Audio Editing Software Windows
I have no sound when playing midi in audio editing software?
I can play midi sounds on Windows Media Player and other programs like that, but when I open midi files on Cakewalk Sonar or other sound editing programs, I have nothing. I try to find devices from those programs, but the list is empty. Any ideas?
I’m having this problem in both my PC with XP and in the one with Vista.
That sounds good. How do I do that?
MIDI by itself is just information and not sound. Windows Media Player essentially has a built-in software instrument that plays the sounds from your MIDI file. When you load it into one of the higher-end programs, you will normally have to load an instrument to make sound. The instrument will read the MIDI information and turn it into sound, but just importing a MIDI file into most recording software won’t do anything aside from place the notes on a MIDI grid or piano roll.
Additional:
Go up to Insert>Soft Synths> (pick an instrument).
If the Soft Synth Options opens, select “simple instrument track” and click OK.
The Instrument track will open. From the Input bar, click it and select your MIDI Keyboard. (This will just make sure that your MIDI keyboard, if you are using one, controls the instrument too)
Now you can import your MIDI file into the instrument and the notes that are laid out will trigger the instrument to play. If you don’t like the instrument, change the settings in the instrument or change it to a different instrument.
Definitely take time to peruse the manual. Don’t bother sitting down and reading the whole thing in one shot, in my opinion that rarely works. Instead, make music and when you come to a roadblock or a menu that you can’t find, check out that specific area in the manual.
Cheers
