    Now I can run a second little PC as a mixer, use this to control and VBAN to send the audio over ethernet to main PC running OBS. Big deal indeed. Thanks. Come see the results soon on The Shills live streams. (edit: wish I had found out about this little MIDI mixer sooner now as I have wanted hardware control for a few years but didnt want to go with a few sound cards and a mixer and all.)

    Hello!! Hope your health is better!!, This has helped me a lot as a podcaster and would like to thank you. Do you know if there is a problema with the new version of voicemeeter? I have everything working but the leds do not work and cant seems to get them to work.

      Hi Thank you for your kind words. I am not aware of any issues, I have not tested it either. I do recall seeing something recently on their FB page about how midi learn and macros received a uograde. Please check some of the other comments on here to see if it applies to you. The first thing I would check is your midimix software defaults, that it is set to correct notes and control codes.

    Thank you for this video! I was told that it won't change the Arm/Mute lights when used with Studio One.. I'm going to try your tips and see if i can get it to work. Will let you know how it works out.... Meanwhile, please do the detailed video!!

      HI I was so sick that I was unable to do a detailed video, only now am I starting to get back into my groove. I have tried getting this working in studio one, but I can only getting it to partially work with the LEDS and the settings have to be re-initiated on every session which is a bummer. I would have to completely re-think the setup because Voicemeeter has changed significantly since this was taped. I even think the newest version has the ability to do this more natively without having to do control codes, but I have to look into it further. I actually have a faderport I use for Studio one at the moment.

      @@multeemedia - You have a FaderPort? Luck-eeeeee! I don't see anywhere to enter the init,on/off MIDI code in Studio One. That mapping screen in your video must have come from Banana. When you say you got it to "Partially" work with the LEDS... what works and how did you do it? (BTW - Feel better!)

I don't know what will happen if you try to load them into the regular Voicemeeter version. To use these files put them in a folder that you won't delete.

      Hi it is likely because the code is expecting hex instead of decimal. Did you put 10 for the data value? I have to go back and look but I believe the next number in the sequence is 'a' for strip 4 and 'd' for strip 5 and '10' for strip 6, etc

      I don't know, I also don't use FL-Studio, but my guess are this.
      Your midmix control software isn't setup with default settings or FL-Studio is already trying to take control of it.

    How did you map the physical faders with the virtual ones? It wasnt clear in the video how you did that.

    • @multeemedia
      @multeemedia  4 года назад +1

      Hi this is covered by many others that's why I didn't include it, but you can simply open the voicemeeter menu and goto midimapping and then select your midi device from the dropdown list, and then click the learn button on which slider/knob, etc you want to program, and then move the fader/knob, etc. I also updated the video description with my full XML files that you can load in.

    Hi there. Thank you very much for your job and effort! It' works fine except a small detail-problem it came up. When I use the strip's 7 Equalizer Bass Lower third knob it switches from equalizer value to mute Bus1(!!!!) and as i turn the knob it passes from Equalizer value to bass strip 7-unmute Bus 1, mute Bus one and so goes on!!! I show the values for a conflict but I couldn't locate the problem.... Is there any hint about that?

    • @multeemedia
      @multeemedia  4 года назад

      I am not too sure perhaps there is a typo in the XML file somewhere, I don't actually use the equalizer knobs in the virtual inputs.

      ​@@multeemedia I reloaded the xml but still the same erratic behavior! Can you provide please the code for the B1 Mute button to check if there is any reference to that in the xml? Even If I try to "learn" the knob, i can see the results in the window of the midi mapping and it alternates as i turn the knob from - Control Change 56- to - Control Change 56 (coder)-. If i let it to coder when i turn the knob it works only as the mute of b1, alternating as turning the knob, from on to off leaving the bass equalizer of virtual strip #7 unchanged. Any help would be highly appreciated! Best Regards

      @@gregorypaparigas8033 Easy fix is to go into the Macro Buttons settings box for the knob / toggle in question and re-learn the Midi mapping. He shows how to do this @ 7:45 Leave all other settings the same. Simply remap to the correct button (send all for me). Once done, the knob will no longer activate / deactivate the A1 mute and will retain its use as the bass adjustment.

      Hi! That's unfortunate, if you goto ruclips.net/video/1yUt_3Bsciw/видео.html (5:50) you will see button configuration. You must send a midi out and the data for the midimix starts at '90'.
      Sending the below should turn the LED on
      System.SendMidi("out1", "data", 90,1,7f);"
      Sending the below should turn the LED off
      System.SendMidi("out1", "data", 90,1,0);
      Also if you have the MIDImix Editor installed (the software that comes with the unit, make sure you have the LED's in there set to 'NOTE' and not 'CC"
