acid and midi (the work around that works) -ACID Product Family

Subject:acid and midi (the work around that works) Posted by: ozzborn Date:4/21/2003 2:20:34 AM i have found a good way to use acids midi the answer is v-stack its a work around i know but it works and works very good(better than using vsti,s in acid). for this i set up acid on a wave driver and use v-stack with an asio driver set up the midi, this is the only tricky part depending on what interface you have, now you have a more stable system and the advatages of vsti's. this could be further improved with better midi monitoring but since in this case i am controlling what sounds i can play from the midi keyboard its not as much of an issue. example; battery channel 1,atmosphere 2,sampletank 3-5,exsp24 6-8,trilogy 9,absynth 10 using this aproach with a 2nd computer is even better.

Subject:RE: acid and midi Reply by: coolout Date:4/22/2003 11:24:59 AM um...didn't i suggest this one at least 3 months ago. You don't have to pay for v-stack. if you not using the VST system link, which in this example you're not, xlutop's chainer does the exact same thing, but it's free. the only thing is in the free version you can't save presets so, can't have you favorite synth/effect combos at your fingertips...but at least it's free. You can also check www.kvr-vst.com there are many free vsti hosts that can be used this way.

i have found a good way to use acids midi
the answer is v-stack

its a work around i know but it works and works very good(better than using vsti,s in acid). for this i set up acid on a wave driver and use v-stack with an asio driver set up the midi, this is the only tricky part depending on what interface you have, now you have a more stable system and the advatages of vsti's.

this could be further improved with better midi monitoring but since in this case i am controlling what sounds i can play from the midi keyboard its not as much of an issue.
example;
battery channel 1,atmosphere 2,sampletank 3-5,exsp24 6-8,trilogy 9,absynth 10
using this aproach with a 2nd computer is even better.

Where can i get V-stack from? - is it freeware?

Would this work with Xlutop Chainer? using VSTi's?
