Using external softsampler for midi playback

Post by Himpoet »

Hello.
I've downloaded the EarMaster 5 demo and i'm truly impressed with it. I was wondering, however, if or how i could somehow use a different sound source for midi playback. I've been trying using to use the acoustic piano that comes with the Garritan Personal Orchestra, but my attempts to configure EarMaster's midi output to my interface's midi out and GPO's to midi in have not solved it. Am i missing something?
Thank you for your support.

Kind regards.

Hi Miguel,

If you can install a MIDI driver for the Garritan Personal Orchestra in Windows, then you can choose it from the list of MIDI out devices in the EarMaster Program settings.
Finally you can configure the sound profiles on the "MIDI instruments" tab, but note that the instrument names might be different unless Personal Orchestra uses the GM MIDI standard to number the sounds.

Best regards,
