  • Anyone Successfully Selecting VI Pro Matrices By Program Change?

    Due to an interesting suggestion from someone at VI Control, the last couple of days I started working on a new Cubase and VE Pro template. As part of that I am experimenting with using Program Change instead of Keyswitching to select from the list of matrices in a VI Pro instance.

    So far VI Pro is not responding to Program Changes I enter, even though I have set it to respond to them.

    I'm wondering if anyone else is successfully using Program Changes for this purpose in VI Pro. If so, then I would know I must be doing something wrong and keep trying to make it work. If not, I'll probably just go back to keyswitching.

  • You need to use the VST2 version and not VST3. It's the one without three dashes when you select the plugin. And it seems Cubase counts from 1 while VI Pro counts from 0 in program changes. Just a heads up. :)

    Thanks J.Hall, that explains it. Not sure I want to use the VST2 version just to accomodate Program Changes. I can always go back to Keyswitches.
