Original Message 1/12 29-Oct-09 @ 02:10 PM - Need help real quick with VST
I have a problem with a VST instrument and I need this thing to work asap since the piece
has to be recorded before sunday afternoon for a funeral.
Basicaly I want to record the piano accompaniement to a song so people can sing along at
the service.
First off, I never use VST instruments, I have all the synths I need and they all respond well to
my different controllers.
So, when I load the piano vst in Cubase (VST/32 5) it plays fine when I depress keys with the
mouse, or if I create a part and paint in notes.
When I play on my controller keyboard (axiom 25) I see the midi activity in light up
accordingly.
I put the vst piano on midi track 1, set the output to the said piano. set the piano to receive on
any chanel, play the axiom, no sound nor activity on the vst piano.
I'm pretty sure it must be something super dumb that you guys do everyday, but I never use
VST instrument, so i'm a bit lost.
Thanks a lot in advance

sound library. Just loaded it in the ESI and it will be fine. I'm still curious as to why the vst won't work
'tho.
thanks again

Never used it.
The way I go is this: let Cubase (vst32 5) load then add vst instrument in the drop down menu (tools?), then in the track info on the left I set the output to the vst instrument set channel to any.
K, the axiom works flawlessly with all my hardware, never a problem with it (I don't use the usb, just the midi side of it)
The vsti is Balthor grand piano

correctly.

wasnt there some issue with too many midi drivers installed or something? cos windows could only handle a certain total of midi ports and some plugins would install their own midi port if they operate standalone... i think the max number of ports winblows could handle was 11 or summt daft; or was that all web-mythology?

the problem was. Oh well, another pc mystery ( I must admit my last install was over 4 years ago...)
Thanks for your help.
I did manage to do the track using my sampler so all is well anyway.
