no, subfolders is fine, i do that, too. (by vendors.)

in a week or so i will ask you to open a few test files, because locally it is difficult to always unmount volumes to remove paths from the system.

All right. thank you for your interest and your work.

The Midi Suite: 127-Control, PocketFader and XY-Control

Midi Plug-ins which sends Continuous Controllers to VST Plug-ins or physical Outs.

(127-Control does not remember its settings, this is intented.)

BlackAndWhite

a MIDI Keyboard with 127 keys and up, down, or fixed Velocity Mode.

[teroyk]

the format is pluggo, which means that they require the free runtime from cycling74.

Is free runtime still available from cycling74 for MacOS9?

[IIO]

the html elfs removed the OS9 version 2 years ago. somehow they must just think the OS would be dead.^^

Here I am! downloaded your "beautiful" midi controllers.. unfortunately I didn't understand how to use them.. they are seen as "effects" and not "instruments".. I can't address any midi message with anything.. what should I do? ( Excuse my ignorance..

[IIO]

yes that´s correct beeing an effect.

plug-ins which can send MIDI always send the MIDI to the MIDI track which is currently selected (in cubase or nuendo), and if you plan to adress more than one MIDI channel, that MIDI track has to be an "Any" Track.

so you use them basically like you would use a hardware controller, with the difference that there is only one port available.

btw, while the other ones should load instantly, the keyboard is slow loading by design, because of the way i built the keybord GUI (such seemingly simple tasks are really complicated in max. in OSX the situation (with loading 100 identical files or resources) is better)

I can only thank you for sharing these digital tools, my congratulations for being able to give Mac Os9 a little more variety in music production with these everything makes more sense.

Thank you very much for the work and for sharing.

the controller plugins are beautiful, too bad I haven't been able to use them yet.. I thought you could control both the VSTIs and external hardware via midi.. nothing, I haven't been able to do anything yet.. I put them as inserts on the track but they don't send any midi messages or control.. could you explain to me, step by step, as if I were a child, how to use them? (maybe the guide will be useful to others too...) thanks

i will be glad to help, but i dont really know where to start.

allow me to ask back first:

 - what happens if you try to recreate what is shown in the picture above?
 
 - can you modulate a PPG knob from a hardware controller?
 
 
the midi routing and VST2 itself, as well as cubase, nuendo and protools, are in fact highly idiosycratic systems and the opposite of linear and obvious.

pluggo is VST 2.0. this means that they can only send midi from effects, but not receive.

sending midi from effects is ultra rare anyway, which is why your question is totally justified.

the only plug-in i could name by heart which can do this beside pluggos is TC filtrator - which sends controller #1 (modwheel) to the host when its LFO is turned on. (or when you patch instruments to show up as effects)

as for cubase, which is admittedly the only host i tested this stuff in, any midi coming from plug-ins goes to the mysterious "cubase" midi port, which has to be routed by track selection as seen in the image above.

it might be that you have to turn this on somewhere in cubase, but i am not aware of this atm.

I want a christmas plug!

[IIO]

sorry, i noticed that i am behind. wanted to switch to a three months rythm but miscounted.^^ now it will be 2024.

[Protools5LEGuy]

I really miss this, even when I only run TDM

[IIO]

i´ll be back, including the past months.
