Using ONE with external control/DAW sequencer

Post by paddy ryan » Fri Jul 05, 2019 3:15 pm

There is a long way to go to get the ONE useable with an external controller or sequencer!

When using the ARP with an external controller, you have to have the keyboard ON on the MOOG to enable the ARP. ButiIt responds by playing the held notes until the sequencer gets to them...then it releases the held notes to the ARP (until you play that key again)
Trying to use the MOOG keyboard itself, it also sends out both the held notes and the arpeggiated notes over MIDI. You also have to turn MIDI pass through OFF on the sequencer to keep the MIDI data from looping back. Unfortunately again, turning local (keyboard) off when using with the sequencer, and sending the MIDI back to the MOOG to play it (like I do with all my synths usually), the ARP does not play... just the held notes.

ONE also does not respond to sustain or expression pedal from a controller keyboard.

My Quantum behaves exactly as expected (and as all my other synths), where if I turn local off and play it from a controller (or locally but through MIDI via my DAW), it behaves exactly the same way it would if I were playing it locally on it's own keyboard. And all controllers work fine.

I have been using MIDI for a million years and have never seen a synth behave like this.

All I can really do is play it live and record the audio...

Add it to the list I guess...

I use the One with my DAW - logic - if I set up midi sync in logic to transmit MTC and to send external clock to the One, (via midisport rather than One usb) it works ok. Fair enough the midi filter on the one is a little slow to work on fast tempo changes, but it’s not alone in that respect.

Yes. Clock works properly...no problem there.

But nothing else does!

Just got Moog One for testing, I still have 2 weeks left so I can return it.
It seems to me that I can play MIDI fine via MIDI DIN interface AND also from Logic when connected via computer USB port.
But I can't use any class compliant USB controller directly on the USB host port, like Keystep or Linnstrument.
