Any ideas how to get the Sibelius First 7 Sounds Library downloaded and up and running?? I hate using just the basic MIDI options...

Not sure at what point you are looking at but under the File tab is an icon called configuration. Two options are presented as General MIDI and Sibelius First Sounds to choose.from on the ribbon header

The library should have downloaded with the program. If not, you may want to try and download it again. Then maybe do what RD suggests, although my "configuration" option is under the "Play" tab, not the "File" tab. (I've found over the past couple of years that, for some reason, the options available fall under different tabs on my version than on others, which can be a little frustrating when trying to follow instructions)

We run Traktor, but it's a midi controller, so any program that accepts midi. You just have to map it to your program.

Thanks anyway. My question had a typo in it. Is there a way to save a sequencer song to the SD card that includes a built-in rhythm on the A (System) tracks AND others on the B tracks?

I am not a professional so please take it for what it is worth. I believe it has 101 sounds or more, I have the instrument packed away for the moment. I really p I've the piano sounds fantastic to me. I really am not qualified to give you the best advise pertainf this but all the instruments in the keyboard are close to what I know. Hope that helps, you probably better off soulistening to it yourself. If I get a chance to pull it out I will make a video of the sounds. Can't make promises .

Did you eventually find a good solution for your application? I'm hoping to do essentially the same thing, except I had planned to use the headphone outputs of both the piano and laptop. I would be grateful to know if you got this to work, and any details you might be willing to share about the hookup. Thanks.

We have not connected to midi yet. We are just now starting to think about it. Program works great otherwise. My son bought it so that he could compose music. It only has eight staves so he felt that it was a little limiting but for the cost it was a bargain! Here's the main manual, with tutorials: http://www.finalemusic.com/UserManuals/SongWriter2012Win/Content/Contents.htm

If you don't use a program then its not going to work also if you do go to settings midi and a Q49 should be there and enable that.

you can play midi files from a usb flash, but they have to be midi format 0, you can load midi format 1 files and write them to one of the internal songs and then play them

It worked for me right out of the box, without any trouble, using PiMusicBox (http://www.woutervanwijk.nl/pimusicbox/) which is based on Raspbian, the standard OS for the Raspberry Pi. It sounds good, but I just bought a new sound system and I am finding that it is potentially the weak link, but it is by no means bad, just not an audiophile's choice. Also: I am not a linux guy. I am learning. I did no coding/tweaking/anything. This was recognized and played back with piMusicBox with zero setup.

This type of software is very intuitive. The learning curve is steep but making music is very rewarding. I would suggest getting the latest version. If cost is an issue I am sure that an older edition would be fine.

It has no onboard sounds, so you will have to run it through a midi sound module or a computer to use it live. It has both midi and USB outs.

I know you can get the editor and librarian here: http://www.korg.com/us/products/controllers/padkontrol/ . On Mac at least plugs right in Core Midi and you're on your way. Hope that helps!

it's a hardware sampler, meaning it doesn't use midi to control any sounds, it has it's own sounds. you could record into reason (or any DAW, I use Fl) using an interface.

Hey guys, so alexander miller was actually right. You can upgrade to version 10 for free you just need to follow the instructions alex gave above. I hastily returned it though without realizing. Yes, this is a good deal but I ended up getting just the mbox 3 without the full version of pro tools since I've yet to even open pro tools lol. (Still doing everything in ableton live)

Any soft with MIDI compare (cubase. logic. etc)Its mean you can use it not only with computer soft if you have MIDI connection and great desire to explore:)

Are you using the USB cable it came with? I had to get a separate midi cable, which I plugged into my sound card and it works just fine.
