Mod Wheel Issues with Diva and Pro Tools

[PLATONICA]

Hi all,

I'm having an issue with Diva (latest version) in Pro Tools 12.5.2 where my mod wheel automation (MIDI CC 1) has gone wonky in every instance of Diva across a couple of sessions. I'm not sure how to describe it — it's as if the if the baseline settings for the filters, etc. that the mod wheel is controlling have changed, so nothing sounds as it did when I initially programmed my tracks. Filters are too open so everything is too bright, or fully closed so I don't hear anything. I haven't changed anything on my system since I worked on these tracks a few days ago.

The workaround seems to be to determine what the mod wheel is affecting in each patch and automate using host automation rather than MIDI CCs. However I'd put a lot of work into some of this stuff and would like to understand what's going on, so I can either fix it or avoid this problem in the future. My MIDI controller is an old-ish M-Audio Keystation 61, could that be the problem? Perhaps it's a Pro Tools issue?

Any advice would be really appreciated.

Pro Tools 12.5.2 (Non-HD)
M-Audio Keystation 61 MIDI Controller

If I were you the first thing I'd check is whether there are some accidental "MIDI Learns"... go into Diva's configuration page and open the list (see Diva user guide, page 37). Hope that helps!

Thanks Howard, I think that was the culprit. I cleared the assignments in the MIDI table and things are sounding right again.
