How do I set up a midi track with a vst instrument?
-
Somehow the laptop's master volume had gone to 0.

I put some events in a piano roll, hearing them play as I did so. I then shut piano roll view, and midi went silent. Imports are silent, too.

ALL my and many other tutorials about midi cover this. You won't get far just guessing how things work.
I will have a look through them. Thank you.

There are several ways to add soft synths to a project.
One method is described in the To create Instrument tracks section on this page
As noted above there are a few tutorials on MIDI on Youtube.
Adding synth plug-ins to an audio FX bin is a very old way of adding synths to a project.
As a rule, this should only be used when the synth operates on audio data (ex. a vocoder).
In normal use, most synths are added using the Add menu mentioned in the link above, dragged from the plug-in browser and dropped into the project (on empty space in the track view not on a track), using the Insert from the main menu or the synth rack view.
Thank you. I have played a midi track through my chosen guitar synth.

Why not load a vst instrument and drag the midi into it?
Check out tutorials to learn how to accomplish what you are trying to do.That won't work, either. I can't find tutorials on this problem. Effects will load into midi tracks, but instruments won't. Midi instruments load into audio tracks, but there is no sound if they are switched on. Instruments work on midi tracks in another of my DAWs.

Thank you. I was trying to load a clip. I worked it out, but still have the problem as in the edit above.

I can't get it to load VST instruments into a midi track. Audio VSTs work.
How do we play Cakewalk through headphones?
in Q&A

Cackwalk won't play through headphones. Every other software will send to the headphones, but this one sends to my laptop's speakers whether or not I plug in headphones. I've tried disabling the speakers in Win11. What have I got to do?
