This isn't really unrelated.. I dunno. Anyway, I noticed something new and bad while working in Cubasis last night. Whenever my it sends midi data to my keyboard, the keyboard (a cs1x) sends a quiet little clickingish sound to my amp. When I leave Cubasis and use the keyboard in local mode, no click. It's strange, the more data, the more clicks. For example, turning a knob or the modwheel produces a million clicky sounds, but playing a note only gives one little one. Anyone else experience this? noah np: amon tobin, bricolage

That's the sound of the teeny weeny MIDI fairies snapping their fingers! Actually it's just the MIDI data stream somehow sneaking into the audio path. Anyone with a soundcard can usually crank up the gain on their sound card and hear the sound of the mouse scurrying across the screen. --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Psyche manifests as psychic through something we call 'winding', because it twists, and puts things that were far apart next to each other, complicatedly, taffywise." -- winona on channel 78 Kent Williams kent@inav.net -- http://soli.inav.net/~kent
