These samples were then carefully scripted with advanced keygroup layers and rule switching provided by the UVI Engine, allowing the sustain pedal and release samples to articulate in a natural way, reflective of the physical instrument to ensure the most natural feel and the best playability possible.
And a final goodbye - OK the MI4 is installed Ok but the Cubase doesnt recognise the MI4/dongle but when the MI4 is installed incorrectly (say without compatibility mode) the cubase can see MI4 but I cant get the MI4 panel. So goodbye cubase and hello the free version of presonus studio one.
I am just running a Windows 7 (64bit) PC with Cubase 5.5.3.
First I refreshed the firmware of my MI4 with the MI4_Firmware_1.0.6 from the Steinberg-Portal.
I tried to install MI4 with the newest MI4 Version MI4_2.8.14_Vista 64bit also downloaded from the Steinberg-Portal.
The installation seemed to be successfull, but in Cubase MI4 was not reachable. Wether MIDI MI4IN nor MI4OUT.
When I am using the old device (v206 v4.08) everything seems to be just as expected. But when I use the newer Babyface Pro FS (ESS (?) version, v320, v4.08) on one of the M2 Mac Minis the settings seem to be partially reset after a reload.
It appears only when I reboot (restart) the whole system not TotalMixFX itself. Before I log in as my user and launch TotalMixFX the device has some "default" settings which cause the feedback. Once I open TotalMixFX the normal settings are getting loaded. If I quit and reload, I hear the feedback again (mic is going through the speakers)
UPD. It appears like my Windows PC doesn't cut the power off once I shut it down, so the device doesn't get "reset". So the issue is present on Windows, too, but in order to make sure it is reproduced you have to make sure you cut down the power to the device instead of just rebooting.
You can change the location of the Totalmix workspace file from user library to system library to prevent the issue with your loudspeaker.
There is a special option to do so :
In Totalmix preferences the last point - store settings for all users - enable it.
Sure, I think you're right, but I still don't really understand how those "system settings" work. I don't even think this has to do with TotalMixFX at all, because when the computer boots up it doesn't have a chance to have TotalMixFX opened and the workspace to be loaded up. And the old device works just fine, so probably it is not the TotalMixFX-related issue (or is it?).
When the Babyface is connected to the computer, the computer will start Totalmix on booting, Totalmix then picks up the workspace file.
Without computer the babyface is in standalone mode and behaves normal.
All settings are stored within the unit and do not get lost until the next time stand-alone mode is used.
Page 90 and 91 describe the standalone-mode.
In standalone mode I have changed the mix settings as described on the manual pages (using MIX button) and now they are not reset after the reload (they probably are still reset, but the reset values are the same)
I have an issue with my Babyface Pro FS and I wonder if someone can help there.
I have a PreSonus 8 preamps rack connected in ADAT to the Babyface, it works nice.
Sometimes I want to use the Babyface in standalone mode, and use only the ADAT inputs 1/2. I've read the manual, and it is said that only ADAT inputs 1/2 work in standalone mode, but that it should works nice. However, when I switch my Babyface in standalone mode, it seems that both ADAT channels 1 and 2 are summed to the input ADAT 1, that input being routed only to local the Output 1 of myBabyface, which is physically only my left monitor.
I tried to route things in standalone mode, but the main problem is the summing of ADAT channels 1 and 2 on ADAT input mode in standalone mode. When I plug my computer back everything is patched correctly again.
I can not test this but I remember having read 1 2 3 and 4 go to 1 left and 5 6 7 and 8 go to 2 right. So maybe you can use adat 1 and 5 on your presonus. Let me know if this works, cause I need this too in the near future.
Additionally, would the Babyface Pro provide any other benefits while working on large (200+ track count) post-production projects with lots of resource-intensive effects? I primarily use REAPER, but also Pro Tools, Logic, and Live on occasion.
Even if your hearing is fine, it will also depend on how you are listening:
Are you using very high end studio monitors and/or headphones?
If you are listening through loudspeakers, are your room acoustics optimised?
Regarding the headphone out: Your MacBook Pro is one of the first with substantially upgraded headphone outputs, according to Apple: "When you connect headphones with an impedance of less than 150 ohms, the headphone jack provides up to 1.25 volts RMS. For headphones with an impedance of 150 to 1k ohms, the headphone jack delivers 3 volts RMS."
That's probably loud be enough for most headphones...
I probably would only bother to connect/invest in a Babyface if you need any of the features (preamps/inputs/connection types/etc.).
The only feature in that sense, which could reduce the load of a post production session, is that you could run RME's Digiface NG software on the Babyface's DSP for analyzers/metering/loudness measuring purposes and wouldn't need a plugin on your master channel for that. Don't think this matters much though on modern powerful Macs.
