Hi,

Notation products export a MIDI Type 1 file, which has all the instruments parsed out into separate tracks.

The following is from our KnowledgeBase at http://notation.com/helpdesk/admin/s...kbarticleid=71

You can fairly easy work around this problem by using a free MIDI utility that converts MIDI File Format Type 1 to Type 0, as follows:

1. Download the program named GN1.0 (file name gn1to0.zip)
from http://www.gnmidi.com/gnfreeen.htm

2. Unzip the gn1to0.zip file in a permanent directory
in which you wish to save the program.

3. Run the unzipped program named gn1to0.exe

4. In the GN1to0 program, use the File / Open command to
open the MIDI file that you saved in your MidiNotate or Notation product.

5. Click the '0' button in the toolbar of GN1to0. This will
immediately convert the MIDI file from Format Type 1 to
Format Type 0.

6. Use the File / Save As command to save the newly
converted file. Save it on a floppy disk if you want
to immediately carry the MIDI file to your MIDI keyboard.

Enjoy :)
