play_list syntax
"play_list_01" this is the coll file where the soundfiles are defined to be played as the following :
program_change*1000 + midinote | the file name | the level in dB
as example the following line "1038 , mes_003.aif 6;"
means the file "mes_003.aif" is trigger when we are in program 1 (*1000) and play the D1 (38) note (1000 + 38 = 1038), the level is +6dB.
You can test sounds using the graphic keyboard in the "miditester" subpatcher.
