Do not understand the point of layout mode...

I'm afraid it will make me look like an idiot, but... I just don't, so well, I'm missing something.

Here's my situation: I have two USB MIDI devices connected to my computer, an edrum with 8 pads and a keyboard 25 keys, touch 16 and a bunch of buttons. Both devices allow me to completely configure the MIDI channel, note, the key pads, etc. and so on.

So, ok, in my APPLICATION I plug just those, create a track for each instrument, I want to play, say each track to listen to a particular channel for a particular instrument, and I'm all set. The keys on the keyboard go to the channel where the synth plugin is listening, keyboard on another channel where a sampler is listening, and keys edrum go to a third channel where Superior Drummer is listening, etc. My edrums me has even let press a button to change between "kits", altering what channel/notes sends each pad, so I can load up, say, multiple instances of Superior Drummer and switch between them on the fly. Large.

MainStage has much latency better than my DAW, so I'm trying to switch, but after searching around here, and by reading the manual (where the "Connecting MIDI instruments" section is literally just a diagram showing how to connect a MIDI cable and nothing else), I still feel stuck. It seems that I have to start by loading a concert (either drums or keyboards, but not two and no option for a clean slate), then shove a virtual representation of one of my instruments has not been included in the concert I have loaded and then link each individual pad notes not only a unit, not just a channel, but a specific (ditto the high/low notes on the keyboard).

Why am associating notes with pictures of the pads when the whole point is that the notes are generated by the real thing?

Why can't just say 'send some signals come from channel 1 device edrum to this plugin', and so on?

Why am I spent the time to mount images of a keyboard and 24 portions on my screen (surprisingly difficult) when all I care gets ratings generated by a physical device to sounds generated by a plugin?

Why this strange intermediaries?

I know that mainstage is very well regarded by people who know more about this kind of things I do, so what I'm missing here? If I use the wrong tool for what I want to do, any suggestions for what I should try instead?

If I understand the situation, all you really need to do is get rid of any control layout, you don't want, create the MIDI activity 2 monitors (1 for the keyboard, the other the drumpads), assign entries noon then label 2 devices for clarity.

In edit mode, just do as you describe: assign one controls the activity of MIDI to a particular slice.

    Hi dove2k,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    You will need to enable the touchpad on the laptop itself.

    Find the area of the touch pad, you will find a button to enable or disable the touchpad.

    If the step above doesn't, try this step.

    Go to control panel > mouse > device settings tab
    Click (or to disable)

    Notes:
    On some models, there is a keyboard shortcut to enable or disable the touchpad. For example, ACER, just do Fn + F7.
    You can click on Reset device if none of these solutions work.

    If you still can't touch pad to work, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer for more information.

  • VLAN real PowerConnect base for beginner who does not understand the trunks etc.

    I have several switches Dell powerconnect 3548 and 5548 deployed on my network to install multi that I'm managing their individual DNS names.  now, I've added a voip phone system that works on my network, but to a range of ip addresses completely different to another server.  So, I want all my switches divided into 2 VLANS.  The basic vlan 1 will always manage the switches and all ports and the vlan voip will have its own set of ports on the second VLAN.

    There is no visibility between the VLAN, just different IP addresses different server DHCPd, s so if your clogged in the vlan 1 are you a PC/printer/etc with your own default gateways defined by the field.  If you are connected to one vlan 10 you are a phone and you will get your information from an edgemark server somewhere else.

    so step by step (if you want to give me even better orders) I have actually need it to configure to create a vlan separate and independent who will seek dhcp by an existing voip to its home network device to, while I can still manage my management ip switches.  I understand not all the vocabulary of trunking and I don't know if it needs anything else including marking, because are is all autonomous.  I guess I need a guid for Dummies at vlanning powerconnects.

    VLAN datbase

  • I do not understand the information on my graphics

    Hi all

    In fact I do not understand that it means everything, it says that I have
      

    1204 MB total available graphics memory

    128 MB dedicated graphics memory
    0 MB dedicated system memory
    1076 MB shared system memory
    What is the actual information on my graphics memory? What is 128 MB or 1 GB
    If its 128 MB is not why I use total memory available as shown above?
    And if the 1 GB graphics, why I can't run games of good quality?
    Above is the real screenshot of information

    [EDIT: post your complete specifications at the beginning is always useful-]
    I see now that there may be different versions of the Acer Aspire V32-471, and some of them have
    a dedicated graphics card and a respectable card to this (see the link at the bottom of page) - GT 640 M 2 GB apparently.
    If yours is one of them you probably have not activated the card.
    Read your user manual to learn how to configure the machine automatically (or manually
    If applicable) switch between HD4000 and the dedicated card. ]

    "Don't tell my computer cannot be upgraded.
    -Even laptops that come with a graphics card are not usually extensible, and
    When they are, it is not economically viable because of the cost of the upgrade card.
    [ EDIT 2: the only kind of notebook computers in which you can upgrade graphic is are those who use MXM cards.]
    Even in this case, it may be difficult to get a card that has a fit right, so for all purposes useful
    a laptop is not extensible. ]

    As you have an integrated graphics Intel HD4000. This is not a graphics card. HD4000 is
    a form or the integrated graphics card. In this case, it it is not part of the cpu.  Older integrated graphics have been
    in the form of a chip on the motherboard
    A dedicated (as a separate card that attaches to the moterboard) graphics card uses what is called
    VRAM which is a real dedicated graphics memory.

    Acer has apparently allocated a fixed amount of RAM to (dedicated), while allowing up to 1 GB be accessible 'dynamic' held by a game or other software that uses the HD4000.
    So in this case the extra 896 MB of system RAM in this case would be called "shared" RAM
    As long as you're not multitasking while games the HD4000 should be able to access any
    full 1 GB of RAM.

    Laptops are configured differently to PC and they have different methods between mfg
    Some have a software that allows you to change the amount of RAM allocated to the integrated graphics card.
    and some may have an option in the BIOS, as does my PC to allocated different amounts of RAM to
    the HD4000 graphics.

    However, as others have mentioned, the HD4000 has limited capacity vs a high mid range
    graphics card.  It is one of the best onboard graphics at this time (recently after having been replaced
    with Intels new cpu), but it is still limited.
    If you had to be able to book or devote more RAM graphics system he probably wouldn't
    improve performance much to the resolution you are using.

    A few points for your graphics below - note that there is a small difference in
    different between laptop frame rate makes and models.

  • I have reset firefox and now everything is sitting on my desk. I want to again on my firefox profile, but I do not understand the directions on how to do it.

    Reset did not say I would lose everything--it seemed that most would still be preserved. I do not understand about the creation of the new profile, and copy everything on it. Is there an easier way to do this? I tried to restore my computer hoping that would bring back how it was, but that didn't work. I'm not an expert in computer so need baby steps on it.

  • On Satellite A200 error message: could not open the ACPI ATK0100 Kernel Mode driver

    Hello

    I have laptop Satellite A200
    When I run the windows (vista) I get the following error: * 'Can t open ACPI ATK0100 Kernel Mode Driver.*'!
    I installed all the drivers and the error remains.
    I installed all the drivers on the Toshiba site, but the problem persists.
    The Device Manager shows me that each device is working properly.

    Someone at - it a solution?

    Thank you

    ACPI is the installation of your Windows operating system power management. If this fails you may need to run a recovery system on your computer. You can do this with the hidden partition on your hard drive, but this will erase all data on your machine. If this does not resolve the problem, you may consider making your hard drive, checked bad sectors, as this may have failed.

    I hope this helps. :)

  • Function editor does not support the pointer to the digital type

    Am I missing something or is it true that the CVI function Panel Editor does not support specifying a type parameter as a pointer of type number?

    I see no reason why he wouldn't or shouldn't.  It supports the pointer to char.  And it supports a table name (which, in C, is a pointer to the first element of the array).

    I guess I could use the array form as a pointer, but surely it's confusing when dealing with a simple pointer to a numeric scalar type.

    I am using the function Panel Editor only for the purpose of creating a dictionary of type so I can call functions DLL in VB.  Y at - he know somewhere how CVI types could are mapped to the VB types when you use the type dictionary?   for example, what happens if I use an unsigned int in a function parameter (VB does not support unsigned integers)?

    Menchar

    Hi Menchar,

    To create a pointer to an integer as a parameter to a function panel, you have two different options.

    First of all, all output parameters are defined as the default pointers.  So if you create an output parameter of type "int", he creates a ' int *' parameter.

    Second, if you want it to appear in the entry list, you can create a data type in CVI which will appear at the bottom of the list.  Data types to change your data types, go to the Options"(you must have a function Editor tab open and selected Panel to make this option available).  Enter the name of the type (in this case ' int * ') and click the Add button.  The new "int *" option should now appear at the bottom of the list.

    Third, you can use the array form (int []), but as you say, which can be confusing for other people looking at the code.  Or the other of the two first options are better choices.

    As for your second question, here's a link to a page MSDN showing types in Visual Basic and their representations .NET: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/47zceaw7 (VS.80) .aspx.  This allows to make a comparison between VB and ANSI C data types.  For example, to ask on unsigned integers, and this site shows that Visual Basic has an Integer type (-2,147,483,648 through 2,147,483,64) and an unsigned return, UInteger (between 0 and 4 294 967 295).  From what I can tell, VB has signed versions of all its digital representations.  You can then take this with a list of ANSI C data types to convert between the two.  A list of ANSI C data types can be found here: http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/c-language/c-programming-language-data-types.html

    I have a client and I have trouble explaining a question related to the objective of the SPs. Any comment is appreciated.

    The customer has a computer that runs an application with SP2 and creates a file on this computer. Then send the file
    a user to overseas using a computer with SP1. The user overseas to have problems with the file,
    try with another computer SP2 and everything is OK.
    I told the customer that the problem may be something in the file and it is not related to the compatibility of the SP1 - SP2. He
    insists that SP2 must be compatible with SP1. I tried to explain, Ms is not a new version, it corrects bugs etc...
    and we never talk about compatibility between SPs. SPs are not meant to create problems, it's to solve problems.
    I won't give the name of the application because it can see the post. He has now decided to roll all the computers
    back to SP1 I don't aggree with him.

    What do you think?

    Thank you.

    I think that the customer is a fool, and you need to stop doing business with him if he does not understand or accept what you say. Make sure he knows its computers run a serious security risk, and operational risk, and some programs may not work without the latest service packs, and it will be very expensive to repair.

  • BIOS Inspiron 2305 does not detect the drive in ahci mode

    The hard drive in my Inspiron one 2305 crushed and I tried to install a 500 GB Seagate Barracuda drive.

    The Bios does not detect the drive. I noticed that the SATA in the BIOS mode option has been put on AHCI. I changed the ATA mode and the BIOS has detected the drive.

    However when I try to install a clean version of Windows 7 (Dell OEM disc), to halfway to the installation Setup will fail. I noticed that the reason why it will fail, is that the installation process now does not see the hard drive.

    Can someone tell me what steps to take to do the installation?

  • I do not understand the structure of files in lightroom

    I use ligtroom for a little while now, and I never really took the time to try to understand the structure of files in lightroom. Looking at it now, I'm totally confused.

    I'm on vacation and take tons of pictures and their import to my laptop (and an external hard drive).

    Since my trip is coming to an end, I'm wondering how to transfer all these catalogs to my office when I get home. Without messing up all the files that are already there.

    So I start looking at my Lightroom folders in my documents, and I like lightroom 6 6 develop records, 2 6 lightroom develop files previews.irdata, which I am unable to open and have no idea what is in them.

    And I have a folder on my desktop called new lightroom 6, which has a file called lightroom 6 in which has all my latest pix.

    How to consolidate this mess when I know not what is half of the files because I can't open most of them?

    Small question is - how to get catalogs and collections of my computer laptop lightroom app to my desktop lightroom app?

    Thank you

    Lightroom does not really use a file structure, it's a database.

    The photos must be in a folder somewhere in your operating system, and when you import a photo into Lightroom, the location of the actual folder and file name is entered in the Lightroom database, so now Lightroom knows where your photo.

    Now, I don't know it that all of these folders on your computer that you describe. You'll have to sort this possibility, somehow, perhaps by opening each folder Lightroom (not in your operating system) to see the benefits. Now, when you look in your operating system, you must find all the folders that contain pictures of Lightroom (you just find these files in the previous sentence), as well as the folder that contains your catalog and presets and preferences file. The default locations for these things and instructions to move your installation of Lightroom to another computer, are here: How can I move a computer to a new Lightroom?
