Topic: MIDI recording in VSTi mode
Bonjour,
When I use Pianoteq as VSTi in Reaper, the MIDI recording of Pianoteq is disabled.
I would like it to be enableable.
Is there a way to do this ?
Thanks !

Confirmed but is it a bug in Reaper?
Effectivement... mais est-ce un bug de Reaper ?

Bonjour Gérard,
With the last version Pianoteq 6.7.3 pro of June, used as vsti x64 in the last version of Reaper x64 v6.12c, I have no problem to record in Reaper what I play on the keyboard and export it by the rest in midi format. On the other hand, in fact, the "standalone" recording function of pianoteq is not present, which is probably normal when Pianoteq is used as a vsti.

Merci Luc et bm.
Je sais que ce n'est pas un bug de Reaper mais bien le fonctionnement normal de Pianoteq en VSTi.
Je n'ai jamais eu aucun problème pour enregistrer en MIDI dans Reaper.
Ce que je veux faire :
Quand je suis dans Reaper avec Pianoteq en VSTi, ne pas être obligé de lancer l'enregistrement, mais que Pianoteq enregistre et stocke mes improvisations jusqu'à ce que je sois satisfait, et alors mettre mes petits bouts de MIDI dans ma piste de Reaper pour les retravailler.
Néanmoins depuis hier j'ai trouvé une solution :
Quand ma session Reaper/Pianoteq est ouverte, je désactive l'enregistrement, je lance une instance de Pianoteq standalone (avec le focus sur Pianoteq par dessus la fenêtre Reaper) et je joue...Ensuite je fais un glisser-déposer de mes fichiers .mid depuis l'archive Pianoteq jusqu'à ma piste Reaper, et voilà...
En fait c'est comme ça que je procède depuis longtemps avec Pianoteq, sauf que je viens de comprendre que je pouvais avoir Reaper et Pianoteq ouverts en même temps...
Thanks Luc and bm.
I know that it is not a bug in Reaper but the normal behaviour of Pianoteq as VSTi.
I've never had any problems recording to MIDI in Reaper.
What I want to do:
When I am in Reaper with Pianoteq in VSTi, not have to start Reaper recording, but that Pianoteq records and stores my improvisations until I am satisfied, and then drag my small bits of MIDI in my Reaper track to rework them.
Nevertheless since yesterday I found a workaround:
When my Reaper/Pianoteq session is open, I disable recording, launch a Pianoteq standalone instance (with the focus on Pianoteq over the Reaper GUI) and play...Then I drag and drop my .mid files from the Pianoteq archive to my Reaper track, and voilà...
Actually that's the way I've been doing it for a long time with Pianoteq, except that I just realized that I could have Reaper and Pianoteq open at the same time...

That's an excellent workaround! The only problem I've found with importing midi from Pianoteq to Reaper is that sometimes the tempo is wrong - I'm not sure how to fix that.

I didn't get the opportunity to notice that.
Anyway it's not a problem for me, the first thing I do when I import a file from Pianoteq into Reaper is changing the playback speed.

Re: MIDI recording in VSTi mode
The tempo thing doesn't bother me too much either. I mostly use standalone for rough sketches, if I'm doing anything tempo-critical I'll just stay in Reaper.
