Hello Mathias,
Thanks very much for upgrading to v7.
I'm sure there are no bugs or changes in v7 above v4 that would be relevant to that. Perhaps your console is also sending some additional MIDI message(s) simultaneously (e.g. also sending MIDI stop on/off messages) that are preventing auto-detection from being able to hear the intended message from the MIDI piston.
Please try:
- In Hauptwerk, on the "
General settings | General preferences" screen, make sure that the "
MIDI hardware/console type" is set to "
Unmodified MIDI digital/electronic organ: Content".
- Load the St. Anne's organ.
- Temporarily turn on the "
Diagnostics: log all MIDI messages received and sent" option on the "
General settings | General preferences | Advanced ..." screen tab and OK the screen (and OK the warning about performance).
- Without touching anything (in Hauptwerk, and on your Content organ), wait 30 seconds or so, so that the relevant MIDI messages can be identified by their timestamps.
- Still without touching anything else right-click on the virtual St. Anne's Swell divisional piston 1, and select the option to auto detect it.
- Still without touching anything else, press, and then release, the relevant one of your Content organ's MIDI pistons.
- If the 'Done' button has become enabled on Hauptwerk's auto-detection screen then OK it, otherwise:
- Click 'Cancel'.
- Still without touching anything else, use "
Help | Create a diagnostic file" and send the resulting to Francois via:
https://www.hauptwerk.com/submit-ticket/ . (I think you probably need to be logged into your account on MDA's on-line shop in order to be able to do that.)
That will allow us to see the MIDI messages that Hauptwerk received from the Content, and thus hopefully why the MIDI auto-detection failed.
Best regards, Martin.
