I was very excited to view the video about setting the interval between courses. I downloaded version 1.1.21 to get access to the Eigen Commander. So far so good. I typed in the script commands and shazam, it worked. I set an offset of 12 intervals between course 1 and 2, then 7 between the other courses. That allows me to control the Gofriller cello functions with course 1, and have the rest set as CGDA, just like on my cello. Easy! Unfortunately, when I attempted to open the Gofriller (from within Kontakt) via AU3, my system froze, requiring a hard reset. I tried to open Kontakt 3 and 4, both of which froze the system. I sent back to the stable release, 1.0.14, and Kontakt/Gofriller opened and worked just fine, but (of course) I don't have a way to set the courses from within 1.0.14. SO, I'm stuck. Can anyone advise me about how to set courses within 1.0.14? Plus, while I know each update can't necessarily work with every other bit of sound software known to man, it is important for you to know that whatever you "fixed" in 1.1.21, broke Kontakt. Thanks for your help!

Hi Pat,

Could you provide me with more information about your computer system? The easiest is to send a bug report using EigenD 1.1.21 itself before the problematic behavior occurs.

I've tested a lot of Kontakt instruments myself and can't reproduce this issue, we'd like to track down what exactly the problem could be and reproduce it internally.

Have you tried using other Kontakt instruments? Which exact version of Kontakt are you using?

Thanks for the help,

Hi Patrick,

I replied to your email yesterday, here is what I sent you:

What kind of Eigenharp are you using?

Your AU instrument might be set to polyphonic midi channel mode which sends notes on different midi channels to achieve more polyphony. This used to be the default behavior, but that has changed very recently. It's easy to change in you setup through the advanced AU configuration mode, but it's probably even easier to just load a clean factory setup fro 1.1.23-stable. The default midi channel there is channel 1.

Another idea that just crossed my mind, are you certain you load the AU in the instrument slot and not in the online FX slot? On the Tau and the Alpha these buttons are pretty close to each other and can easily be confused. If you load it on the online FX slot, you will not get sound when the AU is an instrument.

Let me know how it goes,

Geert

Hi Pat,

I'm sorry to hear that you're still having problems with Kontakt. Would you mind sending a bug report from within EigenD while you're running the setup that has Kontakt loaded. This will allow us to take a deeper look.

Also, did you try using Alchemy in the same AudioUnit slot? Does it work?

Thanks,

Geert

Eureka! No bug report needed. I don't know what you fixed between 1.1.23 and 1.1.24, but the new stable version did the trick. It works like a charm! Oh man the keys are PERFECT for triggering the cello vibrato and the portamento from note to note is so smooth. OK, now on to getting a volume pedal, configuring the courses, and getting some practice. Thanks, Geert and Eigenlabs... for whatever you did!
