Also, remember that one note may actually involve more than one voice
where poliphony limits are concerned, particularly if the patch involved
consists of multiple timbres or layers.
So, eight notes in a chord may actually sound 32 polyphonic voices.

Hi, Omar,

I do know that there is a limit to the number of notes any particular
MIDI device can play at the same time.  I believe this measurement is
called polyphony.  The user manual of your MIDI synthe or module should
list its polyphony limit.  For example, it might be 32-note polyphony.
That would mean that the instrument simply cannot play more than 32 MIDI
notes simultaneously.

HTH,
Bill

I appreciate the suggestion, but I had already made sure that it was on
0. That doesn't appear to be the problem. berhane kidane
