Re: [AN1x] Re: how to stop...

I agree with Ed ...
for losing his patience and for MidiOx too. I have this software 
(free...) and it works great.
I suppose that Jimmy's soft sequencer has the ability to filter unwanted 
MIDI data. It is a very common feature to avoid huge files full of 
useless aftertouch or controllers data...
Cheers
