Multi-timbrals & Multi-channel VSTs in Mixcraft (new)

Post by chibear »

While it was fresh in my mind, I figured I put out a video of what was discussed in a recent thread by Gasperius on setting up Kontakt. As Microsoft has permanently locked the account where the graphics for my previous articles' graphics exist, meaning they will disappear in time, a rehash was appropriate and since I now have FastStone, videos will replace all the wordiness. I'll leave the other video in Gasparius' thread until it's stale & Mark wants me to talk more, so the first of new videos on:

Kontakt
IK Miroslav Philharmonik (Sample Tank 2)
EWQL Play

Mark wants me to talk more
:lol:
I just find the description and explanation of actions far more helpful than video "tutorials" where I am so focused on trying to follow the mouse (if I can see it!) that the whole point gets hard to comprehend.

Besides, your voice is soothing. :lol:

Good work and a much appreciated effort. 8)
Stay in tune, Mark

Very nice!

We should link to to the original discussion mentioned in the video. Was it this one?

You know, if you wanted to do a general video tutorial on this subject (one that doesn't make references to previous user forum discussions), I'd be happy to share it on social media.

I was going to share this one, but then I thought that people might wonder who this Gasparius fellow was.

Thanks! OK I'll let you know when I've redone it. In this thread I 'll just link to the new video. Next time I'll try to do it before I take my pills so maybe I don't slur my speech so much :lol:

The link you gave is the old text & pics version from a couple of years ago. That's the thread that has the account with all the graphics locked by Microsoft.

The recent thread thread we had the discussion with Gasparius is here: http://forums.acoustica.com/bbs/viewtop ... =4&t=18959

Edit: did the new video this evening. It's attached to the the original 'Kontakt' link

Hi Clyde,

Thank you for re-doing the video. This should really help people out. I put it on Facebook, Twitter and Google+.

Cool! Thanks! I just put Miroslav Philharmonik up. I'll try to do EWQL Play tomorrow.

To make the resource complete, I would invite everyone who is able to add videos for the many missing VSTi's. When I see a link I'll add it to the OP so ppl won't have to scroll through the entire thread for the info.

Hi,

The Route To Track feature allows you to use tracks instead of lanes to send MIDI into virtual instruments.
