This is probably not the wisest thing to do - but I'm trying to make use of existing gear rather than forking out for new. I have .... an emagic a 6/2 usb external soundcard which has coaxial S/PDIF in/ out connectors. a Macbook and imac which both have mini 3.5 mm S/PDIF Toslink sockets I want to r...

... ahhh I remember now. There seem to be issues with mlan and Yamaha shying away from it - might explain the price drop.

I remember being excited when they first came out - you seemed to get a lot for your money. Price is down to £650.00 now -

- any thoughts ?

sound quality , DSP , Mackie emulation ?

Thanks - but I've tried that. It works with other ensembles - just not with Vierring. Rebuilding gives you the parameters with id no's - P0001, p0002, p0003 ... and then it jumps to P0231, P0232 etc. Where are the missing parameters ? It seems very strange - because you can use midi learn to assign ...

Hey - this is good . Thanks again.

I sussed it - the cross fader needs to be assigned to CC16

Thanks ... I'm just trying it now. The cross fader does not do anything at the moment - i.e it does not select the button group . Do you have any suggestions ?

Also -should there be any visual feedback in the automap window of parameter names ?

Some controls appear in the list in automap - but their id numbers start from P0228 and upwards ( in other ensembles the list always starts from P0001 ) If I want to assign the four Level controls, for example ( P0088, 0089, 0090, 0091 ) - these don't appear in the drop down list in automap - so I'm...

Managed to make a little progress with Vierring - have assigned a couple of rotary controls - but the Nocturn is not behaving as it has for all other ensembles. The automap universal window still says that the 'control is not assigned' - even though it is controlling Vierring on screen . There is al...

Thanks ... I'll give that a go

I've been having some fun with the Nocturn ... but have had some issues with some Reaktor ensembles. The most useful way to programme the Nocturn with Reaktor seems to be the ID numbers - P0149 etc for each control. However - with some ensembles e.g. Vierring - selecting the id number from the list ...

Any recommendations for a decent monitor to hook up to a 20 inch imac ? Criteria ....

Just want to say a big thanks to everyone who kept the faith over the past decades and put in a lot of hard work to make this possible. Some people have had to put up with a lot of shit !

OK ... a bit of context ( it's super sensitive ) I might have had a couple of bottles of 'Old Rosie Cloudy Scrumpy' 7.3% proof ... and then I went and checked out Omnisphere at the Specrasonics site ... and then ... omg ...
