Hello Lawrence, On macOS, if you overfill the RAM, macOS' audio stops working, resulting in no sound. Later macOS versions often need a bit more free RAM for themselves. Please try: - Reboot the Mac. - Load that organ via " Organs | Load, adjusting rank options ", and temporarily change all ranks to ...

Hello Axel, Thanks very much for upgrading to v9. First of all, please make sure that the v9.0.0.258 installer you downloaded has exactly the size and MD5 checksum as follows: v9.0.0 for Windows: 3.01 GB (3,233,986,896 bytes) MD5 checksum:16cde7fcaf3bcb009979062ed58163e8 This is how to check the ...

Hello Axel,

I see from your other thread that you've now upgraded to v9 (thanks again for that), so I'll get back to you via that thread instead.

Thanks very much for the intention to reactivate the subscription. I've asked Francois to get back to you on that. There might be some delay, due to the Christmas/New Year holidays.

Hello jgirv, If you haven't tried it already, please try downloading via the 'Download' link at the top of the main Hauptwerk website: https://www.hauptwerk.com/win/ The Hauptwerk v9.0.0.258 download size and MD5 checksum should be as follows if the download has succeeded properly: Windows: 3.01 GB ...

Hello Marc, I hadn't tried Theorbe's utility myself, but I understand that it works/worked by sending key-strokes to Hauptwerk's voicing screen to automate movements of the sliders, so as to adjust tuning randomly but equally for the 'front' and 'rear' virtual ranks. The exact sequence of key ...

Hello Axel, To add to Everjan's reply (thanks very much, Evertjan): If the problem is indeed in an audio driver, the only way in which upgrading to the current version of Hauptwerk (v9) could help is that it logs each audio driver before it attempts to query that driver. Hence if an audio driver ...

Hello Axel, Briefly, since we no longer support Hauptwerk v4: InstallAnywhere is the name of the installer authoring software that we use for writing Hauptwerk's installer, so it may be normal for you to see a banner indicating that InstallAnywhere is installing something (Hauptwerk). If it doesn't ...

Thanks, Aah. What I'm looking for is a way to get the current state of all the stops, regardless of whether the registration has been saved in some way. Is there no way to do that? No MIDI message? No menu option? There's no native way to export the current states of all stops/switches to a text ...

Hello Bob,

Thanks very much for buying the upgrade.

I don't know about that myself, but I've asked Francois to get back to you when he has a chance. There might be some delay on that, due to the Christmas holidays.

Hello high5ths, Thanks for upgrading to v9, and for the thoughts. The traditional menu bar was removed because it duplicated some (but not all) of the functions on the touch menu and control panels, and it was felt that it had become so large that overall it was confusing and intimidating to many ...

Hello Aah, Hauptwertk's ' Copy reg ' function copies the data to an internal combination within Hauptwerk (from which you can use Hauptwerk's ' Paste reg ' function); it doesn't copy any data at all to the OS clipboard, and there's no way that you could extract the data from there, I'm afraid. (You ...

Hello Axel, Briefly (since we no longer support Hauptwerk v4), and to add to others' replies: Hauptwerk queries the audio and MIDI drivers from the OS when it launches. If an audio driver hangs while it's being queried then it will cause Hauptwerk to hang upon launch. Perhaps an audio driver was ...

P.S. I think the reason I get confused by this is that I have many stereo pairs of speakers which I have generally organized by organ division plus a sub. P.S.: - There's nothing wrong with mixing everything through a sub-woofer, since deep bass sounds are effectively directionless anyway. - When ...

Hello Mike, Within sample sets, by a 'perspective' a sample set producer means samples recorded from a particular microphone position. 'Recording perspective' or 'source perspective' or 'microphone perspective' might be more descriptive. E.g. a sample set's virtual 'ranks' might be named with ...
