Metro and Maudio hardware

Postby jopey » Fri Feb 14, 2003 7:08 am

HI fellow Metro users.
I'm going to upgrade from Metro 5 to Metro 6 soon.
I was wondering if anyone has used Metro 6 with
the Midiman 2x2usb midi box and/or the M-Audio
Delta 1010lt soundcard.
Also....how are the stock effects in Metro and does it
include any instruments (VSTi)
Thanks and Happy VD DAY!!

Metro hanging notes and duplicates

Postby wayne » Wed Feb 19, 2003 5:03 am

I just swithched over from a Mac 8600 modem/printer/scsi setup (where I had no problems at all using Metro) to a Powerbook G3 MAC, USB system with an M-Audio MIDISP0RT 8X8/S interface. I am having lots of problems with stuck notes and duplicate note recording. I have turned all synths to Local Off. I have spent over 2 hours on the phone with the M-Audio Tech and we couldn't figure it out. Do you know of anyone having this problem? Can you shed some light on why this is happening. Thanks.
Wayne :x

Unfortunately I had to return my MIDISport 8x8 and get an edirol 8x8 because the MIDISport driver had some major problems.

USB 2X2usb

MIDI USB:
I'm really pleased with my MidiSport2X2usb and have had no troubles so far. :? I'm only pushing 4 units at this time though. For the cost, ($60-$70) the midi port indicators are nice when troubleshooting your setup. When I first bought it, notes were not shutting off but it turned out to be the synth midi-in cable wasn't plugged in ALL the way. Duh...

As for Effects, there are some MAC Carbonized and Classic VST effects with Metro that I have really come to appreciate lately.
There are lots to choose from...Waves(beautiful but expensive) to Internet freeware(Some are awesome, but user beware :shock: ). Many of the Carbonized effects from the Bias Peak 3 Demo I'm messing with are pretty nice too. I'm still working on that that upgrade....
