Default Re: Connecting GPO5 to Composer 3 under Win10 x64

Hi,


If you're using the free LoopBe1 you may need to upgrade to LoopBe30.
See the User Forum post at https://www.midinotate.com/vb-forum/...ead.php?t=2745 for what may be a similar case.


The basic set up is:


  1. Setup LoopBe - if you have LoopBe1, you'll only be able to access 16 channels, and you won't have feed-back control. LoopBe30 gives you essentially 30 "devices" at 16 channels each, with the option of shutting things off (or not) with looping/feedback.
  2. Load the instruments you want in the Aria Player and note their channels. If you want more than 16 instruments, you'll need to run multiple instances of the Aria Player, and connect each one of those to a separate "
  3. In Composer, have a look at the MIDI QuickSetup to see which "Internal MIDI" you have listed there. With LoopBe30 you can set it up to have a single device, or any number up to 30. Multiples will look like "1. Internal MIDI", "2. Internal MIDI", etc.
  4. In Composer, in the Staff Setup, set each instrument/staff in the song to the channel and device of the matching instrument in your loaded GPO5 Aria player.
Here is an example of my own setup:

If you have all that set up, then things should play. Again, please have a look at the thread linked above.


ttfn,
Sherry
