MPE Problems with Roli Block

[Lanjazz]

Hi,
I just installed Fender Studio Pro 8 and the Seaboard Block isn't recording properly... If I record it as Audio, you can hear exactly what I did, but if I record it as MIDI, you can see the controls on the track but they don't play. I set the "Reduction Setting" to 0, but nothing changed.
Many thanks

Just clarifying. When you say controls, do you actually mean notes on an instrument track? Do you see the automation curves? Do you hear anything at all?

Is MPE enabled in the plugin window?

What plugin and can you try another controller like a piano instead (same setup). Thx

And maybe this will help:

Thanks. I've written the equipment I'm using in my signature. I think I can see the variations on the MIDI track. I activated MPE on the plugin (Equator2), and while I'm recording, the touch variations are all audible, but when I play the track back, they disappear—not visually, but audibly, as if I hadn't used them.

P.S.
I tried following the instructions in the video. On Studio One 7 (which I haven't uninstalled yet), when you select MPE in the vst window (Equator 2), the 16 midi channels are always selectable, while in the video, when you select MPE, this drop-down menu disappears (midi omni?).

Same issue with other plugins? (Try another Roli).

In regards to the video the same should apply more or less to 8.0.2

Check to see if MPE (not multi channel) is selected in the Roli standalone app settings, although I'm not sure it works for the plugin).

Check your seaboard device settings in studio one has MPE enabled. Only one input is required, no output.

Enabling MPE in the plugin should be straight forward on the drop-down. I have no issue.

I'll pass the buck to somebody else now, I'm off on a contracting job for a while. I have a hunch it's a really obvious setting we are both overlooking.

It works with SWAM and Roli Studio Player.... now I'm starting to wonder if whoever sold me the Seaboard gave me a "modified" Equator 2 serial key. The total price seemed too low. I'll check right away and maybe uninstall it, since I don't use it much anyway.

P.S. No, it's original.

Just to be sure:

You have added your Seaboard Block as a Keyboard (not as Control Surface or Instrument)?

Yes, but thanks for telling me anyway, because I was using an older version of Studio One that didn't have Roli in the keyboard list, and I had created this instrument myself. Now it's there. Nothing has actually changed, but I've tidied things up a bit.
