Well Guys, I guess I can only claim ignorance as the reason, as I still claim to be a newbie to all of this.
Was just following the advice from past postings that I should set the re-route midi output to the DXi synth. So thats what I did and have not experimented with any other options as at least this has seemed to work (allowing me to hear my songs). Will admit I know almost nothing about Midi, GM, GS, XG, or any other letter combos that are thrown at me, LOL. Just an old time analog audio guy from way back using an old Tascam 246(kept eating tapes) prior to trying PTPA and BiaB.

Maybe someday I'll figure this all out (hopefully before I croak!). That would be sweet!.

Thanks again to eveyone for all the help! (past and present)

Larry
