You can talk!
In every post I have seen you in, you had some strange sign language, like this



I always thought it was some type of hieroglyphics and have spent countless hours trying to decipher it. Wow.

Hi there,

Have set all this up, and it appears to be working in that C9 is definitely working the master fader. But none of the other controls seem to do anything.

I definitely received the SysEx dump, and all three plug ins are set up with in and out assigned. Been through the thread a couple of times checking everything, and am scratching my head now.

If you read the whole thread and the readme info and the info page in the .cwp, I have no more ideas what can be wrong.

Sorry.

I wish some Cakewalk rep could read here and give us some input on what can be wrong.

But it seems we have nothing but ourselves.

I'm sure I'll work it out - it's obvious that the actual plug ins are working, as the master volume wasn't even doing anything until I double checked all the settings, at which point it suddenyl came to life.

Thanks for this, really interesting and useful.

The Master Volume is not linked to the Plug ins, it's assigned via remote control.

Are you using the .cwp that was in the zip?

Yeah, just can't get anything else happening.

I don't think I understand this well enough, really. I'm don't get the distinction between the plug ins and remote control. What is the remote control?

You assign sliders and knobs on your Keystation via remote control by right clicking on what you want to control (slider in the console view, for instance), and selecting Remote Control, then, click the Learn Button, and move the slider, or knob on your MIDI controller you want to assign to that GUI control.

Well, I don't know what's wrong if things aren't working for you. I'm out of ideas.

Don't you have to have the ACT properties open to do all of that?

What are you refering to, John?

Say John, did things work right for you when you tried these setup files?

Sure would be helpful to know how it went for you.

It is my experience with ACT that you need to have the ACT properties page open in order to assign anything to anything. Once that is done it can be closed. Thats the one with the all the boxes for assigning controls. Its not all that intuitive for new users.

I wish you hadn't asked about how I have gotten along with this thread. I am still setting up Sonar in Vista. I had it all under control in XP with the neat stuff you have but hadn't use it yet. Now I am back at ground zero on this. I will get to it soon though. If only because you deserve my attention for the hard work you have put into this.
