Awesome work, thank you. Just to be sure : would you do the same process and make an expression map unique to each library ? So, one expression map for Jaeger, Nucleus and any other Audio Imperia product, then one expression map for every Cinematic Studio product, and so on, organized by "company" since they usually all use the same engine on their different product ?

@@salvatormundi5184 yes you'd have to essentially make new ones for every patch but if they are from the library, generally you can make one, save it and then load in the saved file and then tweak them for the new patches that have a different set of key switches. There is a company called Babylon Waves that has done a lot of work to make expression maps on many sample libraries for Cubase and other DAW's. However, if you go that route, my advice is to unify their labelling system to match a standard that you want. For instance, if you want a Key switch to say "sustain" or "sus" and you find one from a different library that says "long" instead, then I would change them to say "sus" so that they copy and paste over when you're composing and switching parts to different midi instruments (e.g. CSS to Spitfire).

Thank you for explaining this! I'm using a Cubase template with expression maps already set up, however I've never used expression maps before. I saw demonstrations that used Direction type and I had no idea why it looked so different in my session. Now it makes far more sense. Too bad that the feature feels unpolished! I saw another composer's video about how other DAWs have improved on expression maps compared to Cubase. Anyway! This was really helpful and I appreciate you making it. Much appreciated.

Yes, you're not the first person to say this. They do separate out into difference channels based on their group of instruments. For instance, all violin 1 ensemble goes to one channel, solo violin goes to another, trumpet ensemble goes to one, solo trumpet goes to another. It has worked well for me so far!

Each instrument should be on its own channel, unless when you apply EQ you want the other instruments on that same channel assignment to be effected also. This is not ideal, because most often you would never EQ two instruments the same. Plus, you might want different FX between the two instruments, like verb or delay. So I really don't see the logic of having multiple instruments assigned to the same MIDI channel or same outputs using the 'all' feature.

Hmm, didn't think about that. You would have to create "track" instruments then instead of "rack" which you can then import. Just have the track instruments in a folder on the Project timeline but don't have any MIDI recorded onto them. Instead route a new MIDI track into them for any sequencing.
