Issue with midi tracks on Moppy about moppyclassic

Sorry for the lag, it was Christmas break =D,

I can't help you out specifically with Logic Pro, but it sounds like what you're missing is separate channels for each drive. Basically, MIDI files can have a number of different "tracks" that contain a bunch of MIDI messages. Each message is address to a specific "channel" that is usually assigned to a particular instrument, or in this case, a particular floppy drive. Confusingly, multiple tracks can share a channel, and I think it's even possible for one track to send to multiple channels.

Either way, what you need to do is assign each of the tracks that you are creating to a different MIDI channel. Like I said, I'm not 100% sure how to do it in Logic Pro 8, but if you're using an "External Instrument" like this then I think you just need to assign a different "MIDI Destination" for each track when you're creating the MIDI. Weirdly, it looks like in Logic Pro that might force each track to a different instrument so things will sound weird (especially if you have 10 or more floppies), but that should do it I think.

Let me know if this helps.

No worries. This was my friend asking this, so I can't answer too much because I don't have any knowledge of the editing apps he uses.

We did eventually figure it out, seems to be something with the channels not being assigned properly. Thanks for the response though!

Glad you got it working!
