RE: [DTXpress] RE: Man am I dumb!!!!

The Midi problem is that when I connect up to the band sequencer, and playback a session we just recorded, the drum pattern plays back through the DTXpress as piano notes, instead of drum notes, despite my best efforts to counteract it.  The problem is quickly solved, various set-up options need to be changed, I forget which, but the brain still reverts to piano if you stop and start the sequencer again without any change to the parameters!! It can be cured by moving a parameter away from the desired one and back again, like channel instrument number or changing between Meldy and Drum (you know what I mean)

As for live work, well, the band I was using it in went real quiet on me, we all kind of felt it wasn't working out. I guess they figured I was right when they first asked me to play with them, when I said my style wasn't realy in keeping with their music.  Anyway, I tried to contact them, but no luck, now I notice they are doing another gig without me, oh well, no hard feelings, just wish they'd be mature enough to let me know!

So sorry Giles, no more live news, but it sounds like some of the other guys here are working it all out.

Good to see this board back in action.

Can you remind us all of this MIDI problem again? You
say it's just coming through as piano? Please remind
me of your setup as it's been that long...

BTW. How many gigs have you played with the DTXpress
now? Any comments?
