Black Magic Drum Machine Beta testing finished

Yep fantastic if you want to

To get dry just switch FX off and Compressor Off as well I can't remember offhand if the FX actually does the Compressor too, maybe it should if not...

no reference to BM in the log...that's very strange. I do a lot of try and just one time , I was able to load 2 instances . I will try again later. anyway it works perfectly with a second plug named "black magic 2".dll

thanks for reading my suggestion , I believe it's could be important for some people.

Damien it sounds like it is a dual core style SE bug if the renaming works, strange it only happens in live though... Be intersting if other Live users could try that out to see if its a general problem.

I just listened to the tracks you sent, very nice triphop vibe! Can I put any of them up on the hgs jukebox?

take care

I can load multiple instance of BM in Live 8 without renaming anything... I haven't tried again in Live 7.

Ok thanks

good news if it works with live. I suppose I comes from my computer... that's very strange , as I can load 2 instances with reaper and energy xt.

no problem for the tracks andy ! as I told you , it's just home record , and I'm not sure that it "sounds" good without mix. I will record them in the next month with more details.
as you know I'm a pianist and if you're interested, I will record some piano with your instruments during my next hollidays.

Well there are always unexplainable problems like this, worst part of the job to be honest, very hard to fix something which isn't generic unfortunately... Let's see if anyone else reports it, in the meantime I guess you are ok renaming?

Does this happen with the Piano or SoundScaper in live?

Definitely - that would be great! I tell you what, I'll let you send me the tracks when you are happy with them shall I? They are sounding good from here

I will try 2 instance with piano and soundscaper with live.
no problem for the music, I will send it next week.
I 'm playing tonight with black magic: what a surprising instrument ! it's really different from the other drums vsti. and really give a new way to drums. it's a real pleasure to use.

Okay I'll see what I can do.

My only major bugs of this evening occurs in EXT 2. I think they're both a problem within EXT2 because its can be really buggy on my system.

Probably best to wait for someone to confirm this but if I set my soundcard to 96k then the samples are playing back at twice the speed even if I refresh the files, doesn't happen in anything else but have only tried in Orion & FL Studio so far.

Also at 44K going above 144 bpm causes the channels to not play unless until I change the sample rate.

More than likely an EXT2 bug with my ASIO driver but mentioning just in case...

I know that changing the sample rate can cause problems for the sample system if at least one is loaded into memory, so probably if you change to 96 then save the project, close down the host and re-open it will be ok, can you check that? I have no control over the sample system as it's 3rd party so we have to live with it that way....

Maybe the 2nd problem is also related to the above?

thanks for the report!

[Az're-ul]

I'll check that tomorrow Andy and let you know but that was the only major thing I found in 2 hours of playing, sorry I meant testing

[Astralp]

hehe, that is ggggrrrrreat

Quick update just to confirm that restarting EXT2 or even just reloading project solves the sample rate problem and also to let you know that the compressor works independently of the fx switch.

Just to confirm something, record only works properly when the internal sequencer is running otherwise it creates empty wav files?

Also the filename timestamp is an hour out on my pc showing as 11:02 rather 12:02.

Record volume knob appears to behave strangely, seems like it starts at somewhere between a quarter to a half of the LED scale and then tops out. I was trying to seriously redline it and couldn't.

Behaviour for increasing numbers of bars seems the wrong way round to me, pressing the up switch lowers the number of bars but I get that with lots of VSTI's

Something for someone else to confirm, altering the filter cascade setting can cause a massive CPU spike in EXT2 & Live 6 and disables the host's sound but is fine in EXT1 Could be my ASIO driver of course.
