Hello and I hope I'm in the right forum for this one.
I've got a lot of semi-pro MIDI produced on PCs using Turtle Beach sound cards and QSE, Cakewalk and other sequencers. The more complex ones (with a lot of events and controls) always bog down and stop when I play them back on my eMac G4, 1 gig memory using the internal QuickTime synthesizer. Doesn't matter which software program I use to play the MIDI, I suppose it all uses the internal synth. What is the solution here? I want to be able to play and edit these MIDIs on the Mac. Thanks and regards! |

Ok,, logic here..
To figure out what the problem is would take some reseach... which I am not inclined to do at this time.. The root of the problems comes to the internal synth you are using.. The QuikTime synth is limited IMHO. I would suspect its midi recieve / send chanels are rather limited (I would guess around 16 pollyphony channels). Where a Creative Labs (Audigy) card (PC) is quite impressive.The synth engine for PCs with most Creative Labs sound cards can (and will) accept more midi data than that of QuikTime... I know for fellow mac users, that's a hard pill to swallow. But then again, that's why most of us stay away from cheezy QuikTime instruments, and sequencers.
