a little bug that affects all CA VSTs (not sure where else to post this)

Surrealistic MG-1 Plus is a loving recreation of the Realistic MG-1, an oddball synthesizer sold by the 1980's consumer electronics giant Radio Shack.

a little bug that affects all CA VSTs (not sure where else to post this)

Post by wayfinder »

Hi! All the Cherry Audio VSTs have a QWERTY keyboard feature, and it's a little buggy on non-QWERTY keyboards. I have a QWERTZ layout, and when I play a note that's mapped to the Z key, two notes get played since the Z key is also mapped to OCT-, so there's a second Note On event a little after the first, an octave down. Only the second note receives a Note Off though, so that's sort of annoying :)

Hi,

That's why it's called the QWERTY keyboard. :wink:

But seriously, I'll pass your comment along to the team.

Hi, I can confirm that problem. I also use a QWERTZ keyboard. It took me a while to find out, why played octave decreases unexpected.
A solution would be nice.

Hello
Same thing here - not all keywords are made Qwerty, and those are probably a minority. Adapting to the keyboard layout in use is very standard and absolutely required to make this usable. I'm surprised this is not implemented by default.
Thanks in advance
