Issues testing 2014 Premium edition

john-e74 wrote on 4/19/2014, 8:59 AM

Just downloaded the trial and the latest patch but seem to have some issue:

"The following vst plugin could not be loaded: Vita"

No sound from onscreen keyboard (by mouse or PC keyboard keys)

Instrument editor will not load.

Been searching for solutions but to no avail...

Hi,

I don't know how far you can get with the trial version. There are are a lot of additional files and instruments to be downloaded after program installation. See the following link:

http://www.magix.info/us/more-soundpools.knowledge.1087633.html?sort=newest&limit=100#ca982230

For the on-screen keyboard you may have to activate a midi track first by clicking on the REC button on a track, twice to get MIDI REC.. If there is no instrument, click on the + at the left of the track info where you armed the REC button and select an instrument. Then the on-screen keyboard should work. If there are no instruments to load, then see above, they will need to be downloaded. The Vita instruments are part of the additional downloads.

There is a demo, but it too has to be downloaded as part of the free synthesizer and sound packages.

Additional information, in the program settings (shortcut P), under Audio/Midi, Audio playback, select the Wave driver to be able to hear the on-screen keyboard. Then first click on the keyboard with the mouse and it should play a note, plus you will see the corresponding keyboard keys appear on on the on-screen keyboard. M will be on middle C, I believe.

Thanks John,

I seem to be having some success after cganging the Wave drive, downloading the free extra, and the update.

The update did fail on one item, but I have enough to test for a bit.

Good to hear that you have advanced with this.

What are you planning or hoping to do with MMM?

In case you want to record to it, you can only record to one track at a time. Music Studio allows simultaneous multi-track recording.
