Hi there.

 

I answered one of my questions about the metronome.

 

I guess you have to turn it off when you're playing back the track but this
does bring up a couple of other questions.

 

I have a .mid file that has 4 tracks and when I opened it up, the
instruments weren't as they were when I exited and saved the last time.

 

for instance, track 1 channel 1 is called harp and it was a piano.  I went
back into properties and it showed everything as I had set it up so I just
moved to the next instrument in the back and then back to the harp and it
was the right one.

 

I wonder if there's something wrong with my setup that it's not recognizing
what I've selected and I have to reselect it?

 

The only thing that I can think of is that since I am using the Roland
fa06/08 consolidated list, that maybe the choices are going to be different
depending on what expansion packs I load into the synth.  I wonder though,
if I upload different packs to use different sounds for something else, and
then upload the ones that I had used for this midi file, does the Roland put
the data from those different packs in different banks each time you load
them?

 

I don't know enough about how all those expansions are allocated and what
goes where when something is uploaded.

 

Thanks for the further help.  I think once I get the hang of this midi
stuff, I'm going to like recording this way and I can see myself setting up
loops for play while I improvise in real-time for my program on the
internet.

 

Scott
