Activation and resets Functions | Reset sets the state of all virtual controls and virtual pipes back to their default values when the sample set was loaded:
Functions | Activate/Deactivate MIDI and audio start and stop Hauptwerk's MIDI and audio engines respectively and open and close hardware devices configured for use with Hauptwerk. When a sample set is loaded, Hauptwerk attempts to activate automatically, and deactivation usually happens automatically when a sample set is unloaded. Since Hauptwerk usually requires exclusive access to all MIDI and audio devices for which it is configured, you can temporarily deactivate Hauptwerk whilst you use another program that needs to access those devices. Note that Hauptwerk can be activated when no sample set is loaded. Although only the MIDI systems (not audio) are activated, this allows external MIDI control of Hauptwerk's menu functions, such as loading sample sets, and also for MIDI status information to be sent to an external console (Advanced Edition only), which is useful if Hauptwerk is being used without a computer monitor or keyboard. Once Hauptwerk has been configured initially, you can set Hauptwerk to activate or load an organ automatically when it starts using the General settings | General options screen:
Hauptwerk's active status is displayed in the status bar at the bottom-right of the main window:
When Hauptwerk is inactive, no virtual console is displayed, even if a sample set is loaded. |
