A Windows customer recently reported a problem where they found that they could not listen to their music with apps like Spotify or Pandora while using Gig Performer even though this seemed to work when using other audio hosts or DAWs. If you encounter this situation,...
Check the properties of all of your widgets in the rackspace. Also check the Global MIDI controls. You will most likely discover that you accidentally "learned" either a Note On or a Note Off event. When a MIDI event is learned for the purpose of...
A customer reported that Gig Performer would not learn mixer faders in Superior Drummer 3 (SD3). Thanks to some help from Toontrack which we greatly appreciate, we discovered that SD3 requires an extra step. You cannot simply move any parameter in SD3 and have it...
A customer, understandably panicked, contacted us to report that after installing the latest update, when he ran Gig Performer he just got an empty rackspace. Also, Gig Performer started a complete scan of his plugins as if they had never been seen before. It was...
June 12th, 2017 The latest update of Arturia's wonderful plugin collection has changed the way that they restore the state of their plugins when reloaded. Consequently the plugins do not correctly respond to a request from Gig Performer 1.6 to restore their state and so some...
