Reaktor 6 In Logic / OSX

bobmane

i just bought Monark. Installed Reaktor 6 In N Acess > Installed Monark = in both OSX desktop and in Logic Pro I see the MIDI input trun green in top bar but not in bar below that. So, no MIDI input to the synth. I added colors to the attached pic. Note: Kontakt midi and all other midi works system wide and in Logic

I meant Midi Channel 1 in the Logic track where you load Monark.

Or, check if your Oxygen has an option "all" or "omni" for its Midi input and use it.

I don't have Logic, but check my example in Cubase:

I have Monark on channel 2… it does not make any sound.
I need to select either channel "1", either channel "Any" to hear it!

so you helped me figure it out. Logic defaults to ALL but for some reason my oxygen 61 was transmitting on 12. I reset the oxygen 61 then it correctly transmit on 1 + then it works . Many thanks

Alright buddy. Logic user here. I'm not exactly sure I understand your issue though…

Do you want to open Monark in Logic as an AU?

If its a MIDI issue, click the little Mixer Icon (right of Search magnifying glass, top left of Reaktor 6 GUI)

You can see it highlighted in white on the screen cap above.

Below, you'll notice the MIDI Tab selected, next to the OSC Tab. Make sure all that is mapped to your setup properly.

Click the little inverted triangle for a dropdown menu. Navigate to Options. Make sure MIDI keyboard activated is checked.

So far it has been the same in oSX or in Logic. I also noticed in your image and a tutorial on YT that the EDIT button is there. I dont have that.

But in reply to your feedback. It seems all settings are the same as what you have. Note: I got no CC messages though until I turned on AUTO - but still did not play the synth. And where my image is underlined in red does not indicate MIDI in

bobmane

i also have audio and midi settings correct

also…again, i noticed in the video my UI is different .

ui in video:

mine: I have no EDIT button and Properties greyed out

no idea if any of that matters for midi input issue

If you have no EDIT button and greyed Properties, then you are using the Reaktor Free Player (which is the Demo version) and not the Reaktor Full version.

If you have no Midi it is probably because you are on the wrong Midi Channel.
By default, Monark transmit to Midi Channel 1 only.

You can change that, with the Full version, put the Midi Chanel to OMNI and save the ensemble.

But, without the Full version you have to use only Midi Chanel 1 for Monark (and most Reaktor ensembles)

As i mentioned earlier "in both OSX desktop and in Logic Pro I see the MIDI input turn green in top bar but not in bar below that" So I am sending midi signal to Reaktor but not the Ensemble maybe?

System level To my knowledge I am using channel 1:

Thanks for clarifying Free VS Paid, still seems like I should be able to get it working with Free though

I also mentioned with Auto on I see CCs in the UI. Looking closer at that aspect, As seen here I can also record MIDI but no audio

everything / all other VI wor
