I think your problem is that not all performances are multitimbral, ie 16 channels, each with a different MIDI channel. All you need is one performance set up so that cha 1 =MIDI cha 1, cha 2 = MIDI cha 2 and so on. Save this as your default performance, and use the instrument parameter of each Logic MIDI instrument or each part of a Logic multi to choose the patch, volume, panning etc parameters in the Roland. If this doesn't make sense there is a bit more manual reading to do or ask the question to Roland list. Pete www.petethomas.co.uk www.soundtrack-composer.co.uk
