4OSC and MPE

[Watchful]

Using 4OSC on a Roli Seaboard Rise 49 on Waveform 10.

Patches are not natively MPE, which is fine.

When selecting MPE from the upper left menu, all sound cuts out.

I cycled through sounds to see if some were this way while others not, but no matter what I selected, the entire patch was silent.

Turning off MPE produced sound again, but the patch obviously didn't respond to MPE commands. The input monitor shows that Waveform is receiving MPE data...it's just stopping at 4OSC.

Am I missing something?

It should just work. I'm testing with Seaboard Block and it's working. Are you macOS or Windows?

Could you create a simple edit and send it to me at roland@tracktion.com and I'll see what's up.

It's not MIDI playback issue... it happened playing live via the RISE. It's almost as if 4OSC ignores any MPE data.

I'll try recording some MIDI data, but I suspect that will record just fine...it's the playback that's totally silent.

My thought was the recorded midi wouldn't play back as well. Then I could compare how the RISE MPE differs rom the block MPE. When MPE is enabled, 4OSC sets up one lower zone on al channels.

I'll send you a couple of riffs recorded hot off the Seabord and get it to you; I suspect if you have it working on the BLOCK, it'll sound just fine.

The story gets stranger.

In an attempt to get you the edit file, I launched Waveform 10 per usual... and MPE is out of control today. I can play a single note fine, but playing multiple results in the notes struggling to map to the keywaves. They're basically ricocheting up and down the board. This is in Equator loaded as a VST.

Launching the standalone editor for Equator (quitting out of Waveform), and the Seaboard is working just fine, totally as expected.

Quit out of Equator, relaunch Waveform, select Equator as the VST and the problem instantly returns.

Making things stranger, I can now use 4OSC with MPE enabled. I *do* get sound, but 4OSC is acting exactly the way Equator was: notes crisscrossing each other, warbling to find the right key, etc.

No settings were changed, so this is quite inconsistent. I'm going to wait a day or two and see if the problem reverses itself to the original.

Problem recurs with a full system restart, cable reconnections, etc. So it seems limited to Waveform, and was not doing this yesterday.

(Forgot to mention... Windows 10, Waveform 10.0.34.)

Having trouble reproducing the problem. Tonight, 4OSC is working. However, Waveform is having issues tracking the MPE. It's still warbling--like it's having trouble figuring out the note I'm on--but quite a lot better. And that's happening on 4OSC as well as Equator. I'll keep watching this.
