Hello everybody,
I'm really new here, I just created a profile. I'm also new to music production, and have questions that might sound very basic every day ! I hope I'm posting this topic at the right place, if it's not the case don't hesitate to tell me or move it...
I bought a Rev2 a few months ago and I explore and enjoy it more and more each day.
That being said, I sometimes also use virtual instruments (Ableton / Native Instruments) in my productions, which I control either with the computer keyboard (not great), or with my Akai APC Key 25. The thing is that playing with the amazing keyboard of the Rev2 is way more comfortable... So I sometimes use it as a MIDI controller, linking it directly to my computer via USB cable.
Two days ago I was using Monark from NI, controlled by the Prophet. And I realised that it wasn't velocity sensible (though the Rev2 is of course, when controlling the intern patches of the synth).
Thus, my questions are : is it possible to control a plugin / virtual instrument with the Prophet AND have the velocity sensibility working ? Or is just that virtual instruments are basically not velocity sensible ? And would it also be possible to assign some of the knobs of the Rev2 to particular effects in the DAW ?
I know it may sound strange to use such a good synth as a controller, but to me it would be really convenient to extend its use and enjoy the pleasure of playing its keyboard while using other sounds ;-)
Thanks a lot for your advice on this.
