Hi there, couldn’t find anyone with the problem I’m experiencing. I’m using gig performer as a midi setup control. Master keyboard is sending midi to gp and gp is sending midi to two keyboards midi program change. On one of this keyboards that are receiving gp messages I’m using setup with two layers. My gp rack has two plugins output for each of the two layers on the same keyboard. Also there is two widgets for controlling the volume for both layers. One layer volume is 115 and second one 95. Second layer has bypass widget and was working in a way that makes sense. With new version that changed. Now when I press bypass button on or of it resets the volume to maximum 127. Is there any new settings that I’m not aware of or is it a new way how bypass output widget works now? When I say output plugin I mean midi output.
Thanks in advance, in version 4.5.8. bypass doesn’t send volume reset, just note off.
Can you upload a small gig file showing the issue?
Sorry, gp file or short video of the issue? Right now I just started the contract on a cruise ship and had to install the 4.5.8. version so I can use it. I can only make new gp file with one rack that I’m using the most.
Please upload a sHort gig file
New users can’t upload files. But I’m pretty sure the behaviour of bypass function changed. Before version 4.7. bypass would send only notes off and hold pedal off. Now in 4.7. it sends much more including all controllers off, which I think is the problem. Is there any way to setup what bypass is sending or I have to find another way of controlling the layers, or just use the old version. If you still insist in sending the gig file, then we transfer or similar.
ok, so this is the link for gig file.
thanks for your time.
You bypass a midi in plugin?
Nope. Midi out.
Ok, I will check
By the way, why bypass?
Just throw a MIDI Filter plugin after your MIDI In block and block the All Controllers Off message
I am wondering why bypass a midi out plugin.
I think better would be block note on messages in a filter before the midi out plugin.
The end device is Kurzweil pc2 rack version which plays setup with two layers, channel 1 - piano, channel 2 - strings. I’m using piano only for beggining of the song, and want to add the second layer (strings in this rack) for choruses or more full parts of the songs and I’m controlling the bypass switch with midi foot controller. If there is more convenient way to do so I’m open for suggestion.
Thanks again for your time. But anyway all controllers off during bypass doesn’t make sense, I hope it’s a mistake not an improvement of the bypass behaviour.
For me that makes sense
But if that is an issue, better you use a midi filter plugin to block note on messages
This way you can simulate midi patch persist with external gear.
But midi in is not the one making problems, midi out is the one.
Sure, but I think better is not to bypass but use a midi filter plugin.
I don’t have the problem with midi persistence. Totally opposite. Right now when I mute the layer (bypass midi out plugin) for a moment I can hear volume going up to 127 before it’s muted. Please explain why all controllers off makes sense? If I want to mute and unmute plugin but I have other control sends to the same plugin I would like to stick with parameters I setup for the particular plugin, not have them reset to maximum values whenever I mute them or unmute. No?
I understand the issue you have, therefore I try to find a solution for that.
Aha, ok. I thought a little bit. You are suggesting that I should have two midi inputs for each two midi outputs and then bypass the midi in and put a filter between in and out?
But, I’m not sure this would work since I’m sending midi from one channel.
