As you pointed out, my soundcard wouldn't work with KX software, and I didn't want to get an internal soundcard.
But fortunately, your very clearly written instructions on how to use MidiYoke, VSTHost and VSTSynthFont to load my sound font worked a treat! The only slight nag is the delay in playback... but I can live with that.
Thanks very, very much from stopping me from dashing my head against the wall in frustration. Now I can resume the making of sweet music!
I hope someone here can help me out of this difficulty.
I recently upgraded to Windows 7, and I find that I can no longer use my external SB Live 24-bit soundcard with my soundfonts, because the SoundFont Bank Manager that I use to load soundfonts into the sound card can no longer run.
So I'm looking for a way out where I can load my soundfonts and can use them to continue to write music using NWC2.
The alternatives that I can see are:
- Get a new soundcard that has software that I can use to load my soundfonts;
- Get some new software that I can use to load my soundfonts into my SB Live soundcard;
- Get some new software which will enable me to load my soundfonts into any computer soundcard (including my computer's default card);
- Figure out a way of getting my existing soundcard to work on Windows 7.
Can anyone make any suggestions for any of the above categories? I have heard of SynthFont software; will it allow me to do any of the above?
