Good morning,

I connected my m audio keystation 61 mk3 master keyboard via midi (midi out) to the Blofeld (midi in) and I connected the Blofeld desktop via usb.

I have connected the keyboard and the Blofeld in different ways and nothing works.

In Live 11 the same, tried different configurations and impossible to connect the editor, nor to load the sounds and program banks.

Can you please tell me how I should connect and configure the Blofeld in the editor and in Live 11.

It seems more complicated than a desktop model.

I have a problem with the publisher Blofeld.

Error message.

Can you help me because I can't find the solution.

Also a problem, when saving a project in Live 11 Suite, when opening this project, there is no saving of the settings in Live.

When I put the settings back in Live, the Blofeld editor does not activate, although the same settings as when saving.

Attached is the error message

Thank you in advance for your response and help

I'm trying to get this going with the Novation Supernova using Reaper. I can connect and get it communicating but I don't think you can actually use it to audition sounds while running the editor, which is an unfortunate limitation. You have to turn off your midi ports in your DAW for it to work. I find it somewhat complicated.

Good Evening,
I'm scared to think what's behind that door just slightly open... I hope it's quiet and you can focus on creating ghostly Halloween tunes ;-)

btw I have Blofeld editor of sorts - would you like to try? ... almost free ..; )

Thank you for your answers.

Yes indeed, you have to disconnect the midi, but it still doesn't work.

Really painful.

I have the Virus ti2 editor from the same company.

Not always great, unstable (midi/live 11 configuration), but it works more or less well.

On the other hand, for the Blofeld desktop a real disaster.

An almost free editor?

I have two of their editors, they did work ok(-ish) when I was on Mac, but they have a lot of issues since I switched to Windows. They don't remember the settings correctly and they require exclusive control of the midi port (which I don't like much, to be honest). Maybe MacOs handles midi differently than Windows, maybe my setup has way too much midi devices/ports, but other sw editors work with way less problems.

I didn't bother reporting my issues to the dev, I just wrote them off my setup.


I have the microKorg editor (not required anymore, I can use use the official Korg virtual instrument as an editor... and also as a replacement inside any session, it makes things easier) and the NordLead/Rack 2x editor (which I'd still need for my Nord Rack 2x, which is not in the most comfortable position... I'll probably end up looking for a replacement, sooner or later).

Thank you for your answer.

There you go, problem solved.

Response from the editor, I would like to thank him for his kindness and for responding to me within a relatively reasonable time frame.

To be honest, not at all happy at first, it didn't work at all.

Afterwards, I waited for a response, but the situation was a bit complicated for the publisher, so I understood the reason for this wait.

All that to say, everything works now and perfectly.

It was just a problem with configuration and settings, particularly for the Blofeld.

This is my second editor purchased from Aura Plugins and now I am very happy with it.

I had a problem with the Virus Ti 2, but also resolved, settings.

So, excellent product but needs to be configured correctly.
