Yea, I have always drawn my automation. But it was a good experience for me to investigate how the MIDI stuff works.

Yeah for me too, and I have no problem with the solution as it stands...I just wish I could configure Guitar Rig as a synth AND an effect. But when I try to click both checkboxes in the VST settings, they act as radio buttons. It's odd, because I swear that sometime during all of my frantic experimentation with the plugin manager, I had both "configure as time based effect" AND "configure as synth" selected. Now I can't seem to do that. So frustrating.

Hmm, so I have to set up a separate MIDI track to record my Guitar Rig automation. Interesting. I'm not sure how this would work with multiple instances of Guitar Rig on multiple tracks, though.

One Midi track per instance should work. It would just be a case of routing the midi track to the correct instance, just like haveing multiple instances of any soft synth.

I guess you're right. These things always seem more complicated to me until I try them. 

I use GR 5 configured as a synth all the time, so that I can use both a Behringer FCB 1010 midi pedal board and the controls on my Axiom Pro 61 controller to control GR 5 knobs and wah wah and what not.

I would agree with trying to gauge effect of splitting those simple instrument tracks out, just to see if that helps.

I will try to set up a test of all of what you are trying to do, and will psot back with my results,

Hi Bob - when you use GR 5 as a synth, have you noticed any of the weirdness I talked about above, regarding putting it in an FX bin? I just cannot get any volume out of it until I have the ProChannel turned on and set to "Post." I can't work out why this is. It sounds distant and muffled and the input slider in GR doesn't seem to do much. 

do you have it in a normal fx bin or a pc fx bin??

I use a regular FX bin and do not seem to have that problem.
