Title: vArranger set-up issue
Post by: lazman on October 16, 2014, 11:33:28 PM
Hello everyone,

I am new to the vArranger family and I have been loving it so far! I however have one concern for which I would be grateful for a solution.

I run vArranger using the ketron sd4 as sound module and a nektar panorama p6 as controller. The software itself is run on my surface Pro tablet.

When I select voices, I keep hearing a piano sound in the background, that ranges over the full keyboard. I turned all right hand volumes to zero, but I keep hearing this piano sound. I'm wondering what to do next, to get this sound off.

Thanks again for your help.

Have you set up a split point?
Just a thought ???

Yes I have a split point on C3. When I trigger chords with  the left hand,  I keep hearing the piano sound in the background even though I have synthetic strings as my left sound.  Likewise with the right hand sound,  I may have trumpets and strings but I still get a piano sound in the background.

On the far right of the display, what instruments are showing in the "Right" and "Left" sliders showing?

Your keyboard is a piano ?
If yes, it is plug on the sono and you hear the sound of this instrument, turn off the volume or turn the local control off.

Thanks, Ovation99 and Lylo for the helpful tips.

I am actually using the Nectar Panorama P6, which is a midi controller. I have managed to take off the piano sound, but then, I now hear the right hand voice, spanning over the entire keyboard, even when I have a split point set at C3 as well as the Full Keyboard Option disabled. I am wondering whether the problem is from my midi controller, varranger program or the ketron sd4. I'm confused.

Problem solved! It was all based on my connections. Initially, I had a midi cable running from the Nectar Panorama midi controller into the MIDI in 1 of the Ketron sd4 and a USB connection from the Ketron sd4 into the computer.

I then decided eliminate the midi from nectar panorama to the ketron sd4 and use a usb cable from the nectar panorama straight to the computer. It worked like a charm!

No more issues at all!
