Problem With MIDI In

Post by amarein »

I just downloaded the trial version of Ear Master and find I cannot get my MIDI keyboard to work. I am running Windows 7 Professional. In the Tools Menu, EarMaster Pro recognizes my M-Audio Oxygen 61 as the MIDI-in device, and the Microsoft MIDI Mapper as the MDI-out device. However, MIDI in (F-11) is not available in the Answer Input Menu. As a result, there is not sound from the keyboard. Otherwise, the program seems to be working as advertised. I would really like to be able to use the keyboard for input since I want to get better at jazz improvisation. Any suggestions?

Hi Amarein,

MIDI In should be available for most of the exercises. You can toggle it on/off at the bottom right of the screen. A green circle should light up each time the program receives a MIDI input.

The only places where MIDI In is not available are Interval Comparison and Rhythm Dictation/Correction.

Thanks for your help. It turns out everything was working and I just didn't know it. Duh.

Yes, there is a definately a bug. Midi stops to work if you uncheck the piano view. Then if you check again it doesn't work anymore. :(
