Q: Something wrong with drum sounds. I hear only piano or something similar.
A: Please make sure you use proper drumkits settings. General MIDI devices use General MIDI kits, SoundBlaster cards (AWE, Gold, Live, Audigy and so on) use Roland GS drumkits. Each drumkits set uses it's own type of program select message. Please keep it in mind.

Q: I've started the DrumFlow at the first time but I don't hear anything when I play the drum. What's wrong?
A: Make sure that your MIDI device is selected in Configuration window. If not, manually select it and click 'Save setting' checkbox. After closing this window, information will be saved for future sessions.

Q: I have good wavetable soundcard, but effects (like filter or chorus) don't work. Why?
A: Great MIDI effects is designed mainly by Yamaha XG MIDI, but not only. Roland GS standard supports some types of effects, so check your card or device specifications.

Q: I can't copy the drum patterns to my MIDI sequencer. I've tried MIDI export feature, but it was disabled. What have I to do?
A: MIDI export function can only be used in the registered version of the DrumFlow. Click here to get more information about the registration.

Q: Is it possible to create my own drumkit combining the modified drum sounds of different standard drumkits?
A: Unfortunately, no. It's impossible because of the MIDI standard. You cannot combine drums from different banks in one MIDI channel. There is one of the solutions: create two channels with different drum banks and let them play together.

Q: How could I define my own drumkit?
A: DrumFlow has its initialization file - drumkits.ini. It's textual file with names of all drums in all XG banks. If your device supports user banks, you can manually edit this file.
