I've created an instance of Garritan Aria and added 5 MIDI tracks, each assigned to a different Aria channel. There's no problem playing the separate sounds assigned to each channel but when I try to automate channel volume control for a particular track in arrangement view, the only option I get is speaker on/off. There are no other automation options. If I open the midi editor for the track, I can add CC7 envelope info, but shouldn't I be able to add it at the track level like you can with audio?
Also, Aria doesn't respond to velocity information. All notes are played at the same velocity regardless of what's sent from Live.
I'm using Live Suite 9.6.1 on a Mac under Yosemite.
Aria instrument midi track - no channel volume automation?
Re: Aria instrument midi track - no channel volume automation?
No. Only if you render each midi track in order to create audio tracks, volume envelope would be offered.jfhallst wrote:I've created an instance of Garritan Aria and added 5 MIDI tracks, each assigned to a different Aria channel.

I do work with Garritan stuff and use CC7 for this. Works fine here.
Which Garritan library are you talking about? Some Garritan instruments do not have too many samples per note.jfhallst wrote: Also, Aria doesn't respond to velocity information. All notes are played at the same velocity regardless of what's sent from Live.
Also try to find help here: http://ariaengine.com/support/
The quality of Garritan stuff lies more in the ease of use and sound of an ensemble, less in the quality of single instruments. Just my 2 cent!jfhallst wrote: I'm using Live Suite 9.6.1 on a Mac under Yosemite.
