This is working as designed. It is intended to be used on a single track at a time. Switching to another track turns it off. This prevents accidentally messing up the bank/program settings on other tracks. > I tried to set it up through "Manage MIDI Banks > and Programs," and imported existing bank settings for the Triton > Extreme. (This was the closest I could find to my keyboard) This is the way banks/programs for a track should be set up ideally. This is the way Rosegarden is designed to work. If there isn't a bank that you can import from the library that matches your keyboard, that makes it difficult to use Rosegarden. That said, there are certainly other ways to use Rosegarden. Do you have tracks that change program over the course of a piece? In that case, importing banks won't help much. You'll more likely want to use the event editor to work with banks/programs. I recommend starting small. Whip together a short two track example on the Triton. Send it over to Rosegarden, then send us the resulting .rg file. Tell us what you expect and what you are getting. We should be able to help quite a bit from that starting point. Ted. -- The Command Line: Reinvented for Modern Developers Did the resurgence of CLI tooling catch you by surprise?

[Rosegarden-user] Basic Midi Set up
Hi all, I am a new Rosegarden user, trying out how to sync RG with my Korg Triton. I have existing sequences in the Korg, that I would like to bounce over to RG. I have managed to get the data to record from the Korg into RG, but still not in sync, and I get frequent unexpected occurrences; specifically, I have trouble with unexpected program changes and notes sticking or feeding back. From reading the handbook, it seems that setting each channel to 'Receive External' should result in RG just sending the MIDI data to the programs however they might be arranged on the keyboard, but I still get unexpected program changes. 'Receive external will even uncheck itself almost immediately after I check it. I looked into setting the exact bank and program numbers for each channel, but RG doesn't "see" the korg, it only "sees" my Scarlett 2i4 "general midi device." I tried to set it up through "Manage MIDI Banks and Programs," and imported existing bank settings for the Triton Extreme. (This was the closest I could find to my keyboard) I thought I could at least set the right bank and program numbers, even if the names didn't match. This didn't seem to work at all, and now each channel is just playing whatever program each channel on the Korg is set to; this is what I wanted it to do initially, but when I try to use it that way I get the aforementioned surprises. I'm not sure what to do about the issue. I would greatly appreciate any help in this problem! -- The Command Line: Reinvented for Modern Developers Did the resurgence of CLI tooling catch you by surprise?
