Re: not sounding what it would sound like, Maybe, that happens when you say, open a midi file and start playing it from bar 2 or 3 and thus the sequencer will not send the initial information because you are already past it. Pressing control q will send the initial midi file information, while control w will send the curren actual information (for example if you are on bar 10 and there was a program change on bar 6 it will send that immediately to your controller) 2015-08-13 10:29 GMT-05:00, Scott Lawlor <[email protected]>: > 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.
