#Midi Problem Resolved!
8 messages in this thread
Dom (and others who replied):
I finally discovered what was causing me to have the unusual problem
with Bars & Pipes Pro and my midi setup. You will recall my recent
post in which I described my midi setup and the fact that everytime I
loaded a new song, I had to replace Triple Play Plus 1 out tool with
the TPP 2 out tool, play a few notes, and then return to TPP 1 out
tool to get any sound out of my Kurzweil K-2000. Like most bizarre
problems, the solution was a simple one. Upon opening the
accessories, I discovered that although Triple Play Plus was loaded
as an accessory, *none* of the outputs were selected (i.e. in red).
Upon selecting the TPP1 box, everything played perfectly. I have no
idea how all three TPP boxes got deselected. or why the ritualistic
exchange of TPP1 for TPP2 suddenly activated the system and resulted
in proper playing of the K-2000, but the solution has been simple,
ie.e load the song, open accessories, select TPP1, close, and save.
From then on, everytime the song is opened, the K-2000 plays
perfectly from the first note.
Many thanks to all of you who offered suggestions.

Whew!!!
Happy Composing…

Thanks for listening to my problem. I don't know why I never thought
to check in the accessory drawer for the status of the Triple Play
Plus accessory. I suppose it's because I have no idea how it ever
became totally deselected, i.e. none of the TPP plus outs selected.
Somehow this occurred about the same time I purchased the Yamaha
P-100 clavinova. In any case, I'm terribly relieve to be free of the
"TPP ritual" and thoroughly enjoying Bars & Pipes 2.0. Incidentally,
I have downloaded all the tool updates and the Blue Ribbon.library
update from your BBS. The 9600 baud rate really helps in
downloading. Thanks again for your help.
Tom,
Glad to hear everything is up and running.
A quick question:
Is it possible to put more than one output tool on a pipeline, say any two
of the TPP outputs.

I've never tried to put more than one TPP output tool on a single
pipeline. I'll give it a try, and let you know the results but I
would bet that you can't do it. I'll get back to you when I've had a
chance to try this.

That is correct (you can't do that), but you can get the same effect by putting
a branch out tool and a merge tool on another track, and then merging the two
together.
Have fun!

Glad to hear it's fixed, Thomas!
Let me know if I can ever be of any assistance.
