I think that info may well be out of date. I don't have to use any form of loop back (unless they refer to the internal MIDI routing as loopback) when I'm working with external MIDI gear. > By default we provide presets for : Soundblaster live, Acces Virus, EMU= > > Audity 2000, Korg MS 2000, Korg Z1, Line 6 POD 2, Microsoft Synthesizer= > , > PPD Tririum, Rainbow 2, Roland JP-8000 ... > > But you can define your own presets for any midi gear you wanna control= > ." > > How can I create a preset? I was looking at this last night. Basically a preset seems to consist of setting the various assignable controls on the MIDI out plugin (the ones above the auditioning keyboard) with appropriate names and to control particular Control Change (CC) parameters for a particular synth. Seems weird to me that there is no way to create your own patch list so that it shows something sensible and not just GM patch names. Andy --
