Re: PowerTracks and settings

2003-11-16 by Carol Beigel

I checked out an identical installation today, and think I may have another
idea.  In Power Tracks, choose Options from the top menu, then Midi Devices.
If you do NOT see Yamaha CBX driver you have not turned it on.  To do so,
click Start, Programs, then the Yamaha CBX driver.  By default this driver
installs to Com 1.  You probably already have something else that is using
Com1, so choose another com port that is not greyed out.

 You should also be able to see if the Yamaha CBX driver is installed by
clicking on the Control Panel, then Multimedia devices, then the MIDI tab.
It should be one of the choices, if so, click on it.

Since the midi files are playing on your computer, the data is being routed
to your computer soundcard instead of thru the CBX driver.  Even the Windows
Media player will play midi files on your piano if the Yamaha CBX driver is
chosen.

Hope this helps!
