Hi Gord:

I am using the Motif ES for sequencing with sonar. I
lose the sounds from the tracks if I hit play when I
have a new file open and there is no data recorded
yet. Sound also disappears if I let the song play past
the last measure (if I press stop a second after the
song ends.) I am not refering to any kind of event
editing. It just seems that pressing play in spots
where there is no data is throwing the keyboard off
and I'm losing sound.

Thanks.

Omar Binno

We have come from God, and inevitably the myths woven by us, though they 
contain error, will also reflect a splintered fragment of the true light, the 
eternal truth that is with God. Indeed only by myth-making, only by becoming a 
"sub-creator" and inventing stories, can Man aspire to the state of perfection 
that he knew before the Fall. Our myths may be misguided, but they steer 
however shakily towards the true harbor, while materialistic "progress" leads 
only to a yawning abyss and the Iron Crown of the power of evil. - J. R. R. 
Tolkien ? Author of The Lord Of The Rings
