Second go at replying - the forum decided to disappear just as I finished writing a four paragraph response...

First, thank you for the prompt and helpful reply. Your insight into the way the S950 works (and doesn't!) with MIDI was interesting. At least I know now that some of what I was trying to achieve was not possible within the limitations of the S950 architecture. I guess 8 years ago I must have just set up the activation of the sheet music in response to a registration. That would explain why I have a MIDI template with the same name as Fred's, OpenTextSetup.

In the meantime, I have now taken the MIDI interface out of the equation and connected instead through the USB to Host. And I have substituted MobileSheets on a Windows tablet for SongBook+ on an iPad, largely because aging eyes prefer a bigger screen. All is now working, but with one possible peculiarity in the set up. Though MS allows the insertion of MSB, LSB, and PC numbers (though as a Patch rather than a Program Change), this does not lead to any sheet music being displayed. What does is if I set the MS MIDI page for the song to listening mode and activate the registration for the song on the S950. A load of System Exclusive messages are displayed on the MS MIDI monitor, but amongst them is a single Program Change message. If I tick the box alongside it and exit and save the MIDI page, MS associates the message with the song sheet, which from then on will display when the registration for that song is activated on the S950.

I only have 880 songs left to apply this rigmarole to...

Once again, thanks for your elucidation. If you have any further comment on the whys and wherefores of the procedure I have set out above (and particularly any way of shortening the process of associating MIDI message with song sheet!) I would of course be interested.

Having switched off the other channels to listen to a possible replacement, when I load another style, all the channels are open. it'd be nice to just listen to a particular channel without the rigmarole of closing all the others.

Hi Alan,

Have you tried setting the "Part On/Off" parameter in "Style Settings > Style Change Behavior" to "Hold" or "Lock" (in addition to "Tempo > Hold / Lock" there)? This should keep style parts turned off even when changing styles.




Best regards,

Hi Guys,

Been a few years since I had my computer connected to a keyboard and never to my Genos. I was wondering if there is a quick way to record a performance live on the Genos and have Sonar record it on the correct individual tracks, or do I have to do it track by track?

Thanks for your help,

Rick D.

Thank you very much for creating and sharing this Harp pack, @Misu!


Best regards,
Chris

Quote from: DrakeM on November 29, 2018, 08:32:06 AMYou simply start any style playing at the tempo you choose.
Don't stop the style from playing BUT select any other style and it will play at the SAME tempo.

I use this tip all the time when searching for the perfect Drum pattern and bass patterns when creating my custom song styles.

When searching for example a Drum pattern I turn off the other 7 channels in the style. Then I for the Bass pattern I will just select that channel and turn the other 7 off.

Drake

Thank you Alex. I was a supporting member but had to enter new details to log in. Can you tell me what I need to do to to restore this, if I can have it restored.


Thank you

If anybody has an SX600, I would highly recommend getting the SX700 (and not SX900) internal styles and play them in you SX600, they sound excellent for the most part and you will have a very large selection at hand when combining them with the SX600 internal styles.


I tried to use the styles of the SX700 on the SX600, but in my experience you have to adjust far too many voices.

Hi,

While cleaning the work area in YEM, I saw that lately I have been working quite a lot on the voice called Harfe.
I remembered the forum members' interest in this and made a small pack with 6 voices:
1.ConcertHarp1-9Mb
2.ConcertHarp2-3.4Mb
3.HighlandHarp-9.3Mb
4.HarpCM2e-14.7Mb
5.HarfeT3-6.8Mb
6.HarfeGStW-5Mb
Enjoy!

And if I can't, we might also be missing out on performances by other new members who can't post either
