Torture Artist

I've been suffering with a MIDI problem that I cannot crack, and my 

last step has failed, so I'm now looking for help.

My issue is that when once I use the mod wheel from my Korg K61P I no 

longer get any sound output through the AU DLS Synth 1. I've just 

gone back to the MIDIBasics tutorial to step through that and see what 

will happen in the most basic circumstance. I open the patch, check 

my midiin and midiout devices, play the keyboard, hear the synthesized 

piano notes. Same thing works for the message box example. Then I 

play with the ctlin example, and once I move that mod wheel, no 

sound. When I play the keyboard, I see the midi notes coming in, and 

the AU DLS Synth 1 is still selected, but there's no sound. It 

appears midiout is being broken from the mod wheel, but I can't be 

sure. Closing the patch and reopening fails to solve the issue. 

Closing Max and relaunching does. But that's clearly problematic.

I'm not saying the problem is Max, it may be in the Korg driver, etc., 

but if anyone has experienced anything similar, I would appreciate any 

suggestions to assist my trouble-shooting.

Without seeing the patch, it's a little hard to offer much in the way 

That said, I have seen some curious behavior, mostly with channel 1 

with the AU DLS synth. Once channel 1 is bad, do you still get sound

Without seeing the patch, it's a little hard to offer much in the way  
of concrete opinions.

out of other channels?

hey i'm getting the same problem except that i can still hear the synth a tiny bit. pretty frustrating. i'm working on it at the moment to see what i can do.

Try to send a 127 on controller No. 7. If it helps, you have to look 

where you send Midi volume message to the Synth.

Sometimes one can forget also that low velocities produce very low 

As noted already, without a patch, all is a guess...
