I did fix this problem as well though; somehow, I managed to clear the 'sends its data through' setting in the 'manage midi devices,' so the korg was sending the data to nowhere. All the levels in the MIDI mixer were zeroed out to; easy enough to change, but I am not sure how I did this in the first place. Either way, I am back in business.

When I change the programs in I can interpret "restart" several ways. Can you explain what you did in more detail? > In addition, when I open files made previous to my addition of the > Triton as a MIDI device, it is not available as a MIDI device. It won't be. When you acquire some new piece of kit, you have to add it to older files manually. > It seemed > like I might have to to do Studio -> import default studio, but after > this not only does the triton still not show up as a MIDI device, all > sound is muted, even though the meters are still jumping. The MIDI VU meters mean "events are being sent" but the events won't actually produce any result unless everything is hooked up correctly. All I can really tell you is I never adopted the habit of using "import default studio" or "always use default studio," and there is probably a good reason for that. I have long since forgotten the reason, of course. -- D.

Edit->Preferences->MIDI->Sequencer timing source Try setting it to your soundcard PCM playback 0-0-0 is usually a safe option. -- W J G -- ___ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user
[Rosegarden-user] MIDI settings messed up after restart
Hi all, I had previously asked the list for help with getting Rosegarden to recognize the program names on my old Korg triton studio. I was able to make all this work, but it is doing surprising things after a restart. I was able to set up the Korg Triton as a MIDI device, and save it in the default studio. From there, I could change programs on RG and the Korg would just do as it was told; I didn't have to mess with the Korg at all, to change programs or anything. I was able to see and use the korg as a MIDI device in any new file. After the restart, when I try to play the same file, the programs as listed in the 'instrument parameters' box do not match what they originally were, and the programs on the korg are seemingly random general midi instruments. When I change the programs in 'instrument parameters' to the right ones, the programs on the Korg either don't change, or they change back to the GM instruments almost immediately. In addition, when I open files made previous to my addition of the Triton as a MIDI device, it is not available as a MIDI device. It seemed like I might have to to do Studio -> import default studio, but after this not only does the triton still not show up as a MIDI device, all sound is muted, even though the meters are still jumping. I have messed around with this, but I have no idea what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
