<t>You have to keep in mind, that the SonicCell is a hardware synthesizer. So in order to save an audio file, nuendo has to play the midi file to the SC, which in turn delivers back the audio signal. you have to record this audio signal in nuendo before you can export it. in sonar, there is a prepar...

<t>Hi champy, <br/> i had the same problem. in my opinion, there is no way around some extra gear. there are a whole bunch of tools like foot-controllers, desktop-controllers, keyboards with master-keyboard-features, etc. this usually means a bit of looking into the midi implementation. i first trie...

i haven't used the mic-in much, but as far as i've heard, the preamp in the soniccell isn't bad and you have phantom power as well, so you should be fine. if you really feel the urge to use a dedicated preamp, you can still buy it later.

Cheers!

<r>are you sure, the mastering section is enabled at all? in the editor, when you are in performance screen, you can find a mastering switch on the top right. <br/> yet, i'm a bit puzzled, because one time, you talk about mfx eq, the other time about mastering stage, which are two different things. ...

<t>i just stumbled across your "When the midi thru is off, fine, tinkle tinkle." You mean "USB-MIDI Thru" in the systems settings of the SC, right? also look at "Soft Through" in the midi sub-menu. as far as i got it, if you turn this on, everything sent from your pc to the SC over usb won't be proc...

<r>before buying, i would try the combination in a store. i'm using a yamaha p80 with a sonic-cell and had quite some trouble. i couldn't achieve a good match of the yamahas velocity sensitivity and the sonic cell. in the end, i'm now using a diy device, translating the velocity. <br/> maybe this on...

Jepp, that's it!

<r>Hi, congratulations on the purchase and welcome to the forum <E>:)</E> <br/> i think, i can help you on most points. <br/> <br/> 1) i looked up the implementation for GM / GS reset in the manual. on page 251, your sysex messages are referred to as "GM/GS System on" changing into GM/GS Mode. The o...

<t>Hi varsity, <br/> <br/> phew, that's strange. i know, a few people had similar issues with synths with integrated keybed. i'm not sure, what the reason was there. you might wan't to do a search on "sustain" and look what helped them. <br/> <br/> Only thing i experienced with the SonicCell: <br/> ...

<r>I didn't really get, what exactly you want to achieve with the blank channel. or did you mean part there? <br/> I could imagine, that current mfx-settings are always hold in the temporary memory. so if you change the MFX src to another patch, the entire MFX has to be copied into temporary memory....

<t>that would be easier for sure. but if i remember right, i wanted to do the same on my soniccell and it didn't work. consider, that when you are in performance-mode, you might want to change the patch of a part with BS+PC. in that case, the part, listening to channel 16 cannot be assigned a new pa...

<r>there's a sysex-message which let's you change the sound-mode. I'm using a SonicCell but i guess, these are the same messages. just give me a minute to look it up... <br/> <br/> you can lookup the msg in the manual from page 251 on. i did this for you (and used the fantom manual <E>:-P</E> ) so h...

i'd say, it doesn't need such a switch as it hasn't got any internal keyboard to switch away from. it only can play what it recieves via midi-in or usb. but you can define the key-range for every part individualy, so i guess it will work for you

Cheers, Alex

da-man, basically you're right. but roland offers an vst, that acts like the editor, so you can remote control it in a daw.

I guess, your MIDI INST button is lit, when you enter the menu? then you can only write the performance. press the button until it goes out. if you go to the menu now, you can write your system-settings.

Cheers
Alex
