Posted February 29, 20205 yr I just tried the microtuning function in version 2.0 and it's briliant. But I get this message from the listener: "Instrument "synth-moog" used the MIDI Tuning System for microtones. To use Pitch-Bend instead would require at least 2 ports." Where can I find documentation to use the microtonal midi output in Logic and/or in Kontakt, if it's possible, to control my virtual instruments ? Thanks Alain
February 29, 20205 yr Opusmodus microtonal system supports MTS (MIDI Tuning Standard) and Pitch-Bend via Ports. MIDI Tuning Standard (MTS) is a specification of precise musical pitch agreed to by the MIDI Manufacturers Association in the MIDI protocol. MTS allows for both a bulk tuning dump message, giving a tuning for each of 128 notes, and a tuning message for individual notes as they are played. The Virtual Instrument that support MTS: Vienna Instruments, Pianoteq, possibly few more.Sadly 'Native Instruments' is not one of them. An quarter-tone example To use Pitch-Bend instead of MTS would require at least 2 ports. (def-score quarter-tone (:key-signature 'chromatic :tempo '(q 60) :time-signature '(4 4)) (inst1 :omn '(s c4 c4+ c4+ c4+ cs4 cs4+ cs4+ cs4+ d4 d4+ d4+ d4+ eb4 eb4+ eb4+ eb4+ e4) :channel 1 :sound 'gm :program 0 :port '(0 1) ) ) In your DAW you need set 2 ports for each channel (same instrument). An eighth-tone example To use Pitch-Bend instead of MTS would require at least 4 ports. (def-score eighth-tone (:key-signature 'chromatic :tempo '(q 60) :time-signature '(4 4)) (inst1 :omn '(s c4 c4+. c4+ c4+.. cs4 cs4+. cs4+ cs4+.. d4 d4+. d4+ d4+.. eb4 eb4+. eb4+ eb4+.. e4) :channel 1 :sound 'gm :program 0 :port '(0 1 2 3) ) ) In your DAW you need to set 4 ports for each channel (same instrument). MTS example If your instrument support MTS then you use single port, as usual. (def-score eighth-mts (:key-signature 'chromatic :tempo '(q 60) :time-signature '(4 4)) (inst1 :omn '(s c4 c4+. c4+ c4+.. cs4 cs4+. cs4+ cs4+.. d4 d4+. d4+ d4+.. eb4 eb4+. eb4+ eb4+.. e4) :channel 1 :sound 'gm :program 0 :port 0 ) ) The internal GM dose not need any specific setup.
