    Hello,

    Does VI Pro accept the standard panning from CC10?  Or is it ignored?

    Thanks,

    No, this won't work.

    There is a devious way to get VI Pro to pan with CC10, certainly not conventional panning, but it will work.

     

    Make sure MIR is OFF - it will not work with MIR on

    Put the same patch on slot A and slot B

    unlink the panners, and pan 1a hard left and 1b hard right

    reassign  SLOTX in the  Ctrl Map to CC10 (make sure the curve is linear)

    and there you have panning via MIDI CC10


    it's probably not worth the effort though, as orchestral players tend not to move around the stage when they are playing !

    VI, pro or not, isn't made to pan like for instance Kontakt is.
    In VE Pro, you can make CC10 automate the balance parameter. IE: pan is a property of mixing and that isn't included in the same way in Vienna Instruments. As mentioned, the expectation is not that the performer is moving about onstage.

    Thanks andyjh & civilization 3.

    The reason I was asking is I don't really like the sound of power-pan.

    I can use the normal pan in the mixer console (in VE Pro) but I assmue that can't be automated either?

    The balance slider can, via MIDI CC or Host Automation.

    The balance slider in VE Pro ... under the VE Pro power pan?  How can that be automated?

    Yeah, that horizontal slider.

    For instance, for CC10 just do this:

    I should have specified I am using VE Pro 4 ... do I need VE Pro 5 to call up the menu in your image?

    Cheers.

    Oh. I think the automation mapping was introduced with VE Pro 5.

    Ok - thanks for your help.  Time to upgrade I guess...
