Hi, here's a solution that should work:

1. Apply to all tracks. Tools menu apply to all.
2. Go into the tools menu, then more tools, then delete controlers.
At this point you can press f1, or you can simply type 128, and press enter.
3. Make sure your program changes are still in the midi file, save, close,
reopen, play.

If they stuck around, good. If not, drawing board.

Hello Bert,

Thanks for your advice, but alas, it does not work.
I can split the track and remove the initial one. Afterwards I can change
all the values I like and I do get different instruments for each voice, but
after saving the file and restarting it, both Qws and Windows Media player
play the initial instruments, not my changes.

When re-opening qws, I find my changed settings as I left them, but qws just
keeps on playing other things than my settings: namely the initial ones.

Regards,
Frank

Hello Frank
Your description of this problem reminds me of a tricky but very easy
solvable feature. I think you are loading a midi file type 0 (all midi
channels put on one track). Before treating this kind of files you have to
do a channel split (go to tools extra tools and there you find channel
split)
The file changes to midi type 1 and shows you a track list with all
information that you could not see in the type 0 version.
(do not forget to remove your upper track from the list because that is
still the type 0 format running simultaniously with all other tracks).
Good luck and hope this helps!
kind regards.

Hallo Frank,

What  maybe helps is to look in the eventlist of that first track and
delete al programchanges and bankchanges. And after that go to the
property,s in the other tracks and fill in the program changes. Then save
the file.

The seccond option: Delete that first track and follow the steps i
mentioned above. If the track is playing slow enter the appropriate tempo
inthe option "init time and Tempo". Then save the file.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Both for myself and for some of the members of my choir I download midi
files for rehearsals.

I change the sounds of the parts: for the sopranos I give the soprano an
instrument that differs from the other instruments, etcetera.

Yesterday I hit upon a four part midi file that seems to be unchangeable:
I can change everything, but I cannot save the changes.

In the mentioned file there are parts for satb, and first there is a part
with no name where all settings are: -1.

Hope someone can enligten me on this.

Regards,
Frank
