Aida Sound Users Forum

Hi Silvano,

I think this would be really great in a PDF that the user can download with the manual when they purchase your software. Not all users go to the forum and if they do it might be only after they have a problem.

Yes, good idea!
Thank you.

Dear Dtouch team,

Thank you very much for the exellent tutorial, very useful. Since I very often use vst instruments, I wanted to have a macro adding automatically a specific instrument. Based on your totorial, I managed to do this for the Kontakt 5 player (see attachement) - seems to work, but maybe you can double check. Might be also useful for others. Would be also good to have this macro for a specific instrument within Kontakt, but I haven't managed to get that far.

Best,
Harry

harry, please look at this improved Macro: Main differences between this and yours:

• You were using absolute mouse coordinates, while this Macro is using relative mouse coordinates (important!!!)
• This Macro is using Cubase KeyCommands, instead of Windows shortcuts (it works even if a user changed some shortcuts in Cubase)
• This Macro is easily configurable (customizing the first Macro Command) to add N Tracks, open a different Instrument, and adjust the final sleeping delay: you can easily duplicate and edit it, making it open a different Instrument!

Please test it and let us know if it works for you.

Unfortunately, since the Kontakt GUI is so complicated, we currently don't have any idea about how to properly write a Macro that does this.

This Macro is easily configurable (customizing the first Macro Command) to add N Tracks, open a different Instrument, and adjust the final sleeping delay: you can easily duplicate and edit it, making it open a different Instrument!

So I try to edit this for another instrument, for me your macro open Kontakt 5, in your macro "choose instrument" y=158 & x=41, so how can I edit this to open another instrument in my plugin list ? I try with x=39 or x=37 and still open Kontakt..... I'm litlle bit lost here......
Thank you.

You mustn't think in terms of coordinates. You must think in terms of the name of the instrument.
Edit the first command line of the macro and insert the text of the name of your instrument. It is easier than what you can imagine.

Yesssssss..... it's work....

Thank you..........

Thank you very much dtouch team! Works perfectly

Thanks. This is really impressive. An fx plugin on first free slot will be the next ninja level skills!
