CC 11 and CC 7 with Vienna Ensemble

[Cyril Blanc]

Hello

I am a new user with VSL

Being a QLSO/K2/Logic user we had to convert CC 7 (Volume) to CC 11 (Expression); do you have to do that too with Vienna Ensemble ?

I have to add that I use VE in standalone, Logic sends Midi thru IAC
Thanks in advance for your help

I'm sure that some Logic users will chime in with details, but basically you can do what you like with VE. The snag is that with Logic you can't. With a multitimbral sample player Logic can't split the Volume (CC7) information up per MIDI channel, so many users use Expression instead. There is a way of using both, but that is beyond my expertise, as I don't use Logic.

DG is correct. I get around this by assigning Volume to a different, unused CC in every instrument within VE.

Why Logic can't fix this issue is completely beyond me. How is it that a modern, popular sequencer has such an enormous flaw?? Very frustrating.

If you have a VE and you use IAC to control it you dont have the CC 7 problem !

I thing I dont understand is why the VE does not show the volume changes !

Does the VE has 2 volume ? 3 volumes !!!!
