Hi,

I understand that controller input and output are supposed to contain octave, scale and tonic information.

but if i have a number of keygroups, and link the controller lines, i still don't get this information passed down and subsequently down to the rigs/scalers

the only way i can get this to work is if I link octave/scale/tonic across the keygroups, but id have thought this was unnecessary
(if not, why does keygroup have controller input, and what does it contain?)

you can see in my PicoMix setup this being done, between the main keygroup, and (for example) simple keygroup.
ive linked octave/tonic/scale as well as controller -> controller input,
but if you remove octave you will see it wont work


PicoMix on G+

thanks for the help, it will really help my understanding...

(someone mentioned something about marking the wire ct, but this didnt seem to help, but perhaps i didtnt do it all they way down the chain.. thought id check with you guys first!)

checked that, no its not set on the scaler.

also, as mentioned, if i copy the octave,scale,tonic across to the downstream keygroup it works.


to be clear, the setup is like this

KG1->KG2->Scaler

KG1 = main keygroup, and is where e.g. octave is set.

controller wired from KG1 to KG2, controller line from KG2 to Scaler is wired.
does not work.

if i then wire octave, scale, tonic from KG1 to KG2, it works properly

i dont set any 'flags' on control lines, they are just wired up in WB by default wire from KG1 to KG2
