Hi Jorge,

I seem to have a problem with Synthmaker either not responding or crashing.

When I open SM it runs ok. I then change to another Synth and it seems to run Ok. If I change back to the example synth it seems either to not load at all or if it does it hangs on a note ( without me even inputing a note to play) or I cannot select my Midi input.

P.S. using Asio

Hi Jorge,

Further information to earlier:

I am running an Ego Sys M4U Midi interface, using the 4th Midi input/output. When I change from using one synth to the next the Midi interface on channel 4 becomes inactive and I cannot select it all as an input. If I change to channel 3 it seems to be ok 😮 I don't know if my interface is causing the problem ( it does seem to be ok when I use it to run my Nord Micro modular though) with the crashes or not. I did not seem to have any problems with other earler versions of SM, but I cannot say for sure if this has been a problem from earler versions because I have not really been playing much with SM due to other commitments.

Jorge,

I've uninstalled version 3b and re-installed version 3 instead. This seems to be ok. I then tried installing version 3a and the problem reappears... 😮 I have problems with trying to select Midi channel 4 if I change synths. I presume that there is some kind of Midi off message sent when changing synths ? Something is causing problems but I cannot pin it down exactly. By way of other information I am not running any other Midi channels at any time during this whole process.

This is all a bit vague, sorry.

Hi sequencer

Thanks a lot for your bug report, it is really helpful specially so soon after version 0.9.3b was uploaded. From your description it seems the problem was introduced with version 0.9.3a. I'll try to sort it, meanwhile I recommend you use verion 0.9.3.

I have had the error where midi input cannot be selected also usually after a crash in more than one version of SM when testing stuff, I found that installing the file again to the same location fixed it though.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
