I was having other strange things occur so decided to reload the sytem. Don't know if that was it but got the project working somewhat. The linke set was responding to both the patch and the realtime cc settings.I think toggling the disable/enable controller knobs with their values set at 0 cleared it. Not sure if this makes sense cause troubleshooting protocol was out the window at that point. The volume envelope for a constant on while key pressed would be what? ( atk1@100 dcy2@100 and all else @ 0 )? --- In xl7@yahoogroups.com, "steve_the_composer" <smw-mail@...> wrote: > > (1) Thanks for the clarification on the linked presets, Aaron. > > (2) I just tested the theory of my previous post about using > different CC#s.
