Soundfont note dropout

The Absorbant · Jan 5, 2004, 04:03 AM

I experience note dropout (notes not being played) when using my 58 MB home-brewed Drumkit From Hell soundfont. It's worked fine with LiveWare on this and several other machines! Please help as I use this soundfont regularly and I love the other features of kX, I'd hate to have to go back to LiveWare because of this tiny stupid problem..

Please assist! Thanks for your help/E...

Edit: Seems to occur mostly in a "many notes in a short time" scenario with both this soundfont and the 8MB GM/GS Creative one.

I also have experienced that drum notes dropout.

It occured when I used a soundfont with VSTi on Cubasis Sequencer.

I think what SoundFont/Sequencer you use is completely secondary, I'd say this is entirely a drivers issue since it works fine with the exact same SoundFont/Sequencer using the LiveWare drivers...

With 3537rc1, notes still dropped out.
And i found it peculiar that with some certain soundfonts, 64 sound channels got used up during MIDI playback, but no notes dropped. But other fonts, usually large fonts, drop notes when no more available channel when playing back.
