Audio and MIDI files coexisting?
Posted: Tue Oct 07, 2003 4:16 pm
Hi, I'm having problems making MIDI and audio clips coexist in Cakewalk Music Creator 2002. I believe that the problem revolves around this option, but I'm not sure:
Options > Audio > Advanced >
"Always Use MME Interface, Even When WDM Drivers Are Available."
When I select this option, MIDI works just great (in particular, I'm working with the Session Drummer). The problem is that selecting this option somehow knocks out my audio recording ability! I'll hit 'record', and suddenly the audio recording feature that worked perfectly before doesn't respond at all.
When I go back and deselect the option, my audio is 'fixed', but then my MIDI doesn't work! I get this window saying "No MIDI Outputs Selected", and then when I go to select a MIDI device, the only one listed is "Microsoft MIDI Mapper", and it won't allow me to select that. Re-selecting the option fixes the problem, but then audio doesn't work again. It keeps going on and on and on...
If you have any suggestions, PLEASE let me know!! I really am stuck and have no idea where to go with this one.
Thank you!!
P.S. - I'm trying to set up the Session Drummer to play and then record myself on guitar and vocals over it, if that helps.
