Little Phatty & Cubase

Post by Raphie » Wed Oct 29, 2008 11:54 am

Hi,

I've purchased a Little Phatty STAGE earlier this week. Iinstalled the 2.00 OS and the new 2.00 Patches. Everything works as expected in stand alone mode. But as soon as i connectect the midi IN/OUT of the LP via Cubase weird things happen (i've put LOCAL OFF in the settings)
Wehen changing the MOD wheel or rotate any of the 4 buttons, the LP seems to "lock up" the patch goes silent and notes choke.

It seems like some kind off midi loop, however i've not been able to resolve the problem. This makes using the LP for Cubase worthless. I am probably overlooking some kind of setting somewhere, but which one?

Also, how do yoy sync the ARP function to MIDI Clock? setting the LFO to midi clock does not sync the ARP?

Have you tried the old RTFM? If not, read the farking manual. 9 times outta ten that works for me! OS 2 comes with an addendum, and I suggest you print it out, as it becomes a pain trying to run Adobe and a MIDI program together. :wink: Also, welcome to the forum! :mrgreen:

i am having the same problem with LFO. any help would be appreciated, I couldnt find it in the manual. i seem to have everything synced (im using logic) but then when i went to play with sample n hold the mod wheel had no effect but to cut off the signal. it was weird.

you have to sync the arp separately to clock source: midi in the advanced presets.

ofcourse i can rtfm, however i am not new to sequencers or synths
every other synth in my rig it's just connect MIDI IN/OUT enable LOCAL OFF to prevent midi loop and there you go. None of my other synths "lock up" this way.

Hence the question is there sometihng i am overlooking. I also mentioned i found the EXT MIDI CLK option for LFO, but not for the ARP function. Will look again for this one.

But some shared experiences regarding working together with C4 + dongle would be very much appreciated.

Resolved the problem: I needed to disable all midi thru options in Cubase. Works like a charm now.
