I was was in deep thought as I was watching the Uniwire videos and the question came to me. How to drag midi from a vst like Stylus rmx through uniwire to host sequencer like pro tools? Ive used stylus and sometime i mangle the patterns with chaos then drag and drop it in a instrument track in pro tools. I am currently doing the research of receptor before I buy it so I am trying to make sure that I would be able to use my plug ins the same way I would normally. That would go for samples too. May be some audio recorded in Pro tools that could be dragged or copied through Uniwire straight to lets say Kontakt for further exploration and manipulation.

Hi Trinibad,
I don't believe you can do what you are thinking about (eg. drag/n/drop Midi patterns from RMX on Receptor to your DAW host). The best that you can hope for is to save a pattern from RMX to somewhere on the Receptor disk, then copy the MIDI file from the Receptor HD to your DAW host.
This is not very complicated to do - it's just not as integrated as you would like the environments to be.
Probably - the best way to think of Uniwire is as if they were a set of audio cables to/from your Receptor (to the Daw), accompanied by a viewer window that shows up on your DAW that mirrors the display on the Receptor. That window (Receptor viewer) will let you manipulate the interface on the Receptor device, but it doesn't play well with the OS on your DAW for things like drag and drop. It is simply a mirror of the Receptor's display.
That said, it isn't difficult to mount the Receptor HD on your DAW's file system, and copy files through the regular OS interface.
Hope this helps, Regards,
Kevin L

I have Stylus RMX installed on my Mac as well. So I create an instrument strip with that instantiated & drag the desired midi file over to the instrument strip with the uniwire plugin. That's probably easier than trying to copy to the receptor drive & over to the puter drive.

(dtmprod) That sounds really efficient. What DAW were you using? Is it possible to make a short video on how you did it. Did you drag the midi file from stylus on the receptor uniwire to an instrument track on your DAW? Have you ever tried audio from you DAW to a sampler vst on receptor's uniwire? Thanks for your input.
