If you are experiencing issues with MIDI output not being sent to an external MIDI port (MIDI interface hardware), please check the following:
This is an alternative version of the previous tutorial, this time showing the global instrument setup with Propellerhead Reason.
This video shows how to setup sounds hosted in a DAW for use as HN2 global instruments. As a prerequisite, you need to setup a loopback MIDI driver first, as shown in the previous tutorial.
Learn how to setup a Loopback MIDI Driver for sending MIDI data from HN2 to other software running on your computer.
Hey all,
I am starting to make a LFO-Style Controller Data Library.
Here you will find Sinewaves in the most useful intensities and rate.
Just be aware that on fast cycles I have also added Sinewaves with more data
(labeled with HI at the end) becaus sometimes I need finer resolution
on high speed LFOs.
Synfires Gui doesnt handle that much data too well, so just use this for short fills
and turn loop mode off!! (Otherwise the GUI gets slow)
For example:
Synfire can't see Logic's internal instruments, as they are no AudioUnits. There's a workaround using the IAC MIDI Loopback driver.
Learn how to assign sounds to instruments in an arrangement quickly, by picking sound properties (ranges, category, custom controllers, articulations) from templates.
This issue has been reported for Cubase and EastWest PLAY system (EWQL). It may also occur with other plug-ins, sound libraries or DAWs.
When running PLAY inside one or more Drones in Cubase, you may experience hanging (dangling) notes. That is, notes continue to sustain after playback stopped. The issue does not occur in the Synfire Audio Engine. It does not seem to have anything to do with Synfire.
The first thing you probably want to do with Synfire is to get more phrases into it to work with. The quickest way to do this is to import them from MIDI files.
Under Windows, problems may occur if multiple programs attempt to use the same USB MIDI driver for input at the same time. Especially prone to this issue are “cheap” drivers that often accompany inexpensive MIDI hardware. If you wonder why Synfire is unable to receive MIDI input from your hardware keyboard, there is probably another program already using and blocking the USB driver.
