A new question regarding JO and DAW. While still JO does not show up in Logic I can record/track. The problem now is that many random unintended notes (that I never played) are being triggered out of control together with what i am actually playing, as you can imaging when playing back the recorded track is just a mess of chaotic sounds. Tried tweaking te Midid velocitysettings in JO, still no improvement. Any suggestions are well appreciated. Thanks.
Did you set MIDI Guitar up as suggested here ?
http://www.jamorigin.com/docs/daw/#toggle-id-3 Here's a post in a thread I started on how I use Midi Guitar ( I prefer to use it standalone on Mac and PC )
http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3580819If you haven't seen the thread before you may even decide to read the whole thread ..its short ...
as far as all the unintended notes ? I have no idea how well you play the guitar
One thing is for sure , if you want better results using a guitar to trigger Midi you will have to make a concerted effort to clean up your guitar playing ...
Now I'm not saying you don't know how to play ..what I'm saying is Midi Guitar is pretty sensitive and little pic hits and unintended fret noises, ghost notes on chords and any other number of things may slip through and trigger a false note that will show up ....
Also it's a good idea to have an understanding of what is reasonable and what is not ...
If your a rhythmic chord player and you like to strum hard ...forgetaboutit ....
I have been playing / using a Midi Guitar since 1982 ...my start was w hardware obviously & I still have hardware .
A number of years ago I had gotten Jam Origins MIDI GUITAR . I much prefer it over hardware ...
The thing is even about 2 years ago I found it very difficult to use MIDI GUITAR for my finger-style Jazz guitar playing ... it was not due to a lack of CHOPS over here on my end
The simple fact of the matter is there is a lot of potential tapped and untapped when it comes to using Jam Origins MIDI GUITAR ...in the past few releases they had dialed in the plug in ways I find to be amazing ...
I can do things now I couldn't do using MIDI GUITAR only because they have constantly improved the tracking and functionality of the program ...
My suggestion to you would be once you get up and running , start practicing while using MIDI GUITAR triggering all types of different types of synth patches ...
I know that helps get a feel for how it's gonna track and how you will need to adjust your playing to get a satisfying
result...
another thing you can do is to slow down the track you are playing to ..if the tune is at 120 bpm and you can play your midi guitar parts cleanly at a slower tempo that may help you make some progress ...
good luck ,
Kenny
