2001-12-23 by otacon28us

hey thanks for the info,
                   i tried to just run my midi capable keyboard into 
my module(via 5 pin midi cable)and was able to get 2 different sounds 
from it,i got a synth type of sound ,and a clean piano sound,but how 
would i get access to the other voices in there or would they have to 
be accessed through my computer only ???
thanks again,
               sam
