Set up the sr-16 to record a midi track into cakewalk pro audio 9. when i try to use the sr-16 as a sound module, and trigger some of the great sounds that i hear on the audio outs, i can never get them to sound. I verified the midi notes in cakewalk are correct (c1, c3, etc), and even changed them, and tried re-recording to see if that made a difference, but it did not. I keep hearing some very bland drum kit...i am assuming it is a general midi kit and sounding from the sound car...
I have attached the alesis .ins file to cake, and that is a joke. all of the rock kits do not sound, and the rest of the kits are VERY intermittant, and sound aweful, i might add.
I am able to trigger sounds from a remote midi controller (roland a-37), but even then, the sound within cakewalk sounds WAAAY different than what i hear on the audio outs. is there additional processing on the audio outs that adds some depth/reverb pr something...anyway, even with the midi controller, when i change drum sets on the sr-16, the controller does not detect this, and does not sound the sounds on the drum pads..whcih have changed from set to set....
I do have some soundfont files, and the midi file works fine with them. what i do not like about that is i am not sure if i can tweak each part of the kit (snare, kick, etc) as the kit loads and an entire entity...is there some way of breaking out the sf2 file, and tweaking all of the kit...or is the idea to load it and go...for the sake of speed and not getting into details?????
I am at the point with the sr-16, that i am ready to just settle on drum soundfonts, and not continue to try and get the machine to playback the great sound si hear when i run the machine through my stereo on the audio outs...it does sound great..
Any help is appreciated....very frustrated...
