Hello! Following our email exchange. I am currently seeing an issue with Virsyn Tera in multitimbral mode.

When assigning automation to various midi channels, it gets overriden whenever I change the focus between channels sections inside Virsyn Tera. It's like there can only be one automation going at the same time and it's assigned to whichever channel I am focusing on.

Per your example, I have tried to use the event monitor and have setup a very basic 2 track setup both on midi channel 1 and 2.

The event editor is not showing any data for anything in channel 2 unfortunately.

The midi notes for channel 2 are being passed through to Virsyn but there is nothing in event monitor for channel 2, only channel 1.

I am not sure how to consider this issue since automation will work only on one channel (which has the focus) and that the event monitor is not showing information other than channel one.

Please let me know if you need anything from me would be happy to provide.

Thanks!

Here is my example by assigning two different channels/tracks to basic synth.

The two tracks are indeed working and sending notes but the events are not showing/passing...only channel 1 (which is muted and the feed interrupted). You can see the notes being struck by the volume indicator.

Thanks

Pls post your basic test project as a zip attachement here.

Here is my basic 2 channel project where the event monitor does not show ch2.

Thanks a lot

Where is it?

Here it is in .rar format as KVR would not accept .muproject for some reason. Thanks!!

Your second track (the one on chan 2) is directly targetting the synth and thus does not pass thru the event recorder. If that 2nd track would target that rack you would see the events of track 2 in the event monitor.

OK I can now see the difference between sending automation to a rack vs an actual synth.
Your email examples were I believe "controls" sent to the synth rack where I was doing "parameters".

With Virsyn I want automation "parameter" which has to go to the synth directly (the rack won't work) and will not be shown in the event viewer.

In any case, parameter automation works with a demo of Lush-101 (great synth!) in multitimbral mode. It has a special paremeter tab where you can direct to various channels.

I now conclude that Virsyn Tera cannot interpret parameter automation on different channels. It will be sent to any channel that the GUI is focused on for some odd reason.

Tera does recongnize "control" automation on different channels which is what I will try to use now for example automating mod wheel and then via the mod matrix. It is not ideal but it will have to do.

I wonder if there is use for Midi learn in this case or if there are other suggestions?

I also just notice there is a midi channel menu option I will try to experiment maybe this will work?

Thanks!!
