record vsti program changes in classic buzz

Post by mmelon »

Hi,

Just a quick question about the old version of buzz i still like to use. I use polac vsti to drive some other synths using a midi drum sequencer and step machin midi sequencer. Is there a way to change vsti programs on the fly and have it recorded in a buzz pattern?

I have tried peer control and whilst it can target the program global parameter, moving the slider doesn't step through the programs. Some sort of range issue i think. I've also tried peer state but that can't snapshot pvsti programs.

Thanks for any input,
Mike

ok i've got it working. i'm using mocon drumseq from dunk @ smart electronix

it's simple and cool.

Set that to control whatever vsti you want.

Then set a peerctrl to control the program slider of that PVSTI. On mine, every right arrow from zero fires the next pattern.

Finally set a peerstate to snapshot the values of the peerctrl affecting mocon. Basically 16 midi keys can jam through 16 patterns of the mocon sequencer live. You can record it all into a peer state pattern.

Forgot how cool and flexible buzz was.
