SOUND CANVAS..........

Don't overlook the:

Volume
PanPot
Expression
Reverb
Chorus
Delray

FUNCTION BUTTONS

Volume Button....click on to see the volume each instrument as been assigned, if the instrument playing the Melody is too loud simply decrease the volume.

Reverb Button....click on to see the amount of reverb each instrument as been assigned, experiment with the settings.

Chorus Button...MY FAVORITE...click on to see how the instruments sounds are enhanced. Love this button, especially on a Virbraphone

Here is what I do, kinda quick and dirty....

1. Load your midi song and play in Sound Canvas
2. Make the changes you want
3. While the music is playing click on the SETUP BUTTON
4. Click on the "ALL OFF" Button
5. Un-check the "RECEIVE ALL" Button
6. Click on APPLY and then OK.
5. Click on your AUDIO CONV Button
6. The "Convert with the same settings as those used for the song" should have a "Dot" in the Circle.
7. Then simply Click Save.......
8. That should do it.

ALSO.....

1. Go Control Panel / Multimedia
2. Click on the MIDI Tab
3. Make sure that "Roland VSC" is highlighted.
4. Click on Apply and OK.
