Re: Switching between instruments using Program Change messages

ccherrett, All I can say is, "Wow!" Your setup looks impressive. Our school purchased the VI libraries from a studio that was closing down; from what I've been told by our purchasing people, it was quite a difficult process. We were told the 1st Ed. library was obsolete and no comparison, and useles...

I believe we have $5,000.00 or more invested in the library, and have mainly been using the new sets on our Macs and Windows ma...

Re: Switching between instruments using Program Change messages

Yes it can be done. I am using the VSL libraries and this is how they have done it with their instruments. One .gig file will have many different articulations of that instrument in one file controlled by program change events. You can use the event change editor in rosegarden to map change events ...
