Question

Hello everyone,

I'm composing some music for solo contra-bassoon that will be mic'd with effects pedals. The contra-bassoonist will be turning the pedals on and off during the performance, and I have plug ins that can emulate these effect in NOTION, but I can't figure out a way to have the effects turn on and off at the right times during play back in Notion.

Does anyone know if this is possible? And if so, how?

Thanks!

It is not possible to automate VST effects in Notion.  If you are working with a VST instrument, you can use custom rules to change patches based upon key switches.  You can also send cc data to a VST instrument.  If you are just working with VST effects though, that is where you will not be able to automate them.  For information on working with the rules UI in Notion, you will want to take a look at the following article from our knowledge base.
