Help! I am asking for help from any one who is familiar with MIDI and Bars & Pipes. I have the manuals and please don't quote the old RTFM back to me..... This problem seems to be one that obeys Mr Murphy. What has happened: Originaly I had an early version of B&P and decided to buy a "cheap" keyboard with MIDI. After a long time I got the latest version of B&P and even bofore that I realised the keyboard was somewhat limited in its features: 5 chanels for a starter. So anyway I indulged myself in a MIDI module and started to get some files. Well, I am not a musical person myself, but I can indulge myself in playing about with the patch numbers and things like that...... So I am mucked about with a simple version of the Entertainer (Scott Joplin) and it had two tracks - trebble and bass. So I also learnt about CC#10 (pan). If the value = 0, left and if = 127, right. (and put each on a seperate midi channel number) So I mucked about with the values and put the bass to 0 and the trebble to 127, so it would "look" like a real piano. When I double click on the track window, and play the track from within the window, all is sweet, but when I play the song, both bass and trebble come out the one speaker. I know a person who has a copy that does work, but I would really like to know / learn why this is happening. Please reply direct. Many thanks in advance. Andrew abruno@zeta.org.au

If you are getting only one speaker playing, have you checked all your hardware connections? Have you checked the settings on the module itself? Is it a stereo module? Do the part parameters on the module have panning? Are you 100% sure you are setting the track volume controls properly? There are many factors and it may be difficult to give you the answer conclusively. Can you supply more info? wavegirl
