there are people using nutcracker in LSP.

The only method i currently support is to load up your clipboard.

You do this by saving nutcracker as UserPatterns.xml in your LSP sequencer directory.

i am not sure what you mean "into the library".

i do not produce msq files, only UserPatterns.xml

So once you have in LSP can you change the channel start number or is it always going to start with channel 1?

since it is in the clipboard, you just paste it onto whatever channel you want. The clipboard does not have any channel information associated with it.

double click the effect in the library. wait for it to say effect copied.

Now go to wherever you want the effect, select a cell and then type ctl-v.

thanks

Thanks for the information. I will give it a try. Thanks for all of your work on this! And thanks for sharing it with everyone!

I am still working on the 'break up' of LSP output for projects.  Right now, the XML code for LSP will generate files in the order of 1GB or greater for any smart string of note and of a song around 2-3 minutes.  This is something that is problematic for meighan.net (due to 25GB file size) and problematic for LSP (handles the large files, but it does slow down things a great deal, as I believe User Patterns in LSP were never truly intended to hold an entire show). I have been reverse engineering the UserPattern.xml files to the point where I understand what all the tags and attributes do.  I have been working on a re-write of the LSP output for projects to break the song up into roughly 1 minute segments (dependent on where the phrasing is for your given song) which would provide a series of UserPattern.xml files for you to use.  In truth, the LSP output from project should be to a MSQ file, however, the complexity of the xml in this code is somewhat involved and certainly not something I can accomplish before this season (especially since most of you are putting up your shows right now!)  In the meantime I recommend that you use UserPatterns as described above, with the understanding that you can paste your User Pattern anywhere within your sequence in LSP using a simple paste.

Thanks Kurt. I am trying to load Nutcracker now. I am NO expert at even getting this up and running so I may be in WAY over my head!
