Perhaps a different MIDI file had set the volume on channel 1 and each time we have used this particular MIDI file we had previously played the one that set the volume on channel one. That would explain it not changing after a power on reset which I had thought would fully reset the Ketron. If that is the case then it will not be fun tracking down which file is the culprit. I will try just playing the offending MIDI file as the first one after the next power cycle to see if the problem is gone.



Toggling the Ketron power indeed is a full reset. It should and will cancel out any commands previously sent to the device.

Try it again, and this time, if the volume is still not right, immediately check the MIDI Event List for any CC7 or CC11 entries -- and see what they are.

I'm thinking now, however, that your problem might be in the *Audio* domain, though. Make sure that the offending track is not panned hard right or hard left and that the output is not somehow turned down or off for that Audio channel...

Odds are fairly good that the problem lies swomewhere within your computer and not the Ketron, although there is a very remote chance that the Ketron might be suffereing from a hardware fault, I doubt that as it plays on the other channels.
