Re: Re: Assigning Midi in Cubas and Kontakt 4 for Z-tar

A person can't really start with a clean Ztar patch because they've all been set up with presets.

Hi..

The above is incorrect..  If you got your Ztar new, it should have 8 x 'kits' and the rest should be empty.. 

If you didn't get it new, then I would initialise all kits and pads and controllers and velocity curves, and start from fresh. 

 Alternatively, initialise a 'kit' and copy it to a few different locations..

Hi Richard,
I m made a video and it's uploading now of how my ztar is set up, how cubase is set up and what Kontakt 4 looks like. In the meantime, in response to your last message for just 2 instruments, you said check first that Cubase is receiving on the correct midi channels. 

O.K. I'll go into the mixer and see if the ladders illuminate for each zone.

I would think that you MUST use more than one channel in Cubase. 

I don't know how to check all Ztar channels are set properly with a GM sound module to see if the channels are set and sending properly.   Ditto for Midi Ox.

A person can't really start with a clean Ztar patch because they've all been set up with presets. You have to go through and tweak everything to be what you want if it isn't already.  I have to go through all the menus. Got it.  I had done that before but maybe that wasn't the problem.

I'll check out the Kontakt 5 forum option if the Ztar and Cubase things are all set up correctly. 

First Ztar, then Cubase, then Kontakt. Next post should be video in about 2 hours when it finishes uploading.
