GRAPH GRID ORIENTATION
----------
On the Left of the Musical Sequencer and progressing down:
Graph Grid 1 is for the first Instrument Soundfont SFZ Sampler.
Graph Grid 2 is for the second SFZ Instrument Soundfont SFZ Sampler.
Graph Grid 3 is for the third SFZ Instrument Soundfont SFZ Sampler.

INSTRUMENTS GRAPH GRID MUSICAL NOTE TUNING
The three instrument graph grids are one octave each beginning at Middle C Note
from the bottom of the graph and proceeding upwards in semitone steps.
----------
----------
On the Right of the Musical Sequencer:
Graph Grid 4 is for the Drumkit Soundfont SFZ Sampler (sampler is on bottom of the graph).
The Drumkit Graph Grid has the 'midimap' listing for each percussion instrument on the left side.
NOTE:
Drumkit Percussion Instruments are identified by their respective midimap
(*number) = piano keyboard musical note.
This tuning is based upon the GM (general midimap) reference.
Starting from the bottom and progressing upwards the Drumkit Graph Grid is 'tuned' from
(*27) = Eb0 to (*88) = E5
The description for each individual percussion instrument on the left is based upon this.

DRUMKIT MUSICAL NOTE TUNING
Different drumkit sfzs can vary in tuning for their individual instruments.
This will show non-matching instrument name/tuning on the graph.
Refer to the midimap reference for each different drumkit sfz for assistance.
DRUMKIT SFZ MIDDLE C CAN VARY FROM C3 TO C5 OR EVEN AN ARBITRARY PIANO KEYBOARD NOTE.
USE THE SAMPLER OCT/SEMI (OCTAVE/SEMIITONE) 'DETUNER' TO COMPENSATE.
----------

==========
LOADING SOUNDFONT SFZ FILES
Compozatron utilizes Soundfont SFZ files for the three instrument graph grid samplers (to the left)
and the drum graph grid sampler (to the lower right).
NOTE: It is necessary to 'load' these Soundfont SFZ file at startup.
If Soundfont SFZ files are not already loaded ...
For each sampler chosen, select the 'load' option and open the "pwesfzs" folder included in the soundfonts zip file.

Instrument soundfont sfzs are in the pwemidisfzs subfolder.

Drumkit soundfont sfzs are in the pwedrmsfzs subfolder.
Stereo Drumkit soundfonts sfzs are in the pwedrmstsfzs subfolder.

Instrument Graph Grid Sequencer Soundfonts:
(1.) 64 Synth Brass 2 C#4.sfz
(2.) 41 Violin F5.sfz
(3.) 40 Synth Bass 2 A2.sfz

Thanks, I'm checking it out

Preset 1 sounds cool, but I'm having a problem where, once started, it simply will NOT shut off. In this case, I've loaded the exe, selected my MIDI keyboard, turned MIDI input 'on', turned Key Lock 'off', hit one key: it plays until terminated, no matter what I do. Same for the FSM running withing Flowstone.

A tiny bit of operational instruction would be nice.
