The other day my computer got stuck in an auto repair loop. So I had to reset and reinstall some programs, including BB and RB. Now, a song that was close to finished has this unusual problem. On one midi track, the sound is piano for 36 measures. Then it changes to something else that sounds like midi guitar for two measures. Then it changes back to piano.
Anyone have a notion about the cause and the fix? Thanks.

Hi I would open the song then press F5 and see if there is any voice changes set for the two bars in question on your piano track, Mike

Like Mike stated Program Changes will do that. I will add that if that MIDI file was imported from a source other than BiaB that Program Change may be on another track. This is especially true of downloaded Internet MIDI files.
Good luck
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Thanks to both of you. All the tracks are from BB. Still, I will try that.

Hi 2bSolo,
Window - New - Event List (or F2) will bring up a list of every single MIDI even on every track, it's an invaluable troubleshooting tool for any MIDI-related issues as you can peek under the hood and see a lot more info that the Notation or Piano Roll windows provide.
You'll find the Program changes that way, guaranteed.
Cheers Kent PG Music

Thanks, Kent.
Funny thing. My function keys no longer work. I have looked on the internet and I haven't found a solution yet. But you gave me a set of commands. I will try that.

Hi 2bSolo,
The solution to the Function key issue will likely be specific to your keyboard.
Are you using a USB keyboard, or the keyboard built into a laptop? With model of keyboard or laptop is it?

Hi 2bSolo,
Does hitting or holding down the FN key (to the left of Windows key) not do the trick?

No, it just makes my monitor dim.
Thanks for trying.

Try holding down the FN key while pressing the desired function key. Mike

Hi Alphanumeric Onl, Can you send the file as an email attachment to support@pg music.com please? I'll be happy to check it out. In the future, I'd highly recommend starting a new topic for any questions you have, more people will see it that way. Thanks Kent PG Music
