I have a midi track I want to record for one of my arrangements right, I want to use it as a guide to my vocal, so I'm tinkering around editing it and I can hear the note I want playing back as I edit it that way I know which note to imput, here's the problem when I have a section, I think is right on with the melody and I want to check it, I start the song...here's where it gets weird, I play it and I hear no midi, I look to see if maybe my midi track isn't enabled or something it is enabled, I can even go to notation and watch the notes go red so it recognizes them I just can't here it, if anyone can offer insight that would be great




Are the recorded notes on the melody track? If so, what track type have you selected? In the melody menu the top item is 'midi track type'. Try setting it to single track, otherwise you may not have a patch assigned and the appropriate midi commands. Converting to single track will eliminate this possibility by using the patch and volume settings set at the top of BiaB.

Also, check the settings in the default mixer. Open the DXi dialog (DXi button). Click the default button. Check that the volume sliders are all at the max level. The VSC DXi is known to sometimes lose the volume settings and, I believe, some other synths do this too.

If you are using sampletank or aria as your synth check you have a 'voice' or 'patch' on the correct channel. You'll get no sound if not.

Hope these ideas help.
