For whatever reason, whenever I use the "play" function on FL, Kontakt 2 volume controls are all reset. It's very strange, and irritating. Other VSTs are mysteriously affected as well - for instance, impOSCar's "Glide" time gets increased for no reason, Reaktor's "Junatik" ensemble has its mod envelope disappear, etc.

some kind of err... virus?

sorry, i can't help, no problem here.

yes, that's true. I asked the official forum about it some months ago, cos I own Reaktor and that happens to me in some ensembles (junatik, carbon). They said it's a problem that may be solved but there's a way to solve it. Locate the parameters that are reset and "erase" their midi message (don't know how to say this, sorry). i mean, for example the mod envelope in junatik refer to specific midi messages. erase them. you won't be able to automate these parameters but at least they won't reset when playing FL.

While testing J&H Detunator in FL demo, it was found out that FL resets certain controllers...

Might be that the setting under under Audio settings named 'Reset plugins on transport' has something to do with it.

Also, if I recall it correctly, someone mentioned in that Detunator thread which controllers FL resets. Use the search and look for Detunator and you'll hopefully find that thread.

I used 'reset plugins on transport' and it actually worked with reaktor. HOWEVER, when I close the project and open it again, the problem persists and I have to select 'reset plugins on transport' again.

use a midi out and make a preset (check the dropdown list though becuase ther might be one, there's also the preset forum at FL) and then just select initial the song with this setting for the controllers it's resetting. Note you may have to use the last parameter tweaked to control the parameter on you pluggin..Yes it is a common problem and that imo is the easiest work around...;)

Just uncheck "Send pitchbend range" in the wrappers.

Post

Seriously. Pitchbend range is sent via a certain NRPN message which some plugins misunderstand as a reset message. Turning it off will solve the problem.

Post

No, it won't. At least in my case, when I open the project again the problem persists.
