    Is there a way to output to a hardware remote the fader positions from a Kontakt instrument?

    Say for example I assign by right click cc13 to a reverb fader in a Kontakt instrument. Then I adjust that reverb to a sweet spot using my hardware remote, through cubase and VEPro to Kontakt. The when I later select the cubase track can I get Kontakt to send the set cc values to my hardware controller so the faders recal back to their positions?

    I can deal with the midi in to the hardware, but just don’t know how to get it sent from Kontakt ?!

    Not possible.

    You could set something like this up using Ableton Live with some help from Max for Live though. You'd use Live to 'export' the control within the VST device after which you assign it to MIDI controller 'A'. A Max for Live (MIDI) device could monitor that control and sent MIDI data based on its position. Not sure how feasible this solution is but still figured I'd mention it.

    I figured that might be the case - I was hoping there was something in the way that Cubase quick controls work?

    Sounds complicated. Why can't you just put the cc#13 message in your sequencer track?

    Because this isn’t about recording the controller moves. I want to be able to switch tracks and have the controller “remember” where it was set when I was last on that track by being sent the VSTi controller positions.

    Thanks but not sure how that will translate to cubase?

    It won't.
