Plogue bidule bypassing audio engine reset?

Plogue as vst still bypassing audio engine reset?, I’ve read this a while back, has this worked out for song transitions?, mainstage as audio engine reset while pressing play ( click count in), is absurd...., Gig performers audio player doesn’t have this problem, but it’s simpler

I haven’t used this for a few years (because it was a setup I did for someone else) but I can check it out if you like. It’ll have to wait until Monday though.

Plogue plug in not easy, not sure how it’s done, thought only had to load it, say Omnisphere and viola , but plogue window has no audio to connect Omnisphere to

I've just had a look at this to refresh my memory and all you need to do is the following:

1) Create a software instrument channel strip

2) Put the Bidule plugin in the Input slot

3) Open the Bidule plugin. You'll see a Bidule plugin input and output, and probably a mixer as well....I just delete the mixer because I prefer to do everything within MainStage.

4) In the Bidule plugin, add your software instrument plugin and connect it to the Bidule input and output. Within your software instrument, set up the patch you want to use.

 

That's it. Once you're back in MainStage, just set the output for that channel strip and you're done.

Wow, sounds easy, thnx, I try tomorrow,

Yup, worked as you said , I did not see the audio in on the lower bidule plug-in midi module , thanx , really nice ..., I’m guessing it’s just for our 3 rd party plugs , can’t really use for propriety ones ?

 

Have to wonder if there are anymore workarounds in MS, to find that one must of took forever ?

Yeah, you can’t use Apple’s plugins...only third party.

And yes, that workaround took weeks to discover!

i might be asking a dumb question, but what are you trying to work around?

If you start playback when playing a patch, the patch cuts out e.g. meaning that you can’t sustain a pad (or anything else) whilst starting playback. I assume this is still an issue but haven’t checked it myself....it’s been a couple of years since I realised the issue and found a workaround.

Oh ya, still an issue, and a serious one at that, nothing more irritating to give a full ambient pad before the 2 bar count in , then it cuts off to silence when play button is hit, so ridiculous

Maddcow, now that bidule can play a pad , I’m trying to trigger a note ( actually that pad ) thru a latch pedal ( connected to my Nord) which is ,( Omnisphere in latch mode) but MS seems it can’t map a note trigger ( drum pad) to an external trigger ( pedal)

 

I can use my mouse and trigger the drum pad , any way u know ?

Sorry, I have no idea. Hopefully someone else can help you out!

Worked , just open nk2 editor and change button to note and voila

Nice!

So glad to hear you've got stuff working for you. It can be so frustrating when you've got an obscure issue.
