Hi Valerio -

I have it working in Ableton Live with an MS-10, so I know it definitely works with Korg gear that uses CV.  Unfortunately, I just purchased my Mono/Poly and sent it off for my tech to check out so I have not tried it with the Mono/Poly yet.

However, just a few ideas:

With my MS-10 I had to invert the gate to have it trigger properly.  On the Voice Controller plugin I have it set like this:

Gate Open: 0
Trig On: 1
Vel Max: 1
Gate Closed: 1
Trig Off: 0
Vel Min: -1

What happens if you try calibrating using the "Calibrate Hz/V" button?

Hello,

I'm Valerio, from Italy.

I've tried to set up the demo version of Silent Way SW Voice Controller 1.6.0 in Logic 9.1.7 to control my M/P via a Motu 828mk3 Hybrid but it doesn't work.

Has anybody successfully tried this thing?

Here is what I've done (following instruction shwon in Expert Sleepers YT video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ZUke1CDYY8E:

Physical Connections

- Motu Out 7 goes into MP CV In via the tip plug (ring floating) of a Hosa TRS/2 x TS cable.
- Motu Out 8 goes into MP Trig In via the tip plug (ring floating) of a Hosa TRS/2 x TS cable.
- MP Output goes into Motu In 5.

Logic Setup

I created 2 tracks:

- 1 audio track fed by input 7 (that is Motu In 5)
- 1 SW Instrument track which takes as input Silent Way SW Voice Controller and output to 7-8 channels.

Then I've sidechained input 7 to Silent Way.

In the mixer I've created 2 auxes Silent Way track which output to 5-6 channels (Aux 1) and 7-8 (Aux 2).

That's it.

In the meter of Silent Way channel I can see a continous signal in channel 7 and when I hit a key in my master keyboard I see the signal in channel 8 but nothing happens.

Any idea?

Thanks

Valerio
