MusicBee Wishlist / Re: (Midi Control) a simple and unique wish

« on: May 03, 2021, 02:50:34 PM »

I am longtime user of a MIDI Controller for my Lightroom.
Now, also Voicemeeter is controlled over my MIDI controller.
Next Stop is MusicBee.

One piece of software looks promising as a simple solution.

Midikey2key

Transforms MIDI Signal into Keyboard Commands (MusicBee listens to them)

Plugins / Re: VST Effects Plugin

You may want to try this version if you are having problems with certain VST's and MusicBee.

Yeeha! Using this bass_vst.dll it´s up and running ...

Thanks for your answer.

Hi nepanitukka:  The runtime error (I assume you were trying to install VS 2010 C++) was just because you already have a newer version of Visual Studio runtimes installed.  I'm not sure if the latest VS is backwards-compatible to plugins built with 2010, but Windows 10 has the Microsoft "Universal CRT" which to my understanding allows projects that were built with older redists to run.  So, we'll leave that one alone for now.

yes, was trying to install the runtime (in the XP days you had to install all versions that were needed by different programs) - Didn´t know about the "universal CRT"

1.  In Prefs/Plugins, does vst host show as being enabled (if it is, a "disable" button should show)?

Yes - there is a "disable" button

2.  In the 'source folder for the VST plugins" box below, is the correct path to the folder containing bs2b_vst.dll indicated?

Yep

3.  If any of the above needed to be done, save afterwards and restart MusicBee.

Yep - restarted many times

4.  In Prefs/Player/Equaliser & DSP(button on lower right)/Equaliser & DSP Settings page, does bs2b_vst.dll show up in the list box of DSP Plugins?  If so, check the box next to it;  then, double click it to bring up its GUI and make any adjustments you require.  Be sure its box stays checked.  Exit the DSP window, Save, restart MB just for good measure.

No! it´s just the standard DSP Plugins ...

I tried also to set my standard VST Plugins folder in MB ... But also there - none of the VST plugins are showing up under Prefs/Player/Equaliser & DSP

Any luck now?  I have the bs2b_vst.dll installed (MusicBee 3.2.6856, Windows 7SP1 32-bit), and it works for me (I use it to apply some Meier crossfeed for headphones).  However, you should know that VST support on MB is a bit "twitchy", in that if you are using other VST plugins at the same time, it can cause a fail in one or the other (or not).  And there are cases where some plugins simply won't work at all.  But as I say, this one does for me, so hopefully it will for you too despite our different OS platforms.

The crossfeed is what I am looking for ... anyone else is running this on 64BitWIN10?

No luck for now.

I tried also deinstall, delete and reinstall of the mb_VST.dll and bass_vst.dll ...

............

Which versions of the two dll´s are you using? I picked them here in the thread ...

I put mb_VST.dll in the plugins folder
and bass_vst.dll in the main MB folder

I am running WIN10 64Bit - MB 3.2.6827

on trying to install the Runtime Package i got an error "newer version of this ... is already installed".

further ...

Set the VST plugins directory to: C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\MusicBee\Plugins\VST (this is where MB is installed)
and put bs2b_vst.dll there (was looking for a convolver for my DT1990Pro)

started MB new many times now ...

VST Host shows up in the settings/plugins section, but no stereo-to-binaural effect shows up.

What am I missing?

thanks a lot!

adding the highlight cloumn helps a lot ;-)

Rule:
All | title | is | actual title

gives me a nice green square - can live without the highlighted bar for the moment

You'd better talk to the skinner as that skin is un-editable.

un-editable as in "highlighting rules" do not work in this template?

(tried to highlight all - bitrate - smaller than - 192k  and it did not work)

hi there,

maybe noob question:
where and how can I set up those rules?

I´d really like to change duophonic skin´s highlighting color

and the thingy with the small speaker icon is also very annoying for me

so here I see the solution in front of my eyes and don´t know how to implement it.

Any help?

Plugins / Remote looses connection - doesnt update after screen off

« on: February 28, 2014, 10:46:37 AM »

hi there,
musicbee remote is running fine.

one thing though - after a while (screen off, playing several songs) - when i wake up my phone again - music bee is no more reacting on input from remote - also remote is not up to date - still showing the file, that was played last time the screen on the phone was active -

my solution for the moment - settings - manage connections - choose computer - the it updates again ...

anyone else having that issue?
any solutions?

or is there a need for an "Actualize" button ... (sending the app to sleep when not in use saves quite a bit of battery i guess)

Greetings

in den Einstellungen sind die Schaltflächen unten

1. "Übernehmen"
2. "Speichern"
3. "Schließen"

1. find ich ok
2. Speicher und schließt
3. sollte die nicht besser "Abbrechen" heissen?

yep - browsing would be great -

8 minutes wouldn´t be acceptable for must users, also not for me.
(i am also at 16000 tracks)

for the start it would be fine to browse without covers

Genre and Artists

your idea with "get artist, albums, tracks" is very good and blazingly fast at my place,
maybe could be implemented accordingly for browsing ...

still i´d like to browse more, than to type everything in.

nice piece -

normally i am using foobar which was to much of a hazzle for most of my friends to set up

this seems to turn out costomizable and way easier to handle than foobar.
