I assume you have the base level 512GB model. This is a well documented issue. the 512 GB SSD in the MacBook Pro 14 with M1 Pro is actually 18% faster in writes (3,450 MB/s) and 50% faster in reads (4,081 MB/s) than the new 512 GB MacBook Pro 14 (2,929 MB/s write and 2,703 MB/s read) with M2 Pro in ...

Any program running ASIO will take eclusive control over the interface and make it unavailable to other applications,. Some devices are reluctant to "release" the driver when exiting a program. Go to the sound control panel in windows and disable any devices you aren't utilizing and make s...

Thought I would post links to some of the software I use for designing interfaces for midi control of Magic. There seems to be many options for Android and iOS, here are a few options for Windows if you want to design a custom gui. Surface editor /Free- Good basic program for designing custom touchs...

Any news?

I believe those 64 bit plugins were intended to bridge the gap at a time when some 64 bit software had yet to implement native spout support. This post was written (in 2015) while using Magic version(s) prior to 1.6 which required external spout plugins. I would try running the spoutdxmode.exe tool ...

Thanks Eric,
Not sure how I missed that, my apologies. Posted 2016.....I've been a fool!

Thanks again for the great software and support, hard to believe it has been four years.
Take care!

When mapping switches -e.g bypass, power or anything with a check box, Magic responds to both note on and note off signals making the button a momentary instead of a toggle. I don't know if there is a current solution within Magic, in the past I have used Midi-ox to filter note-off messages unfortun...

Another way to do this is record midi automation/envelopes in a daw (Ableton) and route to Magic, this allows you to automate multiple parameters and recall them easily. You need a virtual midi application (RTPmidi, loopBe, etc.) for routing. I use RTPmidi for the added ability to route to other mac...

Hi David, You could try using http://www.visikord.com , it is based off the old milkdrop visualization software and allows you to use a Kinect (360 or One) and route live to Magic via Spout. He just released a free version that should be enough for your needs,although the paid version has some cool ...

You might try using a virtual audio cable (voicemeeter,soundflower) to route audio from OBS to Magic rather than direct line-in. I don't use OBS but I believe it has audio output monitoring capabilities.
Good luck,
David

This might be because you do not have media player services enabled on the server, try installing “ Desktop Experience “ feature from the server manager, reboot the server after installing the feature and then you will see the windows media player and related services.
Good luck,
David

Displayport 1.2 and HDMI 1.3 serve different needs. HDMI has bi-directional audio and can carry ethernet data. Usually best suited for home theater. Displayport currently has more bandwidth, but the main advantage is the ability to daisy chain monitors/projectors, IF said monitors/projectors have bo...

Sweet.

Output values of 0 or 1 is perfect.
Thanks!

For those without midi gear or with limitations on midi gear they already own. Basically the ability to map keyboard characters (qwerty) to parameters. For midi gear that is hard mapped it is a great tool in combination with a midi keystroke translator. You could also do things like hacking a blueto...

Spacedoctor-Awesome! Great to hear!

Anders, Unfortunately I am not a good programmer, therefore writing scripts makes smoke come out of my ears. If you use Bomes midi translator you can convert midi to keystroke ( for software that supports midi keyboard, unfortunately magic does not have this functionality at the time). For Ableton l...

Hey Anders! As seen in the picture below, click the filter button in midi-ox (blue arrow), then check 'note off', the 'midi channel', and make double sure you check 'filter out data as well as display' or it won't filter data. You can save your config in midi-ox as well. Allen & Heath products a...

Actually you have four programmable pad banks, so you could control 64 scenes using all four banks. :mrgreen: To use the auto fill on the other banks you have to tell it the first note e.g bank 2 first note: 16, bank 3 first note 32 , bank four first note 48. I need to test a second Orbit starting w...

Awesome!

Yeah, it works great with Magic, I love the ability to custom map and customize colors.
And like you said it's solidly built. Kind of interesting that the software is made in max/msp.

As long as you are using the 64-bit receiver plugin of course

Thanks Eric, I had forgot that the download was separate from spout install.
Thanks for the quick reply.

Does the 64 bit version of Magic support the spout receiver plugin? Seems it works in 32 bit version only.

Of course! It has two shoulder buttons that enable the accelerometer while pressed. Left button is x-axis right is y-axis. Each axis sends unique cc data. Also has 4 presets, therefore you can control 8 unique parameters. The pad lights give you feedback on device angle. Basically it is a class comp...

Just picked up three of these for $30 each!! ($32 w/shipping) They normally sell for $99-$149. Fun little wireless controller with accelerometer. Feels solid and has rechargeable battery. A new midi controller for under $35 is awesome. :shock: orbit.jpg http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BF82I9W/ref=sr_ph?...

Try this.

You might try this, although it is a plug-in, not stand-alone.
http://www.thepiz.org/plugins/?p=pizmidi
Has some cool functionality including audio to midi cc.
You can do quite a bit with it as long as you are running a compatible host.
Free and open source.

All of the buttons on your controller send notes already, as seen below. X.PNG If you are trying to control scene transitions with a knob or fader then you need to select your controller in the playlist midi config and use controller (cc) input -not note input. Once you select "controller"...

Just a compilation of requests made to this date and a list of features already implemented. -(XX) Feature development XX- FFGL module for loading FFGL 1.5 plugins XX- Syphon output of entire application on OS X, including playlist transitions XX- Spout sender/receiver modules (http://spout.zeal.co)...

Tried 640x480, 320x240 with same results, in the pic below you can see the artifacts from moving a window over the preview window and missing polygon, cap1.PNG and then below after unchecking/rechecking "magic over editor" it works perfect. cap2.PNG What is more strange is if I use my scre...

So it seems there is still a weird issue. In order to get it to work correctly I have to uncheck then recheck "magic above editor" when I start magic, then it functions perfectly. http://youtu.be/SAddxY5_1II Since I haven't heard of this issue with other users, I will assume it is somethin...

Eric,
Unchecked keep midi/playlist above editor and it works fine now, weird.

Wish I had done that three days ago.......

Thanks for your time,
David.

Eric, Thanks for the quick response. To be honest I have been working on the audio portion of my set so I just started using v1.52. Been using a second monitor but never had the option to preview until this version. Have tried 3 different drivers, reformat hd, re-install clean os, re-installed magic...

I am experiencing a problem when going full screen on external (2nd)monitor. Everything works fine until I go to full screen, the 2nd monitor shows the full screen window without issue, yet the "preview" window goes blank and remains blank even after exiting full screen. I have to restart ...

anything that is class compliant midi should give you no problems. Just remember that things like infinite dials which just send 0 or 127 are going to be fairly useless for magic without any kind of advanced mapping features. Also no midi out so things like lights etc might not work. Like I stated ...

The LPD8 is a great controller, unlike other controllers it is completely re-mappable with velocity sensitive pads. Also has the ability to set 4 "programs" that can be recalled on the fly. Magic is midi compatible, thus ANY midi controller will work, as MIDI is standard across all devices...

The ability to map individual module bypass button(s) to midi.
Love the midi map feature.
Thank you!

Thanks for the reply, what I was referring to is the ability to use continuous controllers (knobs) and or buttons & faders and assign (map) those to individual parameters so I can adjust settings on the fly a little easier than using mouse/keyboard. So to make a long story short-I desire midi ma...

Thanks for the great software.
Would love to have the ability to map cc's for parameter adjustment.
Thanks again!
