So for anyone trying to get this to work in 2022 with Waveform 11 Free, Collective is not longer included in the software and you need to purchase it. It does come with a Virtual 4 Oscillator Synth which can be found under 4OSC the same place the video suggests finding Collective
Can I just say THANK YOU! I've been tearing my hair out trying to get keyboard sound out! The Waveform user guide doesn't explain it clearly past the point of selecting output for MIDI. It then goes on to say search browser, which could be anywhere. You've saved my sanity
How do I use my computer keyboard as a MIDI controller? I followed the steps but there's a message coming up saying "MIDI events from this device aren't being played because the track does not output to a MIDI device or contain any soft-synthesizers. To make the track output to a MIDI device, select the track and use its destination device list". The notes from the keyboard show up on the screen but there is no sound. I'm using the Waveform11
Thank you so much! This is working for Tracktion 7, with Nektar Impact GX 61 as well. I selected Impact GX61 from the drop down menu. Many thanks again!!! ❤
I set up my Roland FP-10 keyboard on Waveform. The keys are lighting up along the bottom and sound is coming out of my piano when I press them but no input is happening on the track itself?
System: Waveform 11.5 on Windows 10. Using a Behringer UMC22 interface and loaded their divers which are ASIO4allv2. Using the built in Micro Drum Sampler 808 drum kit, 1) I get only piano sounds on the pads. I have gotten drum sounds a couple of time but reverts back to piano almost always with no rhyme or reason no matter the input or output settings, reinstalling the plugins etc. I am pulling my hair out. Ideas? 2) Other times even the piano sounds come out laptop speakers instead of thru interface even with output for interface selected. Ideas?
@@astrid440 yes, but might won't like it, I ended up paying the upgrade, snd everything got fixed, now today is black Friday, and they selling the waveform upgrade for cheap.
My problem was one of the knobs on my mpk. It was automatically assigned to volume and the other one to panning. I was really wondering why it automatically assigned, even though i didn't want it to. I haven't figured out how to remove it.
How do I use the instrument from the midi keyboard I'm using? For example: My keyboard has a drum sound, how would I be able to use that in waveform? I'm using the free version.
Is there a way to remap what buttons on your midi device hit what notes? I have a midi pad and the button layout it has by default on tracktion makes no god damn sense
i selected tried to insert the collective but its only giving me options for ''waveform'' and ''plugin racks'' and no ''tracktion'', a collective is in none of the previous options too, what do i do?
hey uhm i have a problem, i wanna use my midi controller to control my plugins. in my case an harmonizer by eventide and amplitube 5, but i cant control amplitube when my first plugin is active... how do i fix that?
Can somebody help me, I'm getting grips to the daw, and some things I've worked out from my previous daw, but for some reason my EastWest sample library, when entered as a plugin does not playback. It does in the OPUS editor, but doesn't when you're playing back in the actual DAW. I've tried changing the midi outputs but that doesn't help.
Hi. This is causing me a lot of problems, I need help  when I record the bass with the MODO BASS plugin, hitting the correct beat, when I finish recording, the notes get out of sync and are heard before I played them. I play along perfect on beat and after hitting stop I watched the track move up exactly one beat. The worst of all, is that if I put them correctly manually, later, when I export, again the bass is out of sync. Please help, I don't know what to do.
Can I record the midi output of another vst onto another track like say if Im using EZ Keys, Instachord or an arp and want to record the midi theyre making onto another traxk. Can i do that?
I tried to enable the port of Seaboard block with Waveform 8, but this is not happening. A pop up shows "could not open midi port". Could you clarify on how I might have to set up the Block to use with the DAW.
I'm using a Korg Minilogue and I've got up to date drivers, I've connected it to Waveform, and yet waveform isn't detecting that I'm playing, so I can't record anything - can anyone help?
Can we set our midi controller on multiple channel at a time now? Cause it seem that i can't in T6. I's use to be able to switch between channel and play right away and now i have to select my controller as midi input every time i switch instrument. Tell me I'm missing something here cause i find that really weird if this is how it is in Waveform.
Other than that Waveform/tracktion is probably the most intuitive daw I've tried. That's why i say it's weird to have to select my midi input every time cause it's not intuitive at all imo. Anyways, hopefully I'll find a option to fix that when i buy Waveform. Thanks.
Installed the free version in order to test. OS is Mojave. I scanned Au Plugins. Loaded 8 random 3rd party Plugins while playing. I hit stop. Press play and first thing is that all Plugins became yellow and inactive
Sounds strange - try relaunching the app. The scan will check for ANY plugins on your system - its not unusual for some to get flagged if they are not the correct bit count.
@@jameswoodburn127 1) i am talking All 8 were deactivated. Ozone, Process audio and such.2) is it possible to hide all Synths as a Plugin Category so it does not show up?
Hi there. Have you installed the Keylab software and is the device recognized by your computer? If so and you're still having trouble, please contact a support agent at tracktion.zendesk.com

Hey I’m trying to make some music and I wanted to know if you could help me out ?
@@danny6691 I'm kind of a novice myself but I'll offer suggestions if I know how to help
This is what I needed.
They don't offer a basic piano for free?
so foul
After 2 hours of wasting time to get my head around it I read the comments and realised the sounds are no longer free. Unistalling now.

Collective doesn't come with Waveform 11 - you have to purchase it. Try others like Surge and Podolski - both free.
I can’t hear my midi even after following all these steps. Idk what I’m doing wrong :(
Awesome, I finally know how to select instruments. Pretty fundamental when getting started :)
its taken me an hour to figure out how to connect my guitar
useful for windows laptop recording!

And does your laptop is able to read your piano?
