Dimension Pro - stuck MIDI notes with Cubase 4

Hi,

I installed Dimension Pro and the 1.2 update.
I can play it as usual via MIDI-Keyboard.

But when I record some stuff and then play this MIDI-Record, every MIDI-note stucks in Dimension Pro.
All my ohter VSTi are behavong normal and correct.
Only Dimension Pro can't read the recorded MIDI correctly...

The multitimbral function is no solution.

How can I fix that problem?

    Chad...

    The DLL you sent me to address this problem was apparently a beta. It did fix the problem and DPRO was working beautifully in Vista...
    Now I get an error that the beta has expired and I can no longer use DPRO... The only alternative is to reinstall it which of course reintroduces the Stuck Midi Notes

    Please Help

    Please contact Chad again to get an updated binary, if you didn't do already, so you can continue working.

    This issue only affect customers running Cubase 4, not any other Steinberg host (Nuendo, V-STack, etc.) nor other VST host.

    Our fix for it is more a 'hack' than a fix, so we're waiting for the official word about it before any official release. I believe the change is related to VST3 (http://knowledgebase.steinberg.net/147_1.html). Apparently, the spec will be ready in Q3 this year (has been slipping since last year). It's very soon.

    Glad that finally someone adresses the cubase 4 problem .....
    Dimension Pro worked fine in cubase 4 after i got a new .dll from cakewalk ... surprised that the stucked note thing wasn´t fixed in V 1.2. Now i got the same message that my beta version is expired ???
    No chance to get dimension pro back to work, since i´m currently working on an important remix where i was using a lot of dimension pro stuff ... it´s a real bummer for me
    Reset my sytem time like cakewalk told me made thing even worse and messed up pther authorisation ... aaarghh.
    I love dimension pro and need HELP !!! Have to work .....

    I don't get it. Why you got a new dll from Cakewalk then? The only "new dll" we distributed was aimed to fix hanging notes in Cubase 4.


    surprised that the stucked note thing wasn´t fixed in V 1.2


    More surprising would've been that it *would* fix it:

    Dimension Pro 1.2 release date: March 31, 2006
    Cubase 4 release date: Sep 20 2006

    >>> Hey Rene,

    thanks for the reply. I got an new .dll (from chad) because of the stucked note problem in cubase 4 with Dimenson Pro´s first release.
    So maybe i explained it a little wrong ... sorry for that.
    But it´s a fact that Dimension Pro always had this problem ... After i got the new .dll eveyrthing worked fine until i got the message that my "beta version is expired" ??? .... so now it´s not working again (Dimension Pro 1.2 / Cubase 4 latest Update) I was just surprised that the next update after the issue was known didn´t fixed it .....

    Any chance to get it working ????

    best wishes,
    steve

    Thanks. There wasn't a 'next update' since the issue is known, so we didn't have a chance to fix it. Furthermore, as I explained early in this thread, our fix is more a 'hack' than a 'fix'. We are waiting for the official word from Steinberg on how to solve this properly.

    Does anyone else have a problem with the new .dll file running Dimension Pro in Cubase 4? I have noticed that I don't have the ability to add elements to a program. It's an annoying inability within Dimension Pro to not be able to create your own programs.

    hi guys,

    i too have stuck MIDI notes using dimenson pro with cubase studio 4. I have XP64 PRo.

    About a year ago i had this problem and sent an email to chad to ask for the fix, which i received. Sadly the fix stopped working some time ago and I haven't been able to get a reply from chad about a new fix since.

    Can anyone help me ?

    yes I managed to get it sorted out. Is this the same chad ?

    I needed to update my vst instruments from cubase itself. So all sorted now. How long do these fixes generally last ? I'm doing a show in november and will be cacking myself if the fix runs out during it.....

    they shouldn't run out , you mean as in "time limited", I'd be 99% sure (only thing certain is death / taxes as they say) .. as users (including myself) would be emailing the bakers a lot more if that was the case..

    My last Beta version of the fix expired earlier this year...(i installed it last August) was wondering if this one will do the same. If I die before it is due to expire I won't have anything to worry about....

    fatar760, but in the link.. it doesn't mention anywhere about beta's

    I mean I beta test something else , elsewhere.. and yep their is expiry dates on the beta's.. that link I'm pretty sure is the final version of it. As for your last comment , I hope not..

    I'm sure one of the bakers will but in with the definitive answer on Monday when they are back at work, or maybe before.

    hi Jarred ,

    did you try updating DP also ?

    and the patch

    http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/kb/kb20070829.asp

    it works fine in sonar and in cubase for me (well I haven't tried it in 4.5 yet) .. might be you hardware synth not releasing the note and a local setting in that? do you use anything like a sustain pedal also?

    I am using Cubase 5 and getting this issue, applied patch from http://www.cakewalk.com/s...eader.aspx?ID=20070829 and no change

    I'd run the latest Dim Pro 1.5 update here:

    -  The Dimension Pro 1.5 update
    http://www.cakewalk.com/s...der.aspx?ID=2007013166

    It's possible that you overwrote only your DXI and not the VST dll that is being scanned by cubase.

    Update to 1.5 and it will automatically replace your VST dll file, with the latest version of Dim Pro which also includes that stuck note fix.

    It still sounds like you've got an old Dimension Pro version hiding on your system.

    Verify that all of your Dimension Pro.dll files have been replaced with the later versions.  Perform a file search for Dimension Pro.dll.  View the properties of all of the Dimension Pro.dll files.  Remove any Dimension Pro.dll that reads to be version lower then version 1.5.0.X.

    Ah, ok. I see the Dimensio Pro folder and in there there's a Dimension Pro.dll, but there's also one in a subfolder. I didn't want to overwrite the subfolder one because I was scared. I'll try that now.
