Suggestions & improvements • Poly patch container offset

2026-05-04T18:47:47+02:00

I've been trying to use subpatch Poly more for graphical layouts. My components are in the container. Every time poly is applied the containers end up on top of each other.
I would like a Poly setting that offsets the containers from each other in position when poly is applied instead of on top of each other. After that the containers would still be moveable as normal.
The setting might best be in the container properties e.g. "Offset container in Poly" vertical and horizontal pixels. The first poly voice container would stay where it is and the others offset by the offset setting multiplied by the (voice number - 1).
Thanks.

Patching questions • Midi learn only from rack

2026-04-27T02:51:18+02:00

Hi.
I have a midi bus going to each of my racks, (the top patch in each rack has a midi from bus connected to a midi out)
so that all lower patches in the rack get the midi data for that rack.
I want to do midi learn only on the midi data in that rack, but Usine midi learn is global.
Is there any way to have rack specific midi learn ?

If not, this may be something for HH7.

Thanks,
SImon.

Patching questions • sampler et MAJ dynamique des fichiers

2026-04-25T09:45:48+02:00

Bonjour à tous,
J’ai un problème tout bête sur lequel je bloque. J’aimerais que le sampler joue une liste de sons situés dans un dossier. Et si je change les sons dans le dossier, en gardant les mêmes noms (et donc la même adresse dans l'arborescence), que le sampler se mette à jour.
Actuellement, même avec les sampler configurés en lecture sur disque, Usine garde les samples en mémoire et ne joue pas les nouveaux fichiers.

Une solution ?
merci

Patching questions • Sample editor in Usine

2026-04-21T10:46:05+02:00

I believe the sample editor in Usine can read wav and aif files.
It seems Usine would be a good platform to set sample loop points etc.

Can it or a patch do the following:
1. Set and play a loop
2. Add loop start and end cue points to metadata
3. Snap cue to zero crossing point
4. Modify sample to cross fade across loop points.
5. Save the sample in the same or different format with loop cue points in the metadata that can be used by another sampler ?

Thanks.

General discussion • Usine as control surface for Ableton

2026-04-20T14:19:42+02:00

I have a live playing requirement to uses some Ableton Live instruments alongside my VSTs.
Resampling to another VST supported format would be a nightmare,

But I cannot manage without my Usine SDK User midi control module (sliders, knobs etc.) This mainly sends midi to Usine hosted VSTs (but also a few wires to effects).

If I was to run the VSTs in Ableton, how could I send midi (and OSC ?) messages to control
the VSTs in Ableton ? (Note I have Ableton Live standard so Max for Live is not available (and too expensive)).

Ideally 16 midi channels to each channel strip in Ableton.

Can I run Usine with No Audio (to reduce CPU hit) and still process midi ?

I've also seen this https://github.com/ideoforms/AbletonOSC but I suspect you would need Max for Live to do anything with it.

Has anyone done something like this who can offer advice / ideas ?

Thanks,
Simon.

Suggestions & improvements • VST gui speed in Usine

2026-04-11T15:45:53+02:00

When you open a vst UI in Usine interaction is very slow. Better in HH6 but still slow. I imagine this is because the thread is limited on CPU to protect audio which is sensible.

But I would like a button that can be pressed to give high priority to that VST so snappy interaction is possible e.g. when editing patches etc.
