Ashame to admit it, but i can't set-up Cthulhu to make it work in Ableton Live 9

Started by Tomahawk

I've tried and tested hundreds of plugins, however i can't demo Cthulhu. No matter what i try i can't 

get a response from Cthulhu; anyone knows if there is a specific set-up for Live 9 ? Thanks

Use the vst version
Load a chord preset
you should hear Cthulhu's tone
on destination midi track, MIDI from [track with cthulhu] and [1-Cthulhu] in second input rectangle.
also monitor IN or record enable on destination track

Here are the basic instructions I use:

  • Set up Cthulhu on one MIDI track, and your target instrument on second track.
  • On the second track, make sure your "in" is set to n - Cthulhu 
  • Make sure your "FX selector" is set to "Cthulhu" (right below the "in") and NOT pre- or post- FX.
  • Set your audio monitor on that second track to "in", or you won't hear anything.

That's about it!

Should work.

Thanks guys, 

I was finally able to set up Cthulhu in Live.  Excellent audio tool, it's exactly what i thought it would be. This kind of plugin really helps me being more creative & productive as i'm not a keyboard player,  but a guitarist.   Now i'm just certain all Xfer products are great… so i will most probably get LFO Tool too :)

Cheers ! 

What is the destination for the files on the machine. I tried saving to desktop and just have these .dll files

DLL files are VST plugins. If you are new to VSTPlugins I would not start with Cthulhu.
