Playback of MfX Automation?

Post by cvargs »

so im running through this for the first or second time. recording of MFX automation goes just fine. however...When playing back it seems you have to reset the knobs to exactly your start position for it to work "perfect" otherwise the playback starts where the knob ended and doesn't move until when that particular knob is required to move by the"midi data"?...giving you a slightly different playback. a littly anoying...Im guessing this can be over come by adding some empty measures at the start and making sure to fiddle each knob prior to where you want them to start modulating sound. that way each knob resets from the silent data and should therefore be in position when the music starts.
Any input appreciated.

thanks

Yes, you're right. You will need to put the initial values you want the parameters to be at at the start of the section or piece.

thanks. adding some empty measures at the start and figitting the three knobs while in the empty space at the strat of recording does work to reset them "automaticly" every time you playback from the begining. that way no matter where the knobs/settings are they will jump to where you started them when they recieve the "figit" data at the start and no need to reset manualy...very helpful if you want to play the loop a few times without stoping and reseting/trying to remember where they were.
