I upgraded Rosegarden tonight because it kept crashing when I tried to add expression data (CC11) :-( Unfortunately, after the upgrade, I started getting strange sequencing issues, some tracks seemed to be sending MIDI but nothing was playing back (maybe corrupted data???), other times all tracks would send data to the same channel, as the same instrument would play for each track, regardless of what MIDI channel I had it set to. It was really weird... My setup is kinda complex but has served me well for a long time. I send MIDI data to multiple instruments in the MIDI studio. Each instrument is mapped to QMIDINet outputs (this sends MIDI out over ethernet). I have a Windows machine setup with ipMIDI, and with multiple instances of various samplers like Kontakt and EWQL Play loaded into Reaper, and the audio is sent back via SPDIF. It was working well last night, in fact. After the upgrade, I started having these random issues. I downgraded back to 11.11.42 and everything was working. (The crashing from editing CC11 data is kind of bad, though). I have this project I need to get finished up, and then I can help debug this issue with 12.04. -- Brett W.

The most likely explanation is that the new logical instruments automagic channel mapping stuff is playing hell with your setup. You can probably get rolling again by going in and changing a lot of stuff over from "auto" to "fixed" in the instrument parameters boxes. I think this is proof enough that we need a top-level global override for this pretty desperately. I'm all for that, but I'm the busiest with work I've ever been in my life right now, and I just have no idea when I might have time to knock that out. I could probably do it in an evening, once I get a chance. Problem is I'm literally coming home, going to bed, getting up, and going back to work. I barely have time to eat, and I've had to put everything I was doing in the way of spare time stuff on hiatus indefinitely. I consider this a highish priority item in terms of trying to roll out a follow-up point release pretty soon after implementing it. -- D. Michael McIntyre |

Ah, didn't think about the new dynamic stuff (it wasn't a feature I was interested in so I had ignored it in the announcement), I will try that tonight when I am back in the studio. -- Brett W.

Switching each instrument to "fixed" did it. Might be a good idea for channels to default to 'fixed' and not 'auto' when opening existing projects if it's not already set. This could cause a lot of confusion if someone is migrating a project from an older release or importing MIDI from other applications. -- Brett W.

With no setting in the file, we had to pick something arbitrarily, and we picked auto for everything but percussion, fixed for percussion. People are probably still going to need a global top level override too, I suspect. Who knows, I actually got caught up on a lot of stuff yesterday, and I might snatch a few minutes for this later tonight. Maybe. It's touch and go. -- D. Michael McIntyre |

Hi all, I use FluidSynth as a DSSI plugin in Rosegarden. When I choose a sound and add some modulation (mostly vibrato) then I often find the vibrato's frequency too high. Is there a simple way to lower the speed of the vibrato? Do I have to edit the soundfont? How? Best regards Holger |
