Hi,
Not sure where to go to get tech help but I installed Rem Control VST3 last night but it doesn't show up in my plugin folders. I also installed Connector and Re-head with no dramas. It's in my VST3 folder.
Uninstall/Reinstall doesn't change anything.
It's not on the Cubase dreaded blocklist. Kinda running out of things to try!
I'm hoping it's something dumb that I've missed!

I'm using Cubase 11 pro on Windows 10. 16GB Ram plenty of hard disk space (670GB free), older i7 2.6mHz processor. But no probs running bigger plugins like Diva etc so shouldn't be a system drama. :help: :help: :help:

That's odd, there should not be any difference with others. Since Remote Control is focused on MIDI though, I am not sure the VST3 version is the right choice for Cubase. The VST2 version is more likely to work flawlessly with MIDI output.

Still waiting for some help here, I'm just a musician... can you tell me what's wrong with this?
Ok, tried this on "text_value.inc" but didn't work:

Code: Select all

<DUMMY>
	<TEMPLATE id="TPL_PARAM_TEXT_BUTTON">
		<PARAM_TEXT param_id="$param_id$" width="$width$" height="$height$">
			<CUS_INVISIBLE_BUTTON param_id="$param_id$" cursor="system::hand"/>

			<!-- Range 0-127 -->
			<PARAM id="$param_id$$_127" min="0" max="127" value_format=".0"/>
			<PARAM_LINK from="$param_id$" to="$param_id$$_127" normalized="true" />
			<PARAM_TO_STRING_LINK from="$param_id$$_127" to="$param_id$" content=": {text_value}"/>

		</PARAM_TEXT>
	</TEMPLATE>
	<!-- define -->
	<DEFINE>
		<CUS_PARAM_TEXT_BUTTON base_type="TPL_PARAM_TEXT_BUTTON"/>
	</DEFINE>
</DUMMY>
Cheers.

Yeah, I too would love to see an easier way to have Remote Control show 7-bit MIDI values (0-127) instead of percentages (which IMO for MIDI is just a silly idea: we want to see the actual value at a glance most often and we're very used to these 7-bit numbers by now--MIDI's been around for over 40 years now).

@bluecataudio - could you work on this (just add a toggle switch, please) and also make sure the settings windows are rendered correctly with Cubase's scaling settings? Because they're not currently. Also, the settings window takes a really long time to open, which is rather annoying.

FYI a new preview is now available.

Cubase's own scaling on Windows is still an issue (it looks like they are messing with system settings behind the scenes), however the settings windows should be much faster to load and use (they can now be resized, and parameters are spread across multiple tabs).

It also now supports multiple MIDI control types in addition to MIDI CC (NRPN, 14-bit CC, Pitch Bend, Aftertouch etc...). [0-127] ranges for controls do not make much sense anymore, unless you are only using control types that are limited to this range (CC or Notes).
