Topic: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

I know that this card Multiface I, is no longer produced,
but I've quite a few and they all work well for years and still work well,
today I updated with new Windows drivers v4.03 and TotalMix FX v1.03,
everything seems to work correctly,
but the Mid/Side functionality is no longer present,
the possibility to set Pan Law is not present,
also there is no way to have control of the output Phone with midi,
selecting the columns, the midi symbol appears on each input, playback, and output, except for the Phone output.
Thanks for any clarification on this.

Re: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

M/S processing is in each channel pair now, you can also individually switch channel polarities. Pan law was indeed removed....
As for Phones and MIDI, I'm not totally sure, this may be added later, if possible. Will have to find out.

I have no problem to steer phones with a BCF-2000 in Mackie (Cubase) mode.

Re: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

That (MS missing) is not intentionally, sorry. What are you using to control TM in blocks of 6 channels?

Don't worry, no problem
I'm using Presonus Faderport as controller

Re: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

The Multiface (like any interface from those times) does not support MS Processing at all, because it can not phase invert the signal. The MS Proc option in TM had not been disabled for those interfaces. All that happens is that you get a mono signal. I hope you did not use that before...as it never worked...

We will try to fix the MIDI access in the next update.

Re: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

Can you please try version 1.04b2? It should solve the MIDI problem.

Thank you, the channel Phone is now included in the midi selection group.

But I have some problems to select channels from my controller,
I'm not sure, however, that it is related to the mapping of the FaderPort:
when I use the buttons for channel selection, it activates the channel the first time,
the second time disables it and then goes to the next channel,
but it seems to work just to the right direction, while to the left direction, not disability the previous channel, leaving it active.

However,
I noticed that the snap, do not store the state of the group of midi channels selected and the corresponding channel to follow,
while in the previous old version stores these parameters.

Anyway thanks for your support.

Re: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

Your last part is a bit unclear. Most probably what you look for needs to be saved as Workspace. Snapshots are not directly comparable to the former Presets.

The old TotalMix did not have Snapshots. That is my point. wink

Re: Multiface I - TotalMix FX v1.03

hehe, sorry,
ok, now I realized that I just use the key (W) and save it with a preset (workspace) to have the same function.

Will investigate if the mapping and operation of the FaderPort, do not give the possibility to correctly select the channel to follow.
I'll let you know.

Thank you again.
