Hey Guys,

I figured I'd be safe and list this as off topic, as it's a Yamaha Motif 
specific question.  The MoAccess list tends to be a while when it comes to 
getting answers, and I'm feeling a bit impatient for what could be a very 
simple solution... LOL

For those of you who use John Melas's editors, why would the toggle boxes for 
things like insert effects, arpeggio switch, etc immediately revert back to its 
original state after I press the spacebar on the checkboxes?  Here's what I did 
to produce this.

I have the Motif in Song mode, and have verified that the MIDI connections are 
properly set up.  From the Song mode main screen, using the mix editor, I 
arrowed to a voice for the first part.  With each arrow press, I verified the 
voice change by playing the keyboard.  everything was fine up to this point.  I 
figured that since the voice I wanted was playing when I played the keyboard, I 
didn't need to do anything else.  I figured I could just go through the mix 
editor's controls and tweak the mix from there.

As a test, I pressed the spacebar on "Enable insert effects" to uncheck the 
box.  The box gets cleared and then immediately checks itself again.  Obviously 
I'm missing something here, and I've a feeling it's really simple.  Once I 
figure this one thing out, I'll be well on my way.

Feel free to Email me off list if necessary, and thanks again.

Most Sincerely,

Bobbi
