FM8 vst3 does not process MIDI CC. Apparently vst2 does...

    I couldn't believe it so I went to test it and the MIDI learn button doesn't even work….

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Tried to open a case. Not sure what else needs explaining here, or if they have a basic ai replying, but the answer I got is:

    I want to make sure I fully understand your question. Could you kindly provide a detailed explanation of the issue you're encountering? It would be fantastic if you could outline the problem in a step-by-step format. Additionally, if you could share any screenshots or a video, that would be incredibly helpful.

    This was in April, now, I try to migrate from Windows to Mac, but Reaper only sees VST3, so this is a big blocker now…

    Is this a Windows thing? Working for me in Reaper on Sonoma

    No, under mac too. What version is your FM8?

    The latest one (at least NA is not offering me any updates)

    Are you using a Kontrol keyboard? Don't forget you need to be in MIDI mode to do this

    I'm using a Studiologic SL88 Studio. It works fine with Kontakt instruments, but with FM8 I cannot even use the sustain pedal (CC64)…

    Sorry not sure why it isn't working for you, but it is working for me, including sustain pedal

    @Kymeia, are you using a x86/x64 or m1-3 mac?

    M1 Max - You?

    Core i9. Might be something with the x86/x64 builds of FM8 both on mac an windows

    Yes might be, it helps to narrow it down

    I do find the MIDI learn button doesn't work consistently in all hosts but I presumed that was because they have different methods of assigning MIDI. For example in Reaper it depresses and goes orange when engaged but Live it doesn't and you need to use the configure panel to do MIDI learn, but it does still work

    The Audio Unit plugin works flawlessly.

    Just noticed, Reaper does see other plugins too, including AU, so all is good for now 😊 at least for me.
