I'm trying to use Cakewalk's Dimension Pro, Rapture and Z3ta+ 2.1 in RealBand but none of them will respond to mixer controls (ie. Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus etc)
I'm running Windows 7.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

I believe those controls are for the audio stream on the track, not for specific controllable parameters of the softsynths.

If the synth is inserted into a midi track they should respond.If the soft synth itself is meant to and I would be surprised if it didn't.If you open the midi monitor you'll see when you move a midi fader or control it sends data.
It works here.

Thank you for the responses.
I should mention I also use Garritan Personal Orchestra and it works perfectly. It responds to all mixer controls.
I opened the event viewer and I can see the controller events being sent, but for whatever reason, the Cakewalk Soft Synths are ignoring them, and I am at a loss as to why.

So you've narrowed it down to an issue with the Cakewalk synths. When I get home I'll check them out specifically.

The TTS-1 responds to everything. Dimension only responds to volume.Don't have the others but anyway it's not RB it's the Plugs.

Thanks for your feedback Silverstones. At least now I know it's not something I'm doing wrong.

Those plugins simply may not have those mixer controls mapped to the same cc in the synths. With the DAW I use, it can see all of the controllable parameters for any vst or vsti plugin once the plugin is instantiated in the software. You control them with envelopes, not mixer knobs. It's quite possible there's a whole raft of controllable parms for those soft synths, but accessing them via the mixer controls is not the way that you go about it. For example, look at this review of Dimension Pro: http://digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2006/11/22/review-cakewalk-dimension-pro-software-synth.html?page=2You can see in there you can re-map just about any controller change to any of the nearly countless controls in Dimension Pro. The 'standards' for midi are blurring with soft synths and modern DAW software. Like midi channel 10 being reserved for drums. -Scott
