MIDI TO AUDIO

[Michael E Esposti]

I'm having a hard time converting midi to audio not using a soft synth but an external device.

Can you give us more information as to how exactly you go about this.  Has it ever worked?

I do this al the time using an external SW1000XG card while being recorded into an audio track on Cakewalk by bandlab

The MIDI files I convert are specifically written with the SW1000XG card in mind.  The SW1000XG card is basically a Yamaha MU-100 series on a card.

This proceedure works perfectly every time for me.

You need to connect the external device's audio outputs to an audio input and record the audio.
