vst instrument playback

[Lawrie]

New user, so apologies.... I am recording midi into vst instruments (Presence in particular). Monitoring sounds fine while recording and length of notes in piano roll look fine. Keyboard in track editor sounds fine. But playing back the track jsut makes faint "popping" sounds. It wasn't always like this but as a one-week user I must have changed a setting. Any ideas very welcome please.

A bit more info. If I draw notes into the piano roll they play back ok. Its only the ones I have recorded that fail.

Select one of the clips on the timeline and right click Musical Functions > Delete Notes > Delete Notes Shorter Than ... leave the default setting and click OK. If there are double notes causing it to cut off, that will fix it.

Thanks so much Gray Wolf. I have no idea why that would work, but it did! Do you think I will have to do that every time? There were some overlapping notes on the track, but not all of them.

That's typically caused by having more than one External Keyboard Device assigned to the same Receive From MIDI port, so check those.

Great catch.

Here's a video I made exactly for this problem. It explains why you get these cut off notes and how you can solve it:

Thanks so much Lukas, and also - I understand- for setting up this forum which is a godsend. I started migrating from Cakewalk just last week, so Studio One 7 is a bit overwhelming! Your video explained everything perfectly and I realise now that my input keyboard was probably sending on two channels. I will check that out later but feel very confident….

OK, learned something here.
I'd have guessed it was too low of a sample rate in S1 or a sample rate mismatch in S1 and the Audio Interface.
