Hello. New to VST Live and considering a move from Camelot Pro. So far so good except that I would like to see the layers with my external synths appear as a separate strip in the mixer.
I typically have two layers with external synths plus additional VSTs. Each VST automatically gets its own channel strip but the external synths do not. I expect it’s something to do with routing (or just me) but would appreciate any help. Thanks.
Hi! You mean external (physical) synths from e.g. MIDI tracks via cable?
It’s hard to understand your setup and the need.
What do you mean with “two layers with external synths”?
Anything that produces sound in VST Live has its own strip in the Mixer. Even a metronome.
Create a Global Stack and connect it to an input that you set up in Connections. It’ll then have a fader in the mixer. You can also set up a Stack in each Song or a mixture of both.
If your saying that you have more than one output from your synth you’ll need a stack for each one.
If your problem is MIDI volume then set up a MIDI track (doesn’t have to have anything recorded on it) and it’ll get a slider in the Song sub mix.
Exactly. I have a Nord Electro 5 and a Roland RD88 cabled in via USB. The Roland is also used as the audio interface. Thanks.
check your “Connections” / MIDI if all the “OUT” ports (to your external synths) are corect
