Hi Annabelle, I'm not sure that the CC normal code of practise  applies with 
Garritan. I'll check the CC0 and CC1 on my music system later as you've got me 
wondering what I've put on the event view column? I'm 99% sure that CC0 doesn't 
work as a program change when used with Garritan.

  I thought that CC0 was for patch changes.

  Hi mike, I put CC0 in my last post, Annabelle correctly informed me that I 
meant CC1, although both CC0 and CC1 seem to work regarding volume when used 
with Garritan.

    Hi Mike,

    One thing to watch out for with Garritan is, most midi instruments have CC0 
(Control change 0) for modulation. Garritan foolishly decided that CC0 would be 
volume instead.
    It's a Stupid thing to do as if you have say a digital piano with no 
modulation or pitch bend wheels, the chances are when you switch the piano on, 
it will reset midi CC0 to value 0 equals no volume.
    They should have left volume on CC7.

    If you understand a little about control changes, I put below a little info 
which will help make a couple of the trumpets sound a little more believable.

    Release Effects (CC#15): Trumpets in a jazz context often release notes in 
unusual ways. The three most common are: "falloffs," "doits," and "kisses." In

    Jazz & Big Band these effects can be chosen with CC#15. They are switched 
as follows:

     

    Table with 2 columns and 4 rows

    Value 0-32

    Off

    Value 33-64

    Falloffs

    Value 65-95

    Doits

    Value 96-127

    Kisses

    table end

      Thanks Gord. Now that you mentioned it, I should've done that when I was 
reading some of the manual; You know how it is when you wanna get things up and 
running in a minimal amount of time.

        Hi:
        Your best bet is to study the midi implementation section of the 
manual.  Many midi controllers are mapped to gpo parameters.
