Quick MKey poll/rfc...

[Mr. Tingle]

If you could make the key map editor available from the MKEY vst GUI that would be cool.

[Mr. Tingle]

In fact, why don't you make the GUI for MKEY be the key map editor?

Oh, and if it could remember which key map you were using last, that would be a bonus (I seem to remember having to reload the correct key map each time I loaded an MKEY. Eventually I just made the default one in the main directory how I like MKEY set up).

does it work if you remove thalamus?

I'm trying to work out why some people (myself included) don't need thalamus, and some people need to.

I can play without Thalamus, but I cannot record unless Thalamus is there.

I've gone back and given this a try and I have found that I don't need Thalamus to record.

I have it set up as follows...

I have put Mkey on track 1. Output for track 1 is set to midi yoke.

I set the input on track 2 to midi yoke and pop in a VSTi (tried Crystal and EVM Grand Piano and both worked).

Hit record and started typing away and it recorded just fine.

Hmmm....I'll have to give that a go.

I originally intended for the MKey client to be as lightweight and low memory as possible. Delphi components can be a little memory hungry as a lot of stuff can get compiled in that is not needed.

I could rewrite it in JUCE, which should produce a lower overhead. In which case the key editor could be made part of the main UI, and I could add a bunch of other tools too.

Just now got a chance to try this, and it works perfectly. Not sure why I didn't think of sending one track's output to MidiYoke, but I didn't (I already had MidiYoke installed, so no bother there).

Would like to not have to do this, but for Mkey's features, it's not too much of a pain.
