Problem with soundiver

[gazxl]

Problem with soundiver.

I load presets into bank a, and The little SE appears buts nothing comes through to the virus.

Spent ages last night and still couldn't get it sorted

[Onkel Dunkel]

I never use sounddiver. It has only caused me trouble :? Just do a SysEx-dump from your sequenser.

[Doc Jones]

I agree with Onkel, I gave up trying to use sound diver with my virus c and just use sysex dumps with cubase.

[gazxl]

I KNow what Your Saying,

Here is my settings on the Virus classic Rack. It says sysex checksum error.I dont know its just driving me mad.

settings

Input global
Direct Thru = 1

Input global
Boost =0

Input global
Gain = off

Input global
Phono = off

MidiDump TX
ControllerDump

Midi Dump Rx
Force To Bank A

Midi
Global Channel = 2

Midi
Volume = Enabled

Midi
ProgChange = Enable

Midi
MultiProgChang = Enable

Midi
Device ID = 2

MidiControl
LoPage = Contr

MidiControl
HiPage = SysEx

Settings ON The sound diver
DEvice Id = 2
Thru CH = 2

[xorge]

Try changing the MidiControl to LoPage=SysEx

Double check to make sure you are sending and recieving on the correct ports and channels.

I'm just a beginer but these are things that fixed problems for me regarding SoundDiver not talking to the Virus. I don't know about the other settings in your setup.

a simple patch libarian which does the basic tricks (copy, edit, send, get patches and soundbanks)

What soundcard you using?

I used to use an Audiophile but found it wouldn't work with SoundDiver very well at all. I upgraded to an RME HDSP and it worked a treat. The soundcard is very important in getting Sounddiver to work.

Im using a delta 10/10lt

[Drammy]

Interesting - I was using a M-audio when I couldn't get it to work.

Definately works though - I got it working with my RME, like I said.

I think im going to sell my virus c now, its way too much messing about and seems very buggy and glitchy how you cant reset back to factory settings etc.
I just want to make music not spend all my time messing with something that doesnt work properly,

[sike]

im trying to use borg station and it doesnt seem to pick up midi files and i cant find anything in the help files with it that explains anything i need.

I just want to reset it back to its factory defaults.....surely it cant be this hard to perform such a basic task?

[Drammy]

Do you mean factory defaults only or factory sounds as well?

[sike]

Somehow ive saved over some presets and the stored presets no longer sound as they did when i first got it.
I just want the virus back to how it would be if you bought one new, the factory sounds etc.

Soundiver doesnt work, i dont have a sequencer to upload files.

Im seriously considering getting rid of this after only one week now as I could get like 3 classic vintage synths for that money and have no problems.

[sike]

ive decided to plug away for now to try and get this damn thing working. So far its looking like the m-audio delta10/10lt soundcard cant carry that much sysEx data.......
This is what i think the reason is now, i'll update soon

[slicetwo]

i use FLStudio as well so I'm in the same boat you are. i tried sounddiver through my presonus firepod and it don't work... laaaame.


and how could u ever want to get rid of such a beautiful synth. so waht if you can't transfer patches. the sound is amazing and u'll be hard-pressed to find anything that sounds as insane...

Borgstation you can send a whole bank from Borgstation to Virus C.

However I can only get one patch at a time from Virus C to Borg.

Have you try the full retail version of SoundDiver? I heard the bundle version that is free on Virus website doen't work too well
