I hope it's ok posting a question about V5 here, I didn't know where else to go. I recently bought an amiga 600 and have managed to get hold of a bit of music software. I'm having a problem using multiple sounds in octaMED. I can load a sample of a kick for example and can play it through the tracker window. When I load another sample e.g. a snare drum, the new sample replaces the other. It also does this with the built in synth. It's as though I can only play back one sound at a time. Sorry if I being dumb and missing something but I didn't get any manuals with it and have been trying to work it out for myself.
Thanks

Hi,
Been years since I've used V5 but, if you're new to trackers here are a couple of possible solutions (if you're not then I'm teaching you to suck eggs and I don't know what the answer is).
- you need to load each sample into a different slot. From memory, shit+arrow left/right selects the slots between samples. Try loading one, then pressing shit+arrow right, then loading the second.
- one track on the tracker window = 1 exclusive sound channel, so if you play a second note/sample it will cancel the first.
Cheers, Steve
