Title: Microbrute & Sonar X3 setup?
Post by: EricDeluxe on February 08, 2014, 07:47:29 pm
Hey

I EDITED THE POST

Got the Microbrute today, and totally love it! I have done some tweaking and tried the internal sequencer etc. Also downloaded the Mini connection software. So far so good...

However I want to connect my DAW Sonar X3 and the Microbrute. I haven't used hardware synths that much, so I could need some help.

- I want to record my knob movements into Sonar from Microbrute. Currently only Modwheel is working. Any ideas?

Thanks!

The modwheel is the only control on the Microbrute that sends MIDI. See my reply to this topic (http://www.arturia.com/evolution/smf/index.php?topic=14976.0) if you want to know why.

Hey

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I realised that was the case. Have to insert CC midi in Sonar instead or record my performance.

Not perfect but perhaps in a firmware update;)

It can't be done in a firmware update. The Microbrute doesn't have the hardware that makes it possible. And for the same reason, you can't use MIDI CCs to automate the Microbrute's parameters. You'll have to do all your knob twiddling live while recording the audio from the Microbrute into Sonar.

Hey

Thanks for that.
I will do so, or insert CC midi envelopes in my DAW. Tweaking is nice though:)

I edited the link in my original post so it should work now.
