I'm still struggling with midi - 10/17/18 08:24 PM
I really need to understand how to work with midi better. A few questions:
1. In the track I won the PAK5-contest with I used three instances of FM8. For each of the 3 I used a different preset in FM8. However, when I open the file now, it seems to remember that I used FM8, but not which presets I used, so when I play the song I just hear the default midi-sounds.
Is it because I have to save the song in a special way to make it remember the presets I used or what?
2. When I watch the videos on this site about midi, many of them is about Sampletank and how to set it up. Is SampleTank something that is included with the Ultrapak or do I have to download it myself? I have a lot of other synths, but is SampleTank the one I should use to get better sounds on the miditracks (which sounds awful in the moment)?
Thank you in advance for helping me out with this!
