balance between latency and performance. Audio Buffer Size – Determines the amount of latency in the Omnisphere Standalone.Sample Rate – Omnisphere’s sample rate can be set to either 44.1k, 48k, 88.2k, 96k, 176.4k, or 192k.Active Output Channels – Determines which audio output on your interface is used by Omnisphere.This can be an internal speaker, an audio card, or a dedicated audio interface. Output Device – Determines which audio device is used by Omnisphere.Mac systems typically use CoreAudio and Windows systems typically use some variant of the ASIO drivers (we recommend ASIO4ALL). Audio Device Type – Sets which audio driver is used by Omnisphere.When you open the Settings window, it reflects your current settings and allows you to view and set your audio / MIDI preferences for the Omnisphere Standalone, as well as which Flow Capture files your recordings will generate.
