vArranger Forums

Hello eallan,

Every button on the Streamdeck can be programmed to send a different Keystroke, this simulate a press on a A-Z letter on the PC-Keyboard.
With these Keystrokes you can control vArranger.

Regards.

Hallo Dietmar,

Ohne Abbruch an das Wersinus VST zu stellen....., ich bin immer zurückhaltend wenn viel Hall 'beigemischt' wird.
Man hört ein Überfulle wobei der eigentliche Sound im hintergrund kommt, wie gut der auch ist.
Nicht jeder Orgelsound wird in der 'Halle des Bergkönigs' gespielt.
Ein teil Demo mit normale Hallanteil wurde noch mehr überzeugen.
Ist eben Geschmackssache.
Ich freue mich jedoch dass es noch diese VST's gibt, denn mein OX7 wird auch mal sein Lebensende erreichen.

Grüß, Rudi.

Streamdeck is working perfect for me. 

Hallo KeyDi,

Das hört sich wegen übertrieben Hall grottenschlecht an ......

Grüß.

Hello,

Next month is coming my third automatic annual payment for ........ Nothing !

Thanks for answer !

I'm very excited. My third contribution is also soon coming  .

Hello Dan,

QuoteNote that the KORG guitar mode tracks are for now muted, but one day, I will decode them

Does this mean we have to wait another long time for the new vArranger-version ?

Regards !

Okay, Thanks ! 

Hello Dan,

I always use a minimal as possible Reverb on the Bassdrum-Sound. But if I change the EQ-settings of the Drumtrack, there comes full Reverb on every Drumsound and i can't turn it off anymore. Can i change this, because i want the Bass dry.

Regards !

Das kann ich nur zustimmen. Der neue Genos-Soundbank v2 ist wirklich spitze. Etwas besseres wird mann kaum finden.
Und wenn, dann sicher nicht im VST-Bereich. Ich kenne im jeden Fall kein VST-Instrument welche mit Programchanges kompatibel ist an Genos.
Oder mann erstellt selber ein VST-Soundliste, was sehr mühsam wäre.

Für Manualsounds ist VST mehr geeignet, insofern die Sounds ohne Latenz geladen werden.

MfG.

Du vielleicht nicht, für anderen bestimmt !

Unbedingt !!! 

Black-oder-Rot-Box, Rot-oder-Black-OX7, eigentlich kommt es nur drauf an mit ein elegante Lösung sich für annehmbares Geld ein gut-klingendes Key zu beschaffen.
vArranger macht's möglich eigene Soundvorstellungen zu realisieren und sogar stetig aktuell zu bleiben.
Mal sehen wie lange überteuerte Geräte mithalten .....

Das OX7-'pimping' ist ein eigenes Projekt, damit es ein bisschen passend zu der voll-programmierbaren 'Ferrari-Jamkey  ' ist.
Ziel ist mit das ganze ein Doppelkeyboard zu bauen unter bedingung:
1) Mobil, deswegen auch der Flightcase-bau.
2) Realtime Orgel-bedienung. Dazu steuert das linker Knopfpanel alles was VB3 II anbelangt, mit rechter Knopfpanel ist alles für OX7 auf dem Spieltisch.
    Alle Zugriegel dienen für beide VB3 und OX7 simultan.
3) Ein separaten Musik-PC, Win 10-64bit, (in roten Flightcase), kann an jeden beliebigen Midi-fähiges Keyboard 'gehängt' werden. (Vergleichbar mit OAS EX-1 Expander von Wersi)
    vArranger auf dem Touchdisplay mit Streamdeck Accompaniment-steuerung bringt die Style- und Sound- Möglichkeiten auch auf 'Ferrari'-Niveau.
4) Ohne Basspedal, soll ja Keyboard bleiben.
5) Wichtig !!!, Nicht ein halbes Vermögen kosten.

Als Nachteil stellt sich nur die verkabelung aber das nehme ich gerne dazu. Mit ein bisschen Übung baut man alles in 1-2-3 gezwind wieder auf.
Und das OAS-Orgel steht seitdem fast ungenutzt noch da.......
Ich bevorzuge jetzt mein 'Ultimatives'.

Grüß !

Ich bin vom OX7 immer noch sehr begeistert. Der liefert unschlagbar Wersi-sinus-sound. Auch seinen Rotorsound finde ich voll in Ordnung, ist aber nicht Hammond.
Für Hammond-sound ist dann VST VB3 II zuständig. Beide werden mittels vArranger gespielt mit Zugriegel-einsatz vom Jamkey.
Kann einfach meine Finger nicht davon weghalten ..... 

Grüß,
Jamkey.

Hello,

Quote...... the sound module has a problem and does not play in the correct octave...

That's definitely the problem with the Genos-Soundbank. 

Regards !

Thanks Magali,

We are waiting for it very patient.
Meanwhile, stay healthy !

Regards !

Hello,

QuoteIn the version being evaluated this octave problem has been fixed. Don't worry, the bad octaves will all be fixed
in the future when cases are identified.

Please let me know about when these Failures are solved.
I bought that soundspack 6 months ago and i am still waiting for a usuable version.

Regards !

Hello,

Attention !! Many Sounds in the GENOS-Soundbank are unusable because of the wrong octave-programming.

Regards.

Hello,

https://www.varranger.com/wiki/index.php?title=5.1._WINDOWS_PROGRAM#CONTROLLERS

Most of all functions are controllable with extern commands.
So the Singular Midi Maestro can send Midi-data to control the v-Arranger.

BTW......, this Singular Midi Maestro is a very nice piece of midi-controller-gear !!

Regards,
Jamkey.

Hallo Achim,

QuoteKann ich die track volumen Regler auch für VST Instrumente benutzen?

Das funktioniert perfekt !

MfG.

I respect the many work about soundprogramming from Magali and Dan, no misunderstanding !
But sounds programmed 1 octave to high makes the styles sound comical.
It's not only the Organsounds, like someone already encoutered in this topic:
https://www.varranger.com/vforum/index.php/topic,4040.0.html
In the last reply, Woge 1000 wrote

QuoteHier fiel mir dann besonders auf, Sounds die ich Midi1 und Midi2 anwähle, die GM2 Sounds sind alle 1 Oktave höher.

I'll be patient till a new version is coming, please Dan and Magali, can you inform us if it is ready ?

Regards, Jamkey.

Almost all of the sounds, excepted the Drumsets and Mega-Voices.
Please do the job again with the correct octave-settings !!
I'll payed for something unusable !!

Who wrote here "absolutely recommended!" ??

Hello,
I am not satisfied with some of the sounds in the new Genos-soundbank.
Many sounds are programmed with wrong octave-settings.
For example : 8-32-29 WhiterBarsJS and 104-0-17 WhiterbarsFast.
Listen to the Demo https://www.varranger.com/audio/genos.mp3  at 2:52 Organ ChaCha, 8:01 Organ Bossa, 11:36 JazzOrganBallad.
All the Rotarychanges Slow/fast sounds terrible because the Fast-variation is one octave higher than the Slow-variation.
Also 0-110-17 RotarySwitch
       0-111-16 EvenBars
       0-111-17 HolditFast
       0-126-17 JazzSlow
       0-127-17 JazzFast
       ..... many other Organsounds .....
Please listen to the Intro of Style 6-8 SoulBallad. the WhiterbarsFast sounds creepy like a mosquito because 1 octave to high.
And at the end of the demo you hear the French Musette and French Waltz with a Musette-Accordion 1 octave to high.
Also listen to AlpenBallad 2, the Timpani in the percussiontrack, is this a joke or something ?

Generally, to play the Genossounds on the Manuals, i must change the Sound-edit settings of the octave -1, sometimes -2.

Dan, can you check this please ?
Regards !

Today i have make some tests with the cmd-command.
It works much faster if i run the cmd.exe in the background and type the commands
with keystroke-strings.
Every Streamdeck-button can send a different keystroke-string, automatic followed by ENTER.

Best Regards !

@ DARIUS,
I have tryed your suggestion about Sendmidi.exe, many thanks for that Tip.
I couppled a Streamdeck-button with batch-file with commando:

QuoteSTART C:\Sendmidi\sendmidi.exe dev LoopMIDI ch 16 on 60 64

So wenn i push the Streamdeck-button Sendmidi.exe generate a note-on C4, Vel 64, so far so good.
The Batch-file is executed IMMEDIATLY, but it takes 1,5 seconds before the C4-note is generated....

Any suggestion why it takes so long ?

Best Regards !

Only a FAQ-list on there website ....
Otherwise Phone to Amerika.

Yes !

Hello,
Today, after 3 days of searching and trying  , i found a solution.
vArr doesn't see the Streamdesk-keystrokes because the vArr-GUI is always highlighted after each Mouse- or Touchclick.
I resized the vArr-GUI a little bit, just that much till the Win-Taskbar is visible under  the vArr-GUI.
Now, after a click on the taskbar vArr isn't highlighted anymore and recieved the Streamdesk-keystrokes.
Only one negativ thing......, after each Mouse- or Touchclick in the vArr-GUI you have to click on the taskbar again so vArr isn't highlighted anymore.

Maybe Dan can find a solution for that "Highlight"-issue ??

Best Regards, Jamkey.
(finally playing music again  )

I am searching for a solution.
But anyway, thanks for your attention !

Best Regards,
Jamkey.

Hello Dan,

I configured the Stream Deck with their program and this program stay's launching in the background, as required.
For example the azerty alphabetic characters are programmed in 6 Stream Deck keys.
When i open the Windows Notepad-app, i can type these azerty characters in Notepad with the Stream Deck keys.
So i am surely this Stream Deck device works fine in my Windows 10-64bit.
But when i open the vArranger-controllerlist there is no reaction at all when i press one of the Stream Deck keys.
vArranger doesn't recognize any Stream Deck action.

Best Regards!

Hello dear Forum-members,

Today I recieved this Elgato stream deck.
It works very genial in all my Windows-Applications but NOT in vArranger.

I can control every item in the Controllerlist with my normal USB-PC-keyboard, but vArr. doesn't see this Stream Deck.
No reactions at all ......

Regards.

Okay Dan,

This is great news!

QuoteI will automatically convert to the new curve.
Exp : 10 > 57    15 > 68   90 >118

Perfekt! While with the actual Linear Curve, 10 to 15 is much to loud for a MP3 with normalized volume.

Thanks ! and best regards,

Hello Dan,
By SAVE SONG, the volumeslider 'Style' is not saved wenn an MP3 is loaded.
I have to to manually set the range very low (between 10-15) because MP3 are playing much to loud.
But once i set the range, every MP3 song takes this value.

Best Regards!

Hello,

QuoteYes the SONG volume is saved with the SAVE SONG. no??

After a new vArr-start, the volume of MP3-file is always 90.
I have to manualy change the volume-slider 'Style' to a very, very low range between 10 and 15 for an acceptable volume.
(More than 15 is distroiing my speakers.)
But once i have changed the volume to 10 - 15 , every MP3 song takes these value.

Wenn saving a MP3 song, there is no option 'Arranger Section'.

Best Regards.

Hello,

I know about these option, but perhaps there is a setting in vArr or Windows to change the MP3-volume
without changing the MP3 itself ......
Anyway, thanks ! I try your option wenn nothing else is possible.

Regards !

Hello,

My MP3-songs playing much to loud. I have to decrease the Style-Volume-Slider to 10-15 for an acceptable Volume.
Normally, the Styles are playing with Volume 100 wich is perfect for me, but only a MP3 plays to loud.
It also not recalled wenn I save a Song with MP3 .....
Can I change something to minimize the MP3-Volume ?

Thanks for help .....
Regards !

Hello,

QuoteFor VST Instruments it will be realy the best choice to implement "Recall of presets with Song or/and Sound".

Magnific !!

Regards.

Hello Dan,

Hypersonic, Halionsonic and Halion have so called 'Quick Control' buttons to change important parameters for the selected sound.
These Quick Control Buttons can learn a midi-CC.
The Quick Controls in the Drumsounds, for example, are destinated to the volumes of each drumgroup (bassdrum, snares, hihats, .....) identical like the Drum-mixer-knobs.
It would be magnific to control these drumgroup-volumes with the drum-mixer for every separate Accompaniment-Style in the same way as for the SD2, SD1000, or vArr-synt.

Maybe, this function is possible or can be implemented .....

Best Regards !

Hello,

Does the Drum-mixer only works with the SD 2?
I want to use it also with my VST-drums.

Regards, Rudi.

Hello Dan,
Please also send me the new Version 1.19.
Many Thanks, Best Regards !!

[OK]

Okay, thanks for answer !
Best Regards !!

Hello,

@ sweetbb :
I see that you are using B4 II as VSTinstrument.
Please can you tell me how to activate the B4 II on a 64-bit Windows?
I try several times to activate on my Windows 10, and the NI Service Center says "B4 II Activated"
But every time  the B4 II starts in Demo-mode. Very frustrating, as NI don't gives support anymore for this problem.

Thanks !!

Okay, Thanks Agaton.
I take a look at this VST-chainer.

Regards !

Hello,
Why does the MP3-files always play thru vArr and not thru Windows Media Player?
Can i change this?

Regards,
Rudi.

Hello Dan,
Indeed, but I don't like the Reverb in new VB3-II-Organ, it's sounds to mechanical and "Old School" to me.
So i want to try a "digital" Reverb in the Signal-Output.
But with only 1 ASIO-channel all the vArr-tracks becomes these digital Reverb.

Ojee ...
I wanted separate Output for the VST-section, because unfortunate i can't get Reverb on it.

Hello to all, and specially to Dan,

I use the vArr2 in a DAW with an ASIO sound card with multiples audio outputs.
All these (4) stereo-audio-channels are listed in the second sub list in MIDI-PORTS-page, but it seems i can't use them all.
I want 2 separate channels, 1 for the vArr-Synth and 1 for the VST. How can i fix this ?

Thanks in advance,
Regards, Rudi.

Hello Dan,
Thanks for this fantastic funktion !
It's working very properly, not only with INS-files but also with VST-soundlists.
Best Regards,
Rudi.

Hi Dan,
please can you send me this new Beta-version. Very interresting for me, as I use vArranger with Hypersonic2-INS.

Best regards, and Thanks !

No LED Feedback, because the Panels controls another Organ, the SonicCore B2003.

Hallo,
Ich benutze mit voller Zufriedenheit das Jamkey.

Hallo Werner,

Nachdem ich jetzt komplett umgestiegen bin auf VA2 mit Win 10-64bit hatte ich endlich mal Gelegenheit mich weiter
mit VA2 in verbindung mit V3-sonority zu beschäftigen.
Dieses Soundkästchen ist wirklich der Hammer !
Habe sogar ohne INS-File Zugang auf alle Ergänzungssoundbänken.
So mache ich Das:
Zuerst einen GM-sound auf Right 1 selektieren.
Anschließend rechtsklicken auf Right 1 wobei sich das Fenster "Sound edit" öffnet.
In dieses Fenster kann man einen Bank-Change und Programmchange wahlen, so gelangt man auf die Ergänzungssoundbänken.
Jetzt nur noch Sound speichern ....... und siege da, der Sound erscheint im VA2 als User-Sound mit den gewünschten Bank- und Programchange.

MfG., Rudi.

Hallo Werner,

Seit kurzem verbleibe ich in der Tat dauernd im Allgäu, Deutschland. 

Das V3-Modul habe ich bis jetzt nur an der Wersi Scala im Einsatz, aber nur testweise
da Dies nicht der Absicht ist. Obwohl es für das Orgel auch ein Bereicherung sei.
Da ich vor 2 Monaten auch das Jamkey gekauft habe, zwecks bedienung von VSTi's, wäre der nächste
Schritt logisch ....... mittels vArranger zu einen komfortabel spielbare Konfiguration zu kommen.
Mit INS-files habe ich mich noch nicht beschäftigt, dafür ist die Materie noch unbekannt. Aber zum ansteuern des
V3 sollte ich mich später doch bemühen.
Ich warte noch auf der Downloadlink, erst nachdem kann ich vArr installieren und mit der Konfiguration anfangen.
Bis ich da Alles so ein bisschen unter der Knie habe dauert die ganze INS-geschichte noch etwas.

MfG., Rudi.

Hello to this Forum !

I am a fresh new member, Organplayer, age 55 with 35 Years Wersi-playing.
Today i bought the vArranger, i hope this makes me happy with lot's of musictime.

Like my nickname tell's, I want to use the vArranger with my Orla Jamkey Master-Organ-Keyboard combined
with NI B4 OrganVSTi and a V3-Sonority Soundmodule. That seems to me a perfekt combination.
However, i know there's a lot of configuration first. I am very thankfull with any help from this Forum.

A few hours ago i registered the USB-stick, and now i'm waiting for a downloadlink.

Best Regards to All,
Rudi
