Automating Ominsphere's "The Orb" in DP

Post by JSmith1234567 »

Can anyone explain how to write "Orb" automation into DP?

I really can't figure it out?

Thanks!

I got it to work once, but it wrote so many lanes of automation into DP that everything froze and then crashed. I used the iPad to control it and do all the motion, and I think there is a setting in Omnisphere to transmit changes as MIDI CC. Sorry I can't help more than that.

Yeah; whenever I've seen a demo of The Orb it's always been controlled from a device like an iPad.
