The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

hi Peter,
thanx for your answer.
i think i tried once doing what you say.
but the results were the same.
the sound-like-children's-piano was ll around my room..! :-((
i will try again and let you know.
could you suggest me in alternative a different seq-software?
maybe one you know better...
or do you think i need to have e different midi driver...?
i hope i will be understandable. i'm ignorant about this 
argument...but i have a groove box!!
:-)
thanx again
and where you from?
bye davide
