My *assumption* is that this is the "unedited raw MIDI" the virtual devices provide. My *assumption* is that you get a sound playing by pressing a key on your keyboard if as your input channel you select "Impulse Impulse". But if you *like* them, don't kill the messenger! > I will start by just returning my Novation Impulse and getting an Akai instead and see if that helpsįirst off: I don't know those keyboards anyway, so I cannot tell you if playing on them is fun. I am hoping that by the time I come back to Studio One there are better instruments and more keyboard controllers that are easily mapped without having to do hours of research. Neither of us (he is 18yrs old) find the Studio One GUI to be very intuitive and everything seems to be hit or miss when it comes to just making some simple music. Then once I have some more experience I can give Studio One another try.

I have decided to just park Studio One for now and go with FL Studio and an Akai MPK261 so that my son (windows laptop) and I can learn the same stuff and help each other out. I fired up GarageBand and of course didn't even do anything and was able to just start playing virtual instruments with my keyboard. It is funny to me that Novation provides guidance on Studio One in terms of getting the keyboard faders and console buttons to work (via Mackie HUI) but then gives no information about getting the keyboard to work, and there doesn't seem to be any easy "getting started" in Studio One that just gets you playing music via the internal instruments. Marc, thanks for the reply and it makes sense. I hope this helps, and be it but on some moral support side! So in short: From your description, it would seem to me as if your setup is working exactly as it is supposed to be and it is just the one-time-setup that you have to endure. My further assumption is that if you do not use one of those conversion configurations but some "obvious" input device, you may not get your Automap features at all, since - this, again, is my assumption as I do not know your specific hardware - the Automap tool would simply be bypassed. It's not a big thing and will give a good hands-on training in Studio One. I have to do the same with my hardware console. You *may* then have to adjust the mapping manually in Studio One - once - to get the optimum out of your setup. My bet would be on "Automap MIDI" or "Automap HUI". What you want to use as a starting point therefor would be a "conversion" (MIDI mapping) that can be understood well enough by Studio One. For example, "Automap Logic Mixer" might simply be a preconfigured conversion from your keyboard's actual data stream (which might not be MIDI at all, internally) to an "optimized" set of MIDI commands to control Logic's mixing.

In the latter case, a software driver will convert the USB data stream internally to some MIDI data stream.īased on this, what you see in your input dropdown list simply is a choice of "converter configurations", where the vendor of your keyboard has set up various "mappings" for different tools. However, in general, your setup will look like this: Your keyboard is connected to your computer by some kind of MIDI connection, be it through a MIDI controller or USB. So what I have to say may or may not be completely off road.

Preface: I have now about 4 hours of experience in Studio One, yesterday having been my first time around the software.
#AUTOMAP NOVATION IMPULSE DRIVERS MANUALS#
I have searched on Videos and gong through manuals on both products, Studio One and Novation Automap, and nothing is helping me through this. I am tempted to do some research and find a new DAW and keyboard controller that are simpler and proven to work together.

and when I open addictive keys trial I can get my keyboard controller to work right away. I can get sound from Studio One internal instruments like Mai Tai when I use the virtual keyboard and my mouse to clink on the notes, but nothing when I hit my Novation Impulse keyboard controller. but when I go to add a "keyboard" in StudioOne, it shows a bunch of weird options in the "receive from" pull down menu, ranging from stuff I have typed in before, to things I have no idea where they came from, these are my choices in that pull down menu: I get the Novation AutoMap to connect the hardware controller functions of my Novation Impulse Keyboard as the instructions say to use Mackie HUI, that seems to work and shows to be connected after configuring in StudioOne 3.52. Has anyone got these things to work together? I am an experienced computer/software guy and I find these interfaces and configuration guidance on both to be nothing but frustrating.
