Re: Hauptwerk IX Early User Experience

Martin, the main thing I find hard/weird to navigate is that there are effectively sub-tabs, but only indicated by text, eg the midi settings/audio routing example in the image you post. That might be why I think things are moving around. I can completely understand it is easier for touch screen ...

Re: Hauptwerk IX Early User Experience

In some ways I'm relieved that you've both replied so quickly; I thought it was just me (and my son!).

I'm sure for touch screen users it's a an improvement, but ...

Re: Hauptwerk IX Early User Experience

Is there ever going to be an option for ‘use normal menus’? I have put up with the touch menus since release, but really really really really can’t bear them. Half the time I can’t find what I’m looking for; particularly in the audio tab because things move around/wrap for whatever reason. Currently ...

Re: Pedalboard wiring?

Thanks all. I decided I could spend a long time working out the serialisation, or just spend an hour patching it in to an arduino. So I chose the latter. I reused the original wiring and connector back to the console, so the arduino connects to my “master arduino” over serial, and gets 5v power down ...

Re: Pedalboard wiring?

There's no MIDI on this organ at all. I believe it's using shift registers (4 wired in, 1 spare), but the pin out of the TI chips doesn't seem to match with what my multimeter is telling me; literally everything connects to ground... I've decided to just take the switch input wires and connect them ...

Pedalboard wiring?

I’ve recently been lucky enough to acquire a large 3m drawstop console - a Wyvern C356. I’ve got 2.98 of the manuals modified (3 notes on the great just don’t want to work even after a good scrub with isopropyl), and now moving on to the pedals. I’m struggling to work out the pedal scheme; it has the ...

Re: Scanning old Wyvern manuals

Update; got it all figured out. Weird column/row order, but all 3 manuals work now. Phew!

Scanning old Wyvern manuals

I've recently acquired a new console which I'm trying to convert - a Wyvern C356. The manuals have 16 pin connectors out of them, and that would logically appear to me to be an 8x8 scan matrix, but I just can't get any logic out of it. Anyone got any experience with these? I'd assumed it would be ...

Re: Romsey Abbey

I really don't understand this thread at all. Can we not just be happy that there's another excellent sample set on the market, rather than complaining about all manner of things that are entirely up to the sampleset manufacturer to decide upon? It's (from the youtube videos I've seen) fabulous; as ...

4 wire swell potentiometer?

I've recently acquired an old Miller "Norwich" console. It's very well made, but very old. The swell pedal is confusing me - it appears to have 4 wires going to it in 2 pairs. Pair 1 - this went to what appears to be a combined amplifier and power source so I'm assuming is power: White insulated ...

How to get the sample set guide and license activated

Hi all, Does one still need to email Hauptwerk support to get the sampleset creation guide and license activation? I’ve emailed twice asking for it, first time before Christmas, no response at all, second time last week and got a support ticket number but no reply… if it’s not longer required, great, ...
