Problem between Ableton Live 7 & minimonsta (automations)

Post by steamed2000 » Tue Feb 03, 2009 5:07 pm

Hello,

I've a problem in doing the automation of the vst Gforce minimonsta in Ableton Live 7 :-(


I'm going to try to explain this problem clearly:


P.S: I've got my midi set up all good in Live. Minimoog, fm8 (.fxb) etc... works perfectly.


1. I open the minimonsta.

2. I Select a sound via the minimonsta plug in
( I can't select the sound using the live vst window cause it cannot load the ".mmm".)

3. I register some notes in a midi clip.

4. I play this clip in the sequencer.


Till there, all is ok.


5. I click "Record" on live ableton and move the cut off button (up & down) with the mouse.

6. Live ableton memorise those moves (drawing automation)

7. However, when I play the clip, the minimonsta doesn't react to my automation.

It's strange because I see the automation of the cut off on live ableton windows (open with ">" : Cut off) moving,
but the minimonsta doesn't react (the button cut off of the vst minimonsta plugin doesn't move)
:-(

Is there any solution?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi steamed2000,

could it be you touch the automated parameter after the recording stopped? This leads to the Back-To-Arrangement button lighting up red. Click the button: does the automation play back as expected thereafter?

Best,

I've done that, but it still unfortunatly doesn't work :-(

P.S: all my other vst (fm8, minimoog) works perfectly, that's strange...

prehaps it's because of the preset of the minimonsta that are ".mmm" and not ".fxb" :-(

Same problem for me.

When I load the minimonsta in an Instrument Rack and tweak the plug's knob, the corresponding device in Live responds and can be mapped to a Macro Control. But when I tweak this Macro Control in Live, the device moves whithout affecting the MM.
Parameters informations seems to work from MM to Live only, not the inverse.
