Given the Finale for OS X initial fiasco, I am wondering if they
send developer(s) to these developer's conference at all. I really
hope that there's someone there to get what the mac team needs to
avoid extremely frustrating experiences for customers, like the port

I love Garritan, but has anyone found a way to suppress the application of
any MIDI channel 10 to percussion instruments? My MP3's are great except
for the substution of the 10th channel (in any version) is made a

Is this a Mac-only thing?
The concept of channel 10 percussion is not part of GPO.
Are you using GPO Studio?
What is locking percussion into ch. 10?
Is it GPO player 2, slot 2?? That shouldn't be.
Could you please elaborate on what you're doing?
