I know this a bit off the beaten path.and it'd be great if they'd release this thing in AAX-64, but it doesn't look like they ever will. Still just played the original loop I started with, but no data from Cthulhu. I tried that as well in PT, but that didn't work either. That's why in Reaper it worked just fine, sending the MIDI out directly into the next instrument in the chain on the Reaper instrument track.

Instead it relies on the MIDI routing of the host to take care of that. I'm guessing that Patchwork can't send MIDI out data?Ĭthulhu itself doesn't have a MIDI out setting nor a place to tell it 'send MIDI out to '. However, its NOT sending the Cthulhu MIDI arp out. The original whole note 4 chord loop plays Xpand that way just fine, so I know the MIDI signal from that track to the Xpand track is routing just fine. I sent the MIDI output from the instrument track Cthulhu was on to the track Xpand was on using the MIDI in/out settings on the instrument tracks.

I didn't put any midi notes on that track. I set up Xpand and called up a generic pad. However, what I can't do is route the MIDI output from that to another VI on a different instrument track. I put in a simple 4 chord midi loop, 1 measure each chord, and Cthulhu did its thing to that and I was able to run through several arp options using the built in tone generator on Cthulhu to hear what it was doing. I also tried to host it on a PT instrument track using Blue Cat Patchwork 1.1 synth version. I can create a midi track in PT, send it to play the Reaper instrument (Cthulhu + synth) and use Rewire to send the audio back to PT. To do that there, I instantiate it on an instrument track in Reaper and then put a synth right underneath it on the same track. I can get it to work fine using Reaper inside PT. I downloaded the demo version to see if it might work in PT using Patchwork. Cthulhu is neat little chord/arp generator that can do all kinds of creative things to a midi sequence. It is not AAX compatible, so I downloaded the VST 64bit version. Been experimenting with Cthulhu arpeggiator and trying to get it to work in PT.
