...or am I missing something?
Unless I create a template project with all of my external gear already set up on tracks (rather not because I have a lot of gear and like to mix and match it four different projects), I can’t save a piece of gear as a preset or program including all the midi output/channel/etc assignments in order to quickly load up that piece in a new project.
I can save a CV program but it doesn’t seem to store which CV outputs are attached to the piece - kinda the most important part...
And if I have a MIDI synth with CV ins (eg Neutron - I’d rather use USB MIDI for notes and then send CV to control things) well then just too bad, or have two tracks set up.. ugh
There really should just be an ‘external synth’ track type with all the vital information able to be saved as a program and with MIDI output/channel AND CV/Gate assignable freely. I was excited to get the One as the brain of a DAWless operation but the cracks are beginning to show.. somewhat disappointing.
How are people handling these issues? Not bothered? Doing the project template thing? *Am* I actually missing something?
Also does anyone have an account on the Akai Pro forum who could swing me an invite so I can make my suggestion over here or does anyone know if they read this stuff?
Cheers.
