Midi Notes Cut Off
Hi,
I'm running Pro Tools 8 on a MacBook Pro w/ an Axiom 49 keyboard. I also use Reason 4 (which works fine!). When I hook up a midi instrument in pro tools, i can hear the sound in my headphones. But, when I record myself, the playback is uniformly cut off as if each note were played staccato. Conversely, when I record with the exact same setup in Reason's sequencer, the playback is totally normal. What would cause the notes to get clipped in pro tools? Here is a screenshot of the clipped off notes : http://img.skitch.com/20090129-fs5ih...93bp3wfpn3.jpg As you can see, the front of each note has been chopped off. Thoughts, anyone? |

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
I'm having this problem as well with pro tools 8 after upgrading from 7.4 - the input filter isn't set to omit anything, but what I am playing (on my axiom 49 through any instrument I use) and hearing during recording is not what it captures apparently. The front side of the notes is clipped and the sound is staccato just like the previous poster. I've dug through the preferences and setup dialogs and am stumped. Hellllpp...

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
So I disabled machine control (thus disabling the transport control from the axiom 49) in peripherals and now notes are recording just fine.
But that is a drag, having that transport control at hand when sitting at the keyboard is great - I followed instructions specifically at http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?...0&itemid=33769 - anyone know what's up with this? |

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
This fix also worked for me. Can someone explain why machine control is killing my midi notes? I rather enjoy being able to press play/stop/record/use sliders/etc.

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
Yeah my problems returned as well.
I followed the advice in the video and that worked and then stopped working. Now I've gotten it to work by switching it off program 15 (I put it on 10). So it appears that for the time being machine control is a buzzkill, and that using predefined and channel 1 of the axiom as the default thru instrument assures I can use it for note input at least without problem. I'm sure digi will patch this so we can get back to machine control. |

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
Working for me now by doing this:
In peripherals, instead of using the machine control tab, go into midi controllers. Select the 'm-audio keyboard' under type and used port 1 on the device for sends to and receives from. And then use program 20 on the axiom. Transport works fine and there isn't any wackiness when recording midi. |

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
This is what worked for me, though Im using MIDI not usb
Keep your Midi Through Any First Selected Track Enabled... Enable 'Midi Thru' And Change the Midi Channel of your Controller. Your Input Channel should automaticcally apply notes to your selection If your on the same Midi Ch on your Tx device then a midi loop is introduced so - Make sure yourTx channel is different than the channel your recording to Also check your USB controllers internal;ll thru setting and make sure its disabled (is that even possible on a non midi port USB device?) michae myspace.com/miekwavesoundlab |

Re: Midi Notes Cut Off
Hi,
I had this problem and was able to fix it by quantizing the front and back of my notes. I drew the notes in by hand so I guess they didnt automatically quantize 100% upon input. Hope this helps :) |
