Automation

Posted by Anonymous on Wed, 03/06/2013 - 22:13.

I am a solo performer and am looking for a really basic sequencer which will play my backing tracks whilst automating my guitar effects and dmx lights via midi / usb dmx controller. Can this do this?

Cheers

bugs?

system specs:
windows xp
600mhz
16bit soundcard
500megs of ram
enough gigs

nice program especially free, but unfortunately iti doesnt seem to work correctly on my system. I try loading vsts in the program and get strange noises when i try and use them. its like a popping static sound. but, the same vsts when loaded through another sequencer like mulabs works correctly. this occurs when trying to use some samples also(like a snare sound, or a bass drum). the volume is also low on most plugins i try to use, even though ive maanaged to find 4 seperate places to raise the volume (the actual plugin volume, the master channel volume, the the plugin channel volume, and the program volume)

ive tried lowering the audio quality from like 44hz to 22hz, which helped. but i still get audio pops(like bad reverb or echo) and also very low volume. i managed to fix a latency issue with my midi controller, and most of the native vsts work well. any inquiry? pretty nice site here by the way.

Taking a record with my micro from the sound card works well
Please help

Very professional software - I just fiddled a little bit with it - great !! But the named google group can't be found. I would suggest to found a forum with opportunity to share macaw files and hints.
