OK... Soundfonts sometimes work, sometimes not

I am new to Soundfonts. Downloaded SoundFontSynth that comes with a bunch of stuff, and also downloaded some individual soundfonts that can be used in DSLMusicDevice. It did take me forever to figure out where to put the soundfonts as the instructions are less than helpful.
I've been experimenting in GB and have a question.
When working with a midi file in GB and I want to change one or more of the instruments - Why do soundfonts sometimes work and sometimes not? Either it plays at its default instrument and won't change, or no sound at all, or sometimes it works fine.
It does work fine with my usb keyboard.
Thanks,
Diane

  • [LAVA Cross Post] CTRL+SHIFT+ Shortcuts sometimes not working in LabVIEW

    Cross-post from LAVA: http://lavag.org/topic/15619-ctrlshift-shortcuts-sometimes-not-working-in-labview/
    See the above post for more information - here's a synopsis:
    CTRL+SHIFT modifiers are not working while running LabVIEW in a Parallels 7 virtual machine. This problem affects both LV2011 and LV2012. I'm not certain that this is a LabVIEW bug - could be an issue with my virtual machine environment or it's configuration - except that CTRL+SHIFT modifiers work in other applications on the affected VMs. It's just LabVIEW that appears to ignore shortcuts with the CTRL+SHIFT modifiers.
    Any ideas?

  • Macbook Air Late 2010 model, 10.6.7, 2.13 4g ram. Trackpad is not working properly and in sometimes not at all.

    Macbook Air Late 2010 model, 10.6.7, 2.13 4g ram. Trackpad is not working properly and in sometimes not at all. Need suggestions to resolve this issue?  I have applied all Mac updates and still having problems with the trackpad.

    The machine has a 1 year warranty, book an appointment with your local Apple Store or AASP to have it looked at.
    You can try doing a SMC reset however I don't think that is the solution.

    • Shut down the computer.
    • Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    • On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-• Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    • Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    • Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    • Shut down the computer.
    • Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    • Turn on the computer.
    • Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    • Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    • Release the keys.

  • My iTunes v.10.6.3.25 is intermittently refusing to open. Sometimes re-booting my laptop works, sometimes not. I just put the computer to sleep, and when I woke it up, iTunes started automatically. Any thoughts?

    My iTunes v.10.6.3.25 is intermittently refusing to open. Sometimes re-booting my laptop works, sometimes not. I just put the computer to sleep, and when I woke it up, iTunes started automatically (I had been trying to open it just before by clicking on a song file in my Documents window, and that's the song that started playing when the pc woke up). I went to my iTunes Help and clicked Updates/download iTunes 10.7 twice, but got nothing. Now, Im wondering if I should downloacd the entire 10.7, or whether that would overwrite all my files, erasing my songs. Anybody know? Thanks.

    Hey thanks for replying.
    Here's what I did:
    First I tried the Winsock reset in the Command prompt. Nothing changed.
    Next, I tried the instructions on http://http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123. The only other program that came up on the 'Winsock Providers' tab on the program was 2 Windows Live applications, which I can do without. So I deleted all Windows Live Applications.
    I did the Winsock reset in the Command Prompt again and rebooted my comp.
    Unfortunately, nothing has changed. iTunes keeps freezing at various stages of the sync, then shows the candy cane-striped bar with either the words 'Finishing sync' or 'Cancelling sync', before showing the Apple logo.
    Sometimes, iTunes gets to the syncing stage - "Copying # of ####" - where it will trudge through the first, second and third tracks before flashing "Copying 4 of ####" for a split second and I catch "Cancelling sync" briefly before the Apple logo appears.
    Again, I've repeated the steps I mentioned in my previous post. Does ANYONE know when the new version of iTunes is set to be released?! This one is driving me INSANE, to say the least!!

  • Mark debug 'sometimes' not working

    I find mark debug sometimes not working.In my new project ,I add mark debug = true, then set up the debug nets.I can't find them in the assigned nets ,but from the netlists I find some of them.The missing nets are wire type,notregister type.Does the command not work on wire type nets?
    Because my project is very large, searching for the nets requires a very long time.So I hope Xilinx can fix this bug.

    Rather than open another thread, I'll extend this one since I'm having what I think is the same problem.
    I'm using Vivado 2014.4.  "Flatten" is set to "None".  The nets are set in the elaborated design with MARK_DEBUG and DONT_TOUCH.  But when synthesis gets done with them, the names are completely different.
    I don't care if the "equivalent" nets are still there.  I need the names.  Every time synthesis runs, it's a crapshoot whether the names will change.  Particularly bad are 500+ bit buses that get exploded into individual signals.  I don't have the time to regather them into the proper buses every time.
    In general, I've been pleased with the changes in Viviado.  But I can't believe how badly a wonderful tool like ChipScope has been screwed up.
     

  • Syncing of Notes is very inconsistent - sometimes works, sometimes not

    The syncing of notes is inconsistent. Sometimes it syncs properly, sometimes not. I had a note with a food list, deleted stuff on the phone, and the sync brought back all the stuff I had deleted. I tried syncing with Mail not running and same deal - sometimes it works, sometimes not. It seems to work better if I edit the note on the Mac. In that case the changes always seem to work.

    Hello caryehart,
    It sounds like your touchscreen is erratically functioning for you. I recommend the troubleshooting in the following article:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
    Restart your device
    Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
    Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
    If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
    If the steps above don't resolve your issue, please schedule a service appointment with an Apple Retail Store for evaluation. If an Apple Retail store is not an option, contact Apple to find out your best service option or see the Service FAQ for your product.
    If it comes down to contacting Apple with the above link, I would recommend you backup and restore your iPhone as a new device:
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    If it seems to function correctly after that, I would restore the backup and either verify that it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Equium L40-156 - Indicator WLAN sometimes not work

    Hello peoples - has anyone any idea wha this is bout?
    I cant seem to find a similar problem anywhere. The indicator light for the wireless connection will sometimes not work - as a result i have to manually go into network connection and turn on wireless cap. - this will not turn the light on but does allow me to access the internet.
    This happens for a few weeks and then it all rights itself for a few weeks,
    Then it happens again.

    Hi
    Do you mean this issue happens sometimes but in most cases you can enable the WLan properly?
    First of all to enable the WLan you have to move the WLan antenna switch to ON (be sure that it has been switched properly to the right) and you have I use the FN+F8 key combination.
    Usually this enables the WLan.
    Im not sure why the WLan antenna switch does not work sometimes maybe its a hardware issue; for example loose connection or the switch was not moved properly who knows
    Maybe it would be a good idea to ask an technician for a WLan switch check...

  • Applescript sometimes not working in saving a Safari website

    I have a script to check if there are certain items on Ebay.  The script is on my server and than emails me the archive. 
    I use the following script that only works haphazardly.  sometime it saves it sometimes not.  at all times it opens the web-site, no problem.  However the saving is a hit and miss.  And I do not understand why.  anybody see as to why?
    tell application "Safari"
      activate
      delay 5
              tell application "System Events"
                        tell application "Safari" to activate
                        keystroke ("http://www.ebay.co.uk")

    Pierre Bonjour.
    It works under 10.6 too.  Thanks.
    Since both scripts work it gives me a few options.
    I amended your script a tick to ad a name to the file.  I did this since it gets e-mailed later and as such the name will be constant when scripting to e-mail it.
    here it is.
    open location "http://www.ebay.co.uk"
    repeat until application "Safari" exists
      delay 4 -- wait until application "Safari" exists
    end repeat
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Safari"

              repeat until enabled of theMenuItem is true
      delay 4 -- wait until the window is completely loaded
              end repeat
      delay 1
      keystroke "s" using {command down} -- save

  • Uploading Files Using InputFile Component -- Sometimes not working

    Hello,
    This is the 2nd time I make a post about it!
    Because I have more than 1 application using upload, and everything is correct! But it doesn't work as it should!
    You can check the original post here: Uploading Files Using InputFile Component - Sometimes not working
    I need a solution please!
    The only thing we can conclude is that it could be a bug from oracle !!! (???) But I talked with other people and they say that it works fine for them.
    There is one important thing: when we put a form to "Uses Upload = true" it seems that the page doesn't work very normal. For exemple: if you use a table in a form that uses upload the table get's "crazy".
    Thanks,
    JP

    I have now access to METALINK!
    I can find some problems and patches about inputFile but not mine! I will check better later!
    I think the problem is caused because of my framework!
