| === I just wrote my 16/32/64 GB SD card with a Zynthian image, but from Zynthian's console i only see a part of SD's total space and i've no free space left in the partition.

− | After writing the Zynthian image in the SD card, you have to "expand" the partition to fill all the available space.

− | === Can i play a MIDI track with Zynthian as a multi instrument expander (different instruments on different channels)? If I have such a setup: how can I store it? ===
| |
− |
| |
− | You can create such a setup by using the channel list and configuring different presets on each channel. This will work with the next Synth Engines:
| |
− |
| |
− | + ZynAddSubFX
| |
− | + LinuxSampler
| |
− | + FluidSynth
| |
− |
| |
− | setBfree tries to emulate the original Hammond B3 configuration. It has a fixed setup of 2 manuals (upper and lower) and pedals, arranged in channels 1, 2 and 3.
| |
− |
| |
− | With Carla, the channel list doesn't work, but you can setup a MIDI splitter/router inside Carla and configure different plugins/effects in each channel or create more complex setups. No limits (well, CPU ;-).
| |
− |
| |
− | Remember that currently you can only work with one engine at a time, but using Carla you can load all the engines as plugins, so you may be using Carla for your complex multi-engine setups.
| |
− |
| |
− | Currently, it's not possible to save Zynthian status, that includes multi-channel setups. It would be implemented as soon as possible. In the other hand, Carla patches can be saved an restored without problem, including controller mapping and assignment.

− | === I try to put some GIG files inside the '''zynthian-my-data/soundfonts''' folder, but Zynthian GUI don't show my files. What am i doing wrong? ===
| |
− |
| |
− | The files dropped directly inside "gig" directory wont be shown. You must create some subfolder (category) inside the gig folder. The same is true for SFZs soundfonts.
