Hi there. New user and have to say it has opened my eyes to how good the product is.

Anyhow, I am at the stage where I am now using my own vsts on midi tracks (as in the ones I own not ones I have written).

The problem I am having is when I want to select a patch that is higher than 128. I am using FLStudio's Sytrus synth and there are something like 300 patches in there.

Any ideas please.

Regards.

Mike.

Mike,

This link is for FAQ's they will solve a lot not all..

This link is directly to Patch Maps for different synth's.
Dont know your(dont know much), but check out this link.

http://www.pgmusic.com/support_miscellaneous.htm

This is PG's tutorial on creating a patch map.

Asking for a Brand Specific Map in posting might help.

Also check out your documentation or DISK for Styrus.

Check out this search results.

Use your patch map to help create one if necessary.

Good luck !

Thanks for that. I'll have a go. Not sure how I find out what the combinations of Msb / Lsb are for the upper banks though. Off to check the documentation for the synth.

Regards.

Mike,

Your doc's or software disk should have some kind of listing
for the midi goodies. It will detail the MSB and LSB.

Nother suggestion, got to one of the Styrus OR Fl Studio forums and
fish about.

Have a nice Day,

Seeker

Cheers Seeker. I'll give that a go.

Got to say, I'm well impressed with Realband. I have another slight prob (no sound ...) but will post that separately.

Rgds.
