In your file there are these events: Control Change (controller 0, value 2) Program Change (program 127) Control Change (controller 7, value 100) But according to GM2 specification controllers 0 and 32 should be used as bank MSB (which should be 0x79 121) LSB, and then program change should go.Once you have received the verification code, you will be able to choose a new password for your account.I tried to use sysex event to turn GM2 on, but it didnt help.Only I read that the quality of the sounds in the set is VERY low,and there are other performance problems, so this product is highly depracated.
Such replacements could be added fairly easily within XP, much less easy within W7, and by W10 so complicated as to be almost impossible (needing 3rd party driverssupport). Regarding GM2, Im not sure that there is a standard soundset, other than the intention that GM2 will still support the basic GM 128 sound set. Within GM2, the structure of the sounds is different, and while the GM1 128 may still be there, many (most ) of them have optional sounds as alternatives, so there may be a number of multiples of 128 sounds overall. Different manufacturers may not have the same optional extra items, so if youre using the extra Bank Select options to bring in the extra sounds the results might vary between manufacturers andor devices. I would also suggest that the midi mechanism (using Bank Select MSBLSB) and Patch Change may be similar between Mfgs, but not always identical. If devices are specifically GM2, then they OUGHT to support the GM2 soundset. ![]() Such as the Dog sound you mention Which device have you heard that sound on Was it listed as a first level sound, or as an alternative to one of the 128 first leven (GM1 compatible) sounds Doing my own check, Dog is an alternative sound (bank 1) for Bird Tweet (standard sound 124, Bank 0). If a playing device is GM2 compatible, you would select this via LSBBank setting, NOT via SYSEX. Geoff. But there is also universal sysex event Turn GM2 on so I hoped it will help to enable GM2 soundset on Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth. Gm2 Software That WillI need to test GM2 playback (Im writing.NET library), so maybe you can suggest software that will produce different sounds for Dog and Bird Tweet Yes, this sounds are in the same GM1 group, they differ only in bank LSB preceding program change event. I suggest you look at the web pages for CoolSofts Virtual Midi Synth - the page(s) give some useful background info about the problems here, and they do have some supporting system which should work re W10 to allow their synth to be linked in although Ive not used that. Having got the system working, then its a matter of finding a Sound Font library that contains the sounds you want. There are links to various options on the VMS page, and you can find others indirectly. Ive used the Timbres of Heaven lib which has some very nice sounds, but I dont think it has the ones you want. Note this lib is many times bigger than the lib that comes with the MS default system Maybe you need to look for something specifically GM2 compatible. It has a main bank re standard GM sounds, and various ancilliary banks which might provide sufficient options to test what you want to test Get back if theres any further queries. Geoff There are other virtual synth packages, but as I said, Ive used this one. Later. Ive just looked at the sounds list for TofH, and I note that Dog is there, and its numbered in such a way that the GM2 commands would bring it up. It also interprets any of the following GM messages as reset back to General MIDI Level 1: GM1 System On (F0 7E 7F 09 01 F7) GM System Off (F0 7E 7F 09 02 F7) GM2 System On (F0 7E 7F 09 03 F7) In fact, the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth appears to let you turn on the GS mode with F0 41 xx 42 12 40 00 7F 00 xx F7, and return to the General MIDI mode with F0 7E xx 09 xx F7, where each of the xx bytes can be anything. Of course, its a good idea to stick with the official GS Reset and GM1 System On messages shown above to ensure compatibility with other devices. For example, lets take a look at bank selection for Lasergun sound.
