Hi. I’ve been a long time user of Cubase since Atari!! I have used the Arpache insert and also more recently the Beat designer and step designer. However, the one I’m having trouble using is the Micro Tuner. I’m following my usual process for inserting midi inserts but I cannot get Micro Tuner to make any difference to the tuning. I’ve made sure in the preferences that there’s no midi filtering going on. There doesn’t appear to be any output from the plugin? Any thoughts. Cheer s Jon
Hi,
Could you attach a screenshot, please?
Hi Martin. I’m out of the studio for a few days. I’m not sure what you want a screen shot of. Can you tell me so I don’t send a useless picture. Cheers. Jon.
The MIDI device (whether hardware or virtual) that you are sending the microtuning information to must be capable of reacting to it, i.e. it must be microtonality-ware. Most VSTis are not, but here is a list of those that are.
Hi. Thanks for the reply. I was wondering whether it was the vsti. I tried Pianoteq and vital which didn’t work. However, Vital is the free version and Pianoteq isn’t the pro version so maybe these are limited. I have all the Arturia synths you mentioned in the list so I’ll try them over the next few days. One thing I noticed is there is no output coming from the plug in. There is midi activity on the input but nothing on the output. With some of the others ie density, compression etc I can see midi activity in and out on the plug-in. Cheers. Jon.
Hi. I’ve tried the Arturia plugins and Equator by Roli (thinking it might be an MPE issue) and nothing works. I think it is something to do with the fact that there’s no midi activity showing up on the output of the plug in (micro tuner). When I play, the orange meter displays input activity but the green coloured output activity doesn’t show anything - but it does in the other plugins. I’ve tried setting the routing to ANY mid channel, specific midi channels and even specific midi input controllers - ie the Arturia Keylab, the Nektar P6, the Roli Seaboard, Maschine and Roli blocks. Nothing seems to work. Could this be a bug? Cheers Jon
Quick update. Some of the other midi plugins do work without any output activity showing - strange?? Jon
