Track Control
The Track Control effect contains three ready-made control panels for adjusting
parameters on a GS or XG compatible MIDI device. The Roland GS and Yamaha XG
protocols are extensions of the General MIDI standard, allowing for more sounds and
better control of various instrument settings. If your instrument is compatible with GS
or XG, the Track Controls effect allows you to adjust sounds and effects in your
instrument from within your host application.
