Duplicating chunks. MIDI going to VEP servers lose channel#.

Post by mhurwitz »

When duplicating chunks, MIDI channels assigned to VEP server instances lose their channel assingments in the DP tracks window. Why?

Thanks!

This doesn't happen to me anymore.

But have you tried disabling and enabling the tracks in DP? Sometimes that cured that problem when I worked with an older DP version.
Mac Mini Server i7 2.66 GHs/16 GB RAM / OSX 10.14 / DP 9.52
Tascam DM-24, MOTU Track 16, all Spectrasonics' stuff,
Vienna Instruments SUPER PACKAGE, Waves Mercury, slaved iMac and Mac Minis running VEP 7, etc.

There is something weird going on with duplicating DP 7.23/24 chunks and it's effect on MIDI assignments. Case in point, if you duplicate a chunk and make the copy active, the copy will be fine, but if you go back to view the original chunk via the chunk selector in the SE window you will find that when you reactivate your original chunk - all of the MIDI assignments are in italics. This is all happening within DP. The work around (if you want to go back to your original chunk and have the MIDI still assigned) is to always select your chunks via the chunks window. This may not apply to your situation but thought I would mention it as it may somehow be related.
