      Greetings, All.

       

      Loving what I have found here so much that I decided to attempt my first custom, but have hit a solid brick wall and have no ideas where to go from there.

       

      Using;

      Reaper v4.22 (Norton identifies a virus in 3.78 and refuses to allow it to install)

      C3 template

      CAT (current)

      Python v2.78

      Magma C3 v 2.2.0

       

      Here’s the issue. Attempting to author drums on Van Halen’s “When It’s Love”. I’ve completed the chart in Reaper, run CAT to add reductions, etc., and exported the MIDI. Magma, however, complains vociferously about double note-off and Chord Gem errors. Specifically…

      This goes on for a considerable time and then Magma stalls for a while, then finishes with an error creating RBA file.

       

      MIDI Tester doesn’t complain but does send MagmaCompiler into a loop.

      MIDI Cleaner finds no issues either.

       

      I’m lost. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_frown.gif” /> Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

       

      Thanks for your time.

        You need to quantize your notes.

          I did quantize. Perhaps I did it wrong.

            Make also sure your notes have weight (i.e. they are not 0 in lengh).

              I entered them manually using snap to 1/32 grid w/notes=grid. They all show as 32nd notes on the chart.

                  You accidentally lowered velocity (you can see the track tinted in rose). Click on the red line at the bottom of the PART DRUMS track and drag it to the top.

                    Thank you, Farottone. Adjusting the velocity allowed Magma to compile with only a few additional fixes required. Now on to play testing and revision prior to release. Any constructive criticism is most welcome.

                     

                    I still need to learn OD, fills, and rolls, but that will come with time now that I can compile.

                     

                    Thanks again.
