Yamaha Promix 01 Midi Software 16
Clarabella Doom
There was a similar topic posted with an old screenshot at the following URL: =35783 but I cannot figure out how to replicate the Select Track assignments in that posted screenshot. When looking at the screenshot one can see it shows Parameter "Select" and then Class: Channel Strip, Channel Strip: Index. I even tried manually setting this up, but there is no way that I found to manually assign Parameter "Select" when in Class: Channel Strip. A solution would be greatly appreciated! (BTW I am using an older non-usb Yamaha Promix 01 as the controller over midi ports, and so far successfully setup 16 motorized faders and associated channel buttons to control track: volume, mute and unmute, and pan).
ok. to the topic.
i've been stuck in this situation for 4 years now since i bought my Yamaha motif rack, and i'm still looking for ways to solve it. i'm a pro tools user on a pc and with the Yamaha motif rack (the classic model), i wanted to record midi into pro tools. so, i hooked everything up they way it should be hooked. but, when i record midi, it records all the midi notes that i played. the problem is that when i play it back, i don't hear anything.
here's how i set it up: using two midi cables, i plug the first midi cable from the output of the motif rack to the input of my xp-80 keyboard controller. and with the second midi cable, i plug one end into the output of the keyboard controller to the input of the motif rack. also, with two mono intrument cables, i plug it into the main output of the motif rack into inputs 1 and 2 on the digi 002R. i have also tried the other way around with the midi cables by connecting the input of the motif rack to the output of the xp-80 keyboard controller and vice versa. but it still doesn't seem to make any sound when i play it back. and i did turn local switch off on the keyboard.
the first time i tried the motif was at a friend's studio cause he really liked the sounds of the motif and we hooked it up and it was fine. every track has it's own sound coming out of the motif. (by the way, he's a mac user). so when i try it on a pc i don't know why it just don't work. he also said that on a pc it's 20 times harder; which to me is hard to believe.
i even asked a guy at guitar center for help and i tried everything he said but still didn't make any sounds. for a while i felt like he doesn't even know what he's talking about. he said that because it's midi, it's not going to make any sounds. of course i know midi doesn't make any sounds but the motif has sounds built in it; besides i also plugged two instrument cables from the motif main output to the 002R input to get some sounds.
hey sheet. thanks for replying back so quickly... but i did open an aux track.
ok, maybe i'm not being clear enough about my setup. so this is how i do it. i opened a stereo aux track, a midi track, and i even open an audio track too. i could only play the recorded audio track back and not the midi track although there's notes on the screen. i understand midi has no sounds but how am i supposed to know what i'm recording if i can't hear what i'm doing? i read the manual many times but still can't figure out why it doesn't work. can you explain it to me in detail step by step?
see, the thing about recording directly to audio is that... what if i want to quantize notes? i don't want to have to record every little thing everytime. any other ideas? i really appreciate your replies. hope to hear from you soon again. :D
