Yes, a reset on your Yamaha would be a good idea if something's changed in its response to MIDI commands.

My Yamaha is a S90ES and it is about 12 years old. I was able to record with it up till about a month or so. Then, I tried again today and it does not work. Do you think if I reset my midi settens on my Yamaha, will that take care of the problem. Thanks for all of your help that you are trying to give me. I really appreciate it thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nicole Massey Sent: Thursday, April 2, 2020 9:19 PM To: QWS list <[email protected]> Subject: RE: QWS List Hello Hmmm, how old is this Yamaha instrument you have? It sounds like it might not be able to get MIDI data from multiple channels at the same time. Do you have the manual for it? Yamaha has put all kinds of manuals online, and in my experience it's a rare piece of gear that doesn't have a manual on their site. If you have the manual go to the very last page in most cases, where you'll find the MIDI Implementation Chart. This will tell you all kinds of useful things about the instrument's MIDI response.

I did what you told me to do, and it did not work. Then I tried recording a track. When I did that it recorded the first track. Then I tried to record another track with a different sound which was a base sound. When I tried to chose the base sound for the second track I couldn't get the base to pop up to record on that track. So that makes me believe that it is not recognizing the instrument I chose. So where do I go from thaire thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nicole Massey Sent: Thursday, April 2, 2020 5:12 PM To: QWS list <[email protected]> Subject: RE: QWS List Hello First off, punctuation please. Sorry, I'm a writer, so that really bugs me when folks don't use punctuation, and doubly so when it's a blind person who claims it's a disability thing. But on to the topic, it's a pretty simple layout here. Metronome ticks are MIDI notes sent to whatever port you tell them to go to, sending whatever notes you tell them to go to. So either you've got a configuration error in your metronome page, or there's something not getting the message in your sound source. Everything else is pretty much foolproof, and if the sequencer can play and have your Yamaha play it back then there is no problem with Windows, your MIDI interface if any, drivers, etc. Double check your port. Check the note parameters for your ticks. Create a track and get into the properties to set a preferred program on the right channel, and set your volume to 127 just to be on the safe side. . This should resolve your problem unless there's something wrong with your Yamaha, either due to an intentional omission or something messed up in it.

Fir st of al thanks for your response. Yes I am trying to get my metronome to play through my yahama and I can choose any sound to use to record but I just can't hear the metronome through my head phones that I have hooked to my Yamaha like I used to and I am not sure what you are talking about as far as cleaning up things can you please give me more directions on what to do thanks and again thanks for your help. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nicole Massey Sent: Thursday, April 2, 2020 3:03 PM To: QWS list <[email protected]> Subject: RE: QWS List Hello Please explain exactly what you want to do. Are you trying to get the metronome to play from your Yamaha sound source? If so then the first step is to verify that your instrument has the sound you're looking for. This is a problem in the realm of MIDI, not something dealing with operating system stuff, so the reasons why this isn't working tend to be fairly simple to figure out. My suspicion is that your Yamaha doesn't have anything on the channel or on those particular keys. Sound layouts differ between instruments. One other thing -- if your Yamaha is XG compatible send an XG reset from QWS. This tends to clean out some problems too.

The settings in the metronome are set right I think. It works when I choose to use it in qws but when I set it for my Yamaha it does not work, so how do I fix it to work when I choose the Yamaha. It used to work and I wonder if it is because I went to the latest version of windows 10 or is there a setting in centrol panel to get it to work. Please mhelp me with this problem thanks.
