Troubleshooting
Not working? Here are some things to try:
- Is your DAW receiving MIDI from the Reface CS?
- If you are using the Omnisphere Standalone, make sure the MIDI output channel of the Reface CS matches the MIDI channel of the Omnisphere Part you want to control.
- Make sure your DAW is configured to correctly route the MIDI output of the Reface CS to the MIDI channel assigned to the desired Part in Omnisphere.
