MSF – Kick Factory doesn't make any sound

[padillac]

Hi, in MSF 13.01, all of the devices make sound except for the Kick Factory. How do I get this device to make sound?

I've tried it in Renoise and Reaper.

Hmmm…working fine here right out of the box, in 13.02. Didn't try it in 13.01.

Please install the 13.02 now. If it won't help, let me know your exact specs via info@meldaproduction.com

Okay I figured something out. It works fine with the single out plugin version. With the 6-out plugin, the sound is routed to output #2. So perhaps that device ought to be changed to send to output 1 instead.

Is it possible for the FX lanes to be routed to specific outputs? Or is it always FX lanes 1-6 route to outputs 1-6?

edit: this is using 13.02 btw

Aaaaaha, thanks for the info!

[padillac]

fwiw my preference would be to be able to route lanes independently (I don’t know if that’s possible or not, I didn’t see anything in the manual about output routing), and have patches be set to route everything out the main outs by default.

Multi-output routing for me enables mixing workflow - e.g. a sub bass layer routed separately from the main layer. But I’ll start with it in the main out, and then only route the sub to a different output when it’s time to mix.

And sure you can do that. The problem with Kick factory here was that the first output wasn't really used, so it seemed silent if you didn't attach the remaining outputs.

oh thank you man! I had the same problem

I'm having an issue getting Kick Factory making any sounds when placed in MXXX. Is that to be expected? Other sound factory presets seem to be working fine in MXXX (although I haven't checked many). Was just curious about this one in particular.

I'm using the latest beta (13.03a)

I take a look into that in the morning and let you know. Are you using 6out version or 1out?

[vectorwarrior]

1out I believe, just the standard one in MXXX. Thanks, looking forward to trying out this device!

In MSF, the Kick Factory device loads plug-ins into the FX section; nothing is loaded into the Generator section. The plug-ins in the FX section start with a SoundFactory on Inputs 1, 2 and 3, mixed into lane 1.

In MSF loaded into MXXX, the Kick Factory device loads plug-ins into the FX section; nothing is loaded into the Generator section. The plug-ins in the FX section start with the Mixer; the 3 SoundFactory plug-ins are not loaded.

It looks like SoundFactory is not an available plug-in within SoundFactory within MXXX.

Both MSF and Kick Factory are working fine here within MXXX, inside MSF:





I did have to enable MIDI input for MXXX; it seems not to be on by default:

[DarkStar]

Agreed, but I understood that vectorwarrior was asking about MSF (with Kick Factory) in MXXX:

[jmg8]

Well spotted guys, thanks.
I will get this one to Vojtech.
I'm not sure yet if it will be a problem with other MSF in MSF in MXXX, I will do some tests.
