Hello

Yea it works !

It was indeed because the midi ports were selected on Ableton preferences.
With everything deselected it works nicely.
I didn't know about this exclusivity thing for the connexion


Thanks a lot Xavier !

Hello

The editor on windows 10 can't connect to the Preen fm2 with USB midi.

The message "input cannot be open" keep poping up when i'm trying to connect the editor.

I've choose all the correct settings in the Midi settings of the preen and also tried differents one.
I've tried different versions of the editor.

I've been using the editor on a mac before with success with the same preen.

Somehow the conexion works in the Standalone editor but as soon as i select the device in a DAW and send midi to it (tried with ableton and reaper) the standalone connexion also stop working.

Did someone had a similar experience or know what could be the problem ?

I'm running out of ideas...

Thanks for yr help

Hello

Kind of the same topic ,
is there a way to change the default empty preset in the banks called  "preen mk2" , by a init patch for example?

It seems to be very important to match FW and editor, otherwise notes will hang.. so the most recent beta FW you can probably not use with the editor since the editor will not reflect what's now possible in the FW.

Hi there

Sorry for the late feedback about updating firmware and editor.
Using Midi to sequence (with mpc1000) and USB to edit the preen.

Things got quite better since then. In a sense that it is usable.

BUT I'm still having some bugs only less dramatic, like hanging (high) notes, always the same note, i need to send a "all notes off" message quite frequently when editing to make it stop. But Everything goes back to normal after that.
Other bug is sometimes one of the instrument get muted unexpectedly and to unmute it i need to move the glide parameter of the muted voice (?) or move the voice parameter.

I put the settings on the preen like you suggest in your post, so maybe there still a midi loop somewhere but i can't really figure out where and why nor what is the remaining problem.
I´m just sending notes on and off and a clock from mpc which afaik  is a reliable midi sequencer.

Anyway still having fun !
Hope u are all fine and take care.

Baptiste

Hello

Need some help here : I'm having a lot of troubles with the editor ,  i'm facing some unexpected bugs,for example : changing a parameter on the editor creating random changes to another parameter like the algoritm or volume (this problem happen a lot when i change envelope settings, systematicaly going back to algo28 (¿) ). Often hanging notes too , or patch that suddenly change completely, or even hardware freeze with error message,  everything together making it almost unusable except for some glitchy stuff (sometimes very nice actually : )

I'm running mac with yosemite on macbook ,, bought the preen pre assembled on van daal, everything is working fine except when im using the editor, i use the preen with both usb and midi , sequencing it with midi and changing parameters with usb, i tried and i had the same problem only using it with USB. I tried the Vst and standalone both buggy for me.
anyone have an idea what could be the issue?

Thanks in advance and take care !
