  1. Hi lilfish,

    You need to tell MixPad where to find the gsnap plugin.

    1. Open MixPad and click on 'Options'
    2. Go to the VSTs tab
    3. Inside the table called 'VST Paths' you should see a list of the places MixPad will look for plugins. Note, if there are no places listed, then you need to add one.
    4. Place the GSnap.dll you downloaded into one of the paths mentioned in Step 3. 
    5. Click on the Fx button on one of the MixPad tracks. MixPad should start scanning the paths you specified in Step 3 looking for VSTs. If it doesn't do this, then click the 'Refresh VST' button in the effect dialog

    Please let me know if you need further help.

    Regards,

    Ben

  2. Hi Skylark,

    I will certainly raise a suggestion to add DCT as an output format for Switch. 

    In the meantime, you should be able to use WavePad or Switch to convert the multi-channel files into a Stereo or Mono file (not DCT, but mp3 or other) with all the 8 channels allocated to either the left or right. So you won't be missing any audio. This is the default behaviour for both WavePad and Switch so you shouldn't need to do anything special.

  3. Hi Blando,

    Sorry you're having troubles. I would encourage you to lodge this directly with our support team at https://www.nch.com.au/support/index.html. The issue sounds complex and better suited to technical support rather than community support.

    Would you mind also giving me a few details about your setup? What kind of hardware (audio interface) are you using to record? What version number of MixPad do you have? 

    Regards,

    Ben

  4. Hi gscrutch,

    When you say that playback is in mono, do you mean that the exported project (eg mp3) is producing a mono file or that the project itself is playing back in mono?

  5. Hi Mitch,

    Looks like there may be a small bug if you are trying to delete the start of a clip in this manner. You can get around it by using "Cut" instead (Ctrl - X). I'll get it fixed for the next version.

    Thanks for your feedback.

    Regards,

    Ben

  6. Hi Edd,

    Yes it is possible. While recording just hit the Bookmark button or the shortcut key (Ctrl-B) and then enter the name of the bookmark (or just accept the default). Recording should continue without interruption.

  7. Hi Jeon Jongin,

    For acciaccatura and appoggiatura grace notes right click on the note you want to add a grace note to and go to the "Add Grace Note" menu item. You can also convert a note into a grace note by using the "Grace Note" menu item.

    As for arpeggio symbols, we do not have them yet. But they are on our list of symbols to add. They should be available in a coming update soon.

  8. Hi Miele,

    Ok, I understand. MixPad can't apply effects on the input bus for monitoring - it is something we are working on adding in a release soon.

    Thanks Ben.  Are we also going to add multi-channel editing to the Mac version - since it already works in the Windows version?

    Yes, it will make its way into the Mac version in one of the upcoming releases.

  10. Hi Guys,

    As of version 8.42 of WavePad, you can now do simple editing on individual channels. At the bottom of each file window is a new button you can use to enable separate channel editing. You also need to be select the view mode that shows the channels stacked vertically. Note that not all operations are supported here yet.

  11. Hi taylordad,

    What are the latency settings on your audio interface? You may like to try increasing it slightly and see if that helps.

    What are other tracks do you have playing back while you are recording? Do any of these have a effects applied?

    Regards,

    Ben

  12. Hi Kurosuccwa,

    It sounds to me like you have some sort of noise gate in place. Do have any effects added to any of your tracks? Does any component of your hardware have any processing effects enabled? Some mixers offer a range of things like built in compressors and gates which could produce this issue. Even some mics. If you can give me some details about your setup I can try and help you troubleshoot it further.

    Regards,

    Ben

     

  13. Hi Carrie99

    MixPad applies a limiter only at the stage where the signal would distort, there is no way to turn this off. I would suggest reducing your recording level to avoid limiting and then use a compressor to reduce the dynamic range and increase the signal to a level you're happy with. If you can describe what type of signal you are trying to record I can see if can offer you some other tips.

  14. Hi Weespermopje,

    This just means that you haven't set your *playback* device to use your Tascam. Click the Options button on the main MixPad screen and go to the "General" tab. Here you should find a place to set the playback device. Set this to your Tascam and you should be ok to go.

  15. Hi Shosty,

    You may want to consider using the Clip Manager window. You can find it on the tools tab. You can then order your clips by track (give your tracks different names so they don't just all say 'untitled') and then you can select the clips you want from there by using 'Ctrl-left click'. I think this should be easier and less error prone than your current method.

    I will also look at adding some other alternatives too.

    Thanks for your feedback.

    Regards,

    Ben
