FREE, Permanent Fix For CSS Legato for Logic Users

Discussion in 'Tips, Tricks & Talk' started by Noam Levy, May 28, 2018.

  1. Great job, man!

    I'm not a Logic user, but I'm a CSS user and this looks great for cutting the work that needs to be done just to get the library to play on the beat. You've surely made a lot of people happy!

    Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. This is brilliant! Looking forward to trying it out.
     
  3. Excellent job. Maybe a Cubase version in the future? ;)
     
  4. I spent some time today putting this through the wringer. Overall it works really well and makes working with CSS much easier, especially when importing midi that is already quantized. I see the potential for using this with different libraries as well. Bravo! A few thoughts:

    - A big thing I am missing are non-legato articulations. I have to automate CC58 to get divisi notes, which is fine, but it would be great if I could just choose Sustain NL, Tremolo NL, etc. in the articulation menu.

    - Somewhat related, it would be great if this could work alongside ARTzID (maybe it does, I didn't actually try it).

    - Playback is unpredictable when there are notes happening at the exact same time in the same part. Notes will sometimes play the wrong articulation or not play at all. I found that humanizing the notes that are stacked sometimes helps, but not always.

  5. Thanks for the feedback Sean!

    Yes, that's planned.

    The next version will have a complete behind the scenes rewrite of the code, support for CSS's nonlegato articulations, and a zero-latency "recording mode" triggerable by an expression pedal. The version after that will introduce the Dynamic Conform feature and start adding more libraries. Dynamic Conform is where this will really take off IMO.

    Yep, known bug. I'm working on tracking down the exact cause, pretty sure it has to do with the queuing of events.
