Rikki, I agree with you. You are going about it the correct way and you have the flexibility to do it your way.

Rikki,
Here are the answers to the questions you asked me:
1) MIDI in: SB Live! MIDI port
2) MIDI out:
Microsoft MIDI mapper
SB Live! Synth B
SB Live! SW synth (what is that?)
SB Live! Synth A
SB Live! MIDI port
Microsoft GS wavetable SW synth
3) I have 512 MB ram in my computer.
I didn't have much time to play this weekend. Too busy in the garden. I changed channels 1 - 4 in MIDI out to MIDI port and turned LOCAL OFF. Styles play fine - no lead voices from my Roland. Will have to investigate next weekend.

Hi Starkeeper,

OMB Midi Out Settings
Midi Channels 1 to 4 : midiport

Did you check on the main Voices page OMB :
that the voices you want to use are set to "Enable" be it voice 1, 2 etc
and also check that
voice 1 is midi channel 1
voice 2 is midi channel 2 etc
just in case yours has been altered.

The only other thing I can think of is that there may be some sort of a midi setting you need to change in your roland

try setting all your midi outs to midiport and see if you get accomp & melody playing with local off.

best wishes
Rikki
