Pipeloops Calliope - no sound

PostFri Mar 31, 2017 5:58 am

I've just downloaded and installed the trial version of the Pipeloops Calliope, but cannot produce any sound. The keys on the on-screen keyboard are moving, so MIDI is getting through correctly.

It must be something to do with the steam pressure meter, which remains set at zero whatever I do. I've set up a stop control, which causes the valve control lower down the pipe to rotate, and presumably admit steam; but still the pressure indicator remains at zero. I'll email Pipeloops about this, but thought it would be worth also trying the forum, as responses here can be remarkably quick. Thanks!

Got it! The trial version is designed to cut out after about a minute, then it has to be reloaded. It took me so long to figure out that I needed to “Open the steam valve”, that the set had already cut out by the time I did so. When I loaded the “organ” and opened the valve IMMEDIATELY it was fine!

Hello

This calliope is very fun and it deserves the price ! :)

The only problem is that you can't insert this stop in a other sample set.
I wish I could merge it in Anloo or Forcalquier ...
