Title: How to send reverb message to sfz ?
Post by pipeorganplayer on Jun 20^th, 2007, 7:48am

Hello. I'm french so excuse my english mistakes héhé.

I am using JOrgan software to play organ in real time with soundfonts loaded in sfz (soundfont player). I have a problem in keeping the ReverbSend message transmitted by my Casio WK-3700, which I use as a masterkeyboard.

When I use my keyboard directly in sfz, the reverb is transmitted. But when playing with the midi virtual port plugged between JOrgan and sfz, I can't hear is no more reverb.

Here is the configuration I use:

WK-3700 --> M-Audio midisport 2x2 (port B)

port B --> Midiyoke NT 1 --> JOrgan

Then Midiyoke NT2 choosed as output in JOrgan and as input in sfz

I think some information are deleted in the JOrgan processing operations, because in the manual properties, I can choose only between NOTE_ON (chosen actually) and POLYPRESSURE (?)

So, this is my question: I wood like to know how to apply a reverb to the messages transmitted by the midiyoke NT 2. I tried using The data mapping options :

When input matches:

Channel: any
Event type Ctrl
Ctrl# min:91 max:91
amount min:-1 max:-1

Set output to

channel: match input
Event type: Ctrl
Ctrl# min:91 max:91
amount min:100 max:100

But it does not work.

In summary, I just want to add reverb to musical notes coming from a midi port.

Thank you for your help.

[Edit]
I have non soundblaster-like audio card, so I use Asio4all drivers

What your mapping says is:
"When I receive a CC#91 message, send a CC#91 message."
That's effectively a "no operation" in MIDI OX.

You've said you don't think CC#91 messages are being sent but you've not said why. Are you seeing them in MIDI OX's monitor or status displays?

I don't know how to display all the messages...

But I finally found a method. I have replaced sfz with Synthfont. And with this soundfont player I can use VST effects. So my problem is solved. I use Classic Reverb from Kjaerhus Audio (free reverb VST).

Now it works just fine ! Better than sfz because I can now choose the environnement style (hall, church...).

Thanks though for having answered my post.
