How to Clear Patch in Tracks Window

Post by laryan »

Hi.

I'm using DP8 windows version on a win7 pc. I'm working with MIDI tracks imported to DP8 and using a Motif XF8 as a tone generator for this project.

In the tracks window I accidentally selected a patch number which I am trying to clear and cannot find any way to do it. I see the 'clear default patch' in the mini menu, but this does not clear the patch selection in DP8. I don't see anything related to this in the manual and I can't find a way to clear that field to a blank default. Checked the Event List and don't see any patch selection there to delete.

I'm embarrassed to ask such a fundamental question, but I can't find a solution. Would anyone have any suggestions to share?

Thanks.

Hmmmm... That Clear Default Patch should've done it. You did select the target track(s) and then applied the command, correct?
Mac Mini Server i7 2.66 GHs/16 GB RAM / OSX 10.14 / DP 9.52
Tascam DM-24, MOTU Track 16, all Spectrasonics' stuff,
Vienna Instruments SUPER PACKAGE, Waves Mercury, slaved iMac and Mac Minis running VEP 7, etc.
