[HLUG] MIDI?????

[David Shorthouse]

Hi All just to clarify my system.

I have an AMD Athlon 800 With on board sound(Micro-star International
ES1371(audioPCI-97)
The program that loads up when I open a midi file is kmidi I have also tried
the other software that came with the OS doesn't do anything.. I will try as
suggested loading in sound fonts see what happens & keep you all posted.

Many thanks for the quick reply all..

Cheers

Dave..

P.S I am not a big fan of midi files Although if you use Sybase on a windows
Box they can sound stunning....

what sound card is this? Which program are you trying to use midi from? The
yast sound card module has the option to load midi soundfonts from the
soundcard CD which you may need to do.

Try running kaconnect and connect the program you're using to the midi synth
device for your sound card driver.
