If I have a synth, that has a sequencer, and can send midi out, how do I send midi to anot

how do I send midi too another synth?


so if my synth is sugar bytes consequence, and its basically a cool arp, how can I send its midi to rapture?


both synths are in their own folder tracks...   sonar x1 


cheers

Got it..

Hey..  I thought you could drag and drop midi, into Z3ta's 2 arp box...  isn't that right?  for some odd reason, it doesn't want to stick..  am I right though?  or no?


Cheers

Herb it is not as simple as that. Consequence is a VST synth and it has its own built in sequencer/arpeggiator etc. The midi part you are referring to is only what is controlling the arp for example. Linear Phase wants to capture the performance after the arp.

I see on the website that there is a midi OUT feature listed in its features. According to this you can use this to control other synths etc. But you will have to look into how to set that up etc..

Have you updated to the latest version which is currently 1.5.1. This I believe this version is 64 bit but also has midi export capabilities which I gather generates a midi file that you can export and import back into your DAW etc

yep...  latest version 1.5.1  and I found the drag and drop midi pattern in the top right hand corner.  that works really well...  except..  if I was able to send the midi out directly, than I could tweak the two ( consequence, and rapture ) in real time.

I use to take the arps out of my yamaha keyboard and use them in cubase.

To get the stuff into the DAW correctly you have to send midi clock to the synth and have it setup as a slave. ( or the other way around)

Then when you hit play in sonar they both would play and you can record and it will fit in the measures properly.

I use an 8 port usb midi interface, make it possible to do anything you can think up.

Not at my DAW and don't have Consequence. However I do something similar with other plugs. I would try this. Confirm that Consequence is set up as a SYNTH (plug properties), I would open an instance of Rapture as a Simple Instrument, then in the FX bin, right click and open Consequence. Load an arp pattern in Consequence and load a patch in Rapture, and I am guessing you will have to run the transport to get Rapture to sync to the host tempo. Might take some playing with respective settings to get it to work.

Starting with an empty project... 1. Insert Rapture synth as normal so you get an audio track and a midi track, and in Rapture choose a program. 2. Insert Consequence as a synth - important: on Insert Soft Synth Options window check Enable MIDI Output - also check MIDI Source and First Synth Audio Output (you may not need these, but I don't have experience of using Consequence myself). 3. In the track window make sure little drop down at the top shows I/O or All so you can assign the i/o routing. 4. On the Rapture MIDI track the Input= drop down should show Consequence as one of the selectable inputs. Choose it and assign MIDI Omni. 5. On the Rapture MIDI track select Input Echo: On (if you forget to do this the track will only route the MIDI when it is the current selected track). 6. Consequence must have on its interface some sort of Play button. Set it running so it is generating MIDI output. 7. In the track window you should see MIDI arriving in the Rapture MIDI track and, hopefully!, Rapture should be making a sound. That is the basic setup for routing MIDI out from one synth to another. You can refine it by selecting a specific channel so you don't get the MIDI mixed up with other synths in the project. Arm the Rapture MIDI track and record as normal to capture the MIDI output from Consequence. As I said above, I have not actually used Consequence so I'm guessing here. You may be able to control it through its own MIDI input track (that is how you could synchronize it to your project). You may also find that you don't need an audio output track. However, it may use that to time its MIDI output events, in which case deleting the track will stop it working. Hope this is helpful... (sorry if this is all bunched up together, I don't know why the editor is losing my formatting)
