No Sound on Playback

[Sherry C]

Howdy guys,

Thanks for that observation David. I've not been in that situation, nor has anyone (that I know of) reported the problem with playback slowing to a crawl if there is no device assigned to an internal MIDI port. I'll mess around with that (I have MapleMIDI installed) and report the problem.

Ian, with that in mind, do you have multiple MIDI devices set up on your machine, and might that have been the explanation? (eg. that the file had a device assignment that had been previously routed to an internal MIDI port which was not assigned when you tried to play the file.)

ttfn,
Sherry

No Sherry, no just the MS GS Wavetable Synth for playback on my computer. I don't use any external devices. Seems to be very spasmodic - sometimes it works straight away and then a delay for some reason. Could well be this slow old laptop of course.

Best wishes,
Ian
