How do I make Stochas play #61

Closed asafcha closed 3 years ago

asafcha commented 3 years ago

Hi, Stochas newbie here and I can't seem to get it to work properly. I set the output midi ch to 1, I opened another vst on the same channel, I can see the white bar moving along the grid on Stochas when I hit Play, and when I add notes to the grid nothing happens. I hear nothing. Can someone guide me on this one? Tnx!

Hi, what DAW and platform are you on?

asafcha commented 3 years ago

Hi, I'm using FL 20.8 on a mac BigSur

asafcha commented 3 years ago

If I understand correctly, Stochas is a sequencer that I can add to any vst on my DAW, right? it has no sound of its own, it supposes to add a sequnce on other vst. How do I do that? Thanks for helping

That is correct. It does work on FL Studio, however there is some midi routing you need to do. Back when stochas was commercial, we had this video that described how to get this going in FL. Older version of FL so situation might have changed, however might be useful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWzrxjpL8p0

Thank you Andrew, I'll dig into this soon.👍.

Thanks again, it's working now. Maybe you should add an intro tip for this basic setup.

Thanks Asaf. If you have time to write a paragraph on how you got it working, I can add it to the Q&A section.

Sure. Here goes:

Open Stochas>General settings>Midi>Apply Output port 1 (#) Open VST player>General settings>Midi> Apply Input port 1 (#)

*General Setting of the plugin
