Issue playing MIDI

Post by acmcp »

Hi everybody,
I am using ableton live to play a MIDI out on the Ax-Synth. I created the MIDI file using guitar pro and it sounds fine when I play it using windows Media Player but when I use the AX-Synth as the MIDI out it always changes my patch to something else. I really need this midi to play with a piano sound not something else. These are the initial bytes of my MIDI file I don't find any bank select message: BnH 00H mmH.

4d 54 68 64 00 00 00 06 00 01 00 02 01 e0 4d 54 72 6b 00 00 02 d0 00 ff 03 0e 41 63 6f 75 73 74 69 63 20 50 69 61 6e 6f 00 c0 00 00 ff 51 03 07 a1 20 00 ff 58 04 04 02 18 08 00 90 4b 50 00 90 3f 50 83 60 80 4b 40 00 80 3f 40 00 90 47 50 00

I tested the same MIDI using the SonicCell as the MIDI output. I chose piano for part 1/channel 1 and the MIDI played fine. Something must be wrong with the AX-Synth midi configuration

Hi,

You must deactivate the program change messages in your sequencer or delete the PC command at the beginning of MIDI file.

You were right. Ableton live sends Program Change 1 by default.

Thanks,
