I’ve installed the free SimpArp arpeggiator VST and read the Readme file, in which it states:
This is a MIDI instrument. It does not put out sound! You need to put a plugin behind SimpArp on the MIDI-track or send the MIDI output of the track to another track with a plugin instrument or to an external synthesizer.
Suggested routing:
MIDI KEYBOARD >>>> SimpArp >>>> SYNTHESIZER (PLUGIN) >>>> AUDIO OUT
or
MIDI TRACK >>>> SimpArp >>>> SYNTHESIZER (PLUGIN) >>>> AUDIO OUT
or
MIDI KEYBOARD >>>> MIDI TRACK >>>> SimpArp >>>> MIDI TRACK >>>> SYNTHESIZER (PLUGIN) >>>> AUDIO OUT
Although I understand the concept of routing one VST into another, can anyone tell me how I go about doing this on Podium Free? I’ve tried turning a track into a Group track with a Child track, I’ve put the instrument VST (e.g. mda Piano) as parent and SimpArp as the child (and vice versa!) and get a red error message saying
This device produces audio but the device on the parent track does not process audio
I suspect I’m doing something fundamentally wrong here, so any help would be very gratefully received!
