Getting MIDI from your DAW onto the Deluge is a little weird, but also opens up all kinds of fun possibilities. In this video, we'll see how it works and mess around with some classic Zelda VGM.

The Deluge is the most fantastic piece if kit. It just seems to be very capable at doing pretty much everything. One of the best devices I have purchased.

Jeremy you are a yeoman and a scholar. I'm having so much fun in YT-land watching other people talk about and explore this box. My setup came alive when I got this box and I just want to hug & kiss everyone else out there who "gets it". Don't worry, I'm straight, just HAF rn, and I haven't been this prolific in YEARS. _YEARS_ I tell ya!

@jmvanstight 3 года назад

Perfect, was looking for this to hook up the Deluge to Ableton using the Mixed in Key Satellite Sessions plugin to co-create a track with a friend on the other side of the country. Now I can directly import his Midi Stems! Thnx.

@mbessey 3 года назад

I did something similar when I replaced my Novation Circuit with the Deluge. I used MIDI to transfer my favorite songs from one to the other. No PC involved, of course, but the process was similar. I have sometimes wanted to have better support in the Deluge to directly import MIDI files, but I think almost everyone has a DAW of some sort that can play back MIDI for this sort of work.

@tonytricks 3 года назад

you can import midi into deluge,using the Downrush/midian app

@healthyhappyhero 3 года назад

Any regrets? I have a circuit and it's great, but the sampling on the deluge is very attractive to me.

@mbessey 3 года назад

No regrets. The Deluge can seem kind of overwhelming at first, but it's actually very straightforward to use. Almost all of the shortcuts are screen-printed on the case. Having infinite pattern lengths and arranger mode is much easier to use than chaining patterns on the Circuit is.

@RichardJNeo 2 года назад

Excellent, now I can painstakingly comber my old MPC projects. It’d be good if the Deluge could just read a .mid file directly from the SD card into the sequencer but this will get the job done for now 😁

@yvesb.5190 3 года назад

I just wanted to say THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge with us!! 🤗 I'm also still impressed by how versatile the Deluge is and by how good it sounds! ;-) PS: Would you mind doing a video about how to create templates in Ableton and Deluge, so that one can sequence up to 16 VSTs (sitting on 16 different channels in Ableton) via Deluge? Also, can this be "bi-directional".... e.g. you program a sequence in Deluge and then you add or remove notes on the piano roll in Ableton and Deluge will take these changes into account? (This may be obvious procedure for many of you but I'm still lost when it comes to MIDI). IF such a video has already been made.... thanks to point me in the right direction!! Cheers!!! 😉👌

@GKRGY_music 2 года назад

This is amazing, thank you. However, I wish Deluge had a way to import midi directly from files. Or am I missing it?

@cardboardmusic 3 года назад

I imagine (without going through YT tutorials) if Deluge can receive midi from a DAW on multiple channels, you can also record from the Deluge into a DAW too?

@RedMeansRecording 3 года назад

Midi maybe. Multichannel audio in realtime no.

@cardboardmusic 3 года назад

@@RedMeansRecording Sorry, I forgot to say I meant midi. But come to think about it, Soundcraft has a 12 channel USB multitrack, which shows it would be possible.

@ChillOutVisuals Год назад

@jimlampshady 3 года назад

Talking about midi fun, I downloaded the excellent (and free!) Stochas VST sequencer the other day, which allows you to set the probability of a note sounding, which I used to control a Volca Keys. Very basic, and utterly hypnotic. Does the Deluge also have functionality for random midi sequencing?

Hey Folkz! So the day has come and I'm finally able to load some sweet Donna Summer MIDI onto my Deluge. The only problem is that when I play back from Ableton to record MIDI onto the Deluge, it recieves double tempo.. So instead of 130 it's at 260. What setting do I miss here? Thanks in advance!

@spikemoss 3 года назад

TIL the sound of my childhood theme song was just the init patch

@mbessey 3 года назад

There's a weird kind of feedback loop going on there - early video game sounds were primitive because of hardware limitations. A whole generation of musicians and producers grew up on them, so now companies like Synthstrom make their "init patch" kind of retro chip-tune-ish, which means you can recreate that sound really easily.

@RedMeansRecording 3 года назад

yup! basic waveforms!

@hotelsinus Год назад

i just thinking how to use 2 deluge synth in one track in deluge!.. so i need only one track and two synth track and the one synth track go to two different internal synth,.,., maybe its not possible. but there is a workouround.. or maybe i can route one synth to another track for different effects on it / but same one pattern,.... somehting like splitted output?

@Jebrald0 3 года назад

I wonder if after you set up the midi but before you record the data, save the song as a midi init song for later use.

@ashtomtube 3 года назад

Jebrald0 I think he mentioned in the video that you could indeed save a blank song that is already setup for midi and use it as a template.
