Patch List Problems!, triton extreme midi in pro tools Options

[toxicsheep]

I am running a Triton Extreme through MIDI into Pro tool 6.4. I am using a midinam patch list file I found on the internet, but there is a problem. The patch file was created from the program banks on the triton, but when ever I choose a patch name through patch list in pro tools, my triton just goes into the corresponding sound in the general midi (G) bank instead of to intended bank and patch. And changing banks in the patch list window has no effect, its still stays in genreal midi.
Actually, the default bank when the triton is turned on is from the combination banks, which arent in the patch list, so when I change patches in combination it stays in the original combination bank and doesnt go to GM. It actually changes to different sounds within that bank, regardless of whether I change to a different bank in the list window. So to get to the program banks I click "Program" on the keyboard. (As opposed to "Combination") So I would expect the bank and program selesction on the list widow to activate the correct sound selection in the triton, but all I get is general midi sounds!! I dont know if this problem is with the triton, sequencer, patch file, or my audio midi setup. What is wrong?

Re: General MIDI/Korg patches:

1. Press Global button and choose Pref tab.
2. Under Bank Map, change from GM(2) to KORG.
3. Press Utility and choose Write Global Setting.
4. Press OK.

Now the Triton will always respond the way you want it to.

Re: Combinations/Programs:

I use a Triton-Rack. I've set up this machine (and my Karma) with my own .midnam patchlists that include both Combinations and Programs. Unfortunately, since the Extreme's bank layout is completely different from that of the Rack, my document would be useless to you.

But it can be done easily enough – all it takes is the time to type in the Combi names (and don't forget that some characters are now illegal in the .xml format). I learned to touch-type years ago so it just took me a couple of hours to do the 26 Banks on the Rack.

You could also download the PDF Voice Name List from the Korg site and try doing a cut'n'paste job.

Good luck!
