When I create a VSL Instrument track, I get a box with a lot of Dummy(s) for example Dummy 1-127, Dummy 2- 127 etc.
What are these and how do I assign an instrument to the track?
And, when I create a VSL Ensemble in the VST Instruments list, I can only assign 8 MIDI tracks to each instance. Am I doing something wrong or missing something?
With the VSL Ensemble, I enable only one of the outputs. However, I found the issue with with the Ensemble. Cubase allows me to connect the MIDI instruments to 8 MIDI ports per Ensemble. When I went to assign a MIDI track, I thought that I was looking at “8 MIDI Tracks” versus “8 MIDI Ports”. So the Ensemble side of my question has been clarified. Thank you, CS.
PS. I only use one of the potential stereo outputs as I have instruments of the same type (i.e. Woodwinds) in a single ensemble. When I looked into the VST Instruments, I see that I could possible have each instrument on a separate bus which is very, very helpful at mix time. Again, Thanks, CS.
