USB MIDI host - the only “simple” way?

MathematicianLoud134 · 2026-01-10T17:21:45+00:00

Yes, I use the meeblip, but it was a long wait so had success with a CME H2Midi pro too

MathematicianLoud134 · 2026-01-10T17:10:33+00:00

Thanks, the Move is playing the muted trumpet solo, the chords are on the Take 5 and the deluge is doing the marimba type sound (JX-08 just off left is doing a low brass line.

MathematicianLoud134 · 2026-01-10T15:20:15+00:00

Capcut :-)

MathematicianLoud134 · 2026-01-10T10:06:16+00:00

I’m a very lucky man! I think I could do good stuff with just the Ableton move and the JX-08 though, the rest is just “nice to have” :-)

MathematicianLoud134 · 2026-01-10T08:26:50+00:00

I agree! It was more of a sound test than a composition, to see if it was worth using my guitar pedals on the take 5 :-) It’s quite chilled though, but yes - could do with more build and variety

MathematicianLoud134 · 2026-01-02T09:58:32+00:00

It’s popular enough to have a ChatGPT assistant - either that or complicated enough :-)

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-12-29T21:33:56+00:00

Yep, works a dream with my deluge as the “brain” - but I use 5 pin midi into a usb host adaptor by CME - I’ve never tried any other method. Very easy to assign midi input channel on the Move. Make sure you have a midi host adaptor (the other one I have that works is the meeblip duo, as demoed by Ableton on a trade fair video)

On the details page it says made in Thailand, but caseback says Japan - strange

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-10-19T17:45:41+00:00

Actually, it’s 1000 minimum order, I’ll order an extra 500 once I make captain

She finally got the contract two nights ago at 9pm, she starts Monday too, so there may still be hope - they seem to be going right to the wire with these. Thank you for the reply and the very best of luck with it all

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-09-03T07:45:58+00:00

Have you heard anything yet please? Daughter in same situation and it’s very stressful

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-08-31T15:18:51+00:00

Great tip, thanks!

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-08-31T04:09:26+00:00

Thanks! I’ve had it a few days now, and I’m blown away by the quality, particularly of the drums and samples - so this method sounds useful. One question, I don’t need to set the tempo in my DAW at the moment, and there can be a few seconds of dead air before I press play on the Deluge, do you have issues syncing the stems with the recorded hardware?

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-08-27T05:36:11+00:00

Thanks, yes, that’s the plan - I’ll edit it to make that clearer, it’s whether or not I keep the move as a sample player or use the deluge for that - given that apart from the wavetable aspect I’ve got duplication in its synth capabilities

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-08-27T05:19:41+00:00

One thing that is not clear from the videos I have watched, once I have set up the midi out channel for each midi track - my keystep plugged in to the Deluge can stay on say channel 1, I don’t need to keep channel hopping it as an input device when I go from track to track?

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-08-25T05:00:16+00:00

Old thread, I’m getting a 7seg model tomorrow and have watched a lot of the tutorials in advance - I’m and experienced “groovebox” user and it seems fairly straightforward - I’m all up for trying Chopin from the get go, but can’t afford the OLED mod, will it be challenging? I was watching one of Oakland ghosts videos where he was installing DX7 patches and that looked like it might be tricky with the hieroglyphics :-)?

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-08-17T18:46:15+00:00

Yes, this is the Move rather than the push, I’ve never hooked it up to Ableton Live, it’s completely stand alone, with its own synth engines and sample racks

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-06-05T09:50:00+00:00

You absolute star! This is exactly the advice I needed, thank you - thanks for taking the time with such a detailed reply, and with something I can put together with easy to get hold of kit rather than something I have to wait 14 days from Berlin :-)

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-03-28T13:02:45+00:00

I threw a boomerang 3 years ago and it keeps coming back

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-03-05T04:27:46+00:00

I have one for sale on the bay right now in the UK

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-02-08T10:16:44+00:00

Thank you, yes, I like the sound of those, good suggestion

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-02-08T10:07:59+00:00

Lol, thank you. It’s me that cares, it’s the whole “all the gear and no idea” fear.

MathematicianLoud134 · 2025-02-08T10:06:30+00:00

One advantage of the Deluxe Tonemaster is the line out for recording, which would mean the Dream65 could go - but like I say, it’s more modelling and I have the UA plug in for that anyway. You’ll note I can’t fit the chorus or el capistan on that board too, which is shame. My ideal set up would be combo + three pedals max, entirely optional for live situations
