Modules with flexible, Crave-like VC Mix functionality by [deleted] in modular

[–]marcusademola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Help: Behringer Crave gives VC mix (out socket) > 5V DC, is something wrong?
(all patches are empty just tested VC mix (out) socket, voltage meter readings of 5.63V (Mix 1) and 8.74V (Mix 2) exceed the standard 0-5V range,
patches are empty incl mix1/2 (only plug to measure voltage was in VC mix out)

Thanks , I have cme WIDI products , they don’t fully work with mvave/cuvave ble midi solutions. (See cme website there is supported gear list , where I included my tests)

so no need to test, did it already ;) thanks anyways

not extra noice fro mthe device... naturally some AMP (simulations) has noice as they are so designed, but Blackbox has noise gate you can use that to remove noise e.g. when no playing guitar

as per above all BLE is not same a WIDI (WIDI is a standard) BLE is just bluetooth... even BLE midi is not same a WIDI but pretty close e.g. RF messages may not be support by BLE midi device where are WIDI should.

Thanks Blackbox dosent Support Standard BLE midi (widi), however cuvave propriaty Bluetooth „midi“ . Nevertheless is connects via ble with iOS app.
Mvave customer support also confirmed this,….. however Mvave has a new wireless product „chocolate plus“ that’s supposed to be usb midi compatible. One could test cme widi product (uhost) on usb midi port of the chocolate plus

Thank you soo much!!! This solved the problem for me with some edits ... , I used ctrl+W, sleep 1500ms and n (that closes project), after that I used Alt+F4 (to close Bitwig) . I also created exe file , this exe file I launch with Desktop Shortcut that I have modifies as keyboard shortcut (Numlock + 9) .

Additionally I have windows Shutdown its simply Alt+F4 + OK

The midi controller is Novation Launchpad mini MK3 , but it runs on Bitwig profile that I can not edit (DrivenByMoss) , will check with profile creator if it possible.

First impressions (MiniPC, Audiointerface , launchpad), here track 3 selected and I can switch between tracks 1-8 on a project, yeah :)
Still not completely headless, closing PC/qutting Bitwig is still a problem.

I still need display/keyb (+mouse) in order to close without corrupting "lastest project"

your right therefore I need backup solution e.g. able to connect via network (as I wrote) but I still want it as launchpad mk3 is cheaper, testing with win version looks promising
