In Settings / Audio/MIDI Setup, turn off the "MIDI device polling" checkbox.
Yes. Just close the popups, then use the three popup menus in the middle of the Guru Sampler GUI to re-select your SFZ file.
No need to start again from your EXS files. You just need to track down where your converted sound files are, and check for issues like file name diff...
@wavesequencer GP5 had some goofy transport issues, but they've been fixed in the forthcoming GP6, and as far as I know the fixes were back-ported t...
@wavesequencer These crashes are probably due to the specific plug-ins in use. Gig Performer has options to get a crash report, from which the GP de...
Unify works less efficiently at smaller buffer sizes like 64, especially on Windows. Please try setting your host to use, say 256 or 512 samples, and ...
@craigr68 It would be great if you could do a unified library for MemoryMode 2. My methods for converting a plug-in's presets directly to unified patc...
It should be fixed now. Please re-download and try again. If you still have a problem, use this (temporary) download link:/p>
@ssquared I wasn't involved in the development of Guru Sampler 2. @Wavesequencer can you answer this question about lag times?
@ssquared Unify does indeed run incoming MIDI past the macro knobs before sending what remains through the layers (including MIDI effect layers). He...
Yes, that should be all you need. If the drive with your Unify files is the same as before, you might not even need to rebuild the database. After c...
Muting layers (using the "M" buttons) simply reduces their output volume to zero; CPU usage will be unaffected. Disabling layers (by clicking the gr...
This sounds like a permissions issue on MacOS. Basically, the Unify stand-alone app has write access to your patches, but your DAWs do not. Try sett...
I've lost count of the number of times I had to re-download and re-install the LABS instruments, because of some glitch in their plug-in. Spitfire mak...
I can answer this in three ways: You can achieve most of what you want by changing the shape of the individual response curves. See 1st paragraph ...
It looks like John uploaded a .zip file to Dropbox, forgetting to rename it to .guru first. If you have downloaded the file unify2_smd_u2_6_27_updat...
@ermatlock Thanks for letting me know your results. I have passed this on to John and Paul. We may need to discuss this with U-He directly.
@ermatlock I'll let John know about the Subsonic Artz libraries. Have a look at the layer-reuse page in the old Unify manual. It should still be r...
I checked, and the patches in the unified Diva library on the PlugInGuru web site were not saved with multi-core on. If you haven't re-saved them, wha...
Both Unify and DAWs like Ableton Live make use of multiple cores. In some cases this means that a plug-in's own multi-core processing doesn't work wel...
The "x64" is included in the plugin name because the unified library was almost certainly made on a Windows PC, where many VST2 plugin file names ende...
Good thought. @Wavesequencer please take note. While CC lanes would be useful, individual parameter-automation lanes (and perhaps macro-parameter lane...
I think you just answered your own question, but I can add two thoughts: The original SuperMacho Drums was driven by MIDI sequences, some of which...
Renaming libraries is actually quite complex, because there are several places where the library name can appear within patch data. I created a utilit...
@Wavesequencer Manual creation of .guru files is error-prone. Unify probably needs an "export library as .guru file" function.
@wavesequencer No ideas about the display glitches, but if they're occurring only for plug-ins hosted in ComboBox instances, not in Unify itself, I'd ...
Unify has never handled sleep/wake fully on the Mac. I suspect there's something it has to do, to reconnect to the audio driver on wake, which it does...
@Wavesequencer please note--possible installer issue. @unifyman2024 are you installing on a PC or a Mac?
I do this kind of thing frequently for John, using a C++ program I hack at the source level for each situation. This can definitely be done using Pyth...
For some useful background and some Python scripts, see/p> Within that GitHub repo you'll also find a C++/JUCE program called PatchReformer that can...
None of this is my responsibility anymore, but I should mention that you are talking about "unified" patch libraries, which are basically gifts provid...
@ironman1013 RX2 files (aka ReCycle files) are not MIDI files. They are audio files that have been split into sections so an RX2 player program or p...
Unify macro parameter links are based on the parameter name, not the index (aka ID). I understand now that this is opposite to how most DAWs/hosts wor...
@northwood I lived in Toronto briefly in the early 80s. I grew up in London, ON and have spent most of my time in Kingston since 1997.
Very nice! I've been to that park with all the flowers, and I think I recognize some of the street scenes at the end.
Thank you for trying these tests. This is beyond what I can help with. @wavesequencer please step in. I can't tell if there have been any other c...
This certainly sounds like a MIDI issue rather than an audio issue. Is this happening on every patch? Does it happen on an INIT patch? Have you e...
OK, those are the primary troubleshooting steps for audio output, AND you have already verified that you hear a tone when using the test button, which...
@caldera If I were you I'd start by rebooting the PC, in case the ASIO driver got into an invalid state. If the problem persists, try switching to t...
@chasapple Yes, this is exactly the intended behavior. The load-mode icons at the bottom allow you to specify what happens when you LEFT-click on pa...
@chasapple The usual workflow in this case is: Open the new embedded Unify (the one that has the patch you don't like), and use its patch browser to...
@caldera Make sure you don't have another program running (e.g. a DAW), trying to use the same device.
That's the correct behavior in MIDI/Latch mode. I confirm that Unify 2 doesn't do this. [/quote]
Unfortunately, they don't. It would be wonderful if the "latency" reported by instrument plug-ins were consistently equal to the time it takes the ins...
