Insert Piz Here

First of all, I have to say that these plugins are excellent! Some very handy things here, Piz.

Second, does anyone know if it's possible to use several of these plugs on a single track in Ableton Live? I've tried nesting MIDI instrument racks etc but I just can't seem to find a way to use multiple plugs on a single track. I want to use several of the MIDIconverter2 plugs to remap breath control (CC02) to a few different CC's (CC07, CC11 & a couple of others) for one of my softsynths.

Another option is to ask if it's possible for Piz to code a version of the MIDIconverter2 plugin that can remap a single CC input to multiple CC outputs (with an option to Thru the original input in addition to the outputs.) Is this a possibility, Piz? Your plugs are so easy to use, yet very comprehensive with the numerous conversion options.

Oh, and I'm using OSX Leopard 10.5.6 on a MacBook Pro.

Thanks heaps in advance
Gary

the only way i know of on a mac would be to use Bidule to hold all the midi effects.

however, if you only need to map one CC to several without any other processing, i'm updating midi16CCRouter now so it can do that.

Thanks heaps Piz! It would've been nice to have some of the processing from MIDIconverter2, but I can live without that.

You're a genius, dude.

Hello, I just want to notify a bug in MidiConverter2, I can't convert a note off (and maybe anything else) into polypressure (polyphonic aftertouch), it gives me a pitch bend instead.
Thanks for this great work, it's very usefull.

thanks, it looks like it's only with "noteoff #" to poly aftertouch... also, this has been fixed in midiConverter3. i meant to do a "final" version of midiConverter2, but now i'm not sure if i kept a copy of it before changing it to 3.

ok, i just uploaded a new collection (except the linux version, hopefully soon). it includes the updated midi16CCRouter as well as midiConverter3, among other things.

Nice! Thanks piz.

Piz, is anyone of this plug-in can fix the length of a midi note (for exemple to 0,004s)? I've read the doc of all of them but I haven't found anything like this. I'll try to use the Exact delay, and convert the note on into note of, but if there's a dedicated plug-in, it shall be better.
Thank's a lot

I know it's a Cubase thing, so this isn't the best forum for it, but Cubase sees your plugins as VSTis for some reason, meaning that I can't load them as a MIDI insert.

You don't happen to know if I could patch them to make Cubase see them as MIDI Inserts (not VSTi or VST audio FX)?

Thanks for any pointers.

it would be possible to port them to whatever format cubase uses for its MIDI inserts ("VST Module Architecture" i think). i may or may not try it someday, but if anyone else wants to, i would provide the source code.

That's a very kind offer, I might take you up on it if I find out it's not a major operation.

any plans for a chord plugin?

something a bit like the XT1 chord comp but with some randomness on triggering, & strum?
