just wondering if anybody can help me out with any pink floyd files for standard trinity.. have been looking on the net but with no success, if anybody has any or knows of any sites where i can download them i'd be so grateful..
thanks in advance guys

For standard Trin, no. But there are a bunch of .mid (GM) files available in many places on the www. Most of Dark Side, Wall, Wish You Were Here and "best of" Floyd are posted out there.

You can GM-load your Trinity and make most of these work - or you can import them into a sequencer and re-track to reference Trinity programs.

thanks for the inf BB, new to the trinity and to midi.. any chance you could explain in laymans terms on how i would be able import into the trinity quite easily?.. is it just a matter of saving the file on floppy then loading that into the trinity as i believe the trinity doesn't have GM so how would i set it up to recognise the files and give a half decent sound?..

gear.. trinity, korg M1, berhinger 12 channel mixing desk, marshall 50watt amp, aria pro 2 335, epiphone acoustic, fender electro acoustic, zoom 505 mk 2 effects..
thanks again and most appreciated

Sound selection (program bank/number) data is embedded in sequences - And GM voices are all in an established order... which is how GM files find the same vocies regardless of maker.

So by suggesting you could "easily" use files from the net I meant that you could load the Trinity GM .pcg (programs) file that turns the Trinity into a GM compatible machine - something it is NOT when the factory set or your custom sounds are loaded. A quick search of previous threads should get you more info - I believe the GM .pcg can be found in the download section. [This is not the first time this topic has come up - check archived posts].

Once this is done the Trinity should be able to play .mid or .smf files right off the disc when you put it them in the Trin's disc drive.

The alternatives to this are to either edit sequence files on a computer to reference the correct factory sounds on the Trinity - you'll have to resolve NOT to move your sounds around once you do this edit - or try to do the same on the trinity itself and then save as a new .mid file with the corrected settings.

The actual button push and procedure should be in the manual. If you use a PDF version you can search for "importing midi files" and find what you need.
