Subject: Re: QWS List some questions
Hello, Nicole,
When I set up each track, I filled in all the appropriate items. That
includes bank, the instrument (taken from an instrument list). I set pan
and volume as needed in order to get the sound balance I wanted.
It all works well when playing my sequence via QWS. It does not produce
anything like the correct instruments when I transfer this sequence to a
synth equipped with a MIDI player.
I can't remember but much about this, but years ago when I had a different
sequencer, I had to enter all those valuep at the start of each track.
I can figure what to enter, but do not know how to do that in QWS.
I hope my explanation makes more sense now.
Thank you, Nicole and others, for your ideas.
Joe Giovanelli

This isn't just a QWS situation - it's the way MIDI works dependent upon
the hardware or software it's controlling. QWS does use the -1 value to
indicate that it isn't going to send anything, leaving things the way
they
were last set. Some devices will reset to a set value, but most will
leave
things as they were until something new comes in unless you sent an All
Controllers Off message (if supported by the device - this is a recent
addition to the controller list) or other reset commands in Sysex. So
this
kind of behavior is normal for MIDI, which is why I always set the
volume,
pan, reverb, and chorus values in the track properties.
