In search of more functionality!

In search of more functionality!

2009-02-27 by johntremble72

I have been using BCF with Reaper, got it set for 16 tracks of 
vol/pan/mute/solo + start/stop/forwrd/rev.Now I am trying to get some 
more functionality (aint we all) and have downloaded the trial ver. of 
MIdevice, just to see if it actually "does what it says on the tin" ie. 
the control of VST parameters. I (perhaps stupidly) thought that all I 
have to do is set it up (choose which VST to control) and then twiddle 
knobs on the VST GUI + midi learn on the BCF. There is no support for 
the trial ver. and so no helpfile to get me started. Anybody know how 
to get this working?

Well, they explain it in their public forum. 

There are two ways to use MCX. The first and simpliest one is just to
wrap the wanted plugins and than to use MIDI learn, like you thought. 
For MIDI feedback to your BCF you need a midi out track per plugin.

The second way is to use the virtual device. You MIDI learn your
controller to the virtual device and the virtual device to the wrapped
plugins. This way it works a little bit similar to Novation's Automap
(just without the "Auto"...). For MIDI feedback to your BCF you need a
midi out track per virtual device.

Somebody may correct me, please, if I am wrong.
