You, my friend are a fantastic help. There's nothing in the manual about the
file name bit, so this is very helpful. When you denote the velocity, what is
the syntax to show range? I'd like to name a file so that it's velocity is 64
to 96. How is this written? Also, how do you denote keys? Is there a chart I
can look at to see how this all is written? Are these standards with another
format with a published set of specs that I can review and learn how to do this
properly? Anyway, Thanks so much. This could really help me get some libraries
going here.
