TTS1 - midi edits keep resetting when restarting playback!

Hi there

I'm a pretty new Sonar PS 5 user and have been using the TTS1 as my main soft synth. The prob I have is that if I make edits - eg. to cutoff/res/EQ within the TTS1 edit area, each time I restart playback, everything reverts to the centre and my changes seem to be disregarded. I've noticed that portamento doesn't seem to be effected in the same way.

I found something I thought was involved in the Options>Project>MIDI Out section about "zeroing controllers when playback stops" but even when this option is unchecked, the same problem occurs!

Anyone had the same problem or know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks a heap!

Tim.

    I suggest you to check your MIDI tracks, perhaps you have some MIDI CC data on it such as 'All Controls Off' or 'All Notes Off' which is resetting all controllers when you hit play.
    You can try creating a new, empty project and draw a couple of notes to see if the behavior is the same. I don't have SONAR PS 5 here, I just tried it with SONAR6 and my changes to cutoff do not reset on transport.

    Hey Rene - thanks for the reply. Will check it out and see what's going on. I certainly haven't meant to add any controller data!! Funny how these things work :)
    Regards

    Hi Rene,

    My problem has always been that any patch or bank change set in the track properties causes all of the TTS-1 parameters (not patches) to reset themselves. This has always limited it's usefulness for me. Is there a way around this?

    Thanks,

    Dean

    Hello Dean,

    I see. If you make edits to a factory patch, and then change that patch, your edits are lost. What you can do is, after tweaking a patch, hit the WRITE button in TTS1 edit page to write your edited patch to the USER banks.

    Then instead of selecting the original patch from the track bank/program, select it from the user bank (set bank to the proper user location).


    Hope this helps.

    Thanks Rene. That does clarify it a bit but isn't that behavior different from other plug-ins?

    (I know this is a Roland app so you didnt' design the bahavior.)

    I don't know... is it?

    In many plug-ins, if you navigate to a new program and come back, settings are kept. In many others, settings are lost. It all depends if the designer followed Hardware paradigm or VST paradigm.

    When I save the edited TTS1 patch to the user bank 1 then exit out of Sonar and reload the song the patches are gone. Why is this happening. I even save the whole song after I save the user patch. Is this a glitch?

    Sounds like that, but I'd revise the procedure. I just tried in 6.2.1 and TTS-1 and it works for me.
