I wanted to record a midi song without one of the tracks. This worked by muting the track in VSC. My problem is ALL of the songs NOW have this track muted. When I play the song in Power tracks the volume is showing sound generated but the track has no sound. I have 2005 edition.
How do I get the track to sound again?

Revisit the VSC control panel and unmute the corresponding MIDI channel.
If you want to do a mixdown without a track, simply mute that track using Tracks View.

I tried that, did not work. I rebooted and that solved it.
Tracks View is where?

Also,, I open midi files in Power tracks and it asked me to convert to mono or stero. No way to backtrack. I stoped the conversion not completed. Then I get no sound yet volume meters say I am getting. I am also losing hard drive space. I have to reboot to get sound.
Strange.

In the MIDI driver set up. There is an option for GM2 support. I turned this off and I can now hear the tracks. My computer is also slowly crashing. I do not have DOS. Very hard to restart.

About every six months I completely re-install my whole PC. It's a pain for a few days but clears up lots of problems that creep in.
Like the man said, "ain't that a kick in the head!"
