new pvst beta (updated 2010-03-26)

[Retrofox]

With the more recent buzz builds, i've been having problems with midi controlling & keyjazzing several of my vsti's (with loader 1.1.9.9.4), but the latest b5 seems to have cured all that! I can even record in PXP now!

Thanks a million polac & keep up the good work!

I finally got the polac asio working after installing this version. Midi out is working like a dream, and the pxp midi record is amazing. Good work!

I've just noticed this video player vst. I think it deserves a bigger announcement - it's fantastic and it works flawlessly here.

Media player vst from Polac. Get it here:http://www.buzzchurch.com/viewtopic.php?t=4607

Fixed in 1208.

[etruscan]

Glad that's fixed - I wasn't sure if it was Buzz, me, or my hardware synth. Thanks

Happy to report that Kontakt 3 and 4 are working here too!

Interesting bit is that although Kontakt 3 and ME80 crashes Buzz if used in same project, Kontak 4 and ME80 don't crash Buzz. Which is fine since I can use K3 lib in K4. (Edit: or not, since I need to buy the kontakt 4 upgrade. Nice one NI

Pro-53 still refuses to load.

And btw your mediavst is amazing!

[casperghost]

Can someone clue me in real quick how to use the new record to wavetable feature?

[magmavander]

Seems to work ok here. I didnt have any particular problem unless two or three VST that asked for registering again.
Thanks Polac!!!

I can't seem to transpose the octave for keyjazzing. I understand the keyb shortcuts are * and /. Does it only work on the numpad as I am now using a laptop?

[ags]

Yes its always been numpad only, you should be able to access numpad keys with a func/fun modifier key though.

Yeah you'll have to hit FN and the * and / that are found near the right section of the board (the keys labels are usually marked in a blue colour)

EDIT: ags got there first !

[pbhs]

Everything working incredibly well.

1000 and more "Thanks to you" Polac.

Any chance for an automatic portamento command (Define amount of glide which is repeated automatically until the given not is reached)? This would prevent of typing the same values into patterns over & over.

When I use Peerchord to send notes to my external MIDI gear via PVST, I get a strange occurrence sometimes.

Some of the notes, especially > 16th notes, get stuck in some kind of "memory" where they can continue to play in sequence even after Buzz is stopped. F12'ing on/off from Buzz doesn't work, neither does "all notes off" from PVST. Even closing Buzz altogether doesn't seem to stop the endless backlog of notes from continuing to play and this might point to a MIDI problem or problem with my soundcard itself, but maybe it's also how Buzz or PVST buffers the events or something.

Anyone?

[mute]

I dont think all notes off sends midi note off out.

Sounds like you have open notes on your synth where you're using sustain (not turning off when stopped) and a long release (multiplying same note as several 16 notes play) and that you're not sending note offs.

[synthphase]

No, it's not sustain or stuck notes. Even with no release and sustain, notes are still being sent. I should have mentioned before, but the midi event light on my Microwave XT (the unit in question) is still flashing when I stop Buzz or close it, so I know that it's still receiving midi from memory somewhere!

[machinehead]

Would it be possible to be able to save the auto learn midi cc as a loadable file instead of having to re-learn all the assignments again for different machines

[mute]

[machinehead]

I have done that but if move from one machine to another i have to rebind all the controllers to the new machine. If i was able to save a template it would be a snap rather than a chore.

[mute]

look in your PVST Data directory, find the VST's directory, copy its config file and while you're in there.. any presets or favorites you might have made/want.

optionally you can just copy the entire directory over and then use 'clean up' from pvst to get rid of anything you dont have on that specific computer.

everytime i install a new os or move to a new computer, i always take a copy of my pvst data directory with me. that way i have all my presets, favorites and default settings.


for example;
C:\Users\Aaron\Documents\PVST Data\

I'm getting stuck notes keyjazzing in Blok VST's patch editor. I'm guessing that there's a conflict with PVST's own keyjazz causing note-offs to go missing. I tried Preferences->Disable Keyjazzing figuring it would just prevent PVST's own keyjazz but it stops Blok's built in keyjazz too. Preferences->Route PC Keyboard Input To VST doesn't seem to make any difference to the problem. This is with 1.1.10b6. It didn't seem to happen as much with PVST 1.1.9.9.4.

Is there a way to fix this? If I had to choose between keyjazz in the patch editor or in the normal gui then keyjazz in the editor is far more useful.

i've experienced problems with several vsts (instable, crashing) and i wondered if (in case it doesnt exist yet) we could make a list of all vsts which require extra settings in the polac loader + comment if it's the loader/plugin itself causing problems.

thx

hi, i noticed some odd behaviour with Synth1 1.07. i think this might be easier to understand if you're familiar with this plugin.

in the previous pvst version making modifications to a preset, saving the song & opening it again worked perfectly, in the sense that the preset changes kept saved along with the song.

with pvst 1.1.10b6 this isn't working: if i load up a preset in Synth1's own preset manager (i made an "init" one to start from scratch), make some changes, save the song & open it again, pvst loads up the preset saved in the plugin preset manager (it does not load/save any subsequent changes).

a workaround for this is using the preset manager in Synth1 extensively: make changes, save them in the preset manager, etc.

[engine]

this loader gets better and better.

a tiny question, is it possible to exclude a specific folder from scanning?
a simple prefix in the xml.

got some very old registered vstis that refuse to load the new buzz + polac and i dont want the folder moved/deleted.

EDIT: typo.

[polac]

[groovelastig]

@polac

does PVST support incremental CCs (the ones sending 96 for increase / 97 for decrease value) now, by any chance?

the question came up in this thread, I looked through all the menues but couldn't find anything

new PVST runs stable for me so far, thanks for the hard work you put in!!
