      Hi

      I have used the previous CTRLR version quite abit around one year ago, and it was working quite Ok, but now i can’t make working the panels i try : I tried both in Live and Reaper, and when i turn a knob it does nothing :cry:
      I have tried the Blofeld and Shruthi CTRLR panels, but [i:7yv32tml]both don’t do anything, it seems it doesn’t send any Midi data to the hardware synth [/i:7yv32tml] <img decoding=:” title=”Question” />
      I have searched a bit around here for a PDF, a QuickStart manual, but found nothing : could anyone point me to such a document if it exists somewhere, or give me a hint on this topic to fix my problem ?

      Thank you in advance.

      (PS : also, it seems that CTRLR doesn’t remember my default path where i store my panels)

        try

        disable the midi device in reaper (in and out)
        restart reaper to be sure the devices are released
        reopen reaper
        open ctrlr setup the midi device
        open the panel , open in edit mode configure
        – midi thru , vst input , select same midi in and out device as in ctrlr
        close edit mode
        save panel
        close panel
        reopen panel (reopen ist necessary that reaper laod after next sart the right panel)

        add to the track
        a rearinsert to recieve any incoming audio from an selected asio or hw and adjust sample latenz for the spezific hw (also a the synth has some mini latenz)

        if working
        save track as tracktemplate

        than u just need to
        =>open tracktemplate
        and synth is setupt in the right way

        here its working fine <img decoding=” title=”Smile” />

        there a also a midi monitor in ctrlr to check in and out datas
        lg widy

          Thank you.
          My issue then will be that i have a bunch of synths connected to my Midi Out device, so if i disable it in Reaper, i will only be able to use the ones which have a CTRLR panel, right ?
          I don’t understand why i need a Reainsert, too, but anyway i need to try t ounderstand <img decoding=” title=”Wink” />
          Thanks again !

            hm

            1)
            my ESI have 4 in and 4 out midi devices .. i only disable e.g ESI 1 in and ESI 1 out in reaper
            the point is, most of the midi devices are single client based and can not shared between applications ..and ctrlr.dll cant seen as another application
            some midi interfaces are multiclinet ( e.g midisport ) but i didn’t try such a device yet, in this case maybe its also works without disabling devices

            2)
            u dont need the realinsert .. depends on your routing ..
            i use it to get the audio stream from the synth back in my daw
            Synth Audio -> ADAT-> Soundcard->ASIO->Reainsert->Track

              Thank you for your help.
              I think i will have to install a virtual midi driver if i don’t want to disable my midi hardware device.
