Another newbie question on MIDI

sylvan · Jul 24, 2004, 04:19 PM

I have installed the kx drivers and followed the instructions. However there is no midi sound coming out of the card.

The midi default device in trhe audio panel is the kx Control SB0060 5.1 [2080]

I have an SBLIve 5.1 platinum with LiveDrive.

First of all must I download and load at least one sound font or should KX installation have included one by default ?

Or will the midi playback still work if there is no soundfont loaded in the soundfont panel in KX mixer ?

If midi playback should still work even if no soundfont is loaded in the kx mixer, what else could have gone wrong.

Help please

Wrong. Set this to kX Synth.

>>.... must I download and load at least one sound font
Yes.

>>..or should KX installation have included one by default ?
No.

>>Or will the midi playback still work if there is no soundfont loaded in the soundfont panel in KX mixer ?
No, not via the hardware Synth.
