Guys,
Desperate help needed. Here's the issue:
I have GigaStudio Solo routed via re-wire to cubase 3.x (no GSIF involved).
I'm outputting through echo mia in cubase.
When I press a note, either on the keyboard, or with the mouse on the onscreen
giga keyboard the note sounds, but then cuts off before the sustain.
It doesn't matter which sample library I use, the latency setting, midi or
non midi. It always cuts off the note after about 1 second.
This is on an HP Athlon 64 with 3GB of RAM, and it all used to work fine.
All I want to do is lay down some 2 track piano, and I can't get it to work.
HELP
Thanks
Chuck

Hi Chuck,
Is it doing this in stand alone mode too?
Is it the most current build of Giga?
Try while in stand alone mode to disable the Mia's MIDI ports.
Also in Cubase while not having Giga running disable the Mia's MIdi
outputs so that only Gigaports are being used.
See if that helps.
You are launching Cubase first when using Giga in rewire mode correct?

Hi Chris,
It doesn't do it in standalone mode.
It's the most current build of giga
I'm launching cubase first
I will try the other suggestions later
Thanks for your help

I'm open to suggestions... I need decent piano sounds. That's it.

HI Chuck,
O course this will be open for debate but these are the ones I've heard
that were descent.
Steinberg Grand 2
Ivory
NI Akoustic Piano
There are others but haven't heard them.
Ivory and Akoustic Piano are the most varied but Ivory is very system
intensive. All of them run as either DXi or VSTi so they are far more
integrated into Sonar , Cubase etc.
Not sure if the MIA is fully multi-client audio and Midi but you might
try setting up Giga as a stand alone with Sonar as the default sequencer
for Giga and se if it works.

Chuck,
As a Life flong Giga user, I can honestly state,that your best bet is to
Get NI Kontakt 2.x..
Kontakt can play back your Giga programs, AND even convert them (super easily)
inside of it's app.!!
As well as, you can use Kontkt as a regular VSTi inside of Cubase instead
of havig to deal with Rewire( Which is just above OK ) in the Steingbege
apps..Surprisely (Rewire) implemented very well in Pro Tools (M-Powered,LE,
HD).. Who knew!!
I even purchased he new Giga VSTi (GVI) and it's just a little better than
Giga 3.. Native Instruments have really done a bang up job with Kontakt 2.x..Smooth..
AND it can stream from disk..

I think about 10 out of every 10 Giga users I know say the same thing about
Giga - get Kontakt (or at least something besides Giga).
I don't use Giga, but will second Lamont's suggestion for Kontakt 2 -
excellent sampler, and it does load Giga files as easily as native Kontakt
files.

Bottom of page. Not Ivory, but not bad.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the input. I ended up getting some kind of virtual asio driver
for giga from a place called FXMAX i think.
The other thing I ended up doing was switching audio priority to HIGH in
cubase.
Now it's working fantastic, and I'm able to set the MIA latency to 64 samples,
and EVERYTHING works!
My 7 year old son helped me pull the preamps and mics out of the closet and
wire them up last night. We also hooked up the headphone amp, and found a
couple sets of cans and got them working.
We installed groove agent and B4, and they both work great too.
We did some testing and I had absolutely no problem, or latency playing giga,
groove agent, B4 with a couple live mics going.
It was great having an assistant. He helped me get all the level checks
and set up a default cubase template exactly how I want it. Next step is
to haul out the ampeg and les and get that setup.
Since I stopped using paris, the entire recording exercise has been nothing
but utter frustration for me, to the point where I haven't recorded in years.
Last night I was suspicious that it was all really working, so I powered
off and rebooted, starting up from scratch about 10 times. It's all cool.
Thanks
Chuck

Yeah, I'm not really a fan of giga, or halion. Unfortunately they are the
only samplers I own right now.
Cash wise I'm not really in a position to switch, but when I am I will try
kontact.
Thanks guys.

Kontakt was classic NI work. Version 1 was buggier than midsummer Memphis
midnight, and v. 2 was solid as a rock. I have NI Komplete on both my laptop
and desktop music computers. Kontakt is the main sampler I use.

yeah. version 1 was all 2 buggy. probably due to the fact that NI had not
figured out disk streaming..

IIRC, and I'm pretty sure I do, Kontakt was one of those NI things that they
basically bought in one piece from an outsider. Like they did with Absynth.
I know where a whole lot of the Kontakt sample library comes from and it
ain't Berlin. Anyway, after they bought the sampler, with their money off
the table they (quite sensibly) wanted to ship something to start getting
a return on the investment. So the first version was pretty ugly, and it
took some time for them to get things straightened out in the code.
In contrast, the things that originate in house, the stuff that guys like
Michael Kurz are doing from scratch, that stuff seems to ship ready for prime
time.

I thought it was Yellowtools that provided the original Kontakt lib. Some
VSL is in the K2 lib, but just samplings of the full lib.
