When inserting an instance of the tts1 or any synth, you get that dialog box
that asks, among other things, whether you want midi & audio tracks inserted
along with the synth. I don't bother adding these tracks. Instead, using the
normal template with 16 midi tracks already available, I set the tts1 as the
output device. Then I go to track 17 which is the first of eight audio tracks
in the normal template and set the input as TTS1, and the output as MASTER.
Then using tracks properties dialog for the individual MIDI tracks, I set up
the bank & patches I want. Notice that each of the 16 midi tracks using that
tts1 use track 17 as the audio output track. Each midi track has its own
channel# as well. Once an instance of tts1 is installed, you can use that one
instance in all 16 midi tracks with only 1 audio output track.
Phew! Hope that helps.

So do I create multiple bracks of the TTS1, one track for each instrument,
and then assign each instrument its own unique channel, reserving Channel 10
for drums? Or is there some way to insert only one instance of the TTS1 but
then, instead of inserting a new DXI for each additional track/instrument,
creating those new instruments/tracks from the first DXI I inserted? (I've
been inserting a new DXI for each new instrument/track.)

Well, in the case of tts1, that is a multitimbral synth. You can just
assign other midi tracks to the port that is created when you insert the tts1
and set it to another channel.

Hi,
Is there some other way to set up tracks? I thought you had to have a
separate inserted DXI track for each instrument anyway? (Now I KNOW I'm
missing something!)

Stephanie:
If you want to have different instruments on each track, you have to
have each track set to a separate midi channel unless you are inserting a
separate instance of tts for each track, which would use up a lot of system
resources.

I have been setting all my TTS1 tracks to Channel 1. Should I assign
different channels for each individual track? If so, why is this? It's been
working with everything using channel 1, but I could be missing something ..
