Hello.
I tried to create my own key switches and ran into a problem - the switches actualy do not change the expression and are recorded as normal notes.
Here is my setup:
- Windows 8.1
- Cubase 7 full version
- M-Audio Keystation 61 es as the MIDI input (connected via USB)
- Miroslav Philharmonik CE (where I’d like to configure the expression mapping)
Here is what I have done:
- created a new project, one instrument track with connection to MP
- configured MP to have violino tutti arco in the 1st MIDI channel, staccato on the 2nd, pizzicato on the 3rd and tremollo on the 4th MIDI channel
- created a new expression map and configured 4 Sound slots accordingly
- used the Set Remote Keys button to assign white keys for these slots - starting C-1
When I record a MIDI sequence and set the expression manually it works perfectly (this is why I have bought the Cubase full version actually 
). However I thought, when I setup the Remote Keys for these slots, during recording the C-1 key and the three others will not be recorded, but instead of an actual key, the slot (and therefore the expression) will be changed. At least this is how I understand the behaviour according to the docs…
So when I record a MIDI sequence and push the E-1 key to get a pizzicato for my violin, it does not change and it records the E-1 key in the score…
I’d say I’m missing one configuration step in my setup - could anyone let me know, where my problem with configuration is? I checked the forum and I didn’t find a regarded topic…
I can create a video with explanation if necessary…
Thanks a lot!
