Wouldn't this risk causing feedback?

Thanks for the reply to my question and for the edits after I read the first version.

Forgive me. It seems like this is going around in circles and I am getting dizzy. So, I am trying to understand this. It seems to me that you want MIDI data from multiple MIDI Channels coming from different MIDI Tracks merged in such a way as to play a single instance of a Multi-Timbral software synth on a single Instrument track. Is that what your request is for?

Yup!!! Think of all the brand new, never thought of genres, sub-genres, sub-sub-genres, genre-morphs, etc. you can make!! Future Country Booty Sauce? ?

Just listened to/watched Movement 1. There's so much in there to love!!!! Thanks for sharing. (I will save Movements 2 and 3 for another time.)

Did you try inserting it as an Audio FX on an Audio Track by right clicking in the FX Bin and looking in the IK Multimedia > Folder list?

Sometimes patch editors/librarians export patch names as text files (or as an *.ins file, if the developer included that feature). Sometimes hardware manufacturers have a sysex command to send patch names.

Seems to me a good deal for those of us who already own this, too. Two sound banks for less than the price of one!!

Do the inconsistencies within Cakewalk disappear or remain if you use split tracks instead of instrument tracks?

I just spot checked a page and while it does list Cakewalk on the right-hand side as an available format, selecting that format says "No products were found matching your selection." However, selecting "Cakewalk Dimension PC" from the Format dropdown in the middle of the page does allow the product to be added to the Cart. [Testing done using the E-Mu Proteus Pack.]

For the record, I was not encouraging theft of intellectual property. And so far as I know, he (TS/DSF) owns the rights to absolutely and authoritatively sell the sounds/samples/presets and to convert them for sale to formats that didn't previously exist. However, I never heard that he had the rights to either sell or revise the Proteus X/Emulator X software (though I have thought of asking). In fact, as the owner of many bought and paid for legitimate E-Mu sample disks [originals], the presence of bootleg *.iso CDs of the E-Mu sample disks on archive.org greatly reduces (or eliminates) my ability legally to sell original [production run] copies. Any lawyers amongst the user base here that want to do some pro bono work on my behalf against archive.org? I am aware that over the years profiteers have attempted to sell bootleg copies of the CDs, but those very quickly were taken down. Again, just to be clear, in my post above to Bruno de Souza Lino, I was not encouraging the theft of intellectual property. Apologies if it seemed that way.

There are tons of E-Mu website captures at archive.org. If you know of any direct links to pages that actually lead to files that were captured and are downloadable, you can save someone tons of time looking through dead-end links by being more specific. Oh. I see. It looks like someone uploaded a "cracked" version as an iso file.

I have had a couple of issues with multiple [duplicate] midi devices from the same manufacturer cause problems and some work with no conflicts. I have not had issues (that I know of) where one manufacturer's device [driver] caused issues with another manufacturer's device. I have used some software [virtual] midi ports as well but never noticed a conflict unless I did something wrong. I have problem solved by looking at device manager, device properties, etc. and sometimes completely removing a device/driver and reinstalling one at a time with a PC power reboot to give Windows the chance to make a removed/added/updated device to settle in before adding another instance. Even so, with one manufacturer, I could only get 3 2x2 usb interfaces working at the same time. Its been a while since I problem solved midi device issues, but I seem to recall that the properties information for each instance of each device was useful. In my experience just with the gear I use personally it really depends. I don't have the gear you have, but maybe other users have experiences with them.

My understanding is that (1) it has nothing to do with the amount of memory our PCs have and (2) software that gives us that dialog is just reporting a message from our Microsoft OS. I know we "can't fight city hall," but maybe if enough of us ask MS politely, they will change that.

In my experience, the "not enough memory available" most often comes from software trying to access a midi port/device already being used by another piece of software. This has been mentioned many times in the Cakewalk Forum. I know--I have mentioned it myself (as have others). Let me see if I can find some links. Better yet, just search the forum for "not enough memory" [with the quotation marks].

Watching the demo reminded me of Time Has Come Today's use of delay echo (Chambers Brothers). Starting 2/3 of the way down:

Patchmix DSP works? Which drivers are you using? Also, which versions of the PCI Cards are you using? My 1820/1820m version of the main card used to work under Windows 10 with a 1212m daughter board, but after a Win 10 Update a couple of years ago, Patchmix DSP no longer worked. (Might have been one of the 18xx or 19xx updates.) I tried the hacks in the massive KVR thread without success. I would love to have it working again!!! So, any details that might help would be appreciated.

Bandlab Packs used to have MIDI files, too. Let me know if you find where they are these days.

I started the following draft reply yesterday with plans to first find links to some of the discussions in the forum before posting this. But I did not have the time to look. I am posting this now to reinforce what some other users have said and to add this: I specifically recall downloading a number of SF players and editors from one thread I found helpful within the past year or so. If I stumble onto that thread, I will post a link if it hasn't already been posted in this thread. ADDENDUM: BINGO!! Did a quick search in the forum for "soundfonts" and found this (among other threads). I think this one has some resources others have not mentioned in response to your Question. ------------------------ Draft of reply from yesterday not previously posted: I agree!!!!! Over the past two years or so, I have read a number of posts in the forum that talk about using SF/SF2s in Cakewalk. It seems that several people in the forum do use them. Maybe you could look them up and PM them for additional resources--maybe not videos if there aren't any, but there might be online text-based steps somewhere. I don't use them, so attaching a soundfont to a MIDI track sounds odd. As others have pointed out, in Cakewalk users can use software synths to play sounds.

Hope the current treatment and Vascular scan help lead to improved hearing. As a sufferer of hearing loss and tinnitus, I appreciate the update here. As for the connection with the nasal spray, did the ENT rule in or rule out infection/congestion related causes? Just wondering. PS: Yesterday I had a wisdom tooth that had erupted pulled (lots of Novocain). Probably purely coincidental but all afternoon and evening I didn't hear any of the usually constant tinnitus. Its back today. ?

I started to draft an answer with several possibilities, but first let me ask some diagnostic questions about your setup: Are you playing one synth [the SY 77's synth engine] from two different keyboards [the Fatar and the SY 77], possibly at the same time? If so, is the SY77's synth engine multitimbral? If so, are you playing different sounds in the SY77? If so, do you have the MIDI track inputs in Cakewalk [ I ] set to different MIDI Channels? Do you need MIDI data going from Cakewalk back to the Fatar?

Have you contacted him?

@dogufo Are you thinking that the SY77 doesn't qualify as a keyboard because it also includes a synth engine but the Fatar 88 is a keyboard because it is a controller without a built-in synth? Unless you have them mapped or merged CCs are channelized. AHA!!! You posted a Track View image in a different thread. To me this image might suggest why your foot pedals affect both tracks (as mentioned above re: [ I ] = Omni ). But depending on your setup/routing, MIDI Output [ O ] might also be an issue. If Track 1 [SY77] is also assigned to [ O ] 1-MIDI SPOR . . . when you have the MIDI Echo Button set to ON for both Tracks 1 and 2, you are telling Cakewalk to merge the MIDI Data to whatever is connected to [ O ] 1-MIDI SPORT . . . . Not sure if this is part of the issue, but maybe.

For future reference: Since we can't delete posts, I usually edit mine by using the Edit button. Sometimes I will erase an entire post and replace it with a short comment like, "[deleted]" with a reason posted in "Reason for edit" box. Others do likewise, such as "Duplicate post deleted." For deleting a sentence or two or a paragraph, we have the options of editing the post with a strikethrough font and a font color change. Hope this helps for the next time. ADDENDUM: I think the image suggests why your foot pedals affect both tracks (as mentions in another thread). If Track 1 [SY77] is also assigned to [O] 1-MIDI SPOR . . . , when you have the MIDI Echo Button set to ON for both Tracks 1 and 2, you are telling Cakewalk to merge the MIDI Data to whatever is connected to [O] 1-MIDI SPORT . . . . Apology for posting this OT [Off-Topic] reply here; I did not see the image in the other thread where you mentioned the problem. The above section was copied to the Q & A thread on the sustain pedal issue, but it relates to the image you have here.

Tone Clusters!!!! I have used them, but not recently. I don't have an answer for you, since I would just play them on my usb keyboard to enter the notes. But for purposes of clarification, can we assume: (1) you are talking about Cakewalk by Bandlab (as opposed to Bandlab [the browser-based app]) and (2) you are using Cakewalk's Staff View? I think you are, but based on the ambiguity, just wanted to ask. I haven't done this since I don't use the PRV, but maybe you might find it helpful to enter the notes in the PRV and then delete the ones you don't want? (From "writing [out] all the notes" I infer you are using Staff View, but maybe not.) UPDATE: Forgot to mention yesterday: I tried doing tone clusters my usual way (usb keyboard) as well as using the PRV and the virtual keyboard. Its a matter of personal workflow choice, but to me putting tone clusters in via the PRV was easier than putting them in on the staff.
