Default No sound.

I have imported a MIDI file into a new session. It appears in a new track. However, on playback it does not play. I only hear the click track.

Thanks for any help.

Default Re: No sound.

MIDI needs a reference to play. A MIDI file, as does a MIDI track, does not contain audio.

You need to open a virtual instrument for the MIDI file to play.

Midi is basically a modern day music box, the midi track is your roller with the bumps on it, the VSTi/sound module is the steel comb with the tuned teeth, your sequencer play button is the wind-up spring.

Man, I'm gettin old...!!
