Hi all,
New here, to both recording and the community. I just have a question to ask.
I am using my M-Audio Oxygen 49 midi controller in Acid Pro 7, recording a soft synth through Native Instruments Massive.
I know how to record the soft synth, but here is my question. I am recording multiple MIDI tracks, all of which use Massive soft synth, most of which are the same preset. But when I go to record another MIDI track, using a different preset on Massive, Acid plays back the older MIDI tracks in the same preset currently being used, not the one I originally recorded them in.
My question is how do you record the MIDI tracks, so that they will stay as the same preset, during playback, and eventually when rendered.
Thanks in advance.

Each track with each different instrument will need to have a dedicated channel (1 - 16) and each preset in massive will need to be set to the corresponding channel.
There may be more info in the help files on setting up multiple channels and settings for getting that going. (assuming massive can do that of course, but it should be able to do that I would think)
If you have more than 16 tracks going through massive, you may need to set ports as well as channels. So, 1-16 on port 0, 1-16 on port 1. Etc.
