Record Cantor into Genome?

Asked on the Genome forum but there is a much larger base of knowledge here. The help/manual for genome is almost useless. Anyone know how to setup everything so I can play a synth like SampleTank or Thumbjam with Cantor and record the midi into Genome for editing and applying the CCs that Cubasis ignores. Have MidiBridge but ...

  • Good question! I think Cantor uses some pretty complicated MIDI wizardry and I also heard its on a 2 week countdown from being axed from the AppStore... Still, it's amazing and I'd like to know too.

    My first guess would be this MIDI path: Cantor out--Genome In--Genome out-- to synth. That way your synth only ever hears what Genome is receiving/ sending onward.

  • Why on earth would Cantor be axed?
    What I can't figure out is how to use the record function in Genome.

  • From Rob Fielding on twitter last week:
    @rrr00bb: Apple called me (literally) on use of pressure sense in my Cantor app; has two weeks to live, and I no longer have a mac to fix it. oh well.

    ... Bummer, eh? Someone please remind me how to back up my apps, preferably without mentioning the iT&#$ word...

    Cantor won't disappear from your device just because it's no longer in the App Store. In fact, it means you won't have to worry about anything but deliberately deleting it.

  • PaulB, Ya, I know, but it's one of those apps that in the event of having to wipe my iPad and start fresh with iOS, I would be so bummed to realize I didn't have Cantor backed up somewhere and no longer in the AppStore.

    Anyway, back to topic: how to get Genome recording Cantor?

    Got it! sort of.
    Start genome, cantor, Animoog

    Set Animoog to receive on channel 1 or whatever from genome

    In genome set midi to channel one, no synch, echo on.
    create a blank pattern on the track/channel you pick set the pattern length to desired number of bars.

    Start song mode. Create as many song mode blocks with the target pattern as the number of bars you set. Remember song mode blocks are 1 bar. 4 bars = 4 song mode blocks. Set the song loop indicators around the blocks.

    Hit play. Go into the blank pattern and hit record.

    Go to cantor set the channel. Jam away.

    Back to Genome. Hit stop. Cantor leaves a bunch of midi notes. Kind of puzzling. But plays back correctly.

    Tried it with Musix Pro, my second favorite controller. And it works beautifully with no weird looking extra midi notes, Pitch bend?, recorded.

    Note: Cantor does not show up as an input in genome but Musix Pro does.

  • Yep...the only thing I was doing wrong was not hitting play after record. Works great. I opened MidiVision (same dev as MidiBridge) to see what all the extra events are, and they're all various CC messages. I won't bother describing them, since they'll vary, depending on how you have Cantor config'd.
