Sometimes my Analog Keys sounds bad when I connect it to my OctaTrack via MIDI.
I have a MIDI cable from the out of the OT to the MIDI in of the AK, so the OT is sending Midi Program Changes to the AK.
Some presets sound bad, like if they have an LFO applied to the volume or something like that. If I press reload kit, then it sounds ok.
Tonight I have a gig, and I am a bit worried.
Is this a bug?
are you transmitting midi data that changes the sound parameters?
What clunky says:
2 possible solutions to your problem:
option1: Make sure you dont use overlapping midi-channels. (if you use 1 to 9 for your octatrack, use 10 to 15 for your ak (i think the ak wants 5 midichannels)
option2: (the one i use in my setup) make sure the octatrack doesnt send/need midi for itself… Dissable audio-CC in the setup of your octatrack. AND dissable its need for midichannels for the audio-tracks. If i didnt dissable audio-CC , my octrack made my monomachine do funny stuff… and if i didnt dissable the midichannels for the audiotracks on the octatrack, i couldnt get midi-learn to work…
Because of your upcomming gig, and you probably dont want to test stuff out.
you are likely to be quicker by choosing option 2. except, if you use a midicontroller for your octatrack… then you definatly need the octatrack to listen for midi.
Thanks both for the help!!!
I did option 1 and option 2 and now is OK!!
Thanks again.
