I'm running DP 4 ond OS X 10.2.6. Let me preface this - all my MIDI devices are working just fine with one problem. This may be a stupid question. When I set up my MIDI environment in OS X Audio/Midi set up, I descibe my equipment, cables etc. etc. When in DP4, I have no option to choose or change patches on any MIDI device. Since there were no pre-defined units to choose from in Audio/MIDI set up, I'm assumming there is no patch list information anywhere. I would think that I would at least get a defaualt Patch 1, Patch 2 etc. drop down list in DP4 when I click either the patch colum or the default patch column in the sequence window. The clicks do not do anything. I have no option to choose anything. The only thing I can do is select the device and MIDI channel, and then manually dial up the sound from the front panel of my MIDI device - major step backwards. 1. Is there a place to define my patches? 2. Why am I not seeing a drop down list of default (patch 1, patch 2 etc.) pathces for any instrument? Any help is appreciated. Thanks |

I suffer from the same problem as you.
Did you use DP 3 before and do you have a Freemidi configuration from that? If so you are able to convert your old Freemidi configuration and the patchlists that comes with DP3 (and DP4 too I think) These patchlists are factory made. So if you have special patch lists as I had, for devices like the Roland U110 they have disappeared forever in DP 4. What I know MOTU will release the patch editor/librarian called Unisyn 2.0 for OS X during 2003. I thought the program was a little bit difficult but that is probably the solution for making patchlists into DP4 later this year. Best Regards OS X and midi is just in the beginning, that's for sure. Perhaps we have to give a year or so before it is comparable with OS 9 from the patchlists point of view. |
