Channel setting of some synths is not stored

asktoby · Post by **asktoby** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 4:32 am

When I add any of these devices and set their midi channel:

Dubsub
FM_4
Microbe

...after saving and re-loading, their midi channel is re-set to OMNI. Each time I load up the project I have to go around re-setting the MIDI channels as per a notepad I keep of the correct settings.

Does anyone else have this problem? Or a solution?

if nothing helps, you always can add Midi Source modules, one for every midi channel

Hey, bright spark! That's not a bad idea at all...

Alternatively I could add a midi filter prior to each synth, and only let through midi of a certain channel.

Does anyone else have this problem with these devices?

tested Dubsub, works perfect here (on mac)

This one seems the most economical solution in terms of resources.

less expensive than buying a mac

If they save their MIDI status on Mac, they do it everyewhere, it's not an OS thing...maybe something is wrong with the install.

There is a Dubsub2, try that?

I'm running on Windows XP, too.

Just tried the Dubsub2 demo (wow, some nice patches in there!) and it saves it's channel correctly.

Dubsub 1, in the same project, does not.

I'm using dubsub_v1. That's what it appears as in my scope menu. Is there a newer version, perhaps?

Dubsub1, being a pulsar2.04 device, can be saved including it's preset list. Tried saving the device with another MIDI channel than the OMNI?
