• Problem: There is no volume control for MIDI sound in the Volume Mixer window.
Solution: Use the hardware volume control. This is because the built-in synthesizer software does
not support the control.
• Problem: The sound cannot be turned off even if you set the Master volume control at minimum.
Solution: You still can hear some sound even though you have set the Master volume control at minimum.
