Nexus and Arturia Minilab - Knobs

Today i will this knobs work together



 The key to it all is here


So let us try.

1. I Click on Generators 
2.Then this picture come up. This is all knobs that Nexus has. And we need to fix this to work for my keyboard.


3. So here we go. Move the knob you would like to add to the keyboard (With the mouse) Let us say Cutoff on Nexus.
We do this to find out where the knob is on the list above.



Then this happen

fmodcut move inside(See)
This is our knob we need to fix to our keyboard.

4. Right click on fmodcut , and you get this picture


5. Select Override generic link, then this picture come up



 6. Now it is time to choose knob to use on your keyboard. I choose the second one near 6.



 7. Move that knob. And we are done.
If your knob act strange. Then the settings in Arturia MIDI Control Center is wrong. It need to be Medium . NOT FAST.

Put then into medium and sync the settings to Arturia Analog Lab. 


So lets try to do this in Kontakt 
Well you will see fast that this not work at all.

So how do we do that.

Well Kontakt has an own meny. Go to Auto in Kontakt.


Then hold left button on then mouse here #001 and i drag it to Volum knob



 Then #001 will change to not assigned to




Then we need to go as before .And now you see we have some name on this list.



 Right click on the knob



 Move you knob on the keyboard. and we are done
It seems that the settings not get saved .


So you need to do like this every time.

Arturia Analog Lab - My notebook on things - How to make Arturia Analog Lab work in Fl Studio

My keyboard is Arturia Analog Lab.

So i wanted to make some notes on my blogg, about this keyboard. I will edit this as i learn along.

So who use Arturia Keyboard. Well Moby showed his studio on his facebook this week. And there you clearly see he uses Arturia.



I am using an Ipad as an drum machine. And i use other software that i will show as we go along .


First here is some videos.




 

I found out that a really importen issue is use the keys in Fl studio.

And i never installed all software. Because i am like all men " i know all hehe" and never read any manual.

 MIDI Control Center

This is how you get the keys to work under Fl Studio.



See "cutoff and emphasis"


This will never work if you  not install MIDI Control Center in Fl Studio.

And Arturia support do not understand how to do this. 

After long time i found this out by myself.

The next is to make this link to controller i fl studio.


See other that has problem in same way as me.




I love all synth. And one that is really hard to come over is NI Kore.When i need that extra in a tune. Then a start up Kore. But as it is hard to install under new OS. I will not give you this know how here.

In my example.

here is my start

I add a tone in first level. Then i add a bass. Analoglab 3 i want to add some more .

Then i Use Kore 2.Why because it is amazing.


I add this in pattern 1




 Pattern 2 - Kore 2

I do not know why but after i installed MIDI Control Center, then the settings changed to this.
 Before it was only Arturia minilab.
But now i am able to use all knob in my keyboard. 



Something that i learn is this

 By click on this and choose the tone see the two tone in orange.

Then you can make some really nice drum effekt.

 

 This also is possible to tune

And the sound is amazing

 

 So this is possible to makeautmation clip on.And we can link to controller and let the sound change as we go along.

FL Studio: How To Link a 3rd Party VST to an Ext. Midi Controller

 


 
--------------------------------------------

Arturia Analog Lab 2 Tutorial






  





The problem with Arturia Minilab is:

If you not start up MIDI Control Center first then no knob will work under FL studio.

1. Start up MIDI Control Center - Press sync
2. Start up Fl Studio
3. Start up Arturia Plugins
4. Now it should work

If this is not done i have found out that all knobs are useless in Fl Studio.


But there is also problem here. Sometimes i found out that this picture not come

Under Arturia minilab it should say sync 1. But many times it comes with FAIL.
Then nothing work.
I have found out that if i sync again and restart FL Studio then all working. 

There must be something that is connected to input port.

Because if input port is ---
Then nothing

When i changed this to : 0 , then knobs worked


So to make Arturia Minilab work under FL Studio then you need

Input port til be same as:



and to sync the controller with MIDI Control Center


The next that i need to find out is how to make all knobs work under different VST then Arturia.


And i belive FL Guru has the answer in his video above
So now i study this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lTDnAx0sgE



1.

Change from this

To this


2.Override generic link


Well Fl Guru was right. Now i got my Arturia Analog Lab working under Harmless.



But there was a problem
The knob act strange.




Under MIDI Control Center


Here is the solution

Change it medium


Override generic link choose a knob you would like to use on Arturia Analog Lab.

I just chose Cutoff knob to handle Frekvens in Harmless.

But remember that in MIDI Control Center
the settings need to be medium

This might be the trick to have other VST handled by Arturia keyboard




And what i always wanted to do, has now been fixed.

A small autmation clip and now , well see video above.

----------------------------------------------------------------
So now for badly behaved VST

We want to use the knob on Arturia in other VST

But problem is that some is not so easy to - Override generic link on

So here is how

 1. Go to Current project - Generators



2.Fruity Wrapper



3.Here is the selection of knobs that your VST has. And we need to sort out what knob is to what.

4. Select same as before, but this time click on target interface list



5.


6. The select Override generic link


Tweek the knob that you want on your kontroller and you are done.

So with this lets try to see if Arturia is possible to use cutoff



To find the knob in in the list that you want to use in Nexus.

Just move it.

Then i Selected Override generic link  and moved cutoff on Arturia keyboard. And yess we have a lift off.

There are many that is much better then me. I just do this to learn something new everyday. And see if i can create something beautiful.

To day i created a tune i called Norwegian Fjords.
