Kontakt, Liquid Rhythm and Reaper problem

Having a bit of a problem getting these working together. Putting Liquid Rhythm on the first track which is routed to second track to send midi to, which is a midi track. Second track then sends midi to Kontakt which is on a third track. Liquid Rhythm does not seem to be triggering Kontakt. If I put an Instrument in Komplete Kontrol instead of Kontakt with this set up it gets triggered. If I put a Reaper sequencer instead of Liquid Rhythm, or just add midi notes in to the piano roll and have Kontakt on the third track again, it gets triggered. Any idea why I can not trigger Kontakt with Liquid Rhythm. This is my first time using Kontakt as I have just brought Wave Alchemy Revolution and am looking to use this with Liquid Rhythm.

Not sure why are you using multiple tracks at all? Did you try just loading LR before Kontakt in the FX chain, on the same track?

Yup same problem. Just using a separate a track as it will automatically give me the choice of audio outputs when opening Kontakt doing it that way. If not would have to do add audio tracks and route afterwards.

I would use a single track too, unless you need to record the output from LR.
Check the MIDI channel of the output from LR and the MIDI channel set for the instrument loaded in Kontakt. Reaper has a built-in "MIDI-logger", or try this:

Used the midi logger after LR and i am getting C2 note on off which should be trigging the Kick in Revaluation. I can record midi coming out of LR onto piano roll, but it will not trigger instruments in Konakt. If I delete them and then draw them in it will trigger them. This is driving me mad just does not make seance. Any suggestions?

Are you sure that the instrument you're triggering in Kontakt has something mapped to C2? Kontakt uses C3 as middle C, while other plugins might not use that designation, but C4 instead. So, kick would usually be C1 in Kontakt, following the General MIDI standard.

If I use midi baby I have to send out on C2 and it triggers, also same with virtual keyboard starts with C2 for Kick. Also if I put a Piano into Kontalt and send lots of midi notes out of LR nothing will trigger, but will trigger any synth put into Komplete Kontrol with no problem.

Here is picture showing that the midi info is coming out of track one, into and out of track two and then into track three. I have just set it up as three tracks to show how the midi is flowing. Have contacted WaveDNA, but they have not got back to me.

Can I also add to this; As said the note recorded into piano roll from LR will not trigger instruments in Kontakt unless I delete them and draw them in myself, but the recorded midi notes from LR will trigger any other synth or drum machine.captaink wrote:I can record midi coming out of LR onto piano roll, but it will not trigger instruments in Konakt.

I asked WaveDna about the state of LM development, via Facebook Messenger, and they replied a couple of days ago announcing news within the next 15 days or earlier...captaink wrote:Have contacted WaveDNA, but they have not got back to me.

Maybe they will get back to me if I contact them through Facebook as there web support seems nonexistent which is not very helpfulChinablu wrote:I asked WaveDna about the state of LM development, via Facebook Messenger, and they replied a couple of days ago announcing news within the next 15 days or earlier...captaink wrote:Have contacted WaveDNA, but they have not got back to me.

I see that the Notes are on MIDI channel 10 but I cannot work out what those other events (On MIDI Channel 01) are (picture is blurry). Are they SysEx events?
Can you Export the MIDI from Reaper MIDI Editor, ZIP it up and attach it to a reply here?
