Why won't MainStage send program change MIDI to external synths

One of the main reasons i moved to mainstage was the ability to seanlessly use both the mainstage sounds plus the internal sounds in my hardware synths . Since i upreaded to mainstage 3 i cant send program change MIDI to external synths ... I really need to have this resolved . it is critical

Seems to be working for me. I can send in a program change, and the external instrument channel strip will send out the correct program change.
I did notice that new patches I added have their own program change number, so I had to set it to what I wanted (for the mainstage patch itself, under attributes).
So, starting from the begining, I :
- added an External Instrument channel to my existing MS patch
- I set the output of that new channel to the correct midi output device
- I selected the ext. instr. channel and then went to the inspector->MIDI Output tab and checked the box "Send Program Change" and I selected a prog. change number
I monitored this output using MIDI Monitor and it all looked correct.
I hope this helps...

Send Program Change bug in Logic 7.2.2

I recently got a Mac Pro 3.0, and installed Logic 7.2.2. In general things are
going okay, but I recently found a bug and I wonder if anyone else has run
into it. I have a fairly extensive studio setup (6 Gigasamplers, some hardware
samplers, quite a few synths, etc.) and have been working on an older G5
with few problems, still running 7.2.1. When I open up a sequence on the Mac Pro with Logic
7.2.2, it checks all the Send Program Change boxes on every midi channel of
every instrument in the environment. This plays havoc with my studio setup,
since I don't often use Logic to send program changes. I have since built a
new environment in Logic 7.2.2 with all the boxes unchecked, and I import
that to fix the problem, but I have many sequences on the old G5 I will need
to open on the new machine. Anyone else run into this? Any global fixes?
Thanks...
Mac Pro 3.0, G5 2.5 Mac OS X (10.4.7) Logic 7.2.2, 7.2.1

I've had strangeness with the global tracks during a mix. I had the "tempo" track causing notes to change pitch and cause midibog. Time signature works ok.

Send Program Changes in GarageBand?

Can you send Program Changes from a MIDI controller in GarageBand?

No, you can't change the instrument of a track via midi.

Is this for text you've already typed? Did you select it first? If that's not it, for PSE 11 and 12 go to the far right of the tool options, click the four-lined square and choose Reset Tool. For PSE 10 and earlier go to the far left options bar, click the tiny triangle (or the tool icon for really old versions) and choose Reset Tool.

Sending Program Changes to external MIDI device

Just getting started with MainStage, so excuse the basic question . . .
I'd like to use MainStage with two main pieces of hardware – an Elektron Monomachine acting as the master clock and sequencer, and a Machinedrum, which is slaved to the Monomachine. I'm running MainStage to use a soft synth or two sequenced from the Monomachine, and for effects. So far so good.
Patterns on the Machinedrum are selected externally with MIDI Program Changes. Conversely, when you select patterns on the Monomachine, it sends out a Program Change message so that you can lock the two machines together pattern-wise.
In Layout mode, I drop in a rotary knob, hit the Learn button and change patterns three times on the Monomachine; the knob says Program Change and the number of the Program (all correct).
Next, in the Patch editor, I map that screen control to Machinedrum > MIDI Controller > Program Change. If I turn the knob using the mouse, it changes the Program (pattern) on the Machinedrum (all correct).
BUT . . . now (in either Edit or Perform mode) when I change the pattern on the Monomachine (sending a Program Change message), the knob doesn't move. I see the Program Change message being received by MainStage in the MIDI monitor, but it doesn't get routed to the screen control.
What could I be doing wrong? Why does it respond correctly in Learn mode, but then not in Edit or Perform mode?

Hi
Could it be that MS thinks the incoming PC messages are intended to change MS patches?
In Edit mode, select the Concert in the Patch list, and change the Program Change Device/channel etc in the Attributes Inspector to something other than the Mono

ABAP Email Sending Program: Change Display user name in email

Hi All,
I have developed an email sending program using function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1. It is working fine but there is requirement that when the customer receives email, in the display name of sender, there should be some fixed name. But here in this case it is picking the Sy-uname i.e. system user name who is triggering the program.
I also tried the FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1, but it only changes senders email address, and the requirement is to change the display name in email.
Regards,
Nikhil

You will have to use ABAP class CL_BCS. With it you can specify the sender, both the address and the name.
          lv_smtp_addr = iv_senderaddress.
          lv_smtp_name = iv_sendername.
          call method cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address
            exporting
              i_address_string = lv_smtp_addr
              i_address_name = lv_smtp_name
            receiving
              result          = lo_sender_address.

Javax.sound.midi and external synths?

Since I don't have a USB-to-MIDI adapter (and I lost my MIDI cables long ago), I gotta just ask: if I had an external MIDI device connected to my computer, would javax.sound.midi.getMidiDeviceInfo() theoretically return a MidiDevice object describing it? Or is javax.sound.midi really just for the computer's own music synthesizer?
--Chris (invalidname)

see bug 4356787. MIDI for external devices is broken.
Add it to your bug parade votes. Let's get Sun to
address this.will do... not like they're going to fix my other favorite bug (4119391 - RMI in real-world networks)
Thanks.

Why won't iMessage send from my iPad to a contact who has an iPhone and uses iMessage on her iPhone?

Sometimes when I'm using my iPad and I want to send a message via iMessage it won't let me. This happens even when I know that the recipient has an iPhone and uses the iMessage app on her iPhone. Why is that? I can use iMessage from my iPhone and it will go to her iPhone. Why can't it work from my iPad.?

Why won't it send me an email?

All I want to do is gift my friend an app, but because the stupid new software won't let me I have to use my laptop and since I never used it before, I have to enter my security questions, and I don't remember them. So I'm at the website trying to change them, and I must have clicked on the " send an email on how to reset them" 50 times, and guess what!!! NO EMAIL! I have been doing this for like 7 hours so someone help me before so throw my laptop at the wall!!!

Your rant is unanswerable as you don't say:
what Mac or iDevice you are using.
What operating systen.
What 'stupid new software'.
What website.

Why won't my audio loops and MIDI loops sync together in a project?

I have a number of guitar riffs in a project that I've been making into loops, as I wish to use these as ideas which I arrange in a new project. I've been saving the edited regions of the riffs by going to Region>Add To Apple Loops Library> and saving it as a loop, which is supposed to conform to tempo as stated. These are a blue icon with a little soundwave icon in it.
I have been doing the same with drum loops that I have created using the piano roll. These have a green icon with a note inside it.
I want to use these to create arrangements in a new file. Obviously I need them both to conform to various tempos together.
Why are my guitar riff loops comforming to my global tempo track, but as soon as I add a drum loop and change the tempo, the drum loop will conform but not the guitar.
I've also tried exporting each of the guitar riff (regions) as audio files because I read something in the manual about the audio files needing to be saved in as SDII to conform to tempo, but that doesn't work either.
What's the deal?

I'm no guru, I'm a neophyte, but I'm interested in the problem anyway.
"I have a number of guitar riffs in a project that I've been making into loops... I've been saving the edited regions of the riffs by going to Region>Add..."
I assume all of these regions are audio regions. Do they all have an anchor assigned to whatever you consider the downbeat?
"I've also tried exporting each of the guitar riff (regions) as audio files..."
Once imported anew, again, is there an anchor indicated. I think that may be key.
You say that sometimes they work? What have you changed when they do? The tempo?

Why won't my downloaded programs run? I have downloaded Java and a Cardo Scala bluetooth updater, they downloaded, and installed but won't run or be recognized/detected by the respective websites.

I have recently downloaded an "updater" program for my Cardo Scala bluetooth helmet headset and the most recent Java update for OS X 10.6.8 Both times the download was sucessful, when the installer ran, it said it was installed successfully BUT...in both cases it doesn't appear to run. Both respective websites don't recognize it is loaded on my MacBook Pro. Am I missing an installation step or have a setting wrong??

OK so here we go I installed windows again and everything seems to be working as normal so I put the disc in and I took screen shots but it won't load them for some reason but anyways here it is. These are the files and what happens when I click on them
Audio file     audio files always able to access
Video file     same as audio
xSprocket     several worksheets and things like that
xtras          more program files
autorun      when I click on it saws notepad is too small I need a bigger editor
readme      system requirements
TN_active teach file     when opened on the mac side it says its a powerpc product it won't open and on the windows side it switches to mac and opens stuffit expander (the compression thing I told you about) and then creates a file with nothing in it
TN_active teach application when I open it on windows it says its not a valid win32 application and on mac side it switches to windows and says the same thing
the link you posted BobTheFisherman was very helpful except for the fact that I need to install it first but I tried anyways and the indicated files had not been made yet.
In the end though I've come to the conclusion that it is not a Parallels or mac problem but simply one of the software I'm going to look for other windows programs to test how they work though just to prove my hypothesis I thank both of you for your efforts on helping me.

HT5312 why won't Apple send the verification to my email?

I forgot my security questions and I pressed "send to email" so that I could change them but every time I check my email there is no email from them. I've even checked spam and all I want to do is download music on my new iPhone

You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
