I created manually a Patchmap for Steinbergs Hypersonic 2 Softsynth which includes all my desired patches on higher banks. Using the dialog "choose patches from higher banks" in MIDI Menu I can select all those patches.

I would like to make a DEFAULT ADVANCED PATCHMAP including CC an CC32 to get acces to those Hammer sounds. In the Windows version there seems to be an option to create advanced patchmaps. I couldn't find this in the MAC version.

I would like to have a in depth instruction about "patch name familys" and handling sysex files. The current implemantation semms to use the GM patchnames as familynames....

How to set this up????

Hi,

It sounds like you want to automatically map a patch on the GM bank, to a different patch on a higher bank, without selecting the patch manually? There isn't a way to do this within BB itself, but there could be a third party MIDI utility you could use to accomplish it. I'm not sure if MidiPipe will do it, perhaps someone else knows...?

I think I fixed this Issue, but I'm still stucking with the autoload features of the MAC version. In the previous WIN versions I could select to autoload the latest Song. Now I end up in an empty song after starting biab. I would load my Hypersonic2.pat file as default as well. I'm confused....

It should remember which patch map you are using between sessions - I'm not sure why that wouldn't be the case. In other words when you open the 'Patches on Higher Banks' dialog, your patch map should already be selected.

A quick way to open the last song is to press Shift+F3 (favorite songs dialog) and then <enter> (since the previous song will already be selected).
