for example kontakt 7 (player), falcon, ample guitars. in studio one 5 output can see that note on , pitchbend , aftertouch messages cycle from 2 to 15 never channel 1 evewn if i press only 1 note. maybe this instruments allow only pitchbend from channel 1 and have not full mpe support. studio one have correct mpe because surge XT work with pitchbend. or is there a way that it can work ?
it is also usefull to can use pitchbend and aftertouch for all notes and no MPE need. maybe there is a setting for this ? .
I own a xkey 37 too and i think it is very important on exquis too that, aftertouch can set that it only activate on harder for example over vel 64. also usefull is when aftertouch happen only after a delay time of 0.2 sec or more. have set it in xkey editor which can test without hardware to see. also i canset in kxey editor that velocity under 20 create no note on. so it is not possible that there happen no wrong releases because pressure is too low . i get this in exquis when play soft often.
hello
can somebody from exquis answer wy it not work and if it can in future updates work ?. falcon and kontakt support MPE, but pitch bend do not work
I see in manual there can switch the used channels for MPE
Channel 1 is used
for global messages, rotating the encoder
allows you to edit the number of additional
MIDI channels, shown by the number of lit
hexagons on the keyboard (1 to 15).
I set it to 1 and all is send on channel 2. but no pitchbend and aftertouch in this synths. i think it is important that exquis have a compatible mode that it have a non MPE compatible mode that it send pitch bend and poly aftertouch as other synths do when only 1 note is pressed, or when more notes are pressed it send pitch and aftertouch from the last pressed key
Have you set the right pitchbend range on the controller? You can use pitchbend (X axis) and CC74 (Y axis) but indeed if the plugin is not MPE it will affect all notes at once (and send contradictory signals)
We tried to use the slider as a pitch and mod wheel, but it was not precise and conclusive enough (the electronic component was not meant for that)
I see in the midi input monitor of studio one that pitchbend controller send data
It seem the bytes that exquis send from pitchbend have wrong order pitch bend e2 00 40 is middle e2 00 7f is full up e2 00 00 is full down. i notice when i move exquis pad left or right it never reach 7f or 0 in last byte when i press full left or full right. the last byte change from 3f to 42 the first data byte change more.
i compare with my midi keyboard this work that way
in midi spec stand this seem exquis do this not
In the pitchbend message, we combine the two bytes (the LSB and the MSB) to make a single 14-bit value that has a range from 0 to 16,383
I have change exquis to use only 1 channel for MPE. then only 1 pad light when play chords . this mean only this pad can use to send pitch bend messages. which is correct and usefull
Can you see that there is something wrong with the byte order of pitch bend messages ?. maybe it is diffrent between mac and windows ?. I use windows . i also test pitch range of 1 and 2 semitones. When not use mpe pitchbend messages of exquis seem wrong
