MIDI stopped working in Music Studio

Hello, world! I'm a new Samplitude Music Studio 2014 user. Everything installed great and was working fine for the first month or so. Then, while working one day, the software "hung" and I had to kill it via the task manager. Ever since then, midi samples aren't working.

I can't hear the samples in the Soundpool, nor can I drag them into any track.

I tried to repair the installations of "essentialFX_Suite_DE_EN_130716_11-37_1_0_0_0" and "SMS2014_ObjectSynths_INT_130716_16-22_1_0_0_0" - not knowing what I was doing, but neither fixed the issue.

I have a different software (Cakewalk Sonar) that can do this just fine - even after the Magix crash, so it must be something in Magix - rather than in the machine.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated! THANK YOU!

Assuming you did register with Magix, you recieved a license code P2-XXXX-XXXX and so on. Revisist download website and re-download your program and other offered features. Using Task Manager may have corrupted the program beyond repair by you. Good luck

Thanks for responding! Yes, I did register. Really!? Reinstall the entire thing? Yikes. Would I need o UNINSTALL first?

Any other suggestions before I do that would be appreciated. I think the installation is a two-hour process.

Try resetting the program to its default settings - File, Settings, Reset . . .

If that fails then consider uninstalling, running the Magix cleaner the re-installing.
